And last but not least: The greedy. We all know the flower-stealers. Here we have the same. They see you standing at a pumpkin and instead of taking the next one, they run to this very pumpkin and try to click it faster than you. How stupid are the players???
LOL. This game really attracts them in droves. I was trying to get the pumpkin on top of the wheel and I was having some trouble. It is the one where you have to jump on crates and then on a platform hanging by a rope to reach the pumpkin. I tried 3 times and kept falling off. Some other guy runs up and sees I am having trouble so he quickly jumps up and gets the pumpkin.......and then he tells me "Hahaha! suck it". Seriously??? It's a crappy little charm that can easily be gotten in so many other ways. I just walked a few feet away and picked up a different pumpkin.
this event is really HAMSTER. but i just want a perm jack mask, then all is well. it looks soooo good in my opinion and i saw it was temp. seriously wtf?

People seem to be missing the point, if the devs made the event so you have to manually change the tokens individually is to have people to actually play the event for longer, having them trade the tokens all at once would defeat this purpose.

If by "play event" you mean "run around PE in a circle" sure.
Yeah, running around PE looking for the npc's IS part of the event.
Clearly not the most fun part but it is part of the event, and it's made that way so people spend more time playing it.

The thing I dislike most is that if you try to get a charm from a pumpkin and you have more than 5 in your bag at the time you can't pick up another charm. So you have to trade in charms almost constantly if you're running around to the pumkins to get charms.
You can get charms from enemies with no limit if the lazy way gets too frustrating

Honestly it's faster to farm pumpkins than it is to get them as drops off enemies. It should really be the other way around if they want people actually PLAYING the game as opposed to running in circles around PE.
Yeah but with enemies you can actually do something else besides gathering them, you can do Sharandar and gather them, or do foundries and gather them, and I think you should be able to do dungeons and gather them, in case you want to JUST gather them and not do anything else at all then probably the pumpkins *might* be faster, but depends no how many people get to them before you anyway.

Designing something stupidly on purpose is still stupid.
@Venture-1@Venture from City of Heroes if you remember that far back. Yes, *that* Venture. Yes, I probably trashed your MA arc. For me it was Tuesday.

Indeed, and I've done that too. I spent most of my time in Sharandar which is were I picked up most of my charms. I was merely making an observation regarding pumpkin farming

I don't really have an issue running around giving individual charms to NPCs. However I do have an issue in that it needs to be done 600 times if you want the companion. 600! That's just busy work for the sake of busy work.

More like 500 times, assuming you do the daily event quests each day. But still... it's still a monotonous task.

It's not stupid, it's trick-or-treating. That's why you have to run around from NPC to NPC and get Tokens. They could have made so you get a random number Tokens, from 1 to 4, like it was with the flowers in the Summer Festival though.
I hate dancing with Lady Luck. She always steps on my toes.
They added cat mask to the vendor and I absolutely love it. :>
But yea, I agree that drop rate from mobs for those charms could be better to relieve PE traffic.
...I honestly don't understand how do they expect an adult person, with job, real-life responsibilities and quite often small kids to be able to spend hours on running around the PE. And if they want more than one mask at the time and have only a couple days to get them? It's ridiculous.
Did anyone realized that the blue perm masks are BOP? The weird thing is before they are available, such as the owl mask and the pit fiend mask, the tooltip say they are BOE, but when the owl mask becomes available today, it changed to BOP. The pit fiend mask still says BOE.

Also, everyone's help is welcome for improving http://neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Masquerade_of_Liars. It has been a solo endeavor thus far.

you're right is really annoyng trade one on one the charms... we need a npc which you can trade all the charms immediately
