Is there any reason as to why they're not available from collectors? I'm just curious to see if anything has been stated about this yet.

They're adding new stuff daily. They obviously don't want you to have those items yet

So, what was added today? I haven't been able to go and have a look plus there's no updates on gw.com.

Might have been the Spiked Eggnog today (From Dwayna collectors in Elona and Grenth Collectors in Tyria)

Now that we now what Rainbow Candy Canes are for (Morale Boost for Party), has anyone seen anything about when they will be available, where you can get them, what will the cost be (shards, glob of ecto, etc.)?

Someone direct me to where we know what Rainbow CC's are used for? I cant find this info anywhere but everyone seems to "know their use" but again I can find no documentation.

*edit* *places nub stamp on forehead.

I checked wiki again and apparently Gaile revealed it in game.

Could be given out during the Finale by Dwayna/Grenth (like how they gave items out last year for "bribes"). Have wintersday gifts been added yet?

I hope we can trade our candy cane shards for Rainbow Candy Canes.
What else would people do with their candy cane shard stacks?
Buy all available weapons and fill up their huge and never ending inventory spaces??

Last year during the finale, it was basically about 30 minutes worth of stages, where every 5 minutes or so, presents would appear on the ground next to Dwayna or Grenth. I would guess those are the winter gifts they're referring to. I thought I saw something somewhere that suggested the rainbow candy canes wouldn't be available until then either but I can't seem to find it.

And to the question about what else people would do with shards, I remember salvaging them into glittering dust which at this time last year was a really hot item in Droks and you could make about 50-100k in a week selling crafting materials (materials with an s, not just dust). I haven't done that in a long time though and I would imagine with factions and nightfall, there's new armor and new mods that have probably killed off the market for most of those.
