Feedback That Time I Became A Turtle

I did read the whole thing and other than both being in Phase 2 (in very different parts of the FAQ) there is no connection made in the FAQ.

Your answer to the original question in post 33 ( #33) above is what told me what the connection was, not the FAQ.

My point here is that if the connection was clear in the FAQ, then we wouldn't need to ask about it here. And referring the second person who asked to the FAQ vs your real answer in post 33, wasn't going to help him that much.

 

Ahoy!

Thank you for your feedback pirate!

The "Turtle Terror" map was charging only one ancient emblem every visit (which seemed wrong). I just went into it today, and suddenly, it is charging me 6 ancient emblems to start. What gives?

 

Ahoy Dream~Crusher!

The price is constantly growing for that map - if you do not select the Turtle Terror specifically by clicking on it the entry cost that display won't be updated.

What is the best way to get Event points? 1.5 mills is soo muchhh

 

Devourer gives 5k no matter how much damage you do. The Turtle Terror takes 2-3 min and give 2k.

 

Thanks!

 

Ahoy Wolfi3!

Your fellow pirate is correct! The best way to obtain quick event points:

- The event quests
- Few hits into Devourer (surface) and Arronax (atlantis)
- Turtle Terror map (solo)

Happy Sailing!

I've been in the "turtle terror" map several times, and more than once, I had my attack button not work. One run it took over a minute to get it to shoot *one volley* on Freya, and I wasn't having connection issues, or other "player-related" problems. It's weird. Also, unless we have some future quests that pay more than 10,000 event points, I think 1.5 million points is going to be hard to get. And that's even taking into account the tips mentioned above. A player shouldn't have to do every daily quest, make 100 trips into the terror map, and shoot 50 devourer's to get there. It becomes a full-time job, and this is supposed to be a game. That's just my opinion.

 

I stopped this event because it takes up all the free time i had, it is starting to feel like a job to play this game and it is not relaxing no more. 1.5 million points is an absurd amount. I play terror map like 20 times per hour and that only grants 40k points so thats not a lot; and it is repetitive as hell,

 

Ahoy Dream~Crusher!

We are currently on phase 2 of the event, there are 8 days of the event (and a full phase 3) to go.

1.5m event points is quite easy to be obtained if you play the game, however please be aware that doing the event completion is optional. You do not have to complete it on each and every event.

Ahoy $тїffгёя!

It would be better if you did hunt Devourers (just 1 hit in it) for an hour and then spend your time in turtle terror map to maximise your event points income.

Above you mentioned Arronax as another source of event points. I shot a bunch of them (some were sunk while I was on the map), but I didn't get any event points. So, I don't think they work like the Devourer.

 

Ahoy Bawdyn!

They do work the same. I have shot plenty and always had event points. However these may require a bit more than 1 hit to be eligible for the event points reward.

Rymar

 

I did more than one hit, but probably not past the 2% threshold that some event NCP have had in the past.

 

I have question for you Rymar, or any fellow pirate out there, I have one thing left in the event to finish and it's the point's to get to 1.5 mil should i be shooting everything to get points or is there something i can done to get more points, like a keep doing the quests or shoot event admirals or do the turtle map, (the solo map with the 2 turtles) to get more points i'm at 807,246....out of 1.5

Thanks

 

keep doing the quest and shoot npc's I was only shooting npc's was stuck at 1.1 for 2 days started doing quest again and up to 1.3 now will be 1.4 tomorrow after quest reset.

 

I may be wrong, but my understanding is that you can shoot say 10% off of one devourer, and if you move on to another one, and that one you shot didn't eventually get sunk, then you wouldn't ever get credit for it. The system wouldn't have any way to know that. If that's true, then you have to stay until it gets sunk to be certain, and those particular npcs are over 700 million hit points each. Granted, most of them probably will get sunk, but you can't be sure, unless you stay camped out on each one.

True - but the point of the "event completion" task (and the entire event in general), is to offer an entertaining challenge, along with a chance to earn prizes. I haven't forgotten a recent event where we learned - halfway through the event completion task - that it couldn't be finished. It was impossible. We never received an apology, or even a compensation voucher of any kind. So, there is a credibility issue.

 

Thanks EW for the advice, i appreciate you taking the time to help out an old dog cheers mate......be blessed

 

With the Devourers, you can hit just once and you get the 5k event points. You are correct that if it never gets sunk you get nothing. I went up to the Lost area (45/2, 50/2, 50/3) that I have access to and there were always plenty there. Not many people like to hang out there (self included) as the NCP are very aggressive. I would go and hit 2 or 3 in each map a couple of shots and then move on. I did that twice a day with the server reboot between them. Not all get sunk, but with them and the others I sought out I was getting 100-200k every day. I finished the 1.5 million today. It all comes down to volume. Hit lots a bit and the points roll in.

 

Ahoy -PUSAT-!

I can see that your fellow pirates answered your query.

Just for confirmation, doing the daily event quests + hits on Devourers you can easily obtain lots of event points per day.
