2008 Mini Polar Bear : Myth or Reality?
Rihanna
The question is simple ... does the mini polar bear still dropping? Anyone got one this year? What is the chance rate to get one ?

here to troll
technically 2008 mini polar bear could also be last years wintersday because it isnt only in december so technically, it is reality
??????
you needa farm more. . .. 40isnt enough. . .gogo farm moar

It is dropping. I can also guarantee you you will not get it. Waste of time to farm it. Just get a jingle bear and pretend its your mini pet.

It will drop, but it's rare enough that it's going to take a hell of a lot more tries than 40. That's naturally the point of a 'rare' drop; if they dropped every 40 runs or so, everyone would have them.
Rihanna
Yeah I understand that 40 times is maybe not enough lol but I heard nobody saying he got one this years ... maybe 10 millions run were made today ... nobody got one ?
l Rainy l
I'm sure a few people got them with the massive amount of farming that went on. I just don't think its worth it...doing 40+ farm runs won't even increase your chance that much - you will still have enormous odds against you. You might as well just do a single run and hope you get lucky.
Rihanna
bahhh that give me festival items at least lol and candy cane shards ... 40 runs gave me 2 stack of ccs ... not that bad lol

There's this thing called probability... it's a dick.
Eragon Zarroc
if u have an alliance of ten very active guilds, it is unlikely that u will hear of even one person in ur alliance getting it. if u get in 40 runs......gg. question is, how easily will u be able to sell it? all the people willing to pay TONS of money will be more interested in trying to farm their own than pay for em.

Anet confirmed the bear was coming back.
Rihanna
the goal is to dedicate it ... after that ... if I can sell it for 500 or 600e I don't really care lol

Yes the bear drops, anet has confirmed it and there has been other threads on this topic the past few weeks.

The person who got one last year had said they were farming the mission the whole time for CC shard. The drop rate on this thing is extremely bad, like everlasting tonic levels plus you have to do at least a 5 min run to open the chest. Do the math and say you're not even guaranteed 1 in a 1000 runs, but say that's how many you do. That's 83 hours of mind numbing grind. Have more self respect than to put much effort in since you're not going to be that much more likely to get it in 20 runs than 1000. Probability this low makes it unlikely you'll get rewarded just for trying, though 1 or 2 people might.
RazmO-
As everyone said here , Anet confirmed its back, and the drop rate is extremlty low, and you can get a lot more then 600e for it ;p

I cant believe this thread popped up on the first day the rift wardens appeared. After a few hours of casual farming the polar bear didnt drop for the OP, so naturally it does not exist anymore. Guess ill just uninstall and save myself the time...

Best thing you can do is pretend it doesn't exist and find a better way to spend this Christmas.

Silly Guru people. Don't you know? The good things only drop for people who don't want them. Unless those that want the good stuff farm a million times for said items.
Hell Raiser
Think of it like playing the lottery, you can't expect to win with 40 tickets. It's really not worth it imo.

In one of my previous guilds my guild member did get a polar bear, but at the time we had no idea what it was or how much it was worth. Not sure what she did with it after that, and I can't exactly provide a screenshot, but sharing stories of massive luck is fun.

wellive been farming it allday and night abhout 80 runs so far doing strenth of snow,
the thinsg youhave to look at
1 anet said it wasnt added to game until the wintersday event day aka when you go the hats
2 only reports of it dropping was stright to the heart , even though wiki says both drop it(we allknow how wiki is)
3 after that day no other mini dropped
after all this by theroy is this
the pet will on drop on hat day this year would be jan 1st
that it only drop s from stright from the heart
yeha i know 80 isnt a high number to say damn i havent gotten it yet, im not saying this
however what i would say is that even though the guy farmed it the whole time , the fact was it was not added to game to 2nd to last day of event. so are they doing the same this year or is it the wholevent time

we can say that this is more rare than getting a VS in one of those VS farm runs, after doing those for a while it takes a load of runs to just see a VS drop for anyone. getting this mini will take a while and some luck
Reflect
i hope to get 1....tho i won't ;/
Fril Estelin
I hope the antifarm code is on for these Rift Warden quests. I'd hate this rare item to be gotten by people who spend this time of the year farming...

When you get there, it only takes a couple of minutes, or you could even let Freezie and his Snowmans finish the rest (takes longer, but it's nice while watching a movie
)

I'm an idiot for not skipping the useless grentch the first time.

So far, there's only been 1 confirmed drop this year...
lilraceangel3
its been confirmed by Anet that there is a mini PB drop, but im sure the rate is so low that unless you bot and run it all during wintersday, your chaces are slim to none.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
if you do 5635635242765643456565456 runs, u have the same chance as if u do just 1 anyways
so, ye u have always this ~0,00000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 chance ;/
and btw the quest is quite bot-able -> u just need to run to the end (2-3 minutes) and w8 gretches die(7-8 minutes) no fighting at all...
