Hints:

Nilbog the Tomb Raider has been looting corpses for awhile. I wonder if the spirits want to take revenge?

Great job with the event, staff. Being my first time in the Labyrinth I was naturally impressed, but I was also happy to see boss encounters that were doable with only 1 full group, and uthalis rewarded fairly generously. Only thing I'm sad about is that the map isn't available year-round :D

Oh and abydos your zombie/skeleton/ghoul puzzle was just the right amount of challenging. Only once in a while it was tough to tell when one character repeated twice in a row as the grow/shrink animation wouldn't show clearly, but once we figured out that it went 5-6-7-8-9 and that you have to wait a second or two between each click it was just a matter of paying attention.

What an amazing event! Thank you so much Uth staff!

Now that the event has been bug tested, do you anticipate re-opening the zone every so often? That was the most fun I've had rvring in years!

It would still be special if it was like, 24 hours every 3 months or something like that. Definitely not every day. Part of what made it so awesome was that we could only do it there for such a limited time.


Thanks so much for the hard work, that was amazing!!!

Did it have to end so soon? :D

~

Anyway now that it is over, perhaps we can share our findings?

I was only able to find the Zhulthruul, Riddles, and Void quests. . . There was also the encounter where you had to use the foul-smelling potion and click the mobs in order (Unsuccessful attempts).

Only found the mobs Ispen, Zhuthruul, and Muxog. Ispen took about 20-30min to kill (with tons of enemy adds) and only dropped a bag of coins.

Well the elite get richer and the poor look like all the rest..

Sorry the event could of been decent but what you said about small groups/solo was not true unless you were a stealther! This type of event is either gank groups (best of the best) or RR10 stealthers ganking anyone...

ALso the lowest thing i have ever seen in my life to go from 1-10 reward to 1-3 was the worst thing i have ever seen in a game. Last night in group 20 turned in and lots of 10...
Today- I turned in 6 and got 1 3 tirmes and 3 3times.. And noone got 10 in the last 3 hours that I know of...


Such hard and good work to hose it up like this..
Just my 2 cents

Again a RvR event...
Again an Event I don't like.

Not to devalue your work Aby, Zone was great (literaly :D) and Boss encounters were nice.

But so many fails too.
Too big zone for Quests which are 10000000 miles apart.
Usual elitegrps pwning everybody.
Reward for killing people (yaaay, nic elowbie grp will surely get some Uthalis!)
Agramon had no respawn ( -_-!!! )

Well, was nice to achieve at least some Uthalis and nice Remains + 18k RPs =)

Just waiting for a non RvR event since... Oh wait there wasn't any non RvR EVent for over 5 years now!

Great Event, Nice PvP fights and Quests. Thanks to all Staff members.
Please think about Uthalis dropping in Emain at a low perecentage to motivate players to participate in RVR or as reward for grp missions!

There were 16211 player kills (RVR or death by trap)!
The rolling boulder killed 320 people!
Lord Agramon killed 85, while is demon spawn killed 74.
Poor Cerberus only killed 8 people. Lord Agramon needs to find a better guard!

To be clear, scroll of reskin kills were invidiual, and not AOE...so all those people decided it might be a good idea to click it... :D

Somewhat more subversive was the trap labeled 'uthalis' that was stone-looking

In summary: If it was glowing and shiny on a pedastool in the middle of some room...probably not the best idea to grab it ;)

I thought it was the best event I had attended since i've been on this server. As far as whether or not solo's could do this event is concerned, well I would say you had more of chance on this event over any other event of going solo. If you had a stealther it was easy to solo, allthough the speed of going threw the labyrinth would have sucked. The Void quest had nobody you had to kill and was worth a good amount of uthalis and the riddle one was super easy to solo. If you were bored you could kill the mobs and have a pretty good chance at a fragment scroll.

At the beginning it was VERY RvR oriented as all 3 realms were in big # zergs running around the hub area and killing everything in sight. Once that settled down and people started trying to find the encounters it became a lil more fun for me. From 2 am till 6:30 am (Central standard time american) it was a blast. We were running w/ small man groups and even a trio for awhile and was able to move around just fine. Also, if you were smart and didnt have alot of #'s u would use the port system and hope you got a good port away from the zergs.

Overall I give this event a 10 out of 10. I thougth it was the most accessible for all player types, even though the people with better played groups/zergs had a distinct advantage. This will happen in any RvR type of event. I also thought it was the most accessible for all players with it being open for 24 hours. It allowed for people to learn the zone a lil bit and not feel rushed. Loved the event and hope you use it again!!
