Still too early to complain now. Better to just do your share and keep your eyes on the count- wait for day three or four. Personally, I highly doubt that we will make Ruby to be honest and there are a few good reasons why. This event is mainly about stimulating the game economy one last time before DXp, for most of us I think the global is just an after sight. Its kind of like the second Christmas of FS. Another being that the personal goal for this GE is way too low for the community goal of 75M- it could be atleast 15-20k. I only spent 5k stamina on the 2 kill GE creatures and got nearly 15k kills so this is more than reasonable.
I think developers need to start reworking the way rewards are given out though. With how accessible and powerful theyve made composing it really needs to be the starting ground for the rewards. The chests from Bronze to Gold hardly even touch the levels you get from composing- 95% of us would end up trashing these if we won them. Its better they pick one chest that the majority of the community can find use in and increase the amount of those we get per tier- like how theyve done with the Darksun Stash II. Its just negative reinforcement when we get these shabby sub par chests, especially for those that invested a sizeable amount of their stamina towards it.
Insanity is when the sobbing slowly turns into laughter...

@skull... I'll just leave it be. I think the level of kills needed for the top tier on community working together is fine. Perhaps the others need to be increased.
Beyond that, I've pmed yoda in game so as to not derail this post even more.
Thanks HCS for the event.
FS, I hope you enjoy the event. I am. Prosperous smacking everybody! (o0

Having missed the last few of these I don't know how that figure will work for the global. My gut feeling is that it is too high.
Ordinarily with a x5 creature with this global I wouldn't say that. But uniquely with this global more people will concentrate at least a portion of their kills on the Halloween Revenant (x2 kill). Also this event is more associated with the Zombie Brew's instead of the global total. So the global goal itself takes a lower priority.
At this pace now we are on for just shy of the gold tier. But the rush to get kills to make the top #100 in the final moments may bring crystal. That is my hunch.

I predict gold tier, 'possibly crystal'. (but I doubt it)
Ruby tier was unrealistic last year, population numbers certainly haven't risen since then, so it is now merely even further out of reach. Sad really. Oh well, I've done my bit...

Which shield looks more epic?
or
This one does!
Though I get your point, nearly all of the newer epics look 'MEH' compared to the old ones.
You only need to look at the choker of time to see what I'm talking about...

Have to agree here - the new shield looks very dull and drab compared to earlier "epic" ones.
This new L2600 one looks like it was thrown together (graphically) in 5 mins

Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.
Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?
I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...

I have very similar feelings regarding the new shield (I know it was prepared a good while before the event started so the lack of time for graphic work was not the cause).
If at least that purplish goo thing on it was pulsing or something. I am gratefull we got a new (titan) epic for that slot but it could have been more impresive in terms of design.

Was wondering if we might get a similar thing (or have it included) as the "Hide Fragment Stash Logs" in the preferences for the coffins?
Thanks.
That is a great suggestion.
"Hide Container Logs"
Works for me.

Yes maybe if the goo was swirling around or something. Left me feeling disappointed when I saw it.I have very similar feelings regarding the new shield (I know it was prepared a good while before the event started so the lack of time for graphic work was not the cause).

Oh, and there is fierce Lag right now.

Is that because I decided to Titan hunt? 😖

Just noticed that Global Event Total got reduced to 50,000,000 rather than 75,000,000
Probably a good move. Makes it slightly more likely. The initial total was a little ambitious. 
#59
Posted 30 October 2016 - 21:43
The initial total was the same as last year.
And you seen we only reached silver last year I believe(40,000,000 kills)? 50,000,000 is a little more reasonable though, thanks.

Wow. Did they really. *Scratches head.* Wonder why they did that? Should have left it alone
