Mini Pig Woes...
ducktape
So now pig = armbrace? XD
I wish they'd just add the damned collector already so we can find out what we get in exchange for the pig. Hopefully pig prices will end up being around 30k or so, won't mind buying one for that much, unless all I get is some lunar fortunes. Even then, since fortunes are the only way to get a rat....might make the trade.

I'm sitting in Kama watching a lot of people spam prices in the ~25-50k range, and they don't seem to be selling all that quick. Who are these people that apparently paid more then that, and how did they forget that there are about twice as many pigs out there as players?

I hope it's ONLY 1 the collector wants and not 3 or 5... Also do you think we can trade Dedicated Pigs?

Anything the collector is offering will NOT be worth anywhere near that amount. |

I hope she's right, as I dedicated the pig I got last year.
Elnai
And for clarification: People are now buying/selling dedicated and undedicated for 10k.
Noted in ad1 LA and Kam.

Special Miniature Rewards In addition to the festival rewards mentioned above, two special miniatures will be available this year. For those lucky enough to receive multiple miniature pigs during last year's celebration, look for a special collector with a celestial surprise for you. And watch those Lunar Fortunes closely. Your immediate future just might include a miniature Celestial Rat in your pack. |
3-5 Mini Pigs -> Mini Nian

Crap - more minis
Ok, getting one each year at the festival is fun - so are birthday presents
But this is getting out of hand - especially when all you see in chat is "wts pigs."
This game has turned into pokemon junior where the only things worth anything anymore are those stupid mini pets.

I wonder... I've still got a bunch of lunar fortunes from last year -- would they still give a chance at a lunar pig you think?
Dallcingi
man i sold my only one for 5k oops...
probably will go down later, way to many in the market anyways.
the sellers just wanna make profit cause now there is a use for them.
pretty stupid by anet imo.... why use something previous for a new item? just make a way to grind to that new mini lol.

WTB more QQing in 48 hours time when these pig high prices won't mean squat.
w00t!
I heard they were going to give away a Roller Beetle mini in exchange for your extra pig.
SerenitySilverstar
Sorry, but your attempt at artificial pig price inflation fails.
w00t!
Actually, I was trying to deflate Roller Beetle prices.
Curses, foiled again!

I gave a few away to Guildies who missed the event last year, and I certainly raised an eyebrow when I saw that the mini's will be exchangeable for something.
It sort of does seem like a slap in the face to those who gave away their mini-Pigs.

I wouldn't be surprised if they give another way of getting the new minipet besides just mini pigs. Or they'll give them out at the same event like mini pigs, just that people trading minipigs would get them before.

I am getting a whiff of the fact you might need more then 2 or 3 pigs to get what you need from the collector, since the actual guildwars site mentions "those lucky few who got multiple pigs" etc
Sort of get the impression you might need more then one pig for this new "pet".
If it is a pet that is.

Almost as bad a rumor as the person who said you'd be able to trade them in for Rollerbeetles. Oh wait, that was me.
Polgara Val
Its possible but you have to admit its not improbable since most collectors in gw actually require more then one of the item he needs to swap for whatever he is providing.

or it means since you got multiple, you can trade ONE of them to the collector to get a new mini, and keep your original pig.

On topic of how many pigs will be needed:
In her chat when asked how many would be needed for the special miniature she said "More than 2 less than a dozen"

There had better be a better chance with those dang fortunes than 1 in 100000000000000 like the polar bear or this rat is going to be very very mad!
WinterSnowblind
Have to feel bad now for those people who have been paying a lot of money for the pigs, only to now need more. I really dislike this whole "trade in your pigs" idea.

Mini Pig is FTW
I'll be keeping mine. Only pet worth having. Soooo common, yet never seen
