One of the most successful parts of the halloween event last year, in my opinion, was the introduction of temporarily OP food item (pumpkins). I feel like this really boosted the wild for a while, especially at a time when there weren't as many people on as there seem to be now. Imagine if we brought this boost to wilderness back with the new online count- it would be madness! Which is why I propose...
Make a new item - "chocolate heart" (looks like a box of chocolates. Though, honestly, it could just be a really lazy red heart sprite lmao) which is basically just the pumpkin from halloween, easily obtainable and heals 28(?) hp each. Either temporarily replace old pumpkin patch with hearts or make a new patch right in edge. This would allow everyone on RSCR to celebrate love the only way they know how - by beating the shit out of each other, taking everyone else's items, and trash-talking on global.
If you wanted to make a more permanent rare, could additionally have random drops in wild of candy hearts in different colors, kind of like those disgusting candy hearts with the phrases on them. Have them heal just like easter eggs, but appear as random drops in wilderness during valentines day (maybe at a slightly higher rate than masks). Could have them spawn in pink, orange, pastel blue, yellow, pastel green, and have examine be either stupid phrases like on real candy hearts, or instead foul-mouthed PK disses.
Just a thought! I feel like this event could also be effective without a 2xp, since I feel like we've never really had a holiday event that doesn't coincide with 2xp.
