As far as my suggestion goes, the global quest should span for a long time, I don't think anyone would want to collect 10k of quest items alone. The reason why it's a global quest is so a certain party of users can gather up other players who may not need the item to help them, like making funny recruitment post like "CMON HELP US GET THE SYLVAN CLOTHES GUISEEE!!!" XDDD

Also, the quest can be done again for the same item, maybe there's a delay for it for a few days or something. Because if the item is not hard earned, there will be no incentive for players to buy it at that month. I mean, I don't think collecting 100 items for a week is hard, especially if they drop everywhere from monsters.

But again, this is not an air-tight solution, I do agree that some people will consider doing this type of thing hard. :/

Come on guys! Post moar ideasss!!! OUO

Hm this might have already been suggested but my idea comes from my dear friend League of Legends, this game once a year opens a vault of past skins that could only be bought at a certain time.

Now that is just where I got this idea from but the store could be opened say every six months (two times a year) it would be a shop of it's own like the holiday shop but maybe like others said a "Black Market" or perhaps a "Trader from Distant Lands" and such.

He would list items from past months available for maybe a week, but not before messages of it's arrival (so people have a week to get ready before it opens). They would be the same price as before or maybe a bit less or more *shrugs* but would be available to the new members who missed a chance to get them before, it would also make new users feel better about joining later and not feel like people who joined earlier got more privileges.

this idea makes sense.
I don't know how happy I would be if the prices increased too much though

Not only to new members though. There are older players who didn't have the diamonds at the time so this options should be for every single player. Besides that. This is kinda what Shee and I had in mind. Only we suggested it for once a year or 4 times a year but 2 times works as well.

Sorry I guess what I said was messed up a bit but it is for all players.

Oke My bad.

But I do like your idea of it being 2 times a year. 4 might be a bit much, but 1 time a year might make it easyer for people to miss.

What if the items sold were really limited too? Like after a certain amount are sold then that item is unavailable again? Just throwing that onto the table.

I fear some players are going to camp at the shop and buy all of them before anyone who really needs them get there. Probably resell them at higher price too.

Make it so they can only buy ONCE each item?~ o.o"
I personally would buy mostly what I'm missing or
anything I'd like to offer to a friend~ <3

THIS.

This could be the solution.
