Suggestion: SE is slacking a litte: Special Events like this years Rising Event

Has everyone else noticed that lately the events have gotten stingy with it's rewards? I mean yeah minions are cute but there are probably a lot of players out there like me that have about 300+ of them by now and never summon them. We all however love glamours. We used to get adorable mounts like the broken hearts chairs, the choco egg, the polar bear, and the other holiday bear that tosses presents.

That said I sat here thinking about the rising event. I am one of those die hard players. I started day one of 1.0 and I was there to watch the world burn the day the servers went down and I am still here. So, what would someone like me love to see and probably everyone else too?

Well this girl has dreams of one day riding on a flaming meteor mount.

I'll keep that dream alive in my heart too. Happy exploring everyone.

Is this some kind of joke?
We usually get 1 seasonal mount a year. 2017 had 2 to compensate for the fact that 2016 didn't have one, and 2018 has two because they merge together.
2015: Witch's Broom (All Saints Wake)
2016: Nothing
2017: Eggshilaration System (Hatching-Tide), Starlight Bear (Starlight Celebration)
2018: Broken Heart Left/Right (Valentione's Day)
2019: Circus Ahriman (All Saints Wake)
2020: Snowman (Starlight Celebration)
2021: Polar Bear (Moonfire Faire)
2022: Starlight Steed (Starlight Celebration)
2023: Rising Phoenix (The Rising)
2024: Peatie (Little Ladies Day/Hatching Tide)

The Rising has given out a minion in every single one of its incarnations other than 2023 (Rising Phoenix for the 10 year anniversary), and 2021 (Red Moon Parasol).
Infact, 2014, 2015, and 2016's versions of it gave out two minions, and 2014 also gave an emote.
So... We'll be getting that in 2033. Please look forward to it.

Seasonal event rewards have been very hit or miss all along, and the Rising has been no exception. I don't know why you think it's been otherwise.
