Wrath of Calypso

The Wrath of Calypso!​

The Wrath of Calypso - from 20th February until 3rd March, 2014

The Wrath of Calypso features the following:

• New Odysseus ship design
• New Undine Pet
• New Special Zones
• New Heartbreaker Ammo
• New Lost Love and Unstoppable Action Items!

The event will start at 12 noon (local server time) on 20th February and end at noon on 3rd March (local server time). The Black Market will be open until 12 noon (LST) on 6th February.

Event NPCs

During the Wrath of Calypso you will find two event NPCs on the Sea Chart the whole time; Penelope and Odysseus. The Penelope NPC can be shot with gold ammo and will sail over all PvP maps. When she gets killed a special Lost Love zone will spawn where she dies. If you manage to lure the Odysseus NPC into this zone you will make a lot more damage against him, making him much easier to kill! Against Odysseus you need to use pearl ammo.

You are also able to create your own Lost Love zone which works in the same way as the one Penelope drops. You can buy the Lost Love zone as an item in the Black Market or payment section. It can be used on all NPCs except Admiral NPCs, Guild Towers and monsters.


First Part

During the first part of the event from 20th February 12 noon (LST) to 26th February, 12 noon (LST) Sirens will appear on the PvP maps. They can cast a special Sirens Singing zone which will make any player standing inside it “Infatuated”! This Infatuated debuff causes you to temporarily lose control of your ship and move around randomly for 10 seconds. Although you can’t shoot whilst being infatuated, you are able to use all of your Action Items.

As soon as the Infatuated debuff is triggered by any player, the Sirens Singing zone will disappear for a short period of time. After a certain time or as her health goes down the zone will get triggered again, eventually getting bigger until it is finally too big for even the most far reaching cannons to shoot! Therefore, one player must sacrifice himself and sail into the zone which will cause it to temporarily disappear. If several players are standing inside the Sirens Singing zone when it is activated they will all get Infatuated! You can use the rare new Unstoppable Action Item to break free from this infatuation (more information below)!


Second Part

During the second part of the event, from 26th February, 12 noon (LST) until 3rd March, 12 noon (LST) Calypso will spawn to avenge the death of her beloved Odysseus! When an Odysseus NPC gets sunk there is a 5% chance that his death will result in Calypso spawning. Calypso has a huge amount of hit points and will be accompanied by 4 Tentacles! These Tentacles can be shot with gold ammo but will keep respawning as Calypso’s hit points get reduced. As soon as Calypso has been sunk, all remaining Tentacles will despawn. To fight against Calypso you need to use pearl ammo.

Please note : if the Calypso is not attacked for 10 minutes (if it’s left there on its own for 10 minutes at any time) it will automatically despawn.
This is a mechanic added to prevent the sea chart potentially overloading with NPCs which would greatly reduce the server performance.


Rewards

The rewards from Penelope are Cursed Souls and are shared depending on how much damage you make against it. However, you must make at least 15% damage in order to qualify to get any reward.

The rewards from Odysseus are Radiant Souls and crystals and are also shared depending on how much damage you make.

The rewards from the Sirens are pearls and Radiant Souls depending on how much damage you make but you have to cause at least 5% damage against the Sirens to get the souls.

The Tentacle’s give items such as crystals, a 60 pounder, mojos and black power to the player who makes the last shot to sink it.

Finally, the Calypso drops pearls which are shared depending on how much damage you make against it.

All NPCs also give some Experience Points as a reward.


Event Ranking?

Points can be obtained by making the last shot against any of the above Event NPCs. At the end of the event the top player on each server will get a Libra Bonus Map. The next 4 players on each server will get an Aquarius Map and 5 randomly chosen players per server (who made it into the top 100 in the ranking) will get a Taurus Bonus Map.

Odysseus ship design

The powerful Odysseus ship has the following stats:

• Elite level 0-22: Bonus Damage: 13%, Bonus Hit Points: 65,000, Bonus Voodoo Points: 32,500.
• Elite level 23-24: Bonus Damage: 14%, Bonus Hit Points: 71,000, Bonus Voodoo Points: 35,000.

The ship design also has a 10% bonus on harpoon damage, no matter what your elite level is.


Undine pet

The stunning Undine pet will increase your hit chance by 5% and also reduce your chances of getting hit by 10%!


Unstoppable Action items

The mighty and extremely rare Unstoppable action item can be bought in the Black Market as a one-time buyable package containing 50 Unstoppable items. It allows you to instantly stop the effect of certain debuffs such as Smokebombs, Freezing and the Infatuated debuff. However, the item does not stop the effect of Speed debuffs. Due to the impressiveness of this item it will be extremely rare. There will be a cooldown of 5 minutes in-between uses of this item.


Lost Love Action Item

The Lost Love action item can be bought in the Black Market and works like the zone spawned after Penelope is killed. It can ONLY be used against NPCs, but not against Calypso, Admirals, Island Towers and Monsters. The zone will be dropped where you use the item.

If the item is overlapped on the Sea Chart it will not cause more damage. The zone will last for 1 minute and there is a cooldown on the item of 10 minutes before you can use it again. It can ONLY be used on the main Sea Chart (ie: not on any of the other maps such as the Bonus Maps, Raid Map or Kraken Map).


Heartbreaker Ammo

This new powerful and mysterious ammo will cause a huge damage of 90! When using the ammo there is also a 3% chance of causing the Infatuated debuff against other players or NPC ships (this debuff does not work on the Calypso, Admirals or Island Towers). This ammo will cause a greatly increased damage against all of the Event NPCs.


Payment Packages

There will be several payment packages available during the event including packages for Snake Keys, Heartbreaker Ammo and the Lost Love Action Item. You will also be able to purchase the Souls from 27th February until 3rd March, 12 noon (CET).

There will also be an exclusive Love Is Pain Package – this is one-time buyable and contains 200,000 Heartbreaker Ammo, 25 Lost Love Action Items, 50 Snake Keys and 25 of the extremely rare Unstoppable Action Item!


Souls and event keys

The Cursed and Radiant Souls will be exchanged for in-game items at the end of the event. Specific details will be revealed nearer the end of the event. The Snake Keys will also be replaced by normal chest keys at a ratio of 1:1.


Black Market

All items in the Black Market will be available to purchase until 6th March end of the day (Local Server Time) when the Black Market will close.

 

Lost Love action items now last 5 minutes on the Sea Chart and will allow you to make far more damage than before.

The amount of damage caused by the Heartbreaker Ammo against the Event NPCs has been greatly increased.
