I was looking forward to having old Morostide ToT and Patch items released this year for a chance at obtaining old items in a more fun way (buying them...yawns) Now that I'm collecting for the gourmand achievement, I was in high hopes of having the chance to get food from previous years, but it seems like only this years ToT and some of last years items in the patch seem to be circulating. I'm disappointed.. :(

Will old items be circulating this year? I wouldn't mind if they did but at a lower chance than this years, as long as they are released to be ToTed and found at the Patch.

I'm actually really happy they chose not to mix the old in with the new as bad as last year. Last year was super frustrating because I was getting old crap I already had 10 of like. . 75% of the time. I had to buy a ton of things at the end of the event from user shops. This year I'm pretty close to having everything by doing it myself or trading extras.

I wouldn't mind if the ratio was changed a tiny bit, there is obviously a chance for old Pumpkin Patch items since I just got in the patch, but I don't think I've seen a single old ToT item...

Also there are old pumpkins being carved, I got a few older ones when I carved a few

I think on the last week of the event, some old ToT items could be added to the mix -- otherwise I think pretty much everyone will already have everything and then people might lose interest in it :x

I've been getting some of the older items in the patch too (like the lipsticks), so I think that one is fine... I mean, there's a limit to how many old things can be pulled back without making the new items be too rare :/

There are some old items in there, such as the pumpkin lipglosses. I do like having /some/ old things in the patch, but with a focus on new things.

I really just wish Jakyl was released again though. He was retired last year, too. Oowel and Kawl (and obviously Snowflaik) weren't retired this year, so why Jakyl?

I wouldn't be a fan of more old items mixed in. not only would that make the new items unnecessarily more rare (eater achievement too) but as with alot of people, I have a ton of old crap that I don't want to continue to get again. I also agree with I wanted a patch myself :( sad it was retired a couple of years ago

eh I'd rather not have old items either. Items from last year are good enough. I still get some of those, but I want to get the newer ones too

Not sure if old item chance has been increased or if I've just hit a funk :C But I seem to be getting more old junk than new stuff since the second release.

Kawl or Oowel (Whichever is older) should have been retired, imo. I think it was forgotten or something, because Patch was retired last year.

Halloeve was retired two years ago, I think, so Jakyl was last year as well. That's not impossible, but I think Oowel is the oldest one, so why wasn't it retiiiiiired?

That is a possibility. I just remember thinking it was odd that people could still get both of the Jaxon birds this year, yet Jaykl (and Halloeve for that matter) have had their retirements. I myself wouldn't mind seeing a random, retired Jaxon minion get unretired each morostide, alongside Snowflaik and whatever new minion appears.

I wouldn't like to see them unretired because every Jaxon minion not named Snowflaik get worthless. As in, less than 50K worth at some point, and it makes me sad. They're supposed to be special and...some of them are selling for less than 100K. Especially the unpopular ones.

Snowflaik : 500K, never retired Halloeve : 9M, retired two years ago Jakyl : 2M, retired last year Patch: 750K, retired last year Kawl : 130K, active Oowel: 95K, active Slivyne:25K, active Eater:95K, active

Only two of the minions are over 1M, and only one is over 5M.

Halloeve is 9M, far from the outrageous 19M it was this year and Jakyl is 2M. I wouldn't bawl if Halloeve got rereleased, but not via patch. Too many would get out, and Halloeve...is not that popular anyway. So, the price would just crash

And, you know what. When it was unretired, nobody liked Halloeve. It was the "meh" of Jaxon's pets. Like "I could have gotten a Jakyl or a Snowflaik but I got Halloeve, boo"

Joke on them, it's the most expensive one.

I lied. For some reason I thought was from last year. Don't hate me.

It would be nice if there was some voluntary way to get older Morostide items that involved sP, like selling special treat bags in the Holiday Shop that only give out old items when you open them.

I think they normally release some more of the older items later on ? Or they at least circulated them last year, bringing in "new" older items and re-retiring other ones nearer to the end of the event. I know some of the Patch items I have gotten are from last year.

I really don't get the argument against re-releasing the minions Why does it really matter too much if they get down a bit in price ? They were free to begin with, with rather fluctuating prices. It's not like they were cash shop, token shop, or crystal shop items to begin with where the 'value should be upheld'... Unless you're holding on to one of them hoping to sell it off at a high price. I don't believe everything should be free, but I don't see why a 'free' item from before should be put on a higher pedestal because it's at a higher price now. Not everyone would find one (and knowing my luck I wouldn't, but I would most likely buy Halloeve if it became a reasonable price).
