Why would someone chose a concept of useless event rewards?

The idea of putting vendor trash inside lucky eggs is.... pardon me but, stupid and not fun. Nothing to be excited about, at all. It's like getting a pair of regular socks for Christmas from Santa. Would be much more fun if there were a small chance of a U/U vanity item (no market value) inside. Somehow I managed to get a stack of 99 lucky eggs. Be damned if I bother to open them....

The main point of the eggs in the first place is so that they're a form of currency to be passed in for the other event items you can get. Why did you do the event that many times? After I got my earrings and the lamp, there's not much point in doing it beyond that for me. That's 16 eggs. If after you get all those and you have lucky eggs left over....what's the point in keeping them? This gives us something to do with the extras instead of just throwing them out or having them sit in your inventory/retainer. It's not much but it is something. I'll never understand people's reasoning on complaining that they're not getting enough free stuff for partaking in a social event.

Any of the holiday events have always been about social items being made available. The reasoning behind providing other kinds of rewards that would be more beneficial to us was mentioned already.

I also disagree with OP. I don't want game-breaking stuff to be added to events. You either like doing it or not.

However, it would be nice to spice event rewards a bit with some extra fun stuff. We have done more than one event where your character is transformed into a monster or different character. Why not do like ffxi (I know, this isn't ffxi, but still), and add an item with infinite uses you can use to transform into something else (in open world, unable to attack or whatever) just for fun?

In this particular event we can transform, and it's lovely. Please, let us have an item to transform into spriggan / bat / other stuff you have already done before. It's something fun and it does not break the game.

A ring of transformation would be awesome. Or a stack of consumables that change you as well.

I did fates with friends as they logged on for fun. Either way, how I got 99 lucky eggs is irrelevant. I would be quite happy if not all of the items could be traded for eggs. Instead, one of the earrings, or the lamp could have a decently balanced % of dropping when you open a lucky egg. That's not asking for "more free stuff". Then we wouldn't have to say that once you get 16 there is not much point in doing them. At least not that soon. As it is we can engage the item in our inventory but it's not very engaging to do so.... to put it that way. Just like coffers in dungeons. Not that fun, whereas it wouldn't take much to just tweak the system a little and make people smile instead of frown when they open one of those eggs.
