Well, currently, items counting towards the Party Animal title track mostly only appear during events, while the rest are rarer and not spammable causing a huge Demand/Supply. I suggest new drop points, such as Zaishen Chest drop fireworks in bundles of 2-5.

Post your idea's for drop points/signed or unsigned.

Sure, if the Z-chest is giving Brulees and Firewaters...why not fireworks?

/signed. You CAN get party items from the end chest in the Secret Lair of the Snowmen, but man that gets boring quick.

The Z-Chest gives tonics, worth 2 points. Unlimited Party Points can be aquired from Snowmen Dungeon

Yes, the cave drops Snowman Summoners, but if you HH it in HM, you get an average of 6 per hour. 6 points per hour? That is waaaay too slow.

I'm going to rule /notsigned on this, simply because that'd sorta ruin their idea of being party items. Keeping them isolated on weekends would be nice.

Almost missed your idea on bundle drops from the Zaishen Chest. I could support something like that.

How about reducing the firewater/brulee rate to add in the party items?

Would crates drop, because you cant get those any more?

I'm more for the idea of selling Party Animal items via the merchants in the game.

I reckon it should be items dropping all over the continents for each type, so we can gradually get the titles as we want, eg.
Tyria=fireworks
Cantha=sugar
Elona=ale

Dunno how it would work but I don't have the time on weekends to farm, but I'd like to have a go at getting these titles without the massive precitag...

The Zaishen chest could drop Crates of Fireworks.

Also, PvE crature could drop drinks, sweets and fireworks with Key drop rates. Drops could be different depending on creature and area, for example, Vabbian liquor in Vabbi.

I'd say no crates, that would keep them special. I'm thinking maybe a reward from dungeon like Snowman? It already gives party points, why not add more, b/c IMO, average 6 points an hour of runs is WAAAY not worth the time.

God no. Dust would NEVER be in supply, even with people farming FoW/UW non-stop. Say goodbye to having enough dust to craft consumables or make armor.

/signed if it decreases chance of Brulee and Firewater (doesnt effect other drops)

If they give us that Creme Brulee and Firewater crap, they might as well give us this too.

- /signed > for Crates out of Z-Chest

- /signed > for increasement of Point Rate per Hour of the Snowman Dungeon

- /signed > for any improvement around those Grind Title Items

**************

Personal Suggestion:

Make of all 3 Titles all those items, which can give 1 Point towards the Title Drops from Monsters worldwide, with the drop rate of say purple items ...


So for party title could drop then Rockets, Sparklers ect. from Monsters, this way you could farm them better and the insane grind would be not so ridiculous and also it owuld cheapen the title, because when you don't have the moeny to buy you all the stuff, then you try simple to farm them.
However, Snowman Dungeon is boring and as that, the rate you get points oer hour is total shit, because anet gives us as usual like ever way to cheap rewards for the games efforts >.<


With 1 point stuff dropping from any monsters worldwide, the rewards of Snow mna Dungeon Chest can be increased to look not obsolete.
After that Change, the Snowman Chest should drop in NM

5 Drops, in HM 10 Drops, it would be the only cheast, which would drop so much stuff.
And the drops would be either Yuletide Tonics, firework crates or some of the usual stuff mixed. Snow Man Summoners should drop exclusively from the Snowmans in the Dungeon and their points shoudl get increasede from 1 to 2 and the points from tonics from 2 to 3 so that there will be also 3 point party items, without this special 10 minutes effect which makes the crates more costy, than needed, because point wise would they be only 300g worth and not more.


If people could really farm grind title stuff, that would get their prices also a bit lower to a normal value.
Also Anet should add party stuff to the npc merchants for sell.

NPCs sell alcohol, they sell sweets in cantha, so why not also too party stuff, say rockets and again all the other 1 point stuff which could be sold for 200g da piece (2 point sweets get sold for 400g for example)
Lettign npcs sell them would also balance the party stuff price again slightly, because without given npc prices, will dictate players the price for sweets, because there will be nothing that forces players not to sell for lower, due to the fact, that the demanding masses can't go to the npc instead, if the players want to have to much money for their stuff.

nd still after all, those 3 titles shoudl become finally ACCOUNTBASED !!!.

They are 1000% only pure grind, cost only mostly money, require 0 skill, and people, which get thaose titles with multiple characters are 99,9% dupers and gold buyers or very rarely super good honest powertraders. People which intend to do that, as logn those titles aren't accountbased, must be really insane and have sure no life at all. GW must get finally rid of all its senseless grind, so that the game becomes again multi character friendly, can't say this often enough, until Naet hopefully will recognize, that a huge part of the community doesn't like the grind of GW the game got over the time and that anet destroyed with these mechanics their own principles they had, when anet had begun with prophecies...

/signed to add it to z-chest, why not, as long as it doesn't lower the drop rate of gold items.

/notsigned to have them drop randomely from monsters, come on no point making the titles easier to get than they are. there's farms for sweets and booze, use them

/notsigned for making them available from merchant. I actually used to think this was a good idea, but after the double points weekend I rethought it. You can basically get party items every holiday, from the zchest, and from the snowman dungeon (slow, yes. but a steady supply - and in hard mode you should be getting at least 8-10 party points an hour or you're not doing it fast enough) How many people actually buy booze and sweets from merchant? Can't be too many. So whats the point in adding it? Making it easier to get, and cheaper by driving down the price of the points. Eh.

show me please the idiot, who grinds in HM snowman dungeon ~5000 TIMES just to max party title, whithout getting forced to buy the stuff from other players for partly totally ridiculous prices, like Beetle Tonics sell for over 2,5 Plat WTF !!! they give only 2 points, their disguis is god damn boring and the other tonics give the same points, but sell alot lesser >.>

so much about the tonic. then the firework craters, beign theoretically worht only 300g, people sell then for over 1 Platin+, thats a theoretically 300% profit boost oO anyone, who thinks, thats normal, i can ask only, if you are kidding me and may have still all cups in your Cupboard, and that only, for a lame repeating ~10 minute effect, that can be only use in someones guild hall ...


if not monster drops, than really at least beign sold by npc merchs, like alcohl and sweets, thats the very least to balance the party item prices and to give them a price limit, so that players can freely dictate the prices for party stuff, because such shit leads only to a far more broken economy!!!

Like you talk here, so can talk only somebody, who has already maxed all those grind titles and is against anythign ,that would reduce the games gridn to make the game again multi character friendly, because of being too selfish, that you see only in your eyes your already maxed titles, that you've made the grind way. Not beign mature enough to grant others some advantages due to gameplay improvements, which would affect ALL players and all their characters that don't have the titles yet.

As if any normal thinking player would max titles like the 3 money titles with more than one character yet pfff XD lol That cheater I want see ingame, which has multiple characters with all of them having maxed all 3 money titles ..., when not even all 5 countign also wisdom and especially treasure hutner to them, because in the end they require also only money, no skill and are only 100% grind with unfair special affects that give the rich an unfair advantage over poorer players which ensures, that the rich become only more and more richer, while the poor ones stay poor, because of the game being way to bad rewarding in kind of money, at least for casual gamers and anets lead moral was ever since beginning, that hardcore gamers should never stay in any advantage over casual ones.

But time showed us ever more, how anet breaks part by part only their own words.

Maybe make a new dungeon for fireworks?

LOL I know it'd be a buttload of work for programmers etc, but maybe Secret Layer of the Dragons or something, and give them some weakened form of Dragon Blast. Drops Party Points from end chest Chest of Celebrations Past.
