I dont think we need new holidays. The calendar is very crowded. Some holidays even overlap each other. What we need is new questlines and new rewards for the existing holidays.For example a new reward or present for Christmas could be the sack of Santa claus . An epic like 50 slot bag so we can put all the freaking toys in it . I NEED MORE BAG SPACE damn it
I would like it if Blizzard gave some love to Pirates' Day.
Probably something like increasing the duration of the event and add a pirate-like questchain with multiple vanity rewards at the end. These can be collected over 2-3 years (like the Children's week quests used to work before pets became account wide) which would result in people coming back to the holiday and keep the holiday active with a reward to look forward too.
They could add celebrations for ingame events. Hooray for the day the Lich King fell or Orgrimmar was liberated from Garrosh. They could add some items that are now unavailable or very rare related to those events (Darkspear Rebellion removed items etc.).
They need to add cosmetic fun toys that alter your visual in some way or provide some sort of animation (eg. snowflakes but a rare item with say 50 charges) but can be used any time of the year. Maybe even add random NPCS that walk around shooting you with said fun toys turning you into a leper gnome in a santa costume or throw a headless horseman mask at you.
Why have events if there is never often enough upgrades each year for item level thats for current content at the time of the event ?
Would love to see each year better looking Christmas trees in Org, and decorated properly so it actually looks like a christmas tree and changes each year as well as the same standard gifts.
Even though this year it was a helicopter. Why are the gifts so stingy. Why not have random gold, or bags of gems, or something unexpected instead
I'd love to get new achievements for all holidays and a meta achievement with an awesome mount again! Also new bosses for all holidays! And some new holidays would be nice too!
Many players have been playing for years. Holidays need something added to them each year to keep people interested. Could work in current expac story lines with holiday quest.
