Pets are not tradable and so have no value. Lets use HSR as an example. That's extremely rare, possibly the rarest non discontinued item in the game. The point is that although rare it's ALWAYS available as a drop. That's a huge difference.


Ok and whats it being always available have to do with anything?

In fact thats false, once this event end, the gsh wont be available till jagex makes it so again in the future.

So even though they said it wont be perm discontinued, it will be temporarily until they release it again.

Plus you still havent disproven that everything in the game pretty much runs off rng so why should this be any different?

Wow you have a really good point there Draco, made me think about how in a way GSH is like a discontinued rare but Jagex left the option of potentially controlling its price via supply to not spike up like the 1st gen phats if they wanted to. But then again they're letting the rarity+long time in between supply+inflation let it play as a DR. There should be a pseudo-DR league imo. Probably be like this "discontinued rares > pseudo-DR > rares (whatever this is maybe certain tokes like zombie walk or something).

God, why is everyone so salty about this Gsh?

You either get it or you dont.

Simple as that!

Good luck.


Exactly.

Plus all other santas are worth over 2-3b each so it only makes sense this would too.

I thought this much was obvious?

I mean the only source for the hat is this event and the event in question is only temporary thus only makes sense that the availability of said hat would be too.

Instead of relying on RNG they should have made it effort based. such as meting a certain goal. That way everyone who made an effort will get one and those who didn't try at all will be out of luck.

Imagine grinding the entire event, opening hundreds or thousands of gifts to get no GSH or gold present only for your friend to get it first try without playing much at all.

I'd be happy for my friend sure, but I'd be very annoyed by the system.


Ppl go thousands of kills dry or millions of xp dry of pets so how is this any different?

Nothing needs to change except ppl learning to deal with rng.

I mean you do know basically everything runs off rng in the game right?

Green Party Hats are ALWAYS available as a drop from blue, purple and gold presents too. What's the "huge" difference?
Green party Hats havent been available as drops since 2001.

Just because they haven't yet, doesnt mean they never will. Unless you have a crystal ball somewhere that can foresee every possible future.

So since no one can do that and considering theres so much talk about rereleasing old items, its best to assume they will at some point.

That is unless jagex change their mind as usual.

Jagex have stated MANY MANY times they will NEVER EVER re-release old rares. Sure they can change their mind but statistics as of this moment say otherwise.

Yet look at rubber turkies and whatnot, they have been rereleased so clearly this is false.
