The Hauntlet is under NEW management! Today, Thursday 1/29 at 1:30pm CST through Thursday 2/5 at 1:30pm CST, The Gauntlet is open and taking victims--err--heroes!

IMPORTANT UPDATE: A few changes to The Gauntlet will go in tomorrow (1/30). The leaderboards will by split by class and the top 100 for each class will receive prizes, as outlined below. Hauntlet coins will drop again for successful completion. Also, to clarify, the Courage egg is tradable. The Ankh kits, Respec Scrolls and Banners are not. And, last but not least, all bosses do have a chance to drop gold (up to 250 for Jarl, up to 500 for Arachna and Krunch).

For a limited time the regular enemies of The Hauntlet have been replaced with different mobs and world bosses to create The Gauntlet. The Gauntlet is free to run (no energy required) and open to all levels, but beware! It's far more difficult than the original Hauntlet. Run through and complete The Gauntlet to earn points and climb the leaderboards. At the end of the event, the top leaders will receive special rewards!

Players will also notice that there is a timer in the dungeon, but your time will not affect your leaderboard standing. :) It's just for fun! How fast do you think YOU can run it?

Sorry but even though we spent almost 2 weeks commenting on warriors skills u launch another content like that?
I have to say, im realy disapointed

Does loot not drop from the gauntlet at all? I haven't seen a thing and when I asked in guild no one else had seen anything drop?

So it's spend a ton on pots, hope you land a spot on the lb or you get nothing at all?

Or does loot drop but very rarely? I'm just confused. If there is no loot then what's the point of running besides the lb prizes? Gold stink?

Top 100 spots will be all rogue and mages. You guys boxed out the warriors. If not too late please change to top 35 per class. It's really the only fair way to run this.

Thanks!

I see what you guys are talking about. I'm sure I can have a talk with the guys about it. Stay tuned. :)

Also, I promise we aren't ignoring Warriors. Just like we aren't ignoring mages. Here is the reasoning behind waiting on buffs/nerfs: http://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?205864-Warriors-we-want-to-play-to!&p=2024459&viewfull=1#post2024459

I was so excited when this came alive, but is totally disapointed, we just EARN points, nothing else and we doesn't even earn Hauntlet Coins, So what's the point of this ?!

Thanks STS but I really dislike this, can at least add some loot to the bosses, we're just burning ankhs and Potions for a chance to gt 15 respect scrolls and 100 ankhs ( This barely will compensate the time and efford to run the Gauntlet )

It really isnt all that hard, try a bit of strategy to how you play which you will find will help you burn off less ankhs as well ^.^

Its a weekender cheeky giggle come on bud at least tell me how many sugars you take in your tea :)

im really dissapointed whit this... the top 100 prices are just banners lol... why not something like 1000 plat for top 100, top 25 3000 plat top 10 8000 plat, top 3 20000 plat and top 1 50000 plat? platinum prices are fairly better and we can got some low prices when we uping the points

Remember guys, it's a free event and just for fun. :)

As for the leaderboards, Carapace is already at work on splitting out the LB's by class. The patch will have to go through testing but we will get that live tomorrow. Don't worry, all of the points that you accumulate between now and then will still be there.

It's a great concept and I was really looking forward to it but for the "average" player all it translates to is wasting gold on pots and ankhs. There's no nothing.. The bosses could have dropped some gold at the end or something.

We are already drained on gold as it is, this just adds more of a loss. No point in running if you have a job or a family and can't be on nonstop for a lb spot. Spend a mill in pots for what?

I really don't get it, why do you.have test something when you implemented the event already?

There are sooo many freads about warrior...and yet you have to test???

If you implement tomorrow lb splitted by class.I want you to reset points.

Was soo excited about this event but yet not thought rightfully how to run this.

No fantasy? Maybe you need some holidays..

Sometimes there is more to life then just the gold or items you accumulate in game.

Sometimes its fun to run to be one of the few that will ever get that sweet looking banner that only a handful will be able in the bigger scheme of things.

Take a bit of pride in your gaming efforts that you managed to achieve something that others havnt been able to.

Reminds me of popping a Glacian from locked for the first time, I sold the pet off ewww however the Arcane banner I got that day is still the same banner I run around with on my mage till this very day!

Also there is no APs involved and if the rewards for the winners isnt tradeable then no profit to be gained.

Pride however in my personal opinion is absolutely priceless.


Have a giggle and have a laugh.

What a boring event!
Another event for high geared players (which are the plat users). Unfair for those with regular gears for it will take sometime for them to finish the run. High-geared players could run twice or thrice faster than a regular geared player. So definitely there will be no chance for this regular players to get on lb unless they will be invited by the high geared once which i doubt. You created an event that only few will benefit. I know its a "competition" thing. However for a regular player (non-plat user) having a simple banner after getting a number of points is a big thing for them. I think more players would be happy if its just a simple "free respec" weekend event.

01-29-2015, 04:39 PM
I like the idea of making haunlet more Interesting but prize is banner is kinda meh. I ran one time and decided im done. Last part with two boss I got one shot twice by jarl. Its not hard kiting him but still not worth to run over over just for banner and ankhs etc. Its nice to have something without energy though. Im curious can the bosses drop any decent loot? If not perhaps add some or a certain chest or have new coin gaunlet coin to make it a bit more rewarding with prizes also.

This is a competition. Better geared players can run faster. Other players have to run more to compensate. That's why people want better gear because it's better. It's already being changed to best in each class. The complaining in here is too much. Don't want to run it? Good news, there are tons of other things to do. Should be about fun. LOL at the 50k plat for running 2 minute gauntlet runs. This is a little surprise event. It's cool. Classes are only competing with the same classes after the next update. It will be fair and fun for some or fair and not fun/worth it to others. I think it's an awesome thing STS. You can always support your friends that ARE running it by being in their party if they need. That's what I'll be doing.

At five minutes a run, you could be a MILLIONAIRE in a measly 166 hours and 40 minutes, and considering we have 168 hours to do the runs that gives you a good hour and 20 minutes for all the other things you need to complete in the next 7 days.

REMIEM. It's free sure. Why not just make it a TIER thing for banner. This is so much endless grinding. Especially for those that have lives and work.

During energy event yes it all come down to who can afford it. But this is basically come down to who has no lives and it isn't exactly for everyone if not everyone going to earn anything from it.

I think the problem here is why didn't STG address this even before launching the event. It says a lot about how they view things.

I mean if it's an oversight, we can let it slide. But it has come to a point it seems like they don't care about balance anymore. They have said they are addressing it but with all these actions one can only wonder.

Incompetence in the court room can get you away with the crime. Lack of integrity is a definite jail sentence. It is a fine line between Incompetence and integrity at times.

There's a glitch regarding of when you die and revive it automatically changes to ( elixir run) I don't know if this was intended or what?

Also, you guys should scale down the poison of each enemy they seem to be too high. When I use my rogue krunch just one hits me and I'm done, dead
Hope you guys fix if they weren't intended

OK then will put off running till some sort of reward is in effect. Atm while it's fun, it's not worth it. No tokens (can we get tokens retroactively based on score when update comes on Jan 30?) and nothing special to buy with the tokens, and trying for lb when its already overrun with people arcaned to the teeth isn't something I'd like to sweat over.

Instead of gold can bosses also have chance of dropping egg or something?


And since when minispiders put out poison pool?

Got around 100 gold everytime I run it which is basically nothing compare to pots that I waste and the leaderboard eventhough its split by class,I don't have 7+ hours to play to be at the leaderboard.So I would prefer our "energy" event because their is a good thing I receive after each tier so my gold and pots don't go waste.
A suggestion from me because this is the first gauntlet is either raise the gold that drop from the bosses or give us banner after reach certain point for example 2000 to 3000?
And btw STS that Arachna and Crunch boss combo is really tricky,seriously.Most of the time after Arachna stun lock me I ended up smashed by Crunch and dead.

My opinion is I give STS an A for effort on the Gauntlet.

Of course that means my grade on implementation is gonna be lower. For me the problem is simple but let me try and articulate my experience and why the implementation missed the mark just a bit.

By the time I was able to log in after work I think the last place on the leader board already had well over 300 points. I try running the gauntlet anyway but guess what... No loot, OK a tiny bit of gold but really nothing.

So my chance at the leaderboard is non existent by the time I log in and there is no other incentive for me to run. I think just some simple drops from the bosses that include locked crates, a few ankh, an elixer here or there, or some sort of currency like 10 gauntlet coins would make me want to run event without a chance at the leader board. So it doesn't have to be new gear or special event items, it just needs to be something that has value whether it is tradable or not.

I think for STS it is a good thing if players run these maps and use up resources like pots, ankh, and elixers. That means those players have to replenish those resources which ultimately means someone has to buy plat.

So yes, nice first attempt at an event like this but I need more incentive to play, not much more but something.

Serancha
01-29-2015, 10:47 PM
I like the fact that it's challenging, and a cool idea. However, we again encounter the same problem we had in the winter event as well as with the Tombs and Arena. If Risk does not equal Reward, what incentive do players have to participate?

The difficulty levels in game have been improving in the past several months, but there is a lot that needs to be addressed in the sense that the risk and effort we are putting out is not being rewarded in any real way. For this event in particular, 500 gold doesn't compensate for half the potions required in a Gauntlet run, never mind the Ankh usage. 100 ankhs for leaderboard winners will reimburse those people for a fraction of the ankhs they use to get there. The banner is nice and I think that's cool, but overall it is just not worth it when we could spend the time farming for things to sell.

Most people I have spoken to ran it 2 or 3 times and stopped. This is because without any possible loot to balance the cost, the only ones who can afford this event are those with a lot of extra money available to them - which ironically means they already have Courage the Lion and can afford endless ankhs. So unless someone has a lot of time and money and really wants the banner, there's really no point.



What's really sad is that you can make a whole pile of gold (as well as plat rewards) by sitting in town popping locks. You also get a decent chance at arcane items by doing that.

What can you get for actually playing the game? 500 gold and maybe a chance at a banner. Or if you run arena, you have a 1 in a million shot at a fossil or a 1/500 chance at a pendant recipe.

Nice.
But, this event is the worst, In my opinion. It's hard (especially the Krunch and Arachna Boss Section),No rewards/loot per run, It's almost impossible to be in Leaderboard.I prefer doing farming or elite than doing Gauntlet. Aaaand I prefer the Original Hauntlet than the current Gauntlet.
I'm dissapointed :/

u forgot that the lb will be top 100 of each class the current one was just showing top25 so u actually have a failry good chance at that banner it is better than those events lb where the plat player just uses plat and tops lb.

The Hauntlet is under NEW management! Today, Thursday 1/29 at 1:30pm CST through Thursday 2/5 at 1:30pm CST, The Gauntlet is open and taking victims--err--heroes!

IMPORTANT UPDATE: A few changes to The Gauntlet will go in tomorrow (1/30). The leaderboards will by split by class and the top 100 for each class will receive prizes, as outlined below. Hauntlet coins will drop again for successful completion. Also, to clarify, the Courage egg is tradable. The Ankh kits, Respec Scrolls and Banners are not. And, last but not least, all bosses do have a chance to drop gold (up to 250 for Jarl, up to 500 for Arachna and Krunch).

For a limited time the regular enemies of The Hauntlet have been replaced with different mobs and world bosses to create The Gauntlet. The Gauntlet is free to run (no energy required) and open to all levels, but beware! It's far more difficult than the original Hauntlet. Run through and complete The Gauntlet to earn points and climb the leaderboards. At the end of the event, the top leaders will receive special rewards!

Players will also notice that there is a timer in the dungeon, but your time will not affect your leaderboard standing. :) It's just for fun! How fast do you think YOU can run it?

Hello guys :)

You guys have made a fantastic Gauntlet event !!!
But pls focus on the things people hate or want.
I know this just for fun and i don't have ant problem with it.
But can you guys think about: Lvl expansion 41-46, warrior skills and more gold rewards for quest.

Thx guys :P
And hope there wil coming more updates.

Notice to the public by fellow gauntlet runner:

Do not complain about gold reward an ankhs consumption this is a mini event and a chance to experience a scaled down version of a big event running for the event leaderboard.

IMO the difficulty is ok running at level 13.

Suggestion: A new banner where you have goat skull design over a time run banner for the fastest gauntlet run, no separate board obviously those in the top 100 by class will have the chance to get the fastest time gauntlet run.

Personally, I love this event. At least everybody can participate without spending a singe penny for entrance. Fair play to StS team

For me this event isn't funny...
Only TOP 100 get Prize...
Rest can only play and see what TOP 100 take...

Why we can't buy for points items ?
Event funny only for NO-LIFES and PRO players with pro teams...
IN 30 minuts they got 200 points...

Event = 2/10

Gauntlet is nice experiment, and we definitely need more mini events like this.

For me as a casual player - I know that I will never be in any LB - this kind of events COULD be fun. The problem is that when I have time to play I usually run with pugs. And the event bosses especially in the last room seem to be too hard. If you are left alone facing that spider and his boy friend, I do not consider it fun.

I no play because it fun :)
I want get prize.
If i have time and i stay in town 24/7 it funny.
If i need money and need drop = isn't funny.

That mine opinion.

+ Bosses very hard - Spider PRO... :)
If you no have team you always get deads...

Thanks for all the great feedback everyone! This is our first time running this event so the feedback is very helpful and will be taken into account before running this event again. We're going to update it today with the leaderboards split by class so that will help all you warriors and mages.

I'm glad to hear that some of you are having lots of fun with this event. Our goal is to give you more small events like this that can give you new and fun experiences in AL while we work on larger features like the next expansion. Please keep the feedback coming and let me know if you have ideas for other events you'd like to see!

I mean it is frustrating if you do an effort to get on the lb and in the end you have nothing! It doesen't matter if you are 101th or 150th... the fact is that you miss the leaderboard just by a few points, and except of the hauntlet coins you have wasted much but earned quite nothing.

Possible to speed up the warriors at pve? I usually push my gale ahead then stop a while, take a long breath and turn around where I see a warrior struggling to keep his feets moving. It's pity but annoying for me and I don't know why nobody wants to share this thing.

Agree.

Warriors are still junk in pve

Arachna cocoon bug

Screen freeze

Too many armor for bosses.

This event is for endgame only, I dont feel fun because I have warrior in endgame, and other class ib lower level.

Also thanks for this awesome event. I'm a hardcore player and I ran this event all day...so I've noticed a few bugs:
-the spiders of the first arena spawn to late.
-after the both bosses are dead and u die, when u re-spawn u get another coin so that's like 2 coins per run.
thanks
And the answer of rem's question is: my faster run was of 1 minute and 55 seconds and we all are arcane users and pros :D I couldn't run more faster then that.

Usually I always have a complaint about events, and event though the rewards are not the best, this is really a fun event. It pushes for teamwork and unity as a grp. It also is not to over whelming like most usual events, fun simple and to the point I like it. I also agree with trueson I noticed the spider spawns to be a bit slow towards the end even at low levels. We stand around and wait for last 2 to spawn. Over all happy, I wouldnt mind seeing the guantlet aspect reach tombs and mines... ive always wondered how many watchers tombs have I ran?

Maybe you have to run x hours a day to get the banner. If you dont have much money, you will lose all at potions and ankhs!

After we die once in the Gauntlet, the normal run automatically turns into elixir run. Is that intentional or a bug? If a bug just thought I'd bring it to your notice. Btw nice little event and that banner is beautiful!

Did you use Ankh to revive? If so it's always been this way - plat/ankh = elixir run

I play as mage and the event is costing me 15k gold so far, im at lb with guaranteed banner. I could have gone even further, but the rewards are not appealing enough to spend more time on this as i can just buy hundreds of ankhs.

I hardly die, and even if i do, there is absolutely nothing i could have done better to not die - wrong spot at wrong time.

I see no point in using ankhs on this event.

Finally, if ur short of cash, then perhaps u need to spend more time farming rather than complaining on here about smth u have certainly no clue about. After all every single map and event requires/ed one to use pots (except for mages). Many people have been playing for years to get where they are now, i.e., the point where gold is not an issue.

Here is our feedback for the Developers.

This is our first event btw, so not sure if the other ones worked this way or not, but, we would have preferred to see the entry point for 'the Gauntlet' somewhere else, and not overriding 'the Hauntlet'. We needed to finish up Sigrun's quest (and quest for destroying the cannons as well) and were not able to get in through the normal Hauntlet access point. Luckily we were still able to get to them via the Quest log.

However, once we completed the quest, were back at square one, and culdn't get back to the 'normal' Hauntlet anymore (to earn coins and exp). So basically, we can't do any Hauntlet runs until this event ends. Was planning on using that as part of my tomb/mines/hauntlet rotation since I'm currently on my week long XP boost elixer! (And yes, we tried the Gauntlet and got our butts handed to us on a plate, we're new at this still, heh).

So not life ending or anything, just slightly inconvenient. Maybe next time the event comes around we'll be experienced enough to not go squish quite as fast.
