3. Is there any possibility to get Composing option Now ?

1. Last time, I think it was base mob only, but kill count was not very high. Will probably be 4-5 times more
2. If your name is Jesus...
3. Doubtful as I am sure 1600 level buffs will arrive first

Attention... tl;dr alert, I repeat tl;dr alert... lol

I find it laughable that some EOC players are clamoring for weaker potions and/or ensuring good potions don't become available than recently in play... (hmmm to keep someone else from knocking you off the top of the rock?)

I'd urge HCS to consider potions similar to the Halloween or Ruby Cut Box this time. I think having more potent potions available to people who are active and plug in the effort during global quests, especially since they are bound, and the fact that apart from the AL 750 Christmas Box, it's been a LOOOONG time since we've seen a 750 donation potion. (Sahria's/Thornvine chest anyone?) But seriously, I think the only complaints about OP'd Event chests are coming from a certain strata of the community.

An somewhat related note to it, I think having good potions rewarded to those who participate so they can make their own leveling more effective, and not get the all to common boredom of leveling "taking too long"... is a good thing. As right now, I think giving people a boost to get through the more vicious level-gaps, along with easing the feeling about not advancing much into the game that makes some people leave FS as they simply can't spend as much time/money on the game as some of us have and do would be beneficial if it occurred on a more regular basis.



As to the event itself and Belaric's point, I DO agree that we should stick to the ultimate Ruby tier goal's kill quota, but also keep in mind that players in FS have been more tied down with RL and so there might not be as much activity to warrant a sizeable number. I know HCS is in Scotland, but even in the UK it is also likely the week before Spring Break and Mid Terms for colleges/universities starts to be kicking as it will in the US and a few other countries so some drop in activity in March might require a lower kill quota than some will be happy with HCS setting, as the kill quota SHOULD be attainable to do. Comparing current activity numbers to those around the times of previous global events should give a good idea where to set the bars for us to be shooting for, of which I'm confident HCS will do fine with this time due to the outcry last time, and legitimate, but frankly in my humble opinion no-brainers being cited.

I think that in summary, the threshold for ruby should be a legitimate challenge that we shouldn't be able to reach on the first 24 hours, however it should still be reasonably expected to be reached in the last 12-18 hours of the event due to people making last ditch pushes by major donors to FS to get that silver top 100 medal they missed out on last time.


Also, actual question to HCS in regards to the new gear... shall we expect them to work in tandem for a setup with either of two recent LEs we saw? Or setups that would lead to using a couple B-list/non crystalline sets more noteworthy after level 800 again? Just wondering in regards to that.

Anyhow, I rambled on WAYYYYY too long. (tl;dr much?) So yeah I'll just buzz off for now.

[Enzo13]

till how long is this event gonna take place?

[Tazarian]

Great news, I loved this event the first time around (cause you had to get XX number of kills and, could make gear).

As for the reward, leave it as is (AL 400/Sac 350, ect.). I find it to be good and, if you stack them right (with a Zombie Brew and other potions), you can certainly gain alot of levels.

A good point was raised with exams and such (real life stuff) so, HCS may wish to have a goal that is realistic with it inmind. However, make a total global number of kills needed and stick to it! Don't go changing the numbers to make it easier, nothing in life worth getting is ever easy (trust me, I'm married and....that should say it all LOL).

So, beware HCS! If you go changing the numbers, I will make sure you never get to drink another wonderful Canadian beer ever again! I'll just ship you Schooner beer only, even drunk and hammered the stuff is horrible. So, remember, your Canadian import of beer is on the line.

As one of the thrifty sorts, who never throw anything out, or use it without dire need, I have four of the chests from the last three events. I did check out my Emblazoned Royal Chest...there're still 1836 of those rascals out there in backpacks! This may be a really interesting event if some of those "older" potions and chests get dusted off.

You haven't seen the high level chests in the offers because they are on a rotation, wouldn't be as valuable if the same chest came out every month..

I'm guessing the XP Booster will be the next one out.

I don't think this will be a problem. It was only the first Global that they changed the kill quota when it was at 25 million or something like that. I do think that they keep going along with the extra ruby tier chest once we hit a certain amount of kills over the ruby tier.

till how long is this event gonna take place?

I believe it is 72 hours, may be wrong since its been a while since the last one.

Do keep in mind that this is a Global event, can't take in everyone's Spring Break and plan around them since they vary weeks in March.

[GoHalos]

[ludwigo]

The creatures that count towards the kill count spawn in every realm, LEs vary to their respected levels unless they are in the caves.

[gomezkilla]

Is there any reason why the event has not started yet? Its 13 hours past March 4th according to the game time...
