Exactly, I people just make assumptions that they will not be able to participate. Chill out and let us see what happens, should be a bit of fun.



Hopefully, when the new publish comes in, I hope we don't get more cursed artifacts for the ophid rations and snakes skins! That would be a let down. Hopefully some new cool stuff like maybe snake skin boots?

Well I look very silly attempting to tele into it. I can get up on the corners but not into any hole
I have tried the top,the bottom, the vortex cube. I can play in the water though


Edit: Got it

The stuff I saw was the same as a couple of days ago, which seems to relate specifically to the current event.

Would be fun if we could only trade in one black rock, one ration, one set of orders per character... no?

Melina, if you have a GM Miner you can still go mine up some small blackrock pieces.

Guess so. What I'm wondering is can one be 95 with +5 gloves and be able to mine blackrock or do we actually have to have 100?

[/ QUOTE ]

Yes you can mine it up at 95 with the gloves.

hummm...maybe i miss it, but
where did they say that we can turn in blackrocks?

i see only this:

Collectable items that “seem” to have only decorative purpose will have a turn-in, along with the Ophidian items, in Publish 52.

I thought mineable Black Rock was turned off just before Valentines and don't recall it being turned back on?

On Europa, the Moonglow Beergarden created by ex-IGM Talos was wiped out when the blackrock detector was completed


I hope that Draconi and Adida can restore it after the event is over!

Yes, a beer garden at the bottom of a crater would be cool.

Maybe in the hole you can but it's not turned off in the city... still says you can not cast that spell in town.

That's correct.
Might get more things during this time to turn in then but either way the turn ins are not until pub 52.

When the detector was originally created, it was stated that displaced shard-specific displays would return when all was said and done. But a lot has happened since then so I don't know if the assurance still stands.

Well I've had months to try and mine some, but I'm VERY lazy about resource gathering. And I refuse to pay outrageous prices for a small piece of it.

I'll admit the posting of the schedule and lack of noting the event on the login screen is bad, but it's my own fault I am without blackrock. I didn't even make it to Moonglow last night and I play shards on both coasts.
