Event Details
- Runs until 12:00PM PDT on August 15th, 2014
- Complete Epic Battles and collect Emerald Hornets
- Winning a Round or Individual War and earn 100 Emerald Hornets
- When you collect 1000 Emerald Hornets they will automatically combine into a Hornet Swarm
- You can only have a maximum of 1 Hornet Swarm at a time. Emerald Hornets will not automatically combine if you already have a Hornet Swarm in your inventory, but will instead combine the next time you earn Emerald Hornets as long as you have no Hornet Swarms in your inventory at that time
- Hornet Swarms can be used in the Lure of the Hive event epic battle
- Both Emerald Hornets and Hornet Swarms are Attack Items. If you use these items during wars or epic battles beyond their intended use they will automatically be returned to you the next time you relaunch the app.
- The Lure of the Hive consists of two phases
- Item Phase - As a clan, use a total of 20 Hornet Swarms to complete this phase
- Attack Phase - Use regular attacks to complete this phase
- Using a Hornet Swarm during this Epic Battle will significantly increase your chances of receiving rewards
- Rewards are obtained as drops from the Epic Battle, instead of at the end of the event
- Rewards drop based upon random chance, and so you may not receive a reward every time

Updated
Quick update everyone. While Emerald Hornets will stop dropping as of 12PM PDT today, you'll continue to be able to use any Hornet Swarms you have in the Lure of the Hive EB until Monday at noon PDT.
Additionally, if you have uncombined Emerald Hornets, you'll be able to combine them by completing the Lure of the Hive event with others. (This EB will now reward you with 1 Emerald Hornet to make your hornets swarm)
Any unused Emerald Hornets or Hornet Swarms will be removed on Monday after the event ends.
