Christmas event

[Red Squirrel]

For those wondering about the lack of updates, I've been busy with the christmas event. I want to have it fully ready by Dec 1st and fire it up. Will be an ongoing event for the whole month.

Some of the goodies will include peerless resources, including unobtainable ones like captured essence - so we can at least get some in the game before the release of missing peerless.

I see most people probably patched and can't connect, thats the first thing I'll fix once I'm done the event.

Yeah that would be good. Otherwise the all month long Christmas thing will be good. I'm out probably half of the month on vacation, so at least I won't miss out.

Actually this is what I got so far, this is draft though so changes are not set in stone.

Code: Select all

These will be stockings that have a chance to drop as loot on the mobs. The mobs will be ninja/archer elves and other misc stuff including a possessed factory mixing blade that does bleed attack.

All mobs will also drop coal, which is just for aestetic, but I might make a sub event where one who gathers the most wins, or something. It will be heavy, making this a challenge.

If it is going to be a crazy fast spawn rate or fast disappearing bodies... can you make the stocking appear in our bags?

is it the same coal that dropped as a first year xmas reward on osi? IIRC, it could be used to change the color on some items thru a bug. My characters were all positive noto, so they all got the dates.

And diseased bark too?

Diseased bark = Lady Melisande (Who's coded but no quest for her yet). So diseased bark and captured essence might pop up on a rare occasion (Not currently attainable).

Greatly anticipating this event. December is a busy month for me in the office, but to heck with work.

Will we have a way to get any of the Christmas deco?

Spawn rate wont be as bad but they'll tend to surprise you since they're ninjas, and its one item to pull out rather then a bunch. So easier to loot. There will be about 1/5 to 1/3 chance of the stocking to drop. I still have to play with rates though.
