The last time we had a "day" (Pirate's Day), I never saw any gear or items for sale in the shop. I played most of the day and not once did I see any pirate stuff. Now, with the Oktoberfest stuff, I played yesterday and today and haven't seen any Oktoberfest gear in fights as prizes nor in the shop. Am I not understanding how this works or is there a problem?? I would really like some cool new "event" gear.

They are usually Epic items so you have the same chance of finding them as you do finding a normal epic item. This is why you probably haven't seen any as to get them you would need to refresh your shop multiple times before actually seeing any. The same goes for finding them in missions your best bet on finding them in missions is to constantly do the shortest missions in each area so you get the maximum refreshed per day which will increase your chances of finding.

 

I myself haven't seen any of the latest items in my shop or missions however I have seen other users with them.

I got a common Bavarian hat in the shop with the first shop refresh after the event started, but I haven't received any other items since. In my experience they're not usually epic - common and rare event items occur often too - but they can be very hard to come by. I believe that it's very unlikely to be able to collect all the items without spending donuts on refreshing the shop, especially with shorter events like this (Christmas and Halloween are much longer events). Obviously that's part of the reason they put the special items in the game, as an incentive for players to buy and spend donuts. Mercifully they are only cosmetic changes (not inherently better in stats than any other item), usually they're pretty ugly and so far the items haven't changed from one year to the next so if you are still playing in a year you will have another chance to get them.

 

Cannonman's advice about missions is good. Also remember to check every mission in every zone after you level up, as they all refresh. In the past quite a few of my event item drops have been from duels, so try to duel every 10 minutes while you are online.

why am I not seeing any Oktoberfest items in mission eg. hats and pretzels? :S  Makes it kind of impossible to complete when they never seem to show up.  (angry)

I sometimes see the items, but most of the time they do nothing, nada, ziltch, zero for my stats, so i just never buy them, or use them. :) and i know what you're talking about Agrimm, the same can be said for items in the every day hero distress calls, like hints and so forth and so on. And it's nice to see you again Agrimm, i haven't seen you in the chat for a long time.  :)
