LET'S GO TO THE BEACH!
After weeks of getting pummeled in the dreary darkness of the 'Mad Mage's Castle,' the evil MYXX and her cadre of skeletal warriors have decided to find respite on an oft overlooked isle in the lower Humania chain. Shimmering Shores! A temperate holiday paradise embraced by wide sandy beaches and studded with luxurious cabanas. MYXX's trip to the shores would go utterly unnoticed were it not for the fact that MYXX and her pals are die-hard villains who can't keep themselves from scaring the locals, running off the tourists and smashing all the cool tiki artifacts. We'll be going to kick some sand in MYXX's face and grab a few of these new electrifying 'Zap' vanity pieces as souvenirs!
TIMING
The Shimmering Shores Event is scheduled to begin at 12am Friday the 10th and end at 11:59pm on Sunday (Central time).
Bronze, Silver and Gold Tier winners will have two days to buy items from the prize vendor, run the gold-farming zones and enjoy discount Enchantments from Augey and Alfie.

BALANCE and LOOT
Even though this event is based on individual score, the content has been balanced for teams.
The event portal offers the option to 'Go Solo' or 'Go Multi' (so you can party-up and vacation together or storm the beach by your bad self)!
Ok'Tal and War Bird Pet buffs will not apply when adventuring on Shimmering Shores.
Myxx has a chance to drop the 'Black Gold' vanity sword:
...and the 'Angelic Blue Persistence' helm (that can be used to complete the Blue Angel set):
Good luck to all!!
