Yeah, ive had myxx spwan only three times as i have no plat. Even with the spawn, the drops are random and not a guarantee

Depending on clear time, you may get to kill Myxx around 3-4 times for 15 plat, however the drop rate of rare vanities by Myxx is still very very low.

Since we get double points for the myxx skeletons we kill does that mean we get double gold from the skeletons we kill in the vault?

Ill also be hoping to see the helm\armor to complete the qtr stat weapons for L50. Would be awesome to recieve the same set bonuse as their L100 brothers.

That would be cool

Which reminds me, did the new vanities get added to the forge, like white drag, so that the gold bought versions can be crafted to trade friendly versions later on at people's convenience? Makes sense that they add all the new vanities there since white drag is already there. Just means a little revenue stream that is always available in return for the feature. I haven't hit the myxx maze or hyper maze lately to check. Perhaps someone else has?

Yeah I agree with this let us craft it when we get the plats . More money can go into the game and everyone that farmed and earn the tier get there tradable set when pay day come around or Allowance. Well at least some sort of ticket to be able to craft 1 set latter

U can get ~10.5 runs/myxx plat elixir. The drop rates is way too high. ~20 runs and a drop will most likely happen. Just have to be efficient.

There’s always one that complains... always needs more more more, it was their choice to waste time on getting top 5, for fame and recognition, is that not enough? I mean maybe some sort of ranking banners that are rewarded when you get a certain position?

Or then again, if top 5 do get rewards, make it so lower ranks also get rewards but lower the rewards lesser.

Lol if there was a prize for being on leadersboard, I think the list will be different. Players really look bad when they complain about every event that STS provides. All the events that have been released, we should be thankful for an event.

I realized that it’s not the number that benefits u. It’s the drops that are the rewards. I really can’t complain about 35 vanity drops and those aren’t eggs vanities. 2k plat is probably the best pl investment I have ever done.

We want the majority of the community to be happy. If we raise our voices, the concerns are legitimate. And our concerns usually get addressed in future updates. Most everything was fixed for this event. :D

There is one minor setback. The golden and devil gaze faces were not included at the prize vendor this time - probably an honest to God oversight. I do know some did the event with those faces being a part of their reason to hit a tier. Maybe next time these faces can be added back. Overall, a very well done event. Thank you, Cinco and team!

I don't care who are the top 5. The idea was that if someone puts that much time in, they might get something special out of it. People who attain a 5x point score beyond gold tier is quite an achievement, right? And if there was some extra incentive to become a top 5 scoring player during an event, be it pvp or pve, I can see many more people putting the time and effort in for whatever unique award might be awaiting them. It was just an idea. Thanks and gl on the prize phase everyone! Awesome event.

If you change the 2x points per kill to 1pt, that will cut the top 5 tier to 2.5xgold tier. When you count the myxx 30pts/run, it contributes to the score by a lot. Is it consider an achievement? It depends on the standard of the person or how they see it as an achievement. Not really an achievement to be honest.

Should there be a prize for heavy plat spender during the event? I doubt that will happen.

Crybabyalert and Ansemfnord, the top two leaderboard scoring players during this event, spent 40+ hours in three days. That's quite a workload. More than the typical American work week of 40 hours, completed in just three days. Much respect!

If we are considering full time workers, then the typical American actually work an average of 47hrs/week. To be honest, no one know if they spent 40+ hours. They scored half of what I scored and I spent less than 12hrs of farming because all of my runs were with myxx/4x combo and classy. Work efficiently and the stress will be less in life.

But then...not all can run myxx and 4x combo continously...
