Preview - The Arcane Watercraft Rally boat racing event!

[Gnozzie]

Hi is it possible to increase the points for last place? I ran 30 rounds with only 2 times 3rd place and 28 times 4th place.
And the reason i got 3rd place is the other player have gotten dc

In my opinion before adding a racing game like this you should first fix your servers. It's ok to have 300-400 ping in normal events but racing is all about incredibly low ping and detail.

Also the tier points are astronomical, I would love it if it was a normal event like ursoth, Halloween etc which is better to have high tier points, but this racing is difficult for many players and very tiring to play for long periods of time.
Anyway that's my opinion

[Bameely]

The amount of points for not finishing on first place is miserable

At least u got points. I get 0 in 4th place cos still stuck in lap 1 lol

Pretty disappointing. It's like you didn't read any feedback.
No significant change, exactly the same racing event, but on the water.
The gap between position 1 and 4 is impressive, even between 1 and 2, more than double.
Make 20k points, to reach plat, 5 by 5 points, in addition to having to farm the energies.
Even if you won every race (impossible) it would be more than 400 runs.
All competing against your own ping, which is the main thing in this event.
Not to mention the measly amount of token.
I'd better skip this event again.

Thank you anyway.

Trust, for eg there are lots of players who aren’t good at these kind of event and end up 4th most of the time. Trying to reach plat like that is ridiculous. Nice rewards but points needs / type of event is trash af. I refer the old boss type event where everyone gets same amount of point killing a boss. Skipping this event. Aint nobody got time for dat.

Nahhh, this event aint it STS. I like the old events where you can chill while killing a boss in event map and not having to worry about winning a race. Plus, its hard for the people who aren’t good at racing event as this and end up getting 4th place most time, which would be ridiculous trying to get plat. The whole theme of this event is bad even though it’s something new, as someone said “if they wanted to play racing game, they would go play need for speed or something”. I’m out till this Event ends, its causing too much frustration of not coming 1st place every time. I wanna enjoy the event not be frustrated. Bring back the old killing boss type event. Once again, this ain’t it. It should not be brought again.

Plat tier are 19000 points wow…. I got like 5 point per run seriously!!… i know its totally my fault for being last of the race, but can dev at least give more points each round? Thanks you. Oh i forgot to mention that i also need time to farm for energy 🥹

Definitely it’s ridiculous. Reason why I’m out. The whole idea of racing event in MMO game is bad. Bring back good old fighting boss type event!

Everyone is talking about 3840 runs for plat tier but did anyone checked how much time it will take to do this many runs?

With 300-400 ping, it took me 1:30-1:20mins for one run.... So it will take around 90 hours of EVENT gameplay( not included energy farming time in hauntlet).

90 hours means almost 6 hours for every single day till 14 days.

There is no way I can spend this much of time when I already have a job which takes most of my time( I am not a lb runner who can run with sleepless nights)

I know tier rewards are worth the points but what about those players who have a life beyond gaming? You guys better consider changing the teir points or I am done with this event.

Me doing 3800 runs to get plat. Hell no, rather not play 🥱

[Itsl33__]

If the plat req is brought down to like 12-13 k and points per game is increased (for eg 15 pts for 4th place) i guarantee you Sts, more player will be motived and play the event.

Can the boosts be moved to the middle of the river? epecially the ones near the corners, maybe add a cooldown on how fast you can pick up another? The boosts near the wall are to hard to get without slowing yourself down, making it nearly impossible to catch the person in front who takes the middle boost and optimal path.

[Tekila]

The gap between being first and second is so big. Event if the key to win is to have a good Ping boosting first and following the optimal path. There is no way to reach for the 1st who boosts at the beginning because he has a better Ping than you when he follows the optimal path so being 2nd is more punitive and unpleasant.

I think I spend more time in hauntlet farming energy.

You guys sure this is boat racing event cuz I'm spending more time farming energy then the actual event

Actually if we suppose that you are a casual player that won’t buy energy event kit you have to farm hauntlet for energy.
If you have a SS you take 20s average per hauntlet first room run that results in average to a 1 energy essence per run for my experience maybe am I unlucky. (If you don’t have a ss you can forget the event you’ll juste waste your time)
Now we will consider that you are a top tier pilote that always win the 1st place non stop so in 384 runs you are platine tier. It takes you 20x3x384=23040sec = 384 min = 6,4 hours of farming energy in hauntlet in order to get enough energy to reach plat as casual player.
Moreover you will need (if your 25 craft slots are open) 384%25=16 more hours of crafting cause you can’t half craft. If you craft while running hauntlet you can save some time btw.
So in order to get enough energy to reac plat now since 2nd place is 40points to is approximately 16-23 hours of farming and crafting non stop.
Then now LB time for runs is 1m and few seconds let’s say it’s 1min to make it easier.
You will after 16-23hours of energy farming and crafting run 384 times so 384 minutes that is 6.4 hours.
Nevertheless we have 2 weeks event it is possible but laborious.
Would be great to drop more energy on farming.

Conclusion if you want to reach plat tier during this event you will need to sacrifice your own lifetime farming crafting running for a weak or a full day or night that is unaffordable for casuals or just buy some energy kits to run the event as if it was not energy based but it is somehow expensive in golds or plats for the casual player that I am I’d rather buy some jewels on auc x)

Anyway thx space time for adding rewards on gold tier I think that it will be enough for me cause it’s not worth to ruin yourself IRL for some items IG and I’m not willing to buy energy kits cause I’m not a LB runner yet.
Now I’ll enjoy the event thank you for the update STS.

@Cinco is there any way we are able to check how many we time we have finished first, second, etc? Like keeping progress of bosses, similar to other events

ran for around an hour, im at 1200 points. get gud kid. . . hahaha

[Immortal_Blood]

also, the 50 energy I used vanished very fast... o or maybe i was having fun>?

[arcaneping]

I love the racing game. Its bring heartbeats, fresh gameplay and 'enjoyable IF the points and tier is make sense' . Surely u need to wet your hand and cramped ur mother finger to get on the plat...

I love to challenge the dev to play and reach plat...

[TheBoon]

increase your point system, +5 will take you forever

[Itsl33__]

Hey Sts, what’s going on here. At the end of race, I was clearly ahead of 4th (in 3rd pos) player yet I came 4th. Am i missing something here or what? Happened multiple times.

[TheBoon]

happened to me also, just by now

[Undershooting]

I think you should set like a time reward instead of fastest, for example if you beat 1 min and 10 sec you get 50 points regardless whether if you came 4th or 1st, if you beat that time, you get full points. On top of that if you get first, you get extra tokens as a reward
