Questions about the slime event [SPOILER]

I heard different things about these slimes one thing i heard is that you can dye artifacts directly off a slime the other thing i heard is the slimes give you a Tokuna dye that comes in 35 different colors 5 being new and special colors if i remember right. this confuses me do we get a dye that we can bring home and use any time and anywhere we want and use on artifacts or do we have to dye an item right off of a live or a dead slime? any info would be much appreciated thanks.

If I ever find a slime, I'll let you know :)
ok thanks i hope its a dye we can take home should be stackable too because many of those tokuna dyes had slightly different hues but you couldn't tell many of them apart which was a bummer.

In the similar event on the Japanese shards you double clicked the slime like it was a dye tub, then clicked on the item you wanted to dye. It didn't distribute dyes...

There are no slimes, it was just a way to frustrate players who got too happy over some cool Christmas gifts is all.

My wild guess is that the special variety of slime will work like the ones in the Asian event, i.e., they will function as dye tubs. However, I suspect they'll just offer the 30 minor tokuno dye colors mentioned in the publish notes. I suspect you'll have to do the quest you get from Lyla in order to get one of the five new hues as a quest reward.

I could easily be wrong, though, because if it works that way, the slime would be around for 60 days (two days per color), which is a lot longer than the timeframe of the "next few weeks" after the publish that's mentioned in the Publish 57 notes.

I've been wandering Baja and no slimes are to be found here either. Have there been any posts on whether this was turned on? Do the slimes have a yellow name like the NPC's? It's a little hard to search when I'm not sure what I'm looking for but I'm not giving up.

Someone obviously found a slime thats why DEV had to take down the servers and reset the slimes so it spawns in the middle of the ocean under the ocean tile and is inaccessible by players.

They could have at least gave us a heads up so we didn't waste time running around looking for something that isn't there.

It's sad we have to go to the japanese website to find out what's going on. :sad4:

I take this to mean the slime event doesnt actually start till around Christmas morning, and will last 3 weeks?

Well, there is a Lyla in Eastern Jhelom, as mentioned in the Japanese site noted above. Here is the text of that quest:

Quest Offer: Pursuit

Description:
Oh, I beg your pardon! I am Lyla, assistant to the Zoologist Iakas. I'm searching for samples from the gelatinous family of slimes— such an amazing species!— for him. They have some monetary value as well, as they excrete a pigment that can be used as a dye. Yet I can't even seem to catch one! They're moving so...well, I've never seen anything like it. If you think you can do better, would you collect three samples and deliver them to Iakas as [sic] the Royal Britannian Zoo? Use these basins - they can hold the slime safely.

Objective:
All of the following
Use the slimes to dye three specimen basins

Reward:
A Token of the Zoologists' Gratitude
Upon accepting the quest you receive three Specimen Basins, each weighing 2 stone and are Blessed.

So presumably, it is live. So search in all of the places mentioned in the Japanese site. The spawns last for 2 days at one of the locations before moving to another, if I understand correctly.

Ok, some spoiler notes:

-They periodically change colors (not sure what determines when).
-They will dismount you.
-They poison.
-They are FAST and teleport away sometimes.
-Doubleclick them and target non-equipped arties to dye. You have to be near them to dye something.
-Finishing the quest gives you a deed for a Slime Hunter title.
-You can do the quest only once per character but can continue dying things after completing the quest.

Found them on GL in the farm fields. Only saw two or three, but there may have been more. They do seem to change colors and the slime name includes what color it is at that moment. They are aggressive and will poison you. The poisoning didn't seem to be quickly fatal, but had a bit of trouble curing it even with arch cure.

Once I told my pet to guard me, the slime stopped targeting my tamer and went after the pet. All I had to do then was run around after the two of them and keep double clicking on the slime. You have to get pretty close to the slime in order to get a targeting cursor up to dye something or fill one of the quest basins.

If you are doing the quest, the reward is a deed that says, "A Certificate of Capture / Blessed / Use This to Redeem the Reward Title: "Slime Hunter."

I didn't redeem mine so I'm not sure how the reward title shows up or if you get anything else with it. Also, Lyla will only give the quest to a character once.

When you double click the deed there is a confirmation gump. All you get is the title Slime Hunter - it shows up in white lettering under my name on my character.

You could sell the deed on a vendor I suppose.

I am not doing any artifact dying but it was fun to chase the slimes for a while.

Safe journeys!

All around, it's a lot of fun. I just wish I had more stuff to dye. ;)

I dyed Royal Leggings, 3x Heart of the Lion, 2x Aegis of Grace, 3x Righteous Anger, and 2x Quiver of Rage. And that about sums up all of my artifacts.. haha.

I did..dyed my tamer's boomstick a lovely shade of olive green when I went back after completing the quest. Also noticed that my nightmare got some nice magery gains chasing after slimes, probably from casting Archcure spell so much.

Not sure how many things I'll bother dying. Gotta think about it. The Brit farm field location is a nice easy spot for doing this. If the list from the Japanese site is accurate, it sounds like some of the other spots will not be much fun, so maybe take advantage of this nice "teaser" location while it's good.

I was able to dye after completing the quest as well.

Also, I could be wrong but it seems like if the slime doesn't have a color tag in it's name, it will dye a dark gray (like a default color). I dyed most of my stuff a dark gray (I liked the color), but got a couple shadow and dark blue as well.

Now I need to coerce someone to dye my leather armor pieces a matching color. I'm getting tired of green armor, and my account is too young to use leather dye tubs. ;)

You can dye artifacts AND enhanced items. I dyed a verite runic shield for instance. I could not dye a magic pickaxe though. Guess it's not enhanced.

They will knock you off your mount and poison you. You won't take any damage though. As long as you stay in the area. As soon as I walked through a moongate I started taking damage from the poison.
