i just feel like saying something im one hell of a fan of summer festival every year i cant wait for this event each year i try my best to get the cool new goodies in the summer fest like the snails last year. every year i cant wait to see whats new to get. i literally go into the summer fest map each year and stay there almost till its over lol because i have so much fun there but this year nothing new is added to this event and thats very disappointing , this is not a small event that just past over a weekend so i really thought you guys would put something in the event for our older players , yes i know there is the sahaa balls that can keep people busy but really would like to to see something added, its really strange in the beginning of this year you guys said you wil be adding more stuff to the events but this surley dont seem like it and thats kinda sad. these events are only exciting for new players not for the olders ones if there is nothing new to do or to get
Really wish you guys want to add new stuff to some events like the longer ones

The Pig. He is a controller class companion with the powers;
Charge, Expert Controller, Filthy Animal, Master Controller, and Mud Sling
This event companion is obtained by collecting 4,200 flowers during the event.
My friend Dervish of Thay, got a scythe in 2017, looks pretty wicked to see him charging the enemy with it.
I am sure there is something to be found for everyone.
the pig you can get off the auction house for 5k AD, certainly better than grinding flower picking for it.
apart from the slim-to-nothing chance of getting the tenser disk, there's generally nothing from the summer festival that's worthwhile enough for me to want to keep because I've pretty much already got everything. what I do get now, I sell for next to nothing.
Updating the Winter Festival has my attention. That's usually the best event of the year, in terms of value for time invested outside of the Jubilee.
RIP Real Tiamat, RIP Real Demogorgon RIP real Temple of the spider. Why remove non bis content to give to bis players ????
FORCING the majority of your player base to play 4 mod old dungeons and trial will have a bad result on player base
Changes are getting so bad i would rather prefer no new changes (RIP ICE FISHING in winter fest)

Except vouchers for Influence you can earn vouchers for Surplus Equipment or for Gems, but Influence is the most valuable voucher.
The summer festival is perhaps best described as "tedious". There is virtually nothing in the dailies that really feels fun, especially after the first time, and it's not even that expedient: The daily cannot be completed without waiting up to 35 minutes for two events to come and go - I choose the word "waiting" carefully, as all you need to do is score a couple of points and go take a nap, rinse and repeat for as many characters as you have.
- Slaughtering trolls en masse would be more interesting if they actually posed a threat.
- The water battle's an interesting novelty, but it doesn't really work out in an intercontinental environment, and it can still get a little tiresome.
- The summer feast... okay, you're herding animals. Do you really want to be the best animal-herder in the realm?
- Sahha isn't technically part of the daily, but it also suffers from this. It can be interesting if the teams are balanced, but I typically see at least one person on my team sleeping through the entire match. (I've been guilty of this myself on occasion, but don't usually give up until it looks like it is physically impossible to score enough points to catch up to the opposing team.)
The events in STO's Lohlunat festival do a much better job of staying relevant and/or interesting throughout their duration: some steer clear of fixed durations, others allow either early completion or better rewards if you play it well. This might be a good thing to look into.For example:
+ When a player only leeches from groups within the event area, nothing will drop anymore for him after a while.
+ Any event item (Sahha Ball, Gift of Simril) can be used solo as well, and it gives the same rewards as used in a group.
And since it looks like it's allways the same persons with the same accounts doing the scamming during these events, i doubt that GMs are doing anything against this kind of crappy behaviour either.
Some of these scammers are even part of known guilds, but it appears that their guilds don't give a youknowwhat about what some of their guild members do... so much for the usual "join a guild, and everything will be fine" replys.
could a person in authority confirm if the legendary mounts from the festival are resalable or not. I know what the tool tip says but I have a dim memory of this being a question every year because of tool tip.
on xbox I have all the balls from doing quest every day on 9 toons plus the new chars and almost no one is offering ball trades. it's all ball sales. lol. hoping it ramps up. I don't want to have to revert to asking strangers.
the actual daily that counts justinvolves saying hi to the priestess. the 35 minute daily quest just gets you some crafting stuff. totally unnecessary unless you're die hard crafting.
