    This event is so much confusing to me, so much grind, I hate it! Please don't make any more events like this one.

    That MUST be a bug.... If I were to pick all of those costumes, by the end of the event I would have thousands of them. Is there an idea behind this? Might as well make them an event currency or something. Or new feature to wear gazillion of costumes simultaniously? Would be interesting.

    convert them into bone coins and we can buy lotsa keys for lotsa extra maps for never ending quests and this and that
    and would be even able to save up 40K :D

    What's more, the NPC is in the first map, but you have to repair in the second, so buying the scrolls with Bone Coins might be tricky. So what would be a way to ensure you don't buy too many? Well... go inside the second map and buy with Ander, one by one until you get it... such a shameless hidden attempt at making people buy with Andermant... unless you wanna take the gamble with the Bone Coins.
    My guild master completed a daily yesterday just to see if it was worth it and to share the info about it... he got 3 Finest Earth... all that effort and coins toward a reward that is technically worth 600 Bone Coins... but OFC you spend way more for the map entrances while doing it... so as Pilatrosh's quests, they seem to like giving us stuff to do, only to realize that we're actually gonna end up having less currencies...
    Not quite. This goes way back to when these were implemented (ages) after a costume-designing contest, as most know... the idea behind it was to make them drop from Lor'Tac Protectors/Guardians... but someone up there was so skilled that instead, the costumes were made to drop from any guardian-rank mini-boss, thus resulting in a flood of these, and making them Lor'Tac exclusives no more. They said they corrected it a bit and reduced the rate, but as it shows now, they still drop too often. Going back to square one in terms of drop-sources for these would be good...

    Ok, I'm done too with this event. And I'm this close to walking away from DSO altogether, after being back for 1-2 weeks. This time I won't leave any chance of coming back. Gonna scrap every item I got to make sure of that.

    Just a feedback update on this crap event. The mini-event with the sandstorm, while it's a nice touch the execution is insulting. If you had to grind and farm and grind again just to get bones to get to the other maps to grind again.. now guess what? You need to grind and grind again. 1000 specific mobs on 1 map which you can enter only after farming another map? Are you friggin' insane? And don't tell me you only have a few hours to do this.

    I relish in what I heard about BP being on the edge as of 2016 (reliable inside info). I'm not that bad of a guy, but really, you deserve it.

    You can read in the description http://drakensangonline.wikia.com/wiki/Ancient_Mystical_Box
    Any item from PW or any event.
    At TS I have got Sargon's Wand and T1 Full Moon Item. :D :D
    If i want any of those ... I can get them in faster and less costly/painful way ... that is why I am not playing this event in first place.

    Laaag esp. in groups. Tegan server. spoils the game flow. blue spot misses and group members getting invisible from maps and appear after certain time and hp reduced being hit by mobs. but not real time ....while broadband speed is ok and even video streaming without a lag. absurd

    Is it just me or is the "normal" maps even more difficult than other "normal" maps (e.g. on Varholm)? Find it a bit difficult to farm stuff.

    Dunes of Dookie:

    I thought I had the motivational fortitude to farm 100k Bone Coins from this event. I finished the initial 8 quest line and ended up with about 3k coins. Between the bosses having complete immunity and more HP than Fatal enemies in the supposed "Excruciating" difficulty, I saved myself the frustration and quit after the first day of this thing.

    Well i agree with 99% of what's been posted here.
    What's worse is the older this game gets ,the more the event's and the game in general seems to to be designed for the serious investors.
    Just think how easy this would all be if we had maxed out gems and nothing but red essence to use.
    Come on guys we all cannot afford to spend many tens of thousands of dollars just to play a game...
    For me the cost of 1 maxed out gem is just too much, and i need 70 of these...really REALLY

    - Did the quests til 7/8
    - killed boss twice; first kill = an amulet (melted it)
    - bought 3x(50+25) drakens
    - also bought 2x15% damage grapes
    - sold everything else from the event
    - Done... back to normal play.
    This is your worst event... so far.
    When I saw someone with a rug, I was like "bot".
    I'm also thinking that they're milking a dying cow... Greg leaving was a sign. He knew what was going to come and didn't wanted to deal with the effects. Smart move.

    Absolutely the worst event I had the opportunity to play. Idiotic amount of grind for nothing worthwile. The best thing I got from it were 3 legendary items dropped from the boss. Farming for hours every day for an epic mount? No tnx, my gray horse does the job fine. Freaking 100k for a jewel of enhancement (sp?)? I'll get a high lvl gem faster by random farming. Uniques with super duper effects? No tnx, the stats suck, the ww damage isn't that much especially considering I'm a SW which means if I get into melee I'm doing something wrong. Horrible quest description, stupid idea of coin-bought keys to enter maps, impossible amounts of grinding required to get anything IF there is anything you need from it (I'd rather try it with crafting legendaries than torturing myself for these uniques).

    A rock bottom tier event. *facepalm*

    i was doing the mini event did the first bits of it got the enchanted sandglass. then i needed to farm 200 of this and 200 of another thing. well the first run i got 10/200 and 6/200 of the other thing. But to go into those maps you need 300 bone coins per map So you might have to do this map 30 times to get 200/200. 30 times 300 bone coins = 9000 bone coins so i gave up on the mini event also did all my fellow guild members.

    are the devs lacking fantasy that this is what they come up with an endless grind event

    you need the enchanted sandglass vial mostly you get the common sandglass vial . the enchanted sandglass there is only 1 per map. once you get the enchanted sandglass to soraya the mini event continues see above post

    I'm just going to repeat what I said for the 5th anniversary event: DSO events are in dire need or redesigning. ASAP.

    P.S. Are bone coins the only way to get keys?
