I have wraps and a cloak from previous versions of the festival, can they be upgraded with the current ingredients or do I need to start over and make new gear?
you can upgrade, but it will be a ingredient grind.

Yeah, I knew about the ingredient grind. Wasn't sure from that page if the old items could be upgraded though.
If they can it's sweet, got a leg up on getting my cloak and wraps to where I want them this time around.
And getting a couple of those red augments will be nice too...
IMO the Mimic Hunt was an easier grind for Mabar junk (giggles) than Night Revels.
Turbine listened to players and added the loot to the Nigh Revels event (hahaha got what you all wanted with more grind).
The upshot is that the Mimic Event will get new loot.
