You mean you have to go into a dungeon in EoTN to possibly get one of these.It may have been that Witchblade was in international dis.
Witchblade

Dangit, and I thought there were no more miniatures to blow my cash on. (Mini's that weren't 1 mil +) Ah well, once the intial panic price drops, I'll have to waste more cash and buy one. Sorry, warrior, your obsidian will have to wait again.

It is just jealous, greedy people complaining. There are these people in every game.

Oh yeah, failed four times in a row! Thank you disconnect and slow hexes.
How come the grentch spawn even when I haven't finished killed the first groups?

the polar bear is soo cute

This is the same as the Icy Dragon Sword craze.
If it would not have still been available after Wintersday, people would have moaned to no end!
I hope the bear gets put into the normal chest of the snowman dungeon. Hearing of this pet after 12 days when the event is over is a bit frustrating. It seems to be exceedingly rare.
Or maybe it is rare because nobody could be arsed to do this quest (it gets boring quickly, face it) several times. :>
The method to acquire the rare stuff is also something I am not happy about. In comparison to World of Warcraft GW has no proper loot - it is either Top or Flop, 99% being Flop and the things you have to do extremely repetitive.

Ok, I'm playing on my monk, and I'm having serious issues with the Strength of Snow quest. I can't do the end bit. I've tried sitting there, but it always seems like the grentches own my snowmen, and then own me. My Ice Breaker doesn't last long enough to be of any use to me, and the other two utility skills are usually recharging when I need them.
Any advice for doing this as a monk?

I don't own the BMP and I can't get the special weapons. Would I complain if those were the case (which only the BMP is), no, because they don't affect my gaming because I didn't purchase the content Anet got us. Its called not being a cheapass and getting something you might enjoy. ANet is not here to give you everything for free.

Lol - I gotta wonder - on what day of the week do the developer meet to invent ways to piss players off?
They had to know the reaction this would bring - first introduce a mini that was so rare it didn't even show up till the last day of a 12 day festival even though thousands of people doing the same quest over and over throughout the two weeks. Then they lie to Gaile to make sure the players can never trust her again. And when they finally do tell the truth they let us know you have about 18 hours to get the bears and then it's gone for another year. Talk about a recipe for frustration.
Pissing people had to be intentional - no one could have done this and thought it would have been hailed a wonderful thing by all and sundry. (except maybe the same group of ????? who released pigs in presents last February, then immediately lowered the drop rate to bump the price over 60k and then dumped them on us like candy to make sure people who spent a lot felt jerked around)

Amazing surprise. Did like 40+ runs since the event started haven't seen one. Grats on getting it Witchblade.

can we get galie on here to say if they plan on making the drop rate better or any news on this subject....its pissing a lot of people off

Leslie read the last few pages and there is specific mention of RUINING the game. Its not really unfair either.
Do you expect to win the lottery if you don't buy a ticket? I sure as hell don't. All those suckers just help me pay my taxes.
Regardless, people would complain about this no matter what, just like people complain about minipets originally coming only to birthdays, and then special ones in magazines, and then to only certain countries. Then the Mini Pig everyone thought was so awesome and complained it was too rare. Then the finale gave a million of them away, and then everyone complained they were too common. Nobody is ever happy except for me I guess.
Oh well. *skips off all happy go lucky into another quest because he doesn't need a mini-pet to have fun or feel equal*
And also, the pet is confirmed to have been available all of Wintersday, not just in the last day. Just no one has advertised it. Having something super rare is cool in my opinion.

No one else has one yet? I find it hard to believe unless the drop rate is damn near broken...

the only way to end this madness is to increase the rate...otherwise peeps might start hating anet :P

Congrats to Witchblade, but I wish they wouldn't make holiday stuff like this so rare. I think most would agree that the Canthan New Year pig was too easy to farm, but this is frustratingly the other way. Can't we have some balance, ANet?
