World A possible way to re-add discontinued items to the game

I'm certain you have at least heard of a few of these legacy items. First, what are they?

What I define a legacy item as, is an item that can be used in builds at levels, that were only available for a certain time period.

A list of these could be as follows:
- Hallowynn Mask
- Santa Hat, Coat, Pants, Boots
- Trick & Treat/Hallowynn 2016 Set
- Factory Helmet (kind of an outlier, but according to Wynndata, it is now discontinued, as it was a Quest item that is no longer available, and this does have some identifications to it, meaning it has potential in Lv 50-60 builds.)

So, how exactly would these be reintroduced? Quite simple, just through completing an already existing quest.

Of course, edits to the quest would have to be made to include the rewards:

Spoiler: Macabre Masquerade

[4/4] Mask Merchant: To thank you for your help, I'll give you a mask similar to the very one you fought. Don't worry, I was extra sure to make sure it had no curse!

Spoiler: An Iron Heart Part II

[7/10] Dr. Urelix: I will not only give you a substantial amount of emeralds, but also two pieces of the highest quality iron armor in return for your silence on my little operation here.

- For Craftmas Chaos, you get the Santa Hat and Coat, since you got the hat in 2014, and the Coat since it balances out with Meaningful Holiday.
- For Meaningful Holiday, you get the Santa Pants because the quest is essentially a revamped version of the old Craftmas Quest in 2013, and the Santa Boots because you got that in 2016.
- A Grave Mistake will reward you with Trick & Treat, similar to how it did in 2016.

Now you might say, this will kill the novelty of the old items, no longer making them worth a lot, and to that, I would say it is a valid point, and would be a tough beast to tackle if these were to come back, so, the best I could do would be to give the new items separate names, as well as them just being regular armor, not dyed or using a custom head as a model.

Spoiler: Item Name Changes

Hallowynn Mask -> Cursed Nemract Mask
Santa Hat -> Crystalline Selchar Hat
Santa Coat -> Snowy Lusuco Coat
Santa Pants -> Singed Nesaak Leggings
Santa Boots -> Aristocratic Detlas Walkers
Trick -> Spook
Treat -> Candy

While this does sound like 'I can't do this so therefore no one can' thread, I would say that because of the fact that these items can be used for some builds compared to other old items (Seeker's Aid, Contest Wynner Cap, Yellow Content Cap of Fame, Pumpkin Helmet, Wynnter Fair Souvenirs) and replacements of other items (Bear Head > Bear Mask, Impure Morph Gold > Morph Gold (or removed), and Ba'al's Betrayal > Takan's Treachery), I'd say there is a valid reason as to why they might be brought back, even if they might be irrelevant items in a level-range meta (Therck Set for 1-15 as an example), they can still benefit newer players.

Better idea: Use these new names to make identical items at the same level that are obtained normally (E.G from mobs and loot chests). No dyes or pumpkin. Then the legacy items would keep their authenticity AND their name
