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

It's not what you think. Something small. Something fun. Something different.
im guessing a few new gold skins will drop around. As long as i get some nice daggers im happy ^^.

NCAA's + St. Patty's Day = very little time to play GW. I'll try to squeeze in some play time. Maybe I'll get lucky.

I guess this is a weekend full of spam Rit and BoA Sin all over RA and TA. Well, this is still more sense than double Champ points weekend.

My bet's on little pots of gold dotted around the instanced maps. Gotta run around looking for them.

I'm basing this on the fact that it's supposed to be a PvE reward and gold, for the most part, is only useful in PvE.

So I think that'll be part of it, by the sounds of Gaile there'll be some other neat stuff too.

My guess is it is some sort of leprechaun tonic or green aura producing ale.

Please not another tonic... we already have the elf one which is darn near close enough lol! And I don't know if I can take all the leet elves running around town again.

I know Gaile said it's not a "minipet," but maybe it's a "minipet that picks up your loot." A mini leprechaun that picks up after you ... c'mon, how can you not love that!?

Very curious to see what it is...

Well, she already said it's not a new mini, so that' definitely out. My guess is Green Beer with a nice green swirl effect when drunk.

My warrior needs to drink more so I'm hoping I'm right. Guess we'll all find out tomorrow at noon PDT.

I think it'll be a collector's item, which'll give something nice.

Spelling might be a bit off.

LOL Fit Finlay is sending his Little Bastard in game to chase everyone round and snarl. Then hide under the skirts of Mirage Ibogas.

I hope greens become overfarmed and become dirt cheap, because I make my money off something else (kind of obvious).

I think this is subliminally meaning "2x drop rate of greens" or "3x drop rate of greens". But thats purely my speculation.

The Unique thing is a mini Green boss that is lvl 7 (for luck) and has a auto speed boost of +50% and you must chase him around. He drops a green marshmellow that removes DP and gives you a sugar rush. Lucky people get a pot of gold. I wish.

Well I thought we were gonna earn double lucky points or something. I'd would like to blame people for misleading titles, but it's really just telling me that I need to read more.

As with anything ANet, they always hope to suprise. Since the Canthan New Year, I won't be getting my hopes up. But we'll just see how it goes.

I really hope they don't do something in the spirit St. Patrick's day, though...

Some of my thoughts for something different:

- As was just mentioned, shamrocks that act as tokens (since they have luck associated with them, and are pretty easy to slap together from the last event) - or pots of gold, leprechaun gold coins, etc.

- A leprechaun hat

- A leprechaun tonic (similar to the elf & candy corn tonics & disguises; probably most work involved since it's a full skin)

- A shillelagh weapon item (similar to candy cane weapons)

Note Gaile: if it's not any of these things, they'd always be fun in future years!

Hmm... Gail said he was mistaken..... Methinks he was referring to the uniques..... after all, the word "unique" is in the announcement......
hopefully this means all mobs of X class will drop a random green from one of the bosses of that class in that zone. *starts farming dervish mobs near dwayna*

What's this "he" nonsense? I'm happy to break it to you that there are a lot of actual females in this game.

When I asked about the nature of the items, my small friend merely winked and spoke of intoxicating pints of Shamrock Ale and unusual objects called "Four-Leaf Clovers," which he proclaimed would offer great benefits to an adventuring party, and perhaps even give those who use one an extra bit o' luck!

The four-leaf clovers sound like morale boosts...

Or lucky aura of which I am still sure that nobody knows how it works lol.

BTW, is there any proof of what a lucky aura does?
