Any chance we could have this invasion only last one real world week, then return Trammel to normal???

An SoS
No.

Use a different pet.


There's more drama going on than in a whole week full of non stop showings of Titanic....

Was just going to post about this. I was hoping they would add them again and maybe change the color. Give us red and black this time or white/cream pumpkins. I've also only gotten three types of "candy" for Trick or Treat. I don't really see how bread, cheese and bacon = candy. :lol:

*still hoping for pumpkins*

I'm surprised no one even mentioned this, or even thought to ask WHAT exactly this will be:

"Army members drop special weapons and spellbooks with properties based on their rank"

I wondered where those Cypress trees were coming from I was seeing at Luna bank. That wasn't even rubble before. Thought maybe they had put a plant growth expediter on TC somewhere/how. On the plus side, GM Beggar FTW. Not saying anything else cause I don't want to spoil it :)
Oh please please please spoil it. I played for a while last night and didn't notice anything special for my GM Beggar. Do I need to do/go somewhere special??

The thing for GM Beggars is purple bacon????

Something I noticed in the fix list:
*A tamed cow can only be milked by the owner*

No no Aboo, it is way better than purple fuzzed up bacon! Keep trying on test, it will come to you.

Aboo,

Beggars forum will give you an answer or you can PM me. I don't know if there is more than one reward or one reward with different sizes, shapes. I've only gotten one so far. My real beggar is low and it's my own fault for being too lazy to work her over the past year. I'm sure the item(s) will be up for a fortune on vendors though. Heh. :) I am going to work her some shortly during lunch. Are there begging alacrity scrolls?

Thanks for the reply. I am not sure about the alacrity scrolls for begging, I finally about 2 months ago got my beggar to GM on LS. Good luck on yours!

Yes, but since when could cows be milked? What publish? I remember they could be tipped...
You sound like me a few weeks back asking my sister that same question! I, too, didn't know they could be milked until someone talked about milking them!

Cyrah,

Maybe they are fuzzy bones. lol The cheese wedge could be a candy corn I guess. Who knows. The bread I cannot figure out. :)

Nestorius,

I *think* the cows began producing milk in late spring.

Thanks for the scroll info, Devil Woman.

And Killer jack-o-lanterns ftw!:thumbup1:

Impressive work by the dev folks. What we see them do of late has been extremely well done. As for how well it "plays," we'll see, but in terms of cudos for scope, design and content, again well done. Now if they can just get a final/ firm handle on duping! They did however stick one to us, burried deep among all the eaches. The durability nerf for DC weapons actually will matter to our warriors over time, shame on them for this one.

I've also only gotten three types of "candy" for Trick or Treat. I don't really see how bread, cheese and bacon = candy. :lol:
giant pumpkin muffin, candy corn (you guessed that one right!), pixie sticks

I blame the Clilocs!

But no pumpkin hunting. Sorry :sad4:

To Regine,


Thank for info on NO pumpkin hunting. Why not? What is the reason please?

It is hard to code? Gosh, why?? Who said so? Can we change this if many want it? Please?

Probably more useless items, like 20% hit magic arrow from the highest ranked guy. :/

Unless it is on a spellbook... lol that would be sick :O
Because everyone would drop a Scrapper's Compendium, even just a regular one, or a Clainin's for a spellbook with a weak hit effect property. Don't know about you, but my mage doesn't have HCI, so I NEVER hit anyone.

ok I tested 50 begging skill for a few hours.


All I got was blaze bread, fuzzy purple bacon and orange cheese. No last year special items, no new special item.

So, 50 maybe begging skill is considered useless by this team. O 'well, :) and no pumpkins to find either.

From asking npc's I got a small spider web and a creepy cake from last year.

Ah hah! I knew it had to be candy corn. Too bad on the pumpkins, maybe next year we can have them again? I suggested red, but that's just from a deco theme standpoint. However, they do come in cream and green IRL so how about that option? I guess striped might be pushing it. :)

I can't help it. I'm a designer IRL and then holidays are a big thing for me, so I tend to be a bit creative in game as well. :)

I have a few questions about the publish. How long will the event, Halloween activities and the Magencia quests will be available? Will the invasion be available on small shards that may not have much faction activity? Also, does each shard need to complete a certain number of Magencia quests in order to fully restore the city? Thanks in advance

looking at the options in this publish, I feel like a cat with a mouse pinned under each paw and another mouse running past my nose.
