I know that there has always been a backlash with us players wanting more variety with things pertaining to seasonal events. We always want new glamour gear, furniture, food, barding, or minions. Instead of giving us only a few items at a time with little to no variety, why not have these seasonal events give us crafting recipes? At least 5 different kinds of items to make every time there's a seasonal event. We could get vanity weapons and armor based on the event, but let us craft these things on our own! Each year people get displeased with hoping that the next event brings us something unique.

So why do we not get crafting recipes to make things instead? It would make more work for the dev team, but I'm pretty sure that us players would be more than satisfied. We have the Highland gear and barding, so why not make more recipes like that for the seasonal events?
