odd you say that cause i am in a 8x8 and getting 2-5 kills per square


I know where you are. And it's a 10 by 10. It still counts the blocked rim.

what place do you have to be to get a chest?


Any Realm at level 25 + that's 10 by 10 or bigger.

unless you mean treasure chests , which is not connected to global event and just happen randomly and seldomly : just kill mosquitos . buffs I would recommend : conserve, brewmaster and animal magnetism. Light foot if stam >2000ish. Use the global booster ( under loyalty potions) to get 4 kills per kill, just like the normal doubler.

then cool cause only doing the 8x8 made it easy getting the kills

What do you all think about the new potions?

Potions are not quite as epic as the previous event's, but I think better this way. I liked the way some of the more common hunting buffs were split out between two different potions, but I'd be interested in seeing the balance of choice once all done. Thinking the pots with AL will still get more love.

I will likely take one of each.. if the tier is unlocked of course. :)

Give it a few hours and I'm sure there'll be a hell of a lot more kills.

nice potions but it makes the game be easy, my view!


I guess should have PvP event too, event bounty smasher, ladder smasher or smasher global, etc... with top 100 during event, that would be really cool :wink:,
have always same events "hunting event" can be boring in a few months!


Sorry but i think PvP events is a horrible idea. Force people to kill each other and destroy each other's xp. PvP is one of those things you either like it or you dont so trying to force people who don't like it to do it without any proper setups (to attack or defend) is to much.

However a different style event with instead of a lot of little monsters trying titan style monsters or a combination could be a lot of fun

Maybe I'm just cynical but exactly how do you get 10,000 kills in 4 hours Lamium when you only have 790 max stamina? Also I notice your level doesn't match up with your max stam and playing time, are you blowing all your wages on the +25 stam upgrade every day :?:

Surely you wouldn't be trying to fool us lowly players would you? :?:

just to play devil's advocate, it could be a fun crash course in pvp setups for players that to this point have only ever worn suicide setups. xp comes and goes, perhaps if there is too much of a fear from some players, the cows could enable a "opt out" just for the event. of course if you opt out, you get nothing XD

If there is an opt out then i say go for it. But problem is you cant force a crash course because people would have to get gear for it. The moment they try to "force" (and i use that term very loosely) people to get gear other people will just sky rocket prices and everyone will complain about that. I really just dont see how PvP global events could work...not to mention the idea of the global event was to get everyone working together not against each other.

Off topic: Instead of 12.5 mil kills as per the norm for a global event, for a pvp event, have a # of xp sunk :P, example 125,000,000,000 xp sunk.(board, off the board, whatever lol ( ducks to avoid bein slapped by grim)



On topic: Good event, FREE pots, oh and *crosses fingers* for grim to make the next global critters drop some stuff/ invent, etc.

at least there would be some market in the AH.. last time i looked in there a tumbleweed hit me XD

and yeah, it doesn't fit the mold of a global event. call it a global bloodbath? doubt it'll ever happen, but pvp is one of the more fun aspects of the game. shame more players don't at least give it a shot.

Maybe we should keep the speculation about a global pvp event in this thread

Because I don't play the game much I have plenty of reserve stamina to use when it comes to event's like this.

This is the first global event I took part in because I wanted to show the players that the Dev's do hold an interest in playing the game and if I'm not mistaken, every other day there's a request for the dev's to play the game more.

As for the kills, I had loyalty tokens enough to buy a global doubler from the loyalty store which helped too.
