Seasonal ducat items

History and Impact


The very first seasonal ducat items was for Halloween in 2020. Ever since the early access release of NORTHWIND, players have been suggesting for a robux-paid store that has holiday items just like NORTHWIND's predecessor, The Northern Frontier. The Ducat Store, was then added for NORTHWIND in October 16th. In October 30th, the Halloween event came. It was a rushed event with barely any changes to the map to signify the Halloween spirit. The main attraction of the Halloween event, and this will be the main attractions to all holiday event so forth, were the items available in the Ducat Store.. The player-base is used to how the market works when applying seasonal paid items. A holiday comes, the developers add new items in the store, players mass buy these limited-time items, then players sell the items for a high price after some time. A simple brooch paid for 800 ducats can be worth 20k; Whilst spending 800 ducats for a regular ducat item that isn't from a holiday event will be sold for around 4k pounds.

Trivia:

 * There was only 1 holiday brooch for Halloween, but in the Thanksgiving and Christmas events, there were 2 brooches.
 * In the Thanksgiving event, the Cornucopia brooch could be bought for 800 Ducats while the Maple Leaf was only 600.
 * During the Christmas event, there used to be an available outfit called the Evergreen Coat with Black Vest. Players complained that this item is just a brighter shade of green compared to the Green Coat with Black Vest. A day later, the Evergreen Coat was removed. And then was a sudden surge of people wanting to get the Evergreen Coat. The Evergreen Coat is perhaps one of the rarest items in the game.
