R163 Preview

April Fools came a bit early huh

 

As it may not be so easy to spot and memorize all trees and fieldstones in the Swaywood Dale (Event Attack on Resistance Command Center) during your first visits, I created a map...
Voilà:

Official Guide:

 

Yes they Nerfed it down

That is why I put the wiki event guide on hold ... so I can see all the changes first XD

 

@Testador and @trakilaki I have got confirmation and changed the Official Event Guide.

Cheers.

 

What a shame. It is still good for a SM, but I'd never use it over a pure crit decoration for a SW, RA, or DK. I'll try to get it on my DK with speed runs (for completion's sake) and then work on my SM for the rest of the event.

 

Could someone be kind and post Khalys set (if there is one now) and how much event progress per entry on main event map?

 

So far there are no new items there

 

Thank you, @trakilaki

Ok, so I found out how much event progress there is on event maps.

For map1 and farming the entrance to then main map2, require 5 realm fragments per entry and gives around 10 progress, +25 for finishing the quest in 6 runs (30 realms total) and map2 gives anywhere from 60-90 so the minimum should be around 95-105 and max about 135 or so. To finish event we need 3600 progress meaning 32-38 runs, meaning 960-1140 realm fragment. So .. yeah, that a lot!

 

Except that there are repeatable quests in the event that reward you with realm frags which offsets the amount spent on entrance fees. Also, you get some entrances to the defend map from the progress, and random fluctuations mean that it will likely take a lot less than that.

 

Hey there,
Why isnt anyone talking about Drake's quest.
And does it grant you an achieve
?
Thanks

 

No, no achievement.
It has 2 parts: first, you have to collect four leaves for crafting the cloverleaf amulet, from 4 different boss monsters randomly present in the RCC under siege. This first parts gives a legendary weapon as quest reward.
With the crafted amulet, you can open Raydyn's sarcophagus in Swaywood Dales and fight her. She's a fire mage who deals quite some damage, but doesn't call any companions. For defeating her and bringing her staff to Drake (quest 2/2), the reward is a polished gem bag, i.e. one guaranteed polished gem.
Also see this wikia quest page.

 

That only 5 realms fragments and 1 time only. This is looking like a really good event planed bad. The old way of playing this event was way better and more fun.

 

Could you please elabrote you calculation as,
You said 10 for every run on map 1 and 25 for finishing quest in 6 runs i.e.85 progres+ mp2 entry = 30 frags
map 2 gives somewhere around 60- 90 i.e. 30 frags = 145 -175 progress , considering the minimum value it would take 25 runs i.e. 750 frags

 

You're telling me... I have 999 battle tokens from the last time they did a defend event over a year and a half ago.

 

I need to recalculate it, different progress but it's gonna be a lot in the end am sure of it.

No, dude. I was just thinking out-loud/note to game designers.

 

Sad that I'll have to forgo another event because of these Realm Frag shortages. Maybe if I skip enough events in the next six months I can start up again. Not a big deal, I have enough Draken for the last Dragonache piece (if it ever shows up again ).

The last defend event was pretty fun, maybe I'll try out a few runs.

 

Maybe not.
I have around 270 relms now on my SW, I'll just keep farming more. You should do the same.

Event:
Map1 - 20 progress per entry, 6-7 entry to finish it = 120 to 140 progress / 30 to 35 realms
Map2 - 65 progress from map on average + 100 from quests = 165 progress
Total = 285 to 305 for 30 to 35 realms / 13 runs on main map2 = 350 to 390 realms to finish it.

 

hi i heard a rumor that it will use up 1000 realm fragments to complete this event as i have 800 is it worth me wasting all of them or waiting until next time this event comes around

 

On the first map you should have a max of 6 runs there are 5 free wood and you need 30. I took me 4 runs to aquire 30 wood and others got maps as drops.

My suggestion is to figure 5 farming maps.
You start with 25 free event progress.

We will take the 165 that is what I saw also.

You will need to do the farming map 70 times and use up 350 realm frags.

I know you said 350 to 390 but I I think people will far less say 250 to 350
