Finally, I can get the Mirror Witch transformation! Despite being at r1 Transformation, despite using tons of Snow Crystals, despite having both the Demonic Dream Catcher and the Shamala outfit, my training count still stands at just 1/3! Finally, I can finish it!

(Technically it's still possible the RNG will continue to thwart me at every turn, but having a ton more chance is generally the best way to force it.)

    mirror witch has a pretty high success rate. mostly just finding a giant is friend to go with you can be tough. make sure you are in Adventurer Talent as well. but yeah monsters from this event count for points. good luck hunting everyone :)

    Indeed, it is decently high. Yet somehow - each and every time I finally secure both the Snow Crystal, and the Giant - Murphy steps in and says 'NO'. My luck with the Mirror Witch is bordering on near impossibility at this point (considering just how many times I've failed). I've also had tons of runs where the stupid Ice Bison never show at all either, despite hitting every last orb (and I'm even using Yui to ensure I hit all the wrong ones), because Murphy has to give me the worst RNG. Seriously, Par Ruins has been the utter bane of my life.

    Then why are you here posting? You're not helping.

    I'm pretty sure you can, but be sure to pick a spot on an inactive channel for the best results.

    Because you posted this in general section, and the event isn't up yet so there's not a thing you can do about it. Its one existence is to be there for the people to spam finalhit with 9 pickup-dolls to make it pointless to participate in on every channel

    (That: and you didn't format this as a help piece: which puts a huge nail in your instigation. I have free reign here to call it a boring event! :P)
    below: And quit whining, guh-ehh-uh. I'm enjoying my posts, you're the only one in this topic <so far> that's complaining TO complain. Going out and trying to provoke things makes you look grouchy. "Heey everyone! Look at me! I'm so obsess't` with not thinking things through that I think anyone who disagrees with any single topic-piece must HATE THE GAME(big whoop. I don't. Another nail in someone else's defense. I'm guessing you just want to talk crap to get likes, like usual). Uhhhghhh uueeuughh!! " xD

    No you don't if you don't play anymore. I also find it annoying when someone who doesn't play anymore complains about this game. They lurk and randomly pop up just to complain. Go move on to other games and complain in their forums about their games. Thanks.

    I would just ignore. I think she is just trolling trying exert some frustration or something wanting to get people riled up. She posted a pic of her doing g21 somewhere in one of the threads soooo. yep.

    Ah yes, the event is trashy as i remember. After 3 days or so most players will drop it. Like 85% of rewards are food items.

    EDIT: Never mind, the event is even worse than i thought. You actually get crappy enchants. Broken event lmao.

    So the only reason people wanted this event to return was for transformation mastery?
    No other reason, right?
    Cause I honestly see no other reason.

    I did forget transformations count. I think I still need to collect mirror witch myself.

    There was actually a suggestion to bring it back: http://forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/17342/summer-pillow-fight-d#Comment_98952

    Don't know if it's just coincidence or they actually listened to that suggestion...

    I must protest that the reward items being food will drastically hit my income. Being a chef, making and selling food is a good portion of my income. This is worse than having tariffs.

    No way they actually listened, has to be a coincidence.
    They would of brought back many other events we've been asking for, for months.
    This one suggestion seems very unpopular imo.

    Yes, I finally got the Mirror Witch transformation!

    I suspect one of the reasons many older events never return is because they'd likely break due to the various changes in the game since then*, as well as the fact that many of them - if not immediately broken - would otherwise be ruined by Power Creep. I suspect that no matter how many people ask for something, they're far less inclined to bring back any event that would either need to be fixed code-wise - rebalanced somehow to account for Power Creep - or otherwise need effort in some regard. As far as I can tell, they use these recycled events mainly as filler to buy time while the next actual new thing - event, or otherwise - is being prepared.

    As such - despite popular belief - I suspect they actually do listen, and the timing of this event wasn't just mere coincidence. The problem is that many of the most popular demands involve things such as "Shoot the Sun", and/or "Hillwen Nightmare", and - for one reason or another - they've currently no intentions of ever bringing those back. It's not that they aren't exactly listening, per se, it's that they're on a list of events that are likely more effort than they worth (at least for the purposes of cheap filler).

    * (Having changes to a game's code create nightmares when older events are reintroduced is a real thing, and has occurred in various games - even newer ones - as well as Mabinogi on multiple occasions.)
