I've stated this elsewhere, but I thought considering the entire point of the original post by @Beggar, I should address a standing to this.
The Legendaries for the Hollowed Woods are groundbreaking. These new Legendaries are not only versions of weapons the community has longing to see as Legendary status (Say.. the Dagger and Voodoo Doll), but I don't think the weapons were a well-conceived idea in that the community is Limited into hunting them now.
The problem with time-sensitive items in most MMORPGs (Not just TLOPO/POTCO) is that they create an urgency for people to Login. That isn't to say some time-sensitive content such as Hollowed Woods as a whole or the Bones weren't a good idea, but the exclusivity that exists to keep the event fresh couldn't have been put in at a crummier time.
I personally do not believe that the weapons should have been released as additional content, especially considering how far we are into the event, disregarding it's original departure date. Personally? I would've rather they saved the new Legendaries until the rerelease of the event next year, at the start. With the current algorithm to Loot-based content in TLOPO, obtaining one of the Legendary weapons for a player who doesn't have 8+ Hours per day to loot already causes an uproar, but when there are four of them atop of pre-existing Legendaries? No thank you.
(Also, on a sidenote, TLOPO Devs, if you check this post out for any reason at all, please consider removing El Patron's & Silver Freeze from event loot tables. Thanks.)
