Curse

Hm... if we get any drops for valentine, probably we are getting just Chocolates and Champagne:
- Chocolates: Sweet. The typical chocolate bonbons. Sugar rush 10 minutes, (+2 Sweet Tooth).
- Mature Barradin's Champagne: Alcoholic beverage. (+5 grade of drunkenness)
- Champagne Popper. Visual effect item. (Nothing)

But why not other things too, like, for example:
- Choco-cake: +5% Morale Bonus party-wide. (+1 Sweet Tooth.)
- Choco-cookies: Gain 10% Morale Bonus. (+1 Sweet Tooth)

- Valentine candy: Sweet. They icon would be a bunch of heart-shaped candy pilled up, and when you use one, the characters shouts a line: "I wuv you!", "Be Mine!", "You leave me Breathless!", "I want U babe!", etc... And a one random effect happens for you and nearest party member each time you use one of those candies. (+2 Sweet Tooth). Possible effects in the list of random effects could be:
L - Restoring Love (Full HP, Full energy, lose all conditions and hexes, recharge all skills) No effect icon since it's instant.
L - "First Kiss" (Lose all DP, gain 10% morale bonus) No effect icon since it's instant.
L - Shield Heart (+20 armor for 10 minutes.) Green/Blue.
L - Power of Love (+4 HP regen for 10 minutes.) Red/White.
L - Charmed (+10 Energy for 10 minutes) Purple/Black.
L - Invigorating Love (+100 HP for 10 minutes) Yellow/Orange.
L - Love Experience (Triple XP during 10 minutes) Green/White
L - Unstoppable Love (Immunity to all speed(move, cast and attack) decrease effects for 10 minutes) (White/Blue)
L - First Sight Love (+25% Increased move, cast and attack speed for 10 minutes) (Pink/White)
Of course, if there are no party members within earshot, you would just gain the 2 Sweet Tooth points, and no effect happens.
Each effect would have its unique effect icon, and each one would look like a different colored heart with a love message.

- Bouquet: Visual Effect item. Target a party member and use it. Removes 15% Death Penalty from target other party member and gives 2% MB to you. Just a visual effect if you do not target a party member.

Hey, why all items must be for self use? XDDD

I think it would be better if Event drops had unique special effects, and not the usual ones we have. They would be better if they were fun, like the +1 treasure hunter when picking Golden Eggs.

Do you have any other idea of possible thing that could work related to Valentines? Visual effects, Valentine-related drinks, valentine relade sweets...?

I like the "First Kiss" one, if these were actual drops, and were avaliable for a week around Valentines day (not just the day) I'd farm them for my boyfriend, as he's going for Sweettooth and I'm romantic like that

Game Master Guru · Feb 02, 2008, 03:25 PM // 15:25

i like the idea of Charmed And First Kis thats pretty cool

MithranArkanere · Feb 02, 2008, 03:28 PM // 15:28

Well, they won't be separate items. They would be random effects of the candy.
Just like the random effects of the lunar fortunes. Otherwise they would be a bit too much as they put them, XD.

I love the whole idea of Valentine's Day drops.

I hate the whole idea of Valentine's Day drops. It's not even a real holiday.

I've seen you really have nie suggestions and ideas, I wouldnt mind having u as ANET admin. \o/

MithranArkanere · Feb 02, 2008, 06:16 PM // 18:16

Actually, it's both my job and my hobby 'to have ideas'. It's just a bit hard to filter them out without the help of other people brainstorming, but I'm far from the leel required to be part of a Staff like Anet's, XDDDD.

I've though of another one:

*Self-wrapping: Visual effect item. You get cute red wrapping ribbon on your head that stays there for 10 seconds.

Hey! Not better gift of love than giving yourself as a present! XDD

Like the idea and the "love hearts" candy

It was a cross-reference.

[A heart +4 (4 pieces) Zelda] + [Power of Love song] + [Vanguard Effect(Red skill icons)]

Forgot to tell, each random effect would have an icon with a different color, featuring different colored hearts:

Imagine someone that gets a lot of those and uses them until he gets one effect of each (may take a lot of time and candy since it's random)

I would pay to see a screenshot of that, XDD.

Although I HATE the concept of the holiday of Valentine's Day in RL, I'm all for excuses to get more stuff for Sweet Tooth.

Although, I wouldn't hold my breath for it happening. Keep in mind Chinese (aka Canthan) New Year is coming up (probablly this weekend). Two holiday weekends back to back isn't likely).

genofreek · Feb 04, 2008, 04:25 AM // 04:25

I would never unsign more ways to get sugar and booze. Besides, I can give it to guildies and stuff. <3
