Starting at Noon PST on Friday, March 16, PvP players will earn double Faction and Gladiator Points in Arenas. Plus, with a bit o' luck, PvE players may find a unique drop or two in missions and explorable areas. These opportunities will run through 11:59 p.m. PDT on Sunday, March 18.

I love how all the good weekend events fall on the weekends I can't play. :'(
Double faction/glad points is good to me anyway.

Oh Noes! The 'burbs!

I wonder if it'll be some sort of silly themed item?
Wish they'd do this during the week once in a while. I get more uninterrupted gaming time during the week. Can't do anything on the weekend unless I make my husband go somewhere without me.

Seeing as how fitting it would be with the theme, I guessing greens. If they are special greens then, wow they will be worth alot. Whatever they are, I hope they are Max, otherwise I'd just toss them. If they are just regular greens I'd expect the prices on many normally valuable greens to drop. Hold onto you greens Brokers of GW. I for one will be in the arenas.

I hope these drops are related to St. Patrick's Day.

Unique drops in missions/explorable areas in GENERAL, as in a Charr could drop a Victo's? XD

...or do they mean, say, increased chances of greens dropping from the usual suspects.

This is one of those weeks where I'm all about getting some extra cash in GW, I must know more!

I like how they've separated the "PvP" and "PvE" players in their announcement. Or rather, acknowledged how much the community segregates itself.

This game's become far too schizophrenic, I hope they come up with something better in the sequel.

I'm so glad I have all weekend for a chance to get this unique item. It starts noon PST Friday, which is like 6am Saturday here. So I have time to go get incredibly drunk Friday night (my birthday is on Saturday, so I need to get wasted at some point), sleep in till 10 or so, and then jump on and try and find the uniques... Guildwiki should have information on them by then, or someone on here will have posted something, and I'll decide whether or not they're worth getting.

Could it be chests? Unique Drops out of chests?

Is it in certain areas that the unique items will drop?

....Too many questions....

Maybe unique means new new stuff that we haven't seen before.

LOL, maybe there are really two games here. That should resolve your concerns about schizophrenia.

No more mini's! Give us a dumb green hat that we'll wear for 2 days then forget about, but please not another mini pet! And by the way, the unique item is going to be beer. My guess.

I'm interpreting "unique" as "2x Green drops, but we're being ambugious so you actually play some PvE."

Well I just hope "unique" really does mean "unique". I'm looking for my very own things that nobody else has. Maybe my own 100^50 req 7 half moon.

If unique still means just one more of the same green thing, it won't be much to write home about will it.

And have you ever been to the pub and bought a beer and then pranced around saying its unique when everyone else is drinking exactly the same thing. I hope not lol. Even on St Patties.

Ahhhhh, yes, the lucky weekend. And I'd forgotten. *cough*

Nothing to do with the Lucky title. Nothing to do with Uniques.

It's not what you think. Something small. Something fun. Something different.
