Preview - Frosted Downs Winter Racing Event!

[Cinco]

The Dragon Brood threat has been neutralized. Cladius the Cursed has been neutralized. Now, it's time to celebrate our success with a good old fashioned victory lap! On a track against your fellow Legends, that is.

For the next two weeks in Arcane Legends (1/14 - 11/28) don your racing helmet and goggles for the Frosted Downs Racing Event!



To get started, visit Windmoore, Kraag or Vardan Valley to speak to Ilsa to learn more about the event. Joining is simple! Head through the portal (no energy required!) and select a cart to race. Each race is three (3) laps around the track. Collect boosts and Hustle Buck tokens along the track as you go. But, beware of ice traps! Hitting a patch of ice will cause you to lose control temporarily. You'll collect event points and bonus tokens at the end of the race. The better you place, the more tokens you'll receive:

• First Place gets 50 Event Points and +20 Bonus Hustle Bucks
• Second Place gets 20 Event Points and +10 Bonus Hustle Bucks
• Third Place gets 10 Event Points and +5 Bonus Hustle Bucks
• Fourth Place gets 5 Event Points and +1 Bonus Hustle Buck

Controls:

• Accelerate: 'Gas' Pedal
• Steer: Left and Right buttons or joystick.
• Boost: 'Boost' Button (Collect Boost refills around the track)

Honor Guild Battlegrounds

Thought that was it for the preview? SURPRISE! There's more! In this update we've also added Honor Guild Battlegrounds PvP.

In traditional Honor PvP fashion this takes the well known Guild Battlegrounds format, but evens the playing field by requiring a full set of Honor PvP gear to participate.

To initiate an Honor Guild Challenge, simply select Guild Honor PvP when setting up your challenge.



The rest should look pretty familiar from there. All participants will have to equip their honor gear before being admitted to the battleground.




That's it for now, folks! We hope you have a great week, and whether you're on the track or on the battleground, we wish you luck! See you next week.

Has this post really been here since the 7th of Jan? Dang I must be blind, looks fun!

Red line title should be top 10 imo. Great event and honor bg finally

[matthew (flash)]

all i ask is for the ice to be a different color, maybe an ice purple..or even a lucky green. Im sorry cinco...not inclined to get them..since the set i have is already great and a great pose.

[evilmorty]

Its says (no energy required to join) does that apply after the free 3 energy are gone? Or i'll have to farm essence? Someone clarify (old player returning to al)

[Argoub]

I just saw the energy not required , sorry for the missed attention , how will the lb work then is it just spam the event to collect as much points ?

I guess the lb goes to the people with absolutely no social life. Maybe it was worded wrong

I'm sorry, octavos - but these are not furniture items. They're vanities. You don't have a set of ice sculpture vanity armor, helmet and weapon for your Legend yet :-)

Like the previous racing event, you earn event points by racing. If you win the race you'll earn the most points. 2nd, 3rd and 4th places also get points (but not as many).

LB rewards for this one are for Overall only - as class distinction is not relevant when you're racing.

There will be a separate LB for fastest times but this 'fastest times' LB does not grant any rewards.

[Undershooting]

Ahhh since the rewards are very similar , would be nice if you consider adding some sort of vanity pieces for top 10?

Thx for the answer cinco , something just came on my mind while thinking bout the event , if the racing event is non energy , wouldn't botters make use of this and keep running ? Sorry for the lot of questions ^^)
