I made the Black Unicorn now require 250 candies instead of 1000 candies.

The Halloween T2 Bosses now have 1/4 chance instead of 1/10 chance.

I think T3-T5 are each 1/4 chance.

So a Stone Monster has a 1/4 chance to spawn off killing Cazic Thule. If you get it, consider yourself lucky to win the 1/4 chance, or unlucky if you miss looting Cazic Thule. Either way, there is chance for good and bad. Its Halloween Event. Even the Trick or Treat NPC can give you a trick once in a while, and they are in 2 different zones.

Hope the 2 updates help though.

Enjoy!

T1 = 1/75 Trash (1 in 75 chance)
T2 = 1/300 Trash (75 x 4)
T3 = 1/1200 Trash (300 x 4)
T4 = 1/4800 Trash (1200 x 4)
T5 = 1/19200 Trash (4800 x4)

Hope makes sense.

Better bosses with better loot are suppose to be more rare and harder to get.

If I understand correctly this change more than doubles SM/Goblin spawn rate.  Cheesy

Thanks Hunter! Smiley

Yes, you'll get an Insane Goblin 2.5x faster now. Hope makes sense, when changed 1/10 chance into a 1/4 chance, and then rest of the chain is the same.

Also, I just changed the Black Unicorn Reward NPC to depop after 15 minutes. However, when you get your reward token from the Black Unicorn Reward NPC you'll be 'flagged' to not allow any more rewards for 20 minutes from that NPC. Should the times should work out ok, and give more time for people to log in and hail the NPC.

The rewards from the Black Unicorn are worth getting, and may even be over powered. Of course you might get 'tricked' and get some loot that you rather not have like bags of plat or other food/candies. So its a chance to get good or not so good items, although most of the time should get something really good.

In addition to the npc you hail for reward token, the Task Quest is still in effect, so the group or raid doing most damage automatically get a reward token. They can turn that in, then go hail the NPC for another token to turn in again for 2 rewards to the group that does the most damage!

Again, might allow instances Monday-Wednesday but I need to edit the candy count code first to count for instance so public and instances don't steal each others candy count to spawn the Unicorn.

Made the Halloween Event a bit easier.

Only 150 candies required to turn in for boss. If zone crashes or server reboots, it goes back to zero. The count should work for each individual instance.

Instances will be now available in poeartha for guilds that want to try the boss with fewer people.

Goblin and Horse had their HP, Regen, and Damage all reduce. Should be a LOT easier now.

Stone Monster and Cazic Thule should be a little easier now too.

Hopefully this makes things easier.

If your still getting lag when 450+ people are online, then there is not much we can do about that until we get more bandwidth. Under that number we seem to do fine.

Enjoy!

Thanks Hunter!

I'm still only in T4, so CT still poses some issues for me.  Made me lose multiple corpses and even after getting CT down i've been unlucky/lucky enough to get SM to spawn to wipe me. 

Had CT down to 15% when the server just rebooted too.  Luck of the draw i guess Smiley

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this board is now dumber for having read it. May God have mercy on your soul.

Wonder how much limiting ip's to 12 would help. I think he has Fios right now, not sure if it is possible to get my than that added where the server is hosted at.

Hey all, I gathered enough footage to make a quick promo video for the event.  I'm posting now because I'm not sure if I'll be in a place with reliable internet this week.
