    Event is outdated and like ALL events since the last Drakanevent its buggy, boring, repetetive and the rewards are a joke!

    I know that BP dont listen to us (even though they keep claiming that they do), but once again Im compelled to make some obvious suggestions:
    *Make droprates better in events! -Events should be special, but when its better to farm the Qs its downright idiotic!
    *Make rewards better in events! -Events ATM keep devaluating!
    *Make drakens usefull! Let us buy something for drakens, that EVERY1 can use!!! Like ander or gems or meltingvalue!

    ty for the map... but i still need to find alot more axe's. the trolls should be able to carry at least 10x and the barrel's could hold 5x for sure.

    not sure how you relate that quest to the amphora.

    -----Merge-----

    any way i figure that i will finish the event before it ends so i will then do some axe farming then to save for the next time.

    -----Merge-----

    it would be nice to have a couple hundred axe's before it even starts

    I don't get what you mean. You turn in 30 picks and you get an amphora key in return. And when you have an over abundance of picks, this is the best way to get rid of them. You can save them for other events or you can use them in the mini event to help meet the short time window you have.

    That map is too much to remember for me, LOL. A Jullov every now & then is enough... but yeah, that means another luck factor added in... yay. In any case, I don't really mind the 50x Impure Viscanium from those mobs... usually, after one run, I have about 600 - 800, and can turn it into progress via Shady John (or into maps if needed).

    Orange_George, you cannot drop 30 min. Poison Immunity Potions. You can only buy those (they did give a bonuscode earlier, VISCANIUMMASTER, that contained one, plus some other event resources - if you haven't redeemed that one yet). What you can drop (though I see the drop-rate is low) are Small Poison Immunity Potions - but those only last 5 minutes each.

    What kind of math did you guys use when you made the huge progress bars and the challenges' tiny duration? Hikikomori math and BigPoint €€€€€ math?!
    Let's imagine that someone actually wants :rolleyes: your event's big "Brand new reward:", the supercalifragilisticexpialidocious lame gear wings... If they somehow o_O manage to miss getting any of the parts needed, they'll become scrap metal... unless they'll be able to combine just 2 of them and fly with just one wing... in circles.
    A sure reward like a useless monkey pet or a Gray horse would've been million times better than your "if you manage to get the parts must craft" wings.
    Cheers for another flop!

    Actually I've found that the axe drop is fairly decent and entering the map with none has yet to happen to me. Also friends have been sharing Jullov barrels when found which has been 4-6 times with just over 2k progress.

    It happened to me just know. Also the drops for the event and minimap are lousy. I finished the quest with the badges of honour and now thats all i get from map1. no pickaxes no viscaneoum, nothing...

    I was kicked back to city during mini event TWICE....IN A ROW.
    That scared the crap out of me, and i prayed everytime i enter maps that require entrance

    Same here ... I was kicked out few times . It is not a problem if it was my main character I have plenty of entrances ... but it was the case with one of my alt toons which I don't play too much and few entrances are really big issue for him.
    I don't think that progress bar is "huge". We have been playing this event for years ... but in the past the event mechanics were different and tougher ... the progress bar was always pretty much the same (+-1000) but now the event lasts for 10 days and back then we had only 4 days to complete the event (in harder way).
    You don't have to obtain all the parts for the wings if you don't want to ... it is just a useless mount that doesn't fit this game anyways. I will discard it as soon as I craft it.

    But yes ... in general I agree with all the players ... the event rewards are not worth the time spent on this event.

    i lost count howmany times i killed the boss3 on map 1. must be 40 or 50 by now. still i see just 1 potion against the poison how are we supposed to do the 2nd mini map without any?

    i hear we need to enter it 30x times to be able to finish. i cannot understand why the drop rate is .0000000000001

    maby if i let him kill me a few times i will see some...

    High base resistance and high block rate/strength should also work.

    got ok stats there 74% armor 77%block rate 61.5% block str but rather low res just 37% for poison, i guess i'll see how far i can get w-out potions

    The armor% won't help, but the block rate and strength should be good. If you have armor gems on your gear, consider removing them for resist gems.

    I have 49% and I handle just fine. I was also fine way back when I only had 40% resistance, but I'm a DK and can use MWS to keep my HP up too. The trick is killing stuff fast enough to keep getting HP spheres. You may need to run blues to keep the pace up.
