Halloween in GWEN?

Is it even confirmed that there's going to be a Halloween event? I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, which is why I ask. They usually don't announce them until much closer to the time. The Dragon Festival for example was only announced a week before it actually started, no one knew if there were going to bother doing it again. But Halloween is a yearly event, they've done it for the past two years, so I don't see why they wouldn't this year.

Ah, I see. Well I hope they do have one (seeing how they are currently "busy with GW2"). If they have one, I wonder if it'll be a copy of last year's. Just have to wait and see I suppose.

Yeah, i bet anet will find something creative this year, since its not the same week as a new game. /endsarcasm?

I hope they do something cool.

2 separate events on the same continent?

no way

Lions is already set up and ready to go same as the last 2 years I remind you that Elona is aregion...

Charr Homelands+Ascalon, Shiverpeaks, Kryta+Maguuma+Tarnished Coast, CrystalDesert+Desolation, Vabbi, Kourna and Istan are all in the same continent: Tyria.

So Kamadan and Ascalon are in the same region.
Since GW:EN is not the same 'campaing'... ding. We have it. All of them deserve Halloween.

Cantha has Lunar New Year and Dragon festival, so it can be left out (with the exception of gaming arenas and worldwide drop traders, if any, of course).

I see the OP has Nightfall, which is great because it's easiest from Kamadan - since you can only have a 4-man party, the enemies in the mini-dungeon are really easy. Takes me about 5 minutes to get from Kamadan->Boreal Station, then maybe 15 minutes to walk up to EotN.

Unfortunately, though, EotN is no longer a "city" - it only has the icon of an outpost. The three cities are Gunnar's Hold (Norn, about 20 minutes from EotN), Doomlore Shrine (Charr, an hour or so from Gunnar's Hold), and Rata Sum (Asura, I'd guess 1.5 hours from Gunnar's). Since all other events take place in cities (LA, Kamadan, Shing Jea) I think it much more likely that *if* Anet decides to expand the holiday event to EotN, it would be to one of those, probably Gunnar's because it's the easiest to get to. Thanks you guys! That's what I wanted to know.

I'll farm the collector item like crazy, I need some Vial of Absinthe and Witch's Brew. Ha! I got 8 stacks of Orr Emblems in my storage waiting for the holidays! muahahah, and all that.

I'm not really sure how I feel about having it in three (or more for that matter) cities throughout the game.

On one hand, it would be neat to have such a widespread celebration. And of course, keeping in mind that they have different styles of decorations for cities, it would be neat to see what a Norn, Asuran, or even an Ascalonian Halloween celebration would look like.

However, It would seem like a bit of an effort to have to travel to three different cities in one day to get the different hats and celebrate with King Thorn. Especially since my time on Halloween will be limited, what with class that evening and having to dress up as death to scare the neighborhood children.

And think of the poor Mad King. His arms would be so tired.

Also, if they do hold it in an EotN city, I hope that they will give plenty of warning for us casual players that need a few days to finish quests and get where we need to go.
