Does anyone else think this event is way to short?

[Disproves]

I think pretty much everyone is running to get nightshade. However getting 1.5k tokens in a week is pretty tough without any plats. Even for the better portal you have to pay about 60k for energy kits. I can remember tarlok event crafting a energy kit took 45minutes now it takes 2 hours? (Correct me if I'm wrong) Id really like this event extended. All the other events were long and everyone had a chance to get what they what'd without spending hours in tombs and without spending plat.

Anyone else agree with me here?

[Dex Scene]

Goblin event is always a short time event.
I remember last time, we didn't even had farmable energies.
But yeah getting nightshade for non plat users will be hard.
Iam a complete non plat user now.
Challenge is fun :)

They made it so it's super hard. Buying 750 plats gets you nightshade right away :)

It's okay tbh, They gave us Nilbog which his AA sounds fricken awesome. Sad that I wont be able to get Nightshade, but Nilbog cheers me up. :P

The AA of Nilbog is basically an SNS damage pool. I love it!

[Appeltjes]

I can't even run since the 4th boss is glitched and I get him quite often...

[kinzmet]

I was hoping I can get that 1500 tokens for nightshade using Altar, but It seems the altar is hard to spawn. Anyway, looks like STS is experimenting on someting new for future events.

[acewasabi]

i like it when event is not toooo long cos it's hard to maintain the effort to run every day. but nightshade is gonna require plat purchase for sure, either energy or to buy nightshade direct. nilbog is awesome though! shame its not tradeable!

[Kriticality]

Why you need plat for nightshade? I haven't run at all yet. Can't you just buy energy from cs and run it?

[Appeltjes]

Not everyone can afford spending a close to 1 million (I think) on energy.

It takes over 4m to get it.

[Kriticality]

It takes over 4m to get it.

Seems like a reasonable price. Shade is still 2.5-3m. Nightshade and shade both sold around 30-40m when they were exclusive. Fork up the 4m in energy or get in there and craft those energy kits. It will likely not be 4m when it's said and done. Maybe 1-2M and a lot of grinding. That seems like a good price for the pet to me.

Think of it like a Singe. Nightshade is essentially a Singe @ 4M price tag.

It's the solution to my "I need singe on all toons but I'm poor :(" problem?!

Too bad I spent my money on a singe .-. Oh well... My BBQ Porkchop will kick the butt of any Nightshade.

Nightshade immunity FTW!!

Nope. Might as well give up.

Altar dosent give extra tokens then?

[arfyarf]

How is it glitched?

[Enterradora]

to clarify, to get 1500 tokens took around 100 runs, at 15k energy its 1.5m, also u get the freebie energy every 8 hours, can craft energy and sometimes bosses drop a energy ball, so ill say the cost isnt more than 1m to get nightshade.

I already got whit forget energy from previous event

[Justno]

I agree with you, event is WAY to short. Normally events are at least 2 weeks long and give plenty of time to get the best items/pets from the vendor. I'm completely broke cus I just bought planar recipe and spent all gold on crafting relic. You can't even sell Nilbog to get some gold. Not every one has 5 hours spare a day to farm tombs and craft energy, and mot everyone can buy plat. This event should be extended for the F2P players to have a chance at getting NS

[Fyrce]

Get a relic, get guild to hunt altars, get portals for free.

[Kriticality]

Who would buy nilbog? It takes no time to get him.

On a side note, I'm really enjoying him. Super fast cool down on aa. :)

[Serancha]

Goblin event ran for a week the first time. It was Ursoth that ran for 3. People keep getting the two confused.

[Ratiomod]

Without buying energy, just farming those altars I made 400tokens day 1.
I probably couldnt do it without a guild. Because people invite everyone in the guild whet they open portal. So join a guild with decent online :)

[Fyrce]

Yep. I think our guild is now called Altar Hunters.

The thing is a I don't have 1m.. Or Id have nightshade in a hour..lol.. The bosses never give a good amount of tokens :/

[Kriticality]

The alter bosses give 17 and 26 respectively I think

This. The original goblin event last year was only a week long test event for the real ones that followed.

[butterspar]

I'm just enjoying the chance to stock up on energy kits, Gonna use them all on Ursoth event

The time does seem tight, but you do have the choice in the way you get nightshade:

1. If you want if free without buying energy for gold/plat, then you are gonna have to farm extremely hard for altars and energy essences. It's definitely feasible... Free, but not easy.

Or

2. You can take the shortcut and buy nightshade directly with tokens purchased for plat (750 plat to be precise).

I like the shorter duration... I find that when events last longer people have fun at first but after a couple of weeks start to get bored, and by the end feel like they will be happy never to see for example Helena or Tarlok ever again.

This event is short so... people will have an intense period of fun and then be sad when it's over... which is a better result imo :)

[Teh Zhi Hong]

Imo nightshade just needs a lot of time

I've spent 50k,for the relic and I'm at 550tokens atm with 70 plus energy essences so yea just some hard-core farming hahhaa

[Disproves]

The alter bosses give 17 and 26 respectively I think

Yeah it does. Atm im crafting a relic but I hear it's rare to find altars.

Yeah farming is pretty hard if you want to get it the free way, but altars are a big help!

[Farminer's]

I'm at 400 tokens with no bought energy.

Bought nightshade last night (usa time) without using any bought energies.
Altars and forged energy FTW.

Going for another nightshade for my level 13 warrior. (Anyone level 13 wanna team up?)

go go!

[epicrrr]

The first Goblin raid didnt even last a week I thinK and yeah getting to 1.5k token without plat is fun.

[Oursizes]

I recently got my nightshade less than an hour ago. Yesterday I had 400 tokens, today I got to 1.5k. I only bought 6-7 energies, rest were crafted, two donated by a guildmate. I ran the whole day today of free portals and energy runs/farming. Took me 12 hours(with breaks for chores and eating), and I got 1.1k. It is very do-able

[killarrow]

Free Portals:
Assuming you get 10 free portals in a week and re-skinned glob boss 10 x 26 = (260 tokens)

1 energy (5 plats/ 12-15k ) get you an average 10 tokens

Free energy
3 free energies to start with and 6 x 3 energies every day = 21 free energies (210 tokens). *

Farmed energy
farm and craft 5 every 2 hours x 7 days = 35 free energies (350 tokens) **


Total tokens from free energy = 260 + 210 + 350 = 820

What you may need to buy: 1500 - 820 = 680 tokens = 68 energy

For 680 energies you would need 68 tokens = 340 Plats or 986000 (energy bought @14500 per piece)

Nightshade is a pet worth more than 1m, if you could farm for energies for 4 hours and craft 10/ day, the gold you spend would be halved. Also thanks to STS for this event which has something for everyone - p2p, f2p, twinks and end gamer.


* There are free energy drops from the event boss is quite random and hence not included in the calculation** I had lots farmed from previous event which reduced the cost of first nightshade on main to zero (excluding pots)

If you farm energies, and with help of your guildies/friends, you will get 10+ portals everyday (not in a week).
Farming 20 forged energies in a day is easy too!
basically one may not need to buy single energy if they farm.

[Pcats]

you dont really need plat to get nightshade it took me 2 whole days without sleeping to hunt altars while farming energy then crafting. Here and there i switched to forged energy runs then back to altar hunting :) well good luck getting on nightshade he tops dova on dmg and health goodluck and may the force be with you getting nightshade its a very good pet but nilbog is pretty good too bye..

Yep, thanks to altars you don't have to spend as much money. Personally I didn't spend and gold at all (apart from potion money). Really don't think I could of made it without altars and forged energy!

[Bunny♥]

I dont think so, I managed to get my 2 toons with nightshades within 2 and a half days without spending any golds for the energies! How did u guys run this event? O.O~
