    ***Sword of Loyalty (+1% Crit, +38 Phys Attack, +3 Str)
    60 Halloween Treats
    2 Candy Boxes
    30 Pumpkinhead Pills
    10 Monkey Pills

    That's what I got. Nothing special other than the sword, which I'm hoping sells for a decent price. It's useless to me as I am a wizard.


    I really wanted to get the veno/bar mount for my wife's character, but that looks like it's not going to happen. Oh well, I've decided to just use one of my own game engines to mimic Perfect World and model an even cooler looking mount for her. It's sad that I can't give her a real in game item, but that's not going to stop me from making my own for her.

    They give you an absolutely amazing buff (I got +400 magic attack power, pretty amazing for level 41)........ but they only last for 5 minutes -.- Hardly worth 6k (assuming an angel is worth 30k).

    The candy boxes, however, do stack, so you can save space by not opening them until you need to.

    Is there anyway that the candies could be made to stack, cause it is annoying to have all the candies out at once (and the cakes stack to 100, so I don't see why the candies couldn't).

    250+ boxes opened, only thing worthwhile is the belt.

    Trashed all of the pills and cakes.....absolutely useless.

    540 treats (27 ga)
    3 common amber (3)
    6 garnet (6)
    1 sapphire (1)
    2 citrine (2)
    10 fat bro (1)
    10 big head (1)
    10 monkey (1)
    1 ornament (1) 3* ring 110mp mag attk 41 i can actually use this as i am a cleric
    32 boxes of candy (32)

    I bought 2 ga's for 60K each
    and then bought in bulk of ten from cash shop
    and for the life of me i cannot figure out where i messed up on my addition.
    this adds up to 75.... minus the two I bought w/gold it leaves 73. how I can have that when I bought lots of ten is beyond me. I just double checked my bank and my bag and i have accounted for everything. so this accounting says that I have 3 items that I did not give a GA for or I lost 7 ga's
    7 times the 2.90 that you pay for 10 ga's in cash shop is 20.30.
    Sad thing is that I have 30 more GA's in my bag for a total spent in cash shop of 29.00
    SIGH just call me gullible

    Anyone else got any results, I'd like to hear what luck other people had so people that are considering trying the gifts have a good idea what they are getting into (since all they see in-game from the duke is "this person got this sweet item" and not the total number of presents opened, or total number of each item rewarded).


    Lets keep people informed so there will be fewer people complaining about their drops from the presents.

    (Posting this here as well since it fits in this thread)

    i spent $25 on angel's and got:
    1 3* Club
    2 3* neckalces
    2 untamed aerogear (traded one for wings, gave one to my partner)
    1 Nightmare (for all the non D&D'ers that would be the horse)

    I realized
    ~*~ The typical treats you get are actually a pretty good value 20 of them = 20 potions from the apothocary at 3400 each = 68k still coming out 20k ahead
    ~*~ The shards most of them i will trade up to lvl 5 shards but probably lost about 20k each on them
    ~*~ The candies sell for 12k i believe to the npc so you are loosing about 30k there
    ~*~ 3* items you *should* be able to recover your costs on them or profit
    ~*~ The pills are just a complete and total loss b:angry
    ~*~ The Amulet/Necklace of the headless horseman seem to be selling at the 200k range which is a 150k profit roughly
    ~*~ Aerogear i have not seen for sell yet but imagine its 1 mil + easy, same for the Horse

    all in all there is alot more good items then bad

    The Amulet and necklace were going for significantly more than that last night when I was on.
    The aerogear was going for quite a bit more than a million, and Midnight was also pretty expensive. (except for one guy I know who bought it for under 500k)



    On another note, from 10 angels, I got

    1 xp amulet
    3* shoes
    candy/treats

    maybe because of it being a different server, i would assume that the fast aerogear would be more valuable to the pvp server b:victory but then again i could be totally wrong on my prices too

    6 Special Amulets
    1 Special Ring
    1 piece of armor
    lots of junk

    I am on Heavens Tear server and I have seen the Midnight mount selling in between 5-10 million coin and its ridiculous what the candies I seen were going for (avg. 15k a piece), and the boxes from in between 35-75k a peice,,,,,ugh. As far as the amulets and belts, haven't seen them for sale anywhere .......yet, but im sure once the hype goes away all the spiders will crawl out of the closet.

    ~FYI~I bought about 3 sets of 10 angels and got:

    2 - Midnight Mounts
    3 - Headless Horseman amulets
    1 - Headless Horseman Belt
    2 - 3* chests
    2 - 3* arms
    2000 - treats
    about 25-30 boxes of candy

    Lucky Much >.>

    For me i bought about 3 full stacks of GA, give or take a few and got:

    500 = treats
    1 - 3* arm 2 sockets
    1 - 3* belt
    10-15 - boxes of candy
    3 - common gems
    30 - pills

    Hoping for Midnight (but who isn't?) or the beast mount, or at least a some decent gear. So aside form the 3* belt and arm i got boned, but i should have guessed this would happen.

    I really hope that there will be an event that will give you prizes based on droppings from mobs - or something similar. That would be so much fun for everyone than just buying millions of useless guardian angels.

    hold on, what you said doesn't add up. "3 sets of 10 angles"=30 angels? Each box of candy costs 1 angel, so if you already have 25-30 boxes of candy, how can you have all those other stuff with only 30 angels? Not to mention you'd need 100 angels to get 2000 treats, assuming that's somewhere near the true number and not an exaggeration. So if you meant that you bought the 30 angels from the cash shop, then you spent several millions of in-game money for the rest?? b:shocked

    Anyways, from my 50 angels and I got:

    240 treats
    25-26 boxes of candy
    5-6 common gems
    1 wing of daedalus
    and the rest are pills.

    I got 80 treats (4 dolls), 1 Halloween Box and got candy, and got one Headless Horseman's Necklace.

    So I spent about 4 dolls and roughly 200-400k. I don't remember much on what I spent. I just knew I gave up fast.

    I used 10 angels and the only thing useful to me was 2 horseman belts. Traded the spare for the ring so I could use the set for grinding/ zhen etc.

    I'd like to know if the aeogear given, is matched to the class when it happens, or do you recieve a random one? IE will Untamed always get untamed aero's, or is it always a random mix between the three.

    I do wish we had a better list of odds of each item. It sounds like necklaces are a lot more common than belts.

    Since this seems to be the thread that would know. I've received several of the Halloween Armor Packs, etc... and can't get them to open. I was told (and the tooltip says the same) to go to Jolly Old Jones to get them open, but there isn't an option to do so.

    How do I get these open?

    Thanks for any help on this matter.

    haven't had the privilage of getting any armor packs (just cake, candy, and pills), but it's been said in a lot of other threads, and by GMs, that you need to be level 20 to open the packs (and you do it the way that you said, by talking to jolly old mr. jones).
