I feel the Event was, and is, a great idea. I think it is also great to see all this feedback to make the next such Event (hint-hint, HCs!) even better… It is great that so many players are pumped for this event.

I like that the potions are bound. If you could, include more options across the board so that GvGers, etc., could use them as well – with benefits that don’t affect their rank and status.

When’s the next one?!


Hehe we gonne make it! Well done communitie.

Ye players were sure pumped up for the event ... about 300 people logged on a few minutes before event would have started :P

All bosses were complaining of a nasty cold hitting their workers. They couldn't come to work.

It could have some improvements to make it even better.

I can tell you where the evil invaders are! Constantly spawning too! I got 400 plus in twenty minutes. But I've got better things to do then stay here all day going click...click...click.
MARPOLO ISLAND, and I suspect any of the smaller realms where the elites hang out. I'm not near any of those so it's an educated guess, but..... Anyway, Marpolo Island is a sure thing. Go get "em guys!

Hey Cows,

Why not extend another FSP offer for the event?

While there are many good features which have come out of this event, the cows have sadly shown their determination to reward mediocrity at the expense of Fallensword as a whole, and at the expense of the wider community.

So many of the features of Fallensword which reward mediocrity are the ones which so sorely need fixing.

Example:

[*:7p371mzr] The Arena: for so long rewarded people, not for skill, but for luck. This is now being addressed.
[*:7p371mzr] PvP Ladder: Again, rewards luck over skill. This has been an issue for a long time, cows have very selective reading when it comes to dealing with threads/tickets raised.
[*:7p371mzr] GvG: Rewards those who trade/farm rating from guilds, and punishes those who excel in winning most of their conflicts.
[*:7p371mzr] Global Event: Fosters greed and individualism amongst min:max players rather than encouraging community spirit.
In each of the categories above it's usually only a few bad apples giving a bad name, but it highlights one underlying problem HCS overlook time and time again.

Hopefully the bovines come in on Monday, and mull things over and take on board feedback when considering their long term plans for Fallensword.



Well said bry. +1

I'm doing my part and adding about 5000 kills to the equation... like others have said, 250 kills is nothing really. Took me all of 7 minutes to do that. I realize not everyone has huge amounts of stam, but a good minimum I feel would have been around 500-1000 kills each. That's easily obtainable for anyone in the game over a 4 day time period. I have enjoyed the event so far and might even contribute another few thousand kills tomorrow... Just sad to see so many people complaining instead of working together.

Melsaur Mountains (Spider Cave)

There the creatures is respawning in one second, you killl and already respaw before you see to screen again... is scary, and everyone (almost) can go to this Map, and in Melsaur Mountains (North) have A LOT of Bulltoises...

Lets go to there Folks, gain at least 2 or 4 Chests to everyone LvlUp quickly ^^

I was wondering on the event world quests is there some information on where they are and how to do them? I think I have some part of a quest but no idea what to do exactly with an item. :?

all that does is prove your only willing to do what benefits YOU.


Checked the leader board for this event, sport? I like to think that I've done considerably more than the "bare minimum required." even if I HAVE chosen not to drain my stam completely.

The consequences of this "community event" are thoroughly individual in scope. You get x number of potions and y number of medals, and a week or two down the road, there will be NO lasting consequences for Joe Blow who didn't participate. Well, that means it's really not a "community event" at all, as fair as I'm concerned. For it to qualify for that label, there should be some sort of lasting consequence that affects THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY.

If you have access to all those FSP, and choose not to use them in pursuit of this goal, that is your right as well, and I don't criticize you for exercising it. I do, however, point out that then turning around and criticizing other people who have the ability to participate more and choose not to do so is nothing more than hypocrisy.

Finally, self-sacrifice and altruism is nice in theory, but in almost all instances of altruistic behavior if you look deep enough you find a kernel of self-interest, even if the potential gain is only "feeling good about oneself." So don't be so quick to censure self-interest. It's what makes the world go around.

Umm excuse me on this, but it lists there are quests not what to do with with the item or items of quest or where exactly you go with it to where? The home page says what is in the event, there is quests. Really need more information on the event quests please besides what is on the home page thanks. ^_^

There is no individual quest per say, it is a group effort ie. quest to eliminate at least 5 million of the invading soldiers.

The quest is kill 5 million and more footsoldiers (everyone together), if you have killed at least 250 and if we reach this goal we all get a reward. If we reach 10mil 2x reward, 15 mil 4x, 20 mil 6x, 25 mill 10x.

Also there are ledgendaries that drop recipes and resources. Together with the resources of this footsoldiers you can make items.

I thought there was got this odd rock trying to figure out what it goes too. Okay I am really confused on it thanks. I know there was the legends that drop resource items and recipes to make gear, I know there is soldiers you have to kill to help our community goal to get more chests and to qualify you need to kill 250 to qualify but more you kill the more it helps our cause. I found this crazy darn rock item no idea where it goes going to work on it later it seems a few others have this crazy rock and no idea what to do with it. Thank you Scrogger for some clarity just wanting to make sure I was not missing anything on the event. ^_^

koenvdv thank you for you input too. :oops:

I have a question, Say we did get the Ruby Tier and we got 10 Stash's. Since the stash's are bound you can't put them in the auction house and some people don't have 10 free spots. Are these stash's going to have an insanely high mail box time or what?
