Thanks for the preview :)

Very tribal looking vanity set. Apparently the weapons are loot and the helm/armor are vendor items.

I like the fact that gold tier is back to 35k points, that the event lasts a week, and that there are gold farming and discounted enchantments components. The change of scenery for the event map sounds fun, too.

I wonder if the points are harder to earn than usual, since gold tier is 35k, the event is a week long and the map/mobs have some changes. Will find out soon enough.

Awesome, thanks Cinco. Is the drop rate of vanities going to be similar to the last event?

wow.. can't wait for the event.
the vanity sets is so cool.

Lord Cinco, 1 week is for grinding the points, right?
so what about the time limit on gold farming zone?

Thanks in advance, you did a great job!

Probably 48 hours for the rewards phase, Magile.

Excited for gold farming, but have you guys figured a way to counter the bots there better?

Why of course they have, they make you pick up your gold now. In all seriousness, that didn't work very well as we saw not long ago. The random 2-digit alpha-numeric code to enter an event gold farming reward map that I suggested would 100% end automation there. But, it's too much of an interruption, so...

I hate to be that guy, but I’m going to say that I have one problem with this event. I love the sets I think they are so amazing.

My problem: Why are we still killing blue and yellow skeletons if the event sets look like that? Can we not get a change of mob killing and kill a boss that looks something like the vanity sets. I’m pretty tired of seeing blue and yellow skeletons that don’t match the theme of the events and the scenery around them.

Other than that feedback, I can’t wait to play!

I really think you need to start taking in to consideration the mob look based on the sets in future events because I think little things like that make a huge difference!

The event mobs wearing gear that identifies with the current event loot/vanity sets would be pretty amazing! Nice feedback, Chas.

If the bots know their Pocket Legends trivia they will be fine.

Good suggestion. I varied the theme of the monsters to fit visually with the new 'Forest Fury' environment - but they're still skeletons (normal and gold variants).
The vanity item set would be a wonderful theme to play out among the monsters but we only had resources to build these assets for the player characters. We'll see what can be done for this in future events... especially if I transition the monsters to be player races that can use the event vanity items by default (unlike their huge-headed skeleton friends).

This is great news, Cinco! Thank you for continuing to listen to us.

I know we will find out soon enough. But I am not sure if your bot countermeasure implementation is asking for a randomized 2-digit code to be entered back in or if it's asking random PL trivia questions in English. The code is short, and those who are lacking in basic English literacy skills would not be hampered with the code challenge, but a trivia question might throw some people off due to a language barrier. In any case, thanks again for adding a bot countermeasure system, can't wait to see it in action.

Does this also mean that gold no longer needs to be picked up in the gold farming event maps?

I am very much looking forward to this event :)

Looking forward to an awesome event!

Cinco, I have questions.
What does Myx drop if skeles and boss drops vanity weapons?
Also exactly when does the event end and gold farming start?
Finally do all tiers get enchant discounts?

To encourage the purchase of plat elixirs? Stat pets were disabled in event maps long ago. This is nothing new.

Happy Thanksgiving, fellow Americans.

Hi Cinco! Can there be only one boss in the gold farming zones instead of having multiple enemies scattered everywhere? It would also be cool if there were elixers that make gold skeletons spawn everywhere that drop huge bonuses of gold of up to 50m gold for gold tier players unlike bronze or silver who get up to 10m(bronze) and 25m(silver) at most. You can make the drops range from 25k gold to the maximums for each tier.

50m gold drops would ruin the economy :/

Cinco,

Thanks again for adding my bot countermeasure suggestion ( https://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?429188-Automation-countermeasure-for-event-tiered-gold-farming-maps ) that I long advocated for to the event reward phase gold farming maps. I had suggested a challenge be presented to the player, if they failed they'd be dropped back into town, and that's exactly what you ended up doing, even though your team was concerned it would cause too much of an interruption to game play, you did end up adding it. Now I'd like to provide some simple feedback...

Do we really need two keymasters asking trivia questions twice per run? Isn't once enough? Please consider removing the second gate.

In the recent past you changed gold from automatically being looted into inventory to having to be manually picked up by each player as an effort to attempt to combat bots. Now that you have added your variation of my bot countermeasure suggestion, there is no need to have players pick up gold in the event reward phase gold maps. Doing both is overkill and definitely interrupts the flow of the game. I am sure most here would agree with this. I suggest doing one, or the other, but most definitely not doing both. Sticking with just the trivia question, asked once per run, with gold automatically being looted, seems like a satisfying solution for everyone.

Edit: I still maintain that entering a randomized 2-digit alpha-numeric code is 100% secure in comparison to 3 multiple choice click options, where they get a 1 in 3 chance of getting it right each time.

Thank you for this update and for listening to us. Looking forward to the CTF and Winterfest events.

There is two version of forest fury
Tradable and non-tradable, the one that cost gold was non tradable and that one that cost plat was tradable
You either bought it with plat or with gold
There is no way to make it tradable :(
