Hi everybody, hope you're enjoying the event!

Just wanted to let people know, the Pumpkin Harvest game has been updated.
  • A certificate is given to players just for participating, at the end of the game where players regularly pick up their rewards from the orc.
  • The debuffing Jakks now have a timer on when they can cast a debuff on the same player.
  • The Big Ol' Pumpking no longer has a point penalty.

If you run into any problems, please let me know!
Thanks.

Thank the lord.

So you have to harvest 10 holes.
But only 8 on map
Im assuming its up to you to find the last two holes?
And can you make it to where we fight the jakks?
And it drop some certificates?
99% - Human
1% - Troll


I feel like people are just arguing with phi because he is thephi and they are all still salty/hate him.

10 holes. Sometimes you get unlucky and harvest 2 pumpkins. I wish we could kill all the jakks. I got confused by one and ran into a small gang of debuffers.

I have a question/suggestion regarding the ghost hunting.

How many ghosts are on each map? I have never gotten more than 3 ghosts per map, and if the number is small, say, 3-5, how fair is that when there are 6+ people per map?

Could the number of overall pumpkinrings be increased, including the number of ghostrings? Maybe to make up for it, decrease the 30 minute time limit. If you have a lot of people on the map, 30 minutes is hardly necessary.

For example, this time of day seems to have a lower number of players, and I was able to get, I think, 5 between 2 maps. I would argue for an event that occurs every couple of hours, this isn't a bad number, (though I would still think it's low, but that's my opinion). However, when there are say 5-8 players per map, it's a lot more difficult for people to even get one ghostring, let alone 2 or 4.

My suggestion is to tweek different aspects (increased number, decreased timeline, etc) to make it that each player could potentially earn about 4-6 tickets per ghost poring event. This would mean adjusting the heavier trafficked times, and leaving the lower trafficked times roughly the same.

Oh! And can we have a counter on the map to keep track of the pumpkins, like the counter that's on the PVP maps that tells you how many people are on per map?

If it didn't change from 2 years ago, then its 3 per map iirc

I dunno about each player getting 4-6 tickets per hunt, especially if you're talking about 5-8 per map, but an increase to maybe 5 per map wouldn't be that bad

The counter part would be quite nice

No worries!  We've been monitoring the numbers of players on each map during this activity to see whether we need to raise the number of ghosts due to population changes.  It seems we've got roughly twice as many participants this year, so I have an alternative idea in mind to enhance this depending on how busy we are.

As an observation and note, the Pumpkin Festival segment of the Halloween event seems to have originally been designed as a daily login bonus style event rather than a 1-2 day "give it your all" affair (whether intentional or not).  The only thing that doesn't fit that mold is the Mysterious Pumpkin activity, but it is also somewhat restrictive to presumably avoid too heavily rewarding players who do have the time to hunt them all day.  This was also likely designed under the impression that anywhere from 1-5 players might actively chase the pumpkins at any particular time of day and that any number of extra certificates was a big deal.

(I only bring that up to try to help explain why some of the event activities are set up the way they are, not as any sort of excuse as to why we can't or shouldn't adjust anything at this point.  :))

It was Fidelis who felt extremely burned by the previous events with people(myself included) coming out with a multitude of rewards and going back and making money off of them.

By the way, didn't the mysterious pumpkins give 3-5 tickets instead of 1?

/ok

Hmm, the ghosts have only ever given out one ticket each as far as I'm aware.

BLOODY FOR SCIENCE!

Albert and his cohorts are investigating the cause of the outbreak. What can you do for your fellow man?! Are you capable enough to get to the bottom of this?! Albert may just be willing to reward extra for those who exceed expectations...

Rather annoying Quest, especially "The Source" part of it. :x

Edit : Would be more enjoyable if the Spotlight wasn't active on Nameless, those mobs. :|

One of the prizes from the pumpkin bags, the Egnigem Cenia Scroll has a weight of 1, but is soulbound. Please make this account bound so I can store it, or take away the 1 weight.

Soulbound and account-bound restrictions on most Anniversary Box and Pumpkin Festival pet eggs will be removed in the next update.

Maybe they can do it for the Scrolls too, if they're nice enough.

This! This is my other complaint with this event. I could waste 30-45 seconds just getting cursed/confused and recursed and confused (by the same Jax) and be unable to get away. The worst scenario was when I spent 30 seconds cursed/confused, and then couldn't get away from the giant pumpkin poring that ultimately killed me.

Holy Water much?
Dumbass.

Damn, what crawled up your ass and died? Sorry you've probably only done it on Champ, which none of the Status Effects matter since you can just Body Relocate everywhere.
