One thing I didn't mention in my synopsis above, CT would also drop a complete epic book.  I want to say it was the 3.0 book, but I'm not 100% sure of that.

Hunter, if you do increase the difficulty of CT, would you consider upgrading the book one level as a Risk/Reward balance.

CT would have to be really damn hard for it to be worth him dropping a 3.5.

Last year's event was 2-3 days long, but if it's only a single day this year, I'll still be grateful for the fun!

In response to Demin's comment regarding CT dropping a 3.5 book, I understand where you're coming from.  Farming pages and then killing Shadow is a helluva grind!  I'm also not 100% sure it was the 3.0 book CT dropped.  If it was, however, this is a short term Event with some cool/fun rewards.  It doesn't necessarily need to be in that line of difficutly (if that was what you were thinking).  Last year, when Epic 3.0 and T2 armor were the best in the game and not many had that, CT was only killable by those who had already reached that point in the game.  If you were still farming Qvic, or Tacvi, CT was just too tough at least without a bunch of friends.  I would suggest that if CT's going to drop a 3.5 book, it should be with the same thing in mind.  If you can't farm HoH, and kill Shadow, CT should be too tough for you.

Interestingly enough, for the folks able to kill Cazic, the reward of the book was secondary.  It was the 10k familiar that they really wanted.  So high end guilds were calling out that if you managed to spawn CT, they would come kill it for you if they got the familiar and you got the book.  A bunch of people took them up on that offer.

Haha the event started on a friday where CT was broken and only had alot of HP. Saturday hunter came on and saw that this was the case and made cazic thule death touch every so often and aoe knock back. I think the event lasted till monday morning when the reboot hit.

I think there were only like 60-70 cazic thule pets.

What happened for the event though was the guild i was in would ooc that if someone popped CT(unless they knew it was coming they would die instantly.) and they sent one of us a tell we would kill it for them. We would take the CT pet and give them the 3.0 book for spotting it or telling us. So even if the 3.5 is tough if 4.0s are slaughtering it the books will eventually rot.

I think there were only 3 guilds that were killing it.

I would guess no on double loot weekend unless it was easy to exempt the pet dropping mobs from dropping double loot too.

*shrug*  It seems to me like the pets are meant to be a little bit rare.  Double pet loot makes that less so.  Just my opinion.

Yeah even if it was just a double loot day on Sunday, just 24 hours from reboot to reboot.  I think I'd pee my pants cause that would be some fun mixed in with one of my favorite holidays of all time.  It would be nice if Hunter started the scripts tonight before he went to work, hint hint, please.  Wink  One day of craziness on Sunday is gonna be so much fun.  It'd be nicer to get two days crack at getting the cazic pets but if not Sunday will have to do, I'll just give my wife and kids some money and point them to the mall.  Yes I am gay for Halloween and Hunter.  Shocked
