Hi there Everyone.

 

Tired of her life in the Web of Chaos, the gargantuan cosmic spider - Rosmeriat - left the void to lay claim to the lands of Erildath. Her children follow her like soldiers to a queen, laying waste to all that is living, and paving the foundations for her new world-shattering empire.

 

Brother Richard requires your presence at the Cathedral of Ways! The Quest, "Reign of Rosmeriat" awaits you!

 

Cosmic Spider (Level 25)

 

Counts as 1 kill.

 

Dark Cosmic Spider (Level 25)

 

Counts as 5 kills.

 

The latest Global Event in Fallen Sword is now underway! In the Event, the Community must work together to destroy the Cosmic Spiders infesting the Realms.

 

Each player must earn a personal target for increasingly powerful potion rewards (mouse over the event info on the World page for more details) while also helping the Community to attain the best total kills possible, unlocking the rewards for all.

 

Additionally, if you end the event in the Top 100 Contributors, you will receive 1 extra Nebulous Ruby Chest on top of what the Community unlocks!

 

There is a helpful forum post RIGHT HERE full of information on Global hunting grounds and so on compiled from the Community by Egami.

 

The Global Event shall be live until 14:00 Server Time on the 28th of September 2021.

 

Good luck everyone!

[BigGrim]

suggested buffs include frags: QF RF

Why Quest Finder and Resource Finder? Those make rolls specific to Quest Items and Resources specifically. They don't increase your chances of other drops and neither Spider has Quest Items or Resources.

As with any global, you need the following buffs:
Distil, Pride, Brewing Master (remove after consuming potions)
Potions:
Global Booster (optional, best to do without if you are concerned about frags)
Animal Magnetism, Conserve
Find Item, Lady Luck (optional, use only if you are most concerned about frags)
Cast buffs:
Reckoning
Quest Hunter (for the quest portion only, remove afterward for more efficient firing of Reckoning)

Best places to hunt globals of any kind, see Egami's thread, which is linked in the OP

3. drop stashes containing:

Thanks for the info on the frag stashes. Buff wise though you got it messed up.
Suggested Buffs would be: Cons, AM, Reckoning, Unbreakable (skip LF as with higher AM and reckoning you don't need LF), Global Booster
Frag buffs added on top of normal suggested would be: Lady Luck, Find Item, and depending on how frag finder works maybe that and skip global booster so you can do max number of hunts targeting only the dark 5 kill count spiders. Also would use only AM 500 as well so that no stamina was wasted moving. For extra kick use a zombie brew, Pride and Buff Enhancer along with Brewing Master to get longer durations from your potions to have the time to burn more stamina looking for frags.

then my experience of using less stam and getting more drops is happestance?
when i did frag DQs, my "FI and reck" setups results were worse (roughly) percentage-wise than when i did my "FI reck QF and RF" setups.


anecdotal? i say it is my experience.

wishful thinking? again my experience, less stam used is less stam used.

They are unnecessary buffs for any global creature..
and they make reckoning less efficient since when they hit on those buffs, which are unneeded and do nothing, they detract from the whole purpose of reckoning...

 

Every event you post YOUR list of things that YOU think are needed for it... Some are repetitions of what is already included in Egami's post, which is linked to in every news post of an event.

This would be great if you weren't posting erroneous misinformation as well...
Please check your facts.... I know you're trying to help, but giving bad information only confuses new players and irritates those of us who know better

Yes. Those skills roll AFTER the initial roll failed. They ONLY target resources and Quest items, thus only those can drop when they activate.

Penny your wasting your time on them. They perpetually always think they are right on the forum. I've seen it on many threads and they will just keep arguing.

 

It is kind of funny when BG and several experienced players are telling him why hes incorrect and the rationale behind it. Then he comes back and say no your wrong cause thats what i've always done. It's very clear to anyone who understands the reckoning buff, that less buffs are desirable when frag hunting. You want reckoning to kick in on FI, Lady Luck, or Frag Finder mainly and secondly on conserve to save on stam. 

 

Before using potions, have Brew Master (potion ideally), Distil (only available via potion), and Pride (only available via potion) to increase the duration and level of other potions. 

 

Find Item (potion ideally) + Lady Luck (only available via potion) + Conserve (potion ideally) + Animal Magnetism (potion ideally) + Reckoning (potion ideally) + Frag Finder (only available via potion) (new composing skill)  -- All that is needed for frag farming provided your above level 100 (You may need stat raising skills to kill global monsters if below level 100, from what I recall).

 

Back to topic, I like the new take of a quest + global event. I don't think I've seen that before. The global event monsters gave a nice variety of frags. Successful event in my opinion.

thanks for the event!

 

just one thing. this one skill seems out of place. if its not too late to change it out for Last Ditch or maybe Anchored?

Cool, new chest for collection, could use more backpack slots, lol.

We had discussion over PM about dealing with the new global monsters for low levels, given no info on the new creatures on UFSG yet. After my hunt backup with SSI. I'm going to say it's easy enough to 1-hit with just gears Lvl50 or below. Just need to watch out for 2% misses. About 1400 armor to fully block the dark cosmic all the time without summon shield imp, as you have speculated. Some players in a good guild might able to get that much, not me though .  Thanks for helping.

 

I think Spook Smashers (Halloween) was one of such quest + global event. I had terrible experience with that one. without looking at UFSG I assumed Pesky Spook (Global) are weaker than the other global creatures as they count as 1 kill while other types count as 2 or 5. Then BOOM, I lost over 1/3 of Unstoppable Guild Achievement(I think top 250 Kill Streak slot as well). More than half year of works were undone    .

i thought it was terrible

 

person being able to kill 150 SE per day, the .SE death list is only spider since they released

 

this shows that you can kill more spiders per day than rest of the S.E 

 

easy respaw

I bet if people had everything else on farm it would be similar. 

[ColtColt]

i did not think of that 

 

kil  the same S.E in a different respawn, i've seen it

 

but about 150 a day like spiders??in same spots do you think it works??

 

just giving my opinion, not complaining

I bet if people had everything else on farm it would be similar.
