PREVIEW: Pocket Legends Guild Event - "The Mad Mage's Castle!"

[Nipunsky]

From what I understand, the extremely rare white dragon vanities will drop for anyone entering the dungeon?? So it is available to all of PL as drops? And a different vanity is available for gold if your guild wins?

At least that’s what I understood. Even if your guild doesn’t win you have a chance at looting a rare vanity. Correct me if I’m wrong.

The vanity that will drop is the silver looking drag set (1st picture)
The gold and white drag set will be from the vendor

I agree with the suggestion of having an individual participation "Reward" for the hard work of every players.

I thought plat can buy any item in the game.

Lol

this a good idea but my question is if the dev is working its unfair so maybe do the enemy dmg depends on the lvl of a player and dev isnt working.

Its a Myx lvl so dev won't work
Enemy difficulty depends on level of player as it is a solo map

I agreed with islamiyah, Make it fair to all level. No DEVs or Psyko, Just make the damages base on the player of every character so that it will be balance to all player. Also, pretty much cool because all players can play without any advantages and disadvantages

Player level, stats, and dev are all irrelevant really, if you want to be able to see the vendor i suggest trying to join pocket community if you haven't already. It's really not going to be any kind of competition PC will have 5 people for every 1 in other guilds lol i think 2 guilds disappeared from the leaderboards and pc doubled already large active numbers over night lol

Excellent point! Thank you. That's exactly why this shouldn't be a guild competition. There's no competition. It's broken. This was not how STS anticipated this very special event to play out, IMHO, exploiting the mechanics of the event for a one-guild "guild event" lol. In light of these developments, I strongly agree with imrandy and others who have voiced similar concerns. This should be for everyone who plays during the event, just like in every other event in PL history. No one should have to leave their guild in order to have a fair shot at this event. This is the most important event since the bsm preview. Some dynamics need to be seriously changed to properly honor this moment in Alterran history.

Additional supporting documentation :

I stand by my original comment.

The guild with the most amount of players running the maps will be the winner.

New guilds are irrelevant, people are in the guild they are in for the reason they are there... a few players shouldn't have to compete with many

I actually agree Dolloway. I don't know why, but this one just doesn't appeal to me

I've gotta agree. I have to think this is gonna play out as a two-horse race. And all the while, everyone in both guilds will be joining the other guild with an alt. So that no matter which guild prevails, they will have access to the reward.

I love the concept of the event, but I have to agree with others, a guild event is hard for the smaller guilds.

Agree. Great concept, but unfair to all but a select few guilds.

This should be a farming event for all people. Not just guild vs guild. That excludes everyone. Including a decent amount who purchase plat and are active. This should be just a farming event like every other one we have had. Keep white drag as a dropable item. Make myx drop it or something, along with all the other vanities you planned on giving the guild that won, access to.

Keep white drag rare and reduce its drop chance. Make it low, or make it the same way you planned on. Making it only tradable if you pay the plat to allow it to happen. Keep a forge like that PERMANENT. Just in case some who acquire white drag can craft it in the future. Although make it stashable to be put on other toons just to use it, though still not tradable. Alot of people hate character bound items.

This is no longer a fair event when the #1 guild literally gained 100+ l105s and well over 1k members in the span of 3-4 days just from people trying to get access to it.


There is also another way of going about this. I remember forgotten treasure event. The WHOLE community had to work together to acquire the forgotten treasure helm as a reward for (i think was breaking chest?) Cant remember that far back so well. Gives a community type contract, making us reach a certain goal, then allow us access to the vendor if we reach that goal. Adding the forge still to craft white drag into a tradable item with platinum.

I agree strongly with this.

I'm also glad people are finally coming to their senses and realizing that although the event is great, the idea behind the guild challenge was highly flawed from the beginning. Although it's possible any guild could win the event (i.e. anyone can win the lottery), it's highly improbable at this point, especially with all the gains Pocket Community made after the news of this event.

There will be a big change. I suspect this is why the date was set so far away which is strange.

I don't think the expectation was that people would exploit the concept of a guild competition and turn it into a one guild event. But obviously it's come to that. Such a shame. And yes, I fully agree with you considering the circumstances.

[Draebatad]

This should be a farming event for all people.

Most definitely.

[Oby]

I still strongly believe a brand new guild made for this could win, irregardless of even being close to the top 50 in the current guild leaderboard. The panic seems a bit unreal. The challenge seems fair. In the end, I don't care how the requirements work, the event is a grand idea, offers a fun experience and will result in more elite 105 weapons and amulets in the global market. Something to appreciate, for sure.

Such a change in heart. But glad you got your head straight now. This event is not fair at all.

Hopefully. There are about a half a dozen better suggestions for challenges on this thread that would be more inclusive and less easily exploited, including the one you suggested.

Its not the head wasnt headstrong before. He didnt count on people exploiting the way the event was going to work. Calm yourself oby.

[Cinco]

Just to be clear, the event does offer free farming content for all players: amulet (elite quest item) loot, mage cave crafting components, and the ‘White Lightning’ vanity items are all possible loot for anyone who runs the Mage Castle dungeon.

Thank you. The anticipation was that people would try their best in their own guilds, not flock to one guild to exploit the concept of a guild VS guild event. But yes, I am glad we're all on the same page now.

Thank you everyone for contributing to this important topic at hand.
