Preview - "The Skeleton Shrine" Group PVE Event! New DEATHKNIGHT Set!

[Cinco]

The Skeletons are in retreat!

The Skeleton Shrine
Myxx the Mad Mage has sent her army home to the underworld... to rest and recover in preparation for a renewed assault on Alterra.
Little does she know that our realm's Legendary heroes are hot on their heels, ready to stomp their bony faces into the ash!

Event Timing
The fun begins at 12am on Friday the 24th and runs 'til 11:59pm on Sunday the 26th.
Winners have 48hrs immediately following the event to get the vanities, Enchantment discounts and gold loot.

Host / Join Support
You'll be able to host a single-player or multi-player instance of the "Skeleton Shrine" directly!
Content is balanced for 4 players in 'multi' (like 'Shimmering Shores') and for 1 player in 'single' (like original 'Mad Mage's Castle').

Group PVE / Personal Score Event
This PVE event is a personal score event with full support for groups (like 'Shores')!
All players in the event zone will get score credit for monsters killed within standard loot / experience range.

Victory Tiers
Collect 25k points to unlock Bronze Tier. Get 75k points for Silver. 100k for Gold Tier.
All Winners get access to all pieces of the new "Deathknight" vanity set!
Each tier gets different discounts on Enchantments and different gold-farming zones.

Myxx Loot
This time around, Myxx has a chance to drop Amulets and three new vanity weapons:
- The Black Gold Bow
- The Golden Cobra Staff
- The White Lightning Sword
(all other Myxx loot has been removed)



Good luck to everyone!

Sounds like fun, although the 100k for gold tier sounds really high compared to the 35k of past events, unless we will be having a different scoring system with more bosses or higher points awarded for kills.

Looks like cool! Exciting

[samuel_bonas]

Yeah boss I think you skipped alot of levels . I think you should take it slow. You know instead of 100k, how about 50k?

[Draebatad]

Looks like a very fun event, can't wait! Thanks for this one.

The graphics of the "Deathknight" vanity look pretty strange compared to the other bright and well-made vanities.

There's also one thing missing: How much each enemy kill is worth!

[Fwend]

How exciting, the new map looks like it could be in Blacksmoke mountain?

The Deathknight set is so evil and cool looking. Love the purple glow added to the black.

Thank you for adjusting solo mode to make killing easier, and we all loved the team mode last event.

Thank you for including gold farming maps as a reward again.

The points system has increased 100k is a huge task for those busy casual players as well as difficult for those under level 85.

Can you please give us more details to the points system, how many points each skeleton and boss like last event?

Some are asking for amulets and weapons to be purchased from the event vendor.

Again a huge hug to Cinco and his team for working so hard giving us these events. We appreciate you.

Looks cool, can't wait!

I like that Gold Tier is hard to hit, it should be -- otherwise there will be too much gold in circulation.

[Mine AGK]

Yeah, 100k even on 2x the original points is ALOT. I have a football game ill be attending over the weekend in a different state. Wont have enough time to even do maybe even 50k. 35k points seems effecient enough and doesnt take up a whole weekend for people.

Yes, people need amulets and 2h weapons from the vendor. Would be nice ti be able to get another ammy for gold farming and even for pvp play style.

[EpicFlash]

Looking great, thanks Cinco!

In all honesty, i could see some people reaching 100k if pets were usable. I can also see a bunch of people giving up to get gold tier because of the amount of time that needs to be put in. Maybe 50k for gold tier? Might be a bit more attainable and bring a bigger turnout for people.

[Xyzther]

Maybe make it 15, 25 and 35 again, but just take away the gold farming maps?

[Jilsponie]

It really all depends on the scoring system, and mobs we have to kill. If we can get 500+ points per run, and runs are fast (2-3 minutes) it won't be that bad. But if it's like last event where we get 300 in 5+ minutes, I could see myself sitting this out completely.

I keep finding myself needing to decide if I should get the 1 time vanities on my main, or do the event with an alt that has better luck enchanting. Meaning no matter what, I'm not getting the full potential/experience the event has to offer.

The set looks REALLY cool but is there any way it could get a different effect? I think the glow doesn't really match the whole "death" theme besides the purple and it's really just an overused effect at this point. (Although it does look nice on some sets)

I like this suggestion very much.

They should set it 1k,2.5k and 3.5k. Making it 15,25, and 35 will require work. We need gold farming for enchanting amulets.
