The event had no purpose it seems

None of the cosmetics look that great, and aren’t even exclusive. 
The Killers are so incapable of breaking lanterns, and require so many offerings to even have a chance, a fraction of bps awarded from previous events, and not enough fun

    You have to hook someone before you can break a lantern. It's not hard to do.

    I am very aware of how to break lanterns my man, my issue with them is that you don have time to get to the lanterns when they are on the hook, or you see a survivor, and go for them instead

    Most of my games killers seem to breaking lanterns just fine except for when it's the last person and the lanterns aren't close.

    No, it had a purpose: making as much money as possible. Why else were the lanterns so hard to find and later coins took so many points to get? BHVR wanted you to dump as much money as possible into this event. Grinding was secondary.

    90% of my games now, I am the only one to use an offering now, so I’m looking for far fewer

    Its a chance to get stuff for free. Don't like the cosmetics then you don't have to grind for them. I got what I wanted now I can sit back and play casually. Just wish I could spend my bp without collecting more envelopes, maxed out cause of this.

    I found a lantern nearly every game...and completed both survs. outfits... without spending any money. They have a store where you can spend money.

    I’m not saying it’s impossible. I’m just saying that finding them was way harder than it should have been, especially when you think of how slow Killer progression was, how long Survivor queues are, and the fact that it’s a limited time event. Sorry for trying to have a life and not constantly play DbD.

    Are you guys serious? Been playing Pig/Nurse/Hag and I've got 2 to 5 lanterns per match. I farmed 7 coins during the event and I didn't even play daily. (skipped around 6 days)

    Are you sure it's a dev problem and not you failing your job as a killer? :thinking:

    The only lacking thing about the event was the BP which were fewer than ever but that can be easily forgiven.

    Only thing I don't understand is why don't the lanterns have an auras like color for killers and survivors when they run a map. The Feng cosmetic pretty good so is the huntress but the ace not so much. How far are you from the lanterns after you hook someone??? Like I had no trouble with breaking lanterns after hooking

    The purpose was to have a fun event?

    I didn't really like it because survivors didn't help rach other, but having 3 cosmetics to unlock was pretty good.

    We got a Huntress ziggy piggy hat. But I would of rather they gave us a Rudolph head for the December event.

    For me, the best thing in this event is the song in main menu. In the beginning, i really want unlock the 3 outfit, but the sistem for acquire is terrible, so i go happy only with 6 coins and no more, really. The worst even i've played since the last summer.

    Then why did you post this if you did not run different cosmetic combos?
    Huntress looks nice when mixing her cosmetics with others
    Ace just looks good in general
    Fengs head can be mixed with anything
