3 full Halloween armor skins completely unobtainable

[Davtachri.5862]

Hello there,

Isn't it strange that there is no way of obtaining these armour skins? With most event skins there is some way of obtaining them after the event has ended. But there is no way we can unlock these skins now. I think it would make sense for the recipes or the crafted armour to not be account bound or that you can buy the recipes from a vendor, even after the event has ended. I mean SAB's vendor sticks around why can those from Halloween? I think it's kind of pointless to make 3 new armour skins (yes I know they are based on existing armours) and then make them completely unobtainable after the event has ended.

You'll just need to come back next year :D

It's marketing.

You should have bought em during Halloween ( also, there's always a countdown for every shop items ).

We had plenty of time to unlock a full set via achievements, and also going to the vendor to buy the recipes for each armor piece. It was tedious, but it could have been done. You can now look up the recipes, and just save up til next Halloween!

If Halloween was a short event I would totally agree with you. Instead it's an epic event that happens for a good period of time each year!

With SAB; the currency and skins are all accountbound. Candy Corn can, technically, be gathered all year.

 

It would be nice if they were availble all year but I suspect there would be less urgency to play the event to death during Mad King's Eve.

Not really; it's consistent with previous festivals.

* Mad King's Memoires and its various sequels was only obtainable during Halloween 2012-3 (and now, finally 2017). It still can't be obtained 11 months of the year.

* Winter's Presence can only be crafted outside of Wintersday if one first completes the necessary achievements during Wintersday

 

In contrast, the Lunatic Court armors can be crafted all year round; all one had to do was purchase the recipes during the festival, for a total of 21 corn cobs.
