So.... does the Istan event happen just a small timegap ahead of the Lion's Arch event?

I won't have much time this evening to get into the game. My boss is forcing me to do overtime as it is halfway point through the financial year... and I want to get both masks (I wish I hadn't missed out on the Witch hat last year... nor trashed the Pumpkin I did get before the hat-maker showed up).

Actually i found that the MadKing came in LA first and then when he was done i went to the one of the higher districts in Kamadan he just arrived there..

so it's doable to just get the mask in LA then jump over to get the one in Kamadan.

Another fun Halloween with the Mad King. It's funny to see the people that intentionally die during Mad King Says...especially when they die in mid "Jump!".

A good time, as usual. Thanks again, A-Net!

Is there any other prizes given out when the Mad King plays his games like - Trick or Treat bags

That's all that is given out, along with the hat.

True, it's funny to see people die during the Mad King Says game. But it still sucks that some people still call people who do the emotes when they're not supposed to "noobs" just to feel superior.

I've tried to make all the appearances today, I'm hoarding corn and cookies for dungeon running, and I can honestly say this year seems to be worse than last year. It's a real shame, I've seen a lot worse than "noobs" (which is bad enough), some people seem to forget not everyone is there every year at every showing.

But yeh, as much as I love this event my faith in human nature is sliding further and further down as the day progresses thanks to superior asshats who think that typing an emote quickly makes them special.

Ok, i know this has been said before, but for those that haven't seen this years masks, here they are:




Now especially the Mummy mask (although I'd wear the scarecrow mask on one character aswell...), please for the love of god, make the special mask actually usable and modable as normal headgear...

Come on ANet, we've been asking for this for a couple of years now...

The fact that you've been asking this for a couple of years should be a cue as to understanding they'll never listen.

I say scrap the both of them and roll out the Pumpkins/Wicked Hats again.

A year of waiting for something I missed... and we get these.

Yeah, and I think both of them are ugly, that's my opinion.

The Scarecrow goes with nothing and the Mummy Mask is only fitting for that Ritualist Ancient armor, which everyone and their brother has dyed white at least once.

So...because you missed an event everyone else should lose out on getting 2 new masks? Great logic.

I dislike both, and I know...that's my opinion >.>

The scarecrow looks rediculous and the mummy....wait, don't the Rits already have a better version of this?

Last year >>>>>>> this year (and again, before anyone finds the need to mention...I know...it's an opinion ^_^ )

I like the Mummy Mask..... not that other piece of garbage. I was in LA first, tried to get to Kamadan to get the 2 for 1 special, but had to wait till this morning to get the mummy mask.

Anyways they are just special fun masks, and should not be considered to be treated like normal amour.

I'm sure they weren't meant to be pretty lol. But the scare crow one looks pretty nice.

TBH, I find these shots of the masks to be more ... descriptive. Better lighting and all that. So I guess the OP should have just posted this as a reply to RTS' thread so that it could be included?

I'm not crazy about masks in general, as last thing I personally want is storage space taken up by something totally non-functional and without value. Yes, they would be neat to keep around for occasional use, but I have already had to throw out all my previous masks and other trinkets. Not sure where I'd even put these. Meh. /rant

As for these masks, they're well done, but I dont like them, so it makes my choice to skip out on them all that much easier.

That's what the hat maker is for, so they don't HAVE to take up storage!

Hrm, I forgot to check to see if the mummy one is dyable. Shoot. :P Now I'm at work and can't check.

I like them and think they're a refreshing change.

I actually was in a great district this morning. People were having fun and laughing and there was only one utterance of "noob" near the end and that was the one remotely negative post. It was a great time. :-) Im going to try and think of that one instead of all the districts since then.

0.0 don't you know there's a hat maker now? where you don't have to waste any storage space for your holiday masks?

I've already gotten rid of all my previous festival hats before that anyway. *shrugs* Therefore never looked into storing anything with the Hat Maker, but have no desire to keep these at any rate. So disregard my post above then.

Storage still sucks. They should make an armorer that works that way.
