Just a thought... Maybe the mask you get depends on your Profession, like the Wicked Hat depends on your Gender.

That would make no sense. There is no necromancer, ranger, monk, assassin, ritualist, paragon or dervish monsters. There are 3 warriors (Torment Claws and Chaos Wurms are technically warriors), 2 mesmers, 2 Elementalists

Someone needs to camp out late tonight to see what we do/do not get. So the rest of us can be prepared token wise.

This mask is pretty cool, I'd much rather have this one than the demon mask we get.



I mean it doesn't even cover up your face, not much of a mask. I think this has to be one of the only masks that looks bad and if it doesn't even dye it'll be even worse.

Well I'm prepared...bought another 4 stacks for each of my accounts...so 5 stacks for each account (10 stacks total). If there are multiple masks then I'll get my 5 favorites on each account...if no...well...I'll have plenty of firewater

Maybe different towns get different stuff again like Wintersday, I did see festival game npcs for dragon arena and rollerbeetle in Kamendan (sp). I wish Anet would post stuff like this, on Wintersday I was like damn I just got a different version of the Santa hat but then the next day I found out Kamendan got Freezie caps and I was like damn it. The gw site did'nt even say anything about it so I just went on, got santa then logged off.
Then again kamendan and lion's arch isn't decorated and this stuff is really just a Canthan holiday.

I like to be at the first finale for festivals. I've been able to attend the first Dragon Festival, second Wintersday, and New Years finales in the same district as Gaile. I might have also been there for the Halloween one, but I forget.

Those are hats and not masks. Masks cover your face.

Masks do not need to cover your entire face to be a mask.

Ok... I still don't like it, I'm entitled to my opinion whether it's a mask or a hat idc it still doesn't look that good IMO.

No, they did exactly what he said. Those are literally the heads chopped off of monsters, superimposed on NPCs, and called "masks". The Demon Mask isn't simply a chopped up Chaos scythe, they made some tailored adjustments to stylize.

Most notably, the Demon Mask is suitable for all types of faces and body sizes. I don't think they have made such adjustments to the other "masks".

I must say I'd have preferred the Grasp of Chaos one.... It looks much cooler than the actual one we received.

As the OP said, a choice would have been nice too!

Doesen't matter to me, after having optained the lion mask, its pretty hard 2 find one that's uglyer + i'm a collector so i would get it no matter what. But sure a Grasp mask is welcomed.

I want the dream rider one badly, oh and if you look at the dream rider mask then you'll figure out the read head is there and the "mask" is covering it, no choping off of the old face

they seriously SLAPPED this event together so pathetically quick and unhealthy. it gives anet such a horrible image.... why did they even bother? i rather have a "boardwalk" only event than a disappointing half-asses "Dragon" festival without any relation to dragons other than Emperor Kisu the moron being the tyrant of the "dragon empire". Anet seriously screwed up beyond belief with this one.

I had fun. Too bad about you, though. Maybe you could ask for a refund or something, or a free month of play time.

Wait..

such an irrelevant comment, i'm impressed. wait...(/sarcasm)

i was planning to have more fun than sitting in a circle after a spending good deal of platinum towards my titles. but you know i guess i'm just ungrateful, everyone else enjoyed the mediocre mask compared to the others available. and lets not forget the finale celestial charge game glitches. boy that was fun, want a nice screen?


it was a damn close game, shucks, and with the whole district doing their best we managed to get our whole 4 pts! YEAH! no cheating was involved.. i swear...noonebetterspillthesweettoothcheats...

i may have forgotten some sarcasm tags... o well

I think the mask is absolutely ace. Come on! It looks like something out of Alien. AWESOME!!@#$&@%)*!%%#$. It's at least 89.377% better than the appalling pumpkin head/snowman head things. Eew.

I love you, Head Crab. ♥♥♥

But if you could only get it accessorized with stacking attributes! Argh!

LoL. Like probably 99% of people out there, I think the Grasp Mask was way cooler.

I'm pretty sure 99.99% of the active GW community would rather have the Grasp Mask.

Oh well I guess we'll have to wait another year to get it.

I don't mind the new mask...it reminds me of the aliens from the movie series...should be good for halloween.

would have been nice to be able to get multiple masks...but oh well...now I have plenty of firewater and xp scrolls (hunter's)...

The best way to fix all this mask disappointed would be to have a collector at Halloween giving away all the Torment masks.

We should have to collect items via drops (like Jade Wind Orbs) and quests and trade these items for a mask of our choice. People who collect loads of 'orbs' can get all the masks

Would add a great variety in towns too and give mask collectors something to crave.
