I just wanted to see what everyone thinks about having shard names attached to event items. Personally I think it is ridiculous and takes you out of the experience. In a role-play sense, you have no idea that other shards exist. The entire shard is self-contained. Referencing the name of the world is out of place.
It might even encourage collectors to get a shard collection of an item. Cross-shard trading of rare event items is bad enough already. Now they are going to open the door for someone to collect 13 of the same item, just with different shard names?
