The Riddle of Drakkend Mountain

Discussion in 'Past Events' started by [ATA]Grant, Nov 25, 2016.

  1. Mt. Drakkend is home to the Grimgard, a clan of dwarves known far and wide for their skill in the forge and their prowess on the battlefield.

    Traffic moved briskly to and from the mountain, for the quality of the weapons forged by the Grimgard dwarves was without parallel.

    Then one day, without warning to the outside world, the dwarves of Mt. Drakkend vanished…



    Seven days ago, the great gates leading to the huge, labyrinthine colony inside Mt. Drakkend were sealed off from the inside. Since then, there has been no word from the Grimgard dwarves.

    Fearing some sort of calamity, you muster your armies and march to Drakkend Gate…




    Drakkend Opal

    Weekend PvP Blitz



    During the weekend we'll be hosting PvP Blitz events in addition to the main event. During these Blitz events you'll collect and steal Enigmatic Ichor from players in order to earn Argentic Scale to help you with your progress in the main event. Every time you collect 500 Enigmatic Ichor they'll be converted into a Argentic Scale which cannot be stolen.

    Rewards for these PvP Blitz Weekend events are based on the number of Argentic Scale you own.

    PvP Blitz Opt-In



    To Opt-In to the event, players will need to cast the Opal of Ingress spell at the Alchemist. NOTE: Spell will only be available to cast once the weekend event has started.

    Warning: Opting-in lasts for the ENTIRE DURATION of that specific BLITZ EVENT and there will be no way to opt-out after doing so.

    Opted in players will:
    • Have their name colored orange to indicate their participation
    • Have a spell indicating their participation on their profile
    • Have their Battle List updated to show only players who have opted-in

    Skalgar's Shadowaxe



    When you hit another opted-in player there's a chance that the Skalgar's Shadowaxe spell is activated. This spell lasts for 24 hours, and has the following properties:
    • Provides you with more plunder when attacking or stealing from opted-in players
    • Allows you to obtain more PVP Collection items when attacking or stealing from opted-in players
    • Provides you with a chance of creating Mithril out of thin air when attacking or stealing from opted-in players
    • Will be visible on your profile as an active spell
    • CAN BE STOLEN when you are attacked or stolen from by opted-in players. If stolen you will lose the spell, and the attacking player will receive it. Duration is not reset when stolen but continues to count down from where it was for the previous owner.

    Note: You cannot steal another player's spell when you have an active spell yourself.

    Skalgar's Shield



    Dwarven Warbell may be purchased in the Marketplace for 59 Nobility Points and casts this spell on ALL of your current clan members. If you already have the spell active you will not be able to purchase it until the current spell expires.

    This spell lasts for 1 hour and has the following properties:
    • Provides you with more plunder when attacking or stealing from opted-in players
      (This is able to stack with the Skalgar's Shadowaxe spell)
    • Allows you to earn more PVP Collection Items when attacking or stealing from opted-in players
      (This is able to stack with the Skalgar's Shadowaxe spell)
    • Prevents other players from being able to steal your Skalgar's Shadowaxe spell while active
    • Will be visible on your profile as an active spell

    Skalgar's Box



    As you complete Epic Battles you'll occasionally find Skalgar's Boxes. These rare chests can contain a number of goods including Health Crystals, Event Items, Seals of the Damned, and more!

    You can open these chests in one of two ways.

    1) Purchasing a Skalgar's Key from the Marketplace using Gold. You can purchase ONE of these per day.
    2) Purchasing a Gold Skalgar's Key (HALF OFF) from the Marketplace using Nobility. There is no limit on the number you may purchase.

    Grimgard's Boxes


    Grimgard's Boxes are rewarded from event participation in various reward tiers. There are three types, Bronze, Silver, and Cobalt which can contain either Crux Chests, or Silver Bars. Silver Bars depend on the type of Box, with Bronze containing between 5-25, Silver containing between 30-50, and Cobalt containing 60-100 Silver Bars.

    Community Reward Goals


    For this special event, Global Community Goals return, though in a slightly different format.

    Each time the community reaches a Community Reward Goal, all players will receive rewards based on the number of Drakkend Opal they have AT THAT TIME.

    See the Community Rewards Post for details.


    Individual Rewards + Leaderboards


    Please see the event page in-game to view event rewards and leaderboards.

    Rewards will be made available for you to collect through the events page shortly after the event ends.
     
  2. Community rewards always a good thing to see :)
     
  3. 54hrs of war event
     
  4. Is this related to "Orisons Of Glory"/"Potion Of Az" event? Is it the part of that series or no? Thanks :)
     
  5. Looks like another rip off tbh i bet the cobalt boxes are only obtained through zta/hte
     
  6. Please remove the previous event from event page.. Makes it kinda annoying having 6 tiny bars there
     
  7. Support, actually mentioned same issue in my thread
     
  8. bluh blah blehhh
     
  9. Don't care it's he same event we all know ...
     
  10. Idk if anyone else is having this issue but my event icon is blending and not showing event items
     
  11. @ata grant, the increases in the PvP rewards are nice, however they do not reflect the difficulty / time involved in reaching 50 items and above.

    As a base...

    50 items in both PvP (together) should get you the second highest tier.

    Top 100 each half way to last set tier

    Top 50 each reach the last set tier

    Top 10 should give Top tier in EACH blitz (40k event items)

    This will hugely increase participation and the variation in play styles.
     
  12. Apologies grant, I see you removed the 25k and 40k tiers.

    That changes things, I hope if / when they return you look at the PvP rewards again :)
     
  13. The weapon awarded from this event, is it off hand or not ? I can't seem to find it posted anywhere.
     
  14. Is this considered part 2 for the last event or no?
     
  15. This
     
  16. Need new sport car devs , more money , this game all about money now days ,
     
  17. Support on collecting a single event item instead of combining two halves.
    I like mini events 
     

  18. Want to know this too
     
  19. SO with the new event in place something dumb happens as always right. yeah it did. i went to open a crux chest and go about my day. come to find out it didn't open. well we all know how kaw glitches. so i open another. few min later no plunder bonus. COME TO FIND OUT the devs put buying a crux chest above opening them with a key for nobs. NICE ONE. now i would like my 78 nob point refund plz bc i want to buy a seal. not too much to ask for. next time how bout putting them below and NOT changing the layout of menus. :x would appreciate it
     
  20. Support i really love this idea as well devs should implement it more in future events, as I'm sure most would agree 
