And if they release 3*** tack, like the Elves pack as well the saddle cloth looks Classical as well.

As far as I know you can also use these on Western horses. There is only one kind of Elves Pack and Christmas Pack and they are suitable for both disciplines.

My problem is, in regards to better prize, where do we stop? One year they could give us smaller black market items in half the doors, like lower valued items in the categories, then bigger amounts of store items and equus in the other half. I am quite confident that people would still complain, as it isn't the expensive stuff like hera packs, harmony packs, and nyx packs, still just stuff considered "cheap" and "worthless".

I think my point is, is that it is normal for us to want bigger and better things. Next year people could be happy with those smaller black market items as they are an improvement, but then the one after they are unhappy with them, expecting better than the previous year.

It would be nice if they could change the calendar up and put some higher valued items in there, but I think it's partly done to keep expectations low. Also because, if we constantly get good things, it would lower their value and, as a result, make them "cheap" and "worthless" because we get them so often.

But I can see how others would not care much for them. Regardless, it's more about the countdown for me than the actual gifts we get from the calendar.

Back in the early days (early 2010s), I think we did get higher value BM items from the Calendar on some days. But events were much less common than they are now, so items won weren't just thrown on a player's pile like they are now.

If we weren't swimming in items from divines, exchanges, and events, and I had to use passes to buy items from the Black Market ( I genuinely can't remember the last time I did that, it's been ages), I'd expect better items in the Calendar, but that's not the case, so I'm fine with the smaller items.

The poor ranking points need some love though One of my main goals the last couple of years has been to increase my Score, so I'll take all the easy points I can get

But they *look* like Classical cloths.


The game clearly favours Classical disciplines (and it's shown, Western came much later after they removed and *gutted* Barrel racing, and we STILL don't have a breed for Reining what is going on...), HOWEVER, they gave us Western so they should cater to both.
Western needs more love.
