PoeticPaladin's Guide to the Sea Witch Event

Discussion in 'Strategy' started by LoD-_PoeticPaladin_-LoD, Mar 5, 2015.

  1. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!

    [title2]Introduction[/title2]
    As I'm sure you've realized, a new PVE/PVP event has been launched by the Kingdoms at War development crew to celebrate promote the "newly discovered lands of the abyss". It's similar to the last event, except the same "tokens" are obtained by completing wars and completing epic battles. All reward tiers except for the very best one are reachable without competition between players, so I thought you folks might be interested in a little bit of collaboration. The purpose of this (very much WIP) guide is to collect and organize information that can help people reach their token collection goals for the event.

    [title2]Important Notes[/title2]
    - Item drops are based on activity during an epic battle. (Same for war? - Unconfirmed)
    - Aquarian Caches seem to drop 20~ jewels if that is the drop you receive on opening
    - Drop rates seem to have some consistency based on actions, but are also influenced by random factors
    - Smaller stat builds appear to get more drops for less actions?

    [title2]Drops per epic:[/title2]
    - HTE drops all items needed to make jewels every time - Roughly 1 completed jewel per 10-15 actions? (Needs confirming for consistency)
    - Reckoning - Drops common pearls. Current average seems to be ~2-4
    - TFO - 2-7 abyssal glyphs/eb
    - Smoke Signals - Drops Kraken Ink Vials. ~400 actions netted 30 vials.
    - Summoner - Drops Coral fragments (unknown amount)
    - Origins - Kraken Ink Oil - Roughly 1 per 7 actions
    - Warbeasts/Depraved - Common Pearls - 150 actions and less only got 1-22
    - Kingdom Assault - 1-10 coral fragments per 100 hits
    - A Familiar Foe - Glyphs - Roughly 1 per 10-15 actions
    - No Quarter - Squid Inks - Roughly 1 per 20 actions
    - Haunting - Common Pearls - 1-46 pearls depending on activity

    [title2]Top Priority Info to Confirm:[/title2]
    - Which epic battles drop which items?
    - Approximate rate of item drops per epic

  2. How is it not PVP? Items drop from wars, too.

     
  3. Wars might give 10 if that
     
  4. Most epics don't give many, either, to be fair.
     
  5. Tfo gives 2-7 abyssal glyphs per eb and it is somewhat random as the biggest contributor got 3 and oothers got 5-7 or 2.
     
  6. Got 12 from an hte
     
  7. My jewels dropped when I was 11.
     
  8. Ee wars are barely PvP
     
  9. Thanks for the contribution!

    Guide updated.
     
  10. Re: PoeticPaladin's Guide

    Smoke Signals drops Kraken Ink Vials. Roughly 400 actions netted 30 ink vials.
     
  11. PVP = Player v. Player.

    Estoc Edge wars qualify. :p
     
  12. Re: PoeticPaladin's Guide

    Thank you! Added.
     
  13. Yea but UR still a virgin
     
  14. Got 17 completed from an unload or two from an hte. Htes seem the way to go like most other events. Nothing new...
     
  15. Different Ebs drop different items, smoke signals drops only ink sacks, the summoner only drops coral stuff and HTe drops all I believe from my sightings
     
  16. Really? Most HTEs where I get 30-45 actions in I only get like 4.
     
  17. Thank you for this! Small update.
     
  18. PvP event? 
    How about the people in Osw? 
    Funny to see every lame promo comes with a bs story to rip your wallet. Tell me, why does HTE ALWAYS gotta be the best EB for an event? 

    If you think you've had it all and the event is done. They throw a 50% Hte promo. Thanks Devs, you make your old school players really enjoy the game this way. 

  19. The event is PVP-inclusive in that it is possible to obtain the "tokens" by warring in estocs. Therefore the event may be deemed PVP/PVE. As I'm sure you know, OSW is a war that takes place outside of the "war system" that the developers have in place. I'm not exactly a KaW veteran, but I haven't ever seen the developers specifically create an event that catered to OSWs. That aside, the event that literally just finished worked perfectly fine for people in OSW. What's your problem?

    All that aside, this is a thread I created as a guide for people who ARE interested in participating in this event. If you're not interested, why are you here?
