Bag of Candies

Q u o t e:
First of all this isn't a QQ post, I don't mind having to keep trying for the bag but I am curious if the drop rate for the bag itself is *intended* so low. I mean, from what I see on the forums and from everyone I play with in-game, they either haven't gotten a bag yet or have only gotten one. With all the RNG we have for this event, it is a tad discouraging that we must get an ultra rare bag 2+ times from the adorations.

Just my two cents, maybe a error was made while inputting the drop rates for the stuff? Or perhaps everyone I have interacted with in the community has terrible luck

Thanks for reading.

Q u o t e:
It depends on the achievements; some we've removed from the meta, others have had their drop rates adjusted to be more reasonable, and still others are fine as they are. Understand that that statement does not mean that all achievements based on chance are being removed from the meta, because that is not so. The achievement I referenced specifically required you to get 20 different masks from something on a one-hour cooldown, resulting in a probability much lower than, say, Have Keg, Will Travel.

We've no intention of removing chance entirely from the meta achievements, but the ones that still apply have reasonable acquisition rates.

Q u o t e:
Those of you who haven't gotten one at this point are unlucky. The drop rate is now no less than any other consumable item used for the holiday (with the exception of the bracelets, which don't factor into this.)
