Halloween 2011 and Thanksgiving 2011

Post by Death »

The turkeys have returned! Their numbers have been culled from the first run and they have been weakened. Take this opportunity to finish them
off.

They are located just outside the Halloween event portal. A healer has been provided. For the brave, the turkeys are spawning in Felucca, in the same area.

Gone are the splitting turkey leaders, only the giant turkeys and lesser turkeys remain. Tokens can still be found occasionally on the lesser turkeys.

The giant turkeys are a lot weaker than before and will reward an item to the players who kill it, provided they have loot rights (Goes in your pack).

If you are truly fortunate, a special 'horn of plenty' can be rewarded to you. When locked down in your house, it will make a lovely centerpiece and give out a Thanksgiving food item every so often.

The turkeys will remain only for the Thanksgiving weekend. The event's end date to be determined.

The Halloween event will be concluding come December. The final portions of the storyline will be revealed and the final 2 bosses will be made available for the first time. Any quests that are pending from the Halloween event, should be completed before the event is over, as you will not have the opportunity to complete them until next Halloween.

We hope you have a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving.

Remember, when killing turkeys to keep your eyes out for a Repond slayer SC-0 Mace weapon. I know one of them has a weapon like that in their pack.

Thanksgiving Event Update

The turkeys have fled back to their nest in Ilshenar, Spirituality. They are being spawned and controlled by a large monstrosity of a bird name "Grosse Giblets".

Those who fight and kill the turkeys in the nest will occasionally spawn Grosse Giblets.

There are 3 new special items that can be rewarded to player who do enough damage. It is said that you can obtain a unique mace and a unique shield as well as a comical decorative item. Of course, those seeking a horn of plenty will want to slay this bird or the giant turkeys.

Hope everyone enjoys the next stage of this event.

Be sure to get in the last remaining time for the Halloween and Thanksgiving events.

The gates are still opened but not for long!

Christmas approaches and once the Christmas event takes off, the other 2 events will end until next year.

Be sure to wrap up your quests as you will not be able to do so until next year. The Halloween event will return next year with many of the same quests. The land will change with time with some of the old and some of the new in the mix.

I have been lucky enough to get a few gravy boats. Just curious if anyone got the mace and what the stats were on it.

I am trying so hard to get this item so I can equip it on tHoG and chase Doc around while taunting him.

The Thanksgiving event will wrap up sometime soon. Players still have a bit of time to wrap up their kills.

Once the spawners no longer respawn the turkeys and giant turkeys, you will know the event is officially over for this year. Cleanup will then begin to restore the area back to the harpy nest.

The Halloween event will also be wrapping up shortly. Because the event was a limited time, complete any of your pending quests as you may not get a chance to do so until next year, if the quest remains the same (Not all quests will be exactly the same).

All Halloween items that have been tagged with the "Timeline: To be deleted after Halloween event" will be removed. Players in the Halloween event area will be ejected once the event is over, if they are still inside.

We hope all players have enjoyed the events brought to you by AOV in October and November and enjoy the Christmas event in December.
