Happy Halloween The Hidden Forest!
Posted: Wed Oct 30, 2013 4:39 pm
It's officially that spooky time of year again where all the ghoulies and goodies come out to play! This year you will recognize numerous faces from years prior as well as many new ones that have decided to come out and enjoy all of the festivities!
With the destruction of the Demi-God of Corruption, the farmers of the Karanas had finally thought their days of dealing with dead crops and plagued air were over. However, with his last breath, Junal cursed the inhabitants of Norrath and such a curse does not go unanswered! This year, rumor has spread of a greater form of corruption that lingers in the air over the plains of Karana. The Demi-God of Plague has recently been rumored to have surfaced somewhere deep within the heart of Norrath. It is now, in their greatest hour of need that the people of Karana call to the defenders of The Hidden Forest for aid before it is too late...
New to the Halloween festivities this year, is an all new raid event in which the defenders of The Hidden Forest will find themselves face to face with the Demi-god of Plague. This event is designed for all guilds to be able to enjoy. The difficulty of the event scales between Tier 1 and Tier 8 difficulty depending on the number of tokens turned into Callixo the Orange in South Karana. Below you will find more information on the scaling system:
2 Tokens = Tier 3 Difficulty
3 Tokens = Tier 6 Difficulty
4 Tokens = Tier 8 Difficulty
Each difficulty has its own unique loot and challenges. On top of the loot, is an additional chance to obtain very powerful and rare items that can drop from any difficulty of the event. These new and powerful items are extremely rare, so make sure you show them off to your friends if you are lucky enough to obtain one!
To allow everyone a chance to enjoy the new raid event, each difficulty has a 24 hour lockout by guild once completed. This means that guilds can potentially have 4 attempts at obtaining the rare items each day that the festivities are live!
So gather up your costumes, grab a couple pillow cases for all the candy you plan to get, and get out there into the land of Norrath and start trick or treating!
