Preview - Pocket Legends' Nine Lives ;-)

[Cinco]

ITS OUR BIRTHDAY...
Pocket Legends turns NINE years old next week!


SO LET'S HAVE AN EVENT!
We'll be rolling out an updated 'Birfday Bones' event with a couple of cool new surprises!
+ Smash chests all over Alterra to find 'CRAZY ABE' the Birthday Event vendor.
+ Buy the 2019 Birthday Cake vanity helm and shield from Crazy Abe.
+ Wear both the 2019 Birthday Cake helm and shield for a chance to spawn 'Birfday Bones.'
+ Loot Birfday Bones' 2019 Party Hats and 'Nine Lives' shields!
+ Combine all of the Nine Lives Shields to get the 2019 special edition Level 105 Elite Birthday Buckler!
+ Collect all nine (9) of the 2019 Birthday Party Hats for an achievement and title... then use them to craft a special key item!
+ Combine the 2019 Birthday Party Hats and the Party House Key Recipe (drop from Birfday Bones) then find Crazy Abe to craft the key.
+ Use the 2019 Birthday Party House Key to enter the Party House portal in Forest Haven and ransack the King of Bling's gold-filled estate.

NOTE: This is not a leaderboard event.

Start time for the event is currently scheduled for 1:30pm Central on April 10th. Birfday Bones will be around 'til the 17th.
Crazy Abe and the Party House Portal will remain until 1:30pm Central on Monday, April 22nd - so you can craft / use house keys

Additional Stuff
+ Birfday Bones has a chance to drop a locked treasure chest called the "Birthday Box."
+ Birthday Boxes are stash-friendly, trade-friendly item packs that can be opened for 5 Platinum.
+ Opening a Birthday Box gives you a chance to loot gold, Elixir Flasks, Makeup Kits, Level 25 Elite Weapons and 'Ninth Guardian' vanity items.
+ "Elixir Flasks" are stash/trade-friendly item packs that contain one (1) Elixir (Experience, Damage, Insta-Loot) and can be opened for free.
+ NOTE: Opening an elixir flask will apply an elixir to your character and replace any existing elixir effect of the same type. Use wisely! Check your Avatar / Elixir Buffs before opening!!
+ "Makeup Kits" are stash/trade-friendly item packs that contain one (1) of the many 'Gaze' face items awarded during previous Events and can be opened for 10 Platinum.
+ NOTE: Opening a makeup kit will apply the kit contents to your character, over-ruling whatever 'face' you currently have! Examine the Makeup Kit and ensure the preview on your character is what you want before opening.
+ "Ninth Guardian" vanity sets are class-specific items (done this way to encourage trade) that form a 2-piece set that gives 2X Damge and 2X Speed in Legendary Event Zones (only)!

I always thought it was part of the fun to figure stuff out.

[TheUnity]

omg so close 2 more days will be getting this update im superrr excited :--)))

[Fwend]

How exciting. Its PL Birthday again soon.

Thank you for the event.

It will be fun searching for Crazy Abe and Birfday Bones boss. And collecting all the party hats and birthday shields.

Will the Birthday Party House Key give us unlimited access to the King of Bling's gold-filled estate? or just a one time access or limited to an hour access?

Thanks for this

The crafted Party House key can be used one time to enter the portal. It is my expectation that the required components (2019 Party Hats) will be abundant enough for players to do numerous runs during the event period. I'm currently tweaking the spawn rate for 'Birfday Bones' to support this and am considering allowing the 'Party House' zone to stay active for a few days after the primary event has come to an end for those who wish to sell/ stockpile the crafted keys.

[Fwend]

Thank you Cinco.

Those who are needing this gold farming map can certainly earn the key with persistence and a bit of farming.

Would you consider your Bot random question generator for access to the Party House portal in Forest Haven?

Loving the new Birthday box locked treasure chest idea, great fun for chance of many items we can get, New level 25 elites and Gaze faces for only 10 plat and the Ninth Guardian Vanity Set

[NukeDragon]

Love the new update about the event and look forward to it

The event goes live in 15 minutes. Get ready, get set...

I think the addition of item packs was a great idea as I am one of those players who never spends stuff on fake virutual currency and I keep buying these birthday boxes. I think boxes like this should be a thing in the next cap and you can choose to spend plat for a higher chance of gear than the gold version.

This will be my 7th birthday as I have been here since 2012 and I wouldn’t change any of the experiences for anything. This game helped me get my mind off a lot of crap in my life. This game plays a apart of shaping my life and I thank you for it. I think the future is bright for this game and hope we see an increase in new and returning players. Once a PL player always a PL player.

Cinco you are the only name that I know of really in the Sts community, but tell the guys they are doing a great job from me. Thank you for everything!
