Feedback: Recent Updates to Holiday Events

I’d like to revive this topic now that we’ve been through a few of the Holiday revamps; It feels like of all the dungeon related holidays, Love is in the Air has been the most shafted in terms of limited time drops.

Love Rocket was already a very low drop rate chance to begin with and now they added the manuscript which is just as equally low.

According to Wowhead the manuscript from Brewfest had a .6% drop rate; thats a .60% drop rate normally if someone didn’t get it their first try of the day.

As for the Love is in the Air one? .06% Drop rate normally. This is JUST as bad as the mount itself which is potentially in the .01% if not lower. Not even the Hallows End armor was this bad at a recorded 1.6% drop rate.

Love is in the Air is also the shortest running holiday of all the holidays that have themed dungeons tied to them. With a large swath of the playerbase still struggling to get the Love Rocket even after the boosted drop rate once a day, I feel adding an equally low drop rate of the manuscript is honestly terrible design.

I was in the call in December where Ion said he wanted to respect the players time yet so far we’ve seen none of this respect of our time. Do we have to wait til War Within to be eligible for this respect?

I feel adjustments need to be made to get players moving along. I understand you want this content to last but it shouldn’t last 10+ years for some people. Holidays are meant to be times of relaxation, not stress and struggling.
