Hey Justine,

Is it Holliday Jellyworm ?
Christmas Clothes are in loot too for this year ?

I think there's some hats in there as well, but not the other clothing.

Cheers,
Kris

 

[sostoned]

you realize that hardly anyone can hunt these mobs?

I came to cyrene for them but i can go within a minute. No point bein here.

I like cyrene but too bad, just another fuckup

 

[mastermesh]

There is some level 3 and 8s out there, but they are hard to find. Majority are level 57. Mommas are protecting the young extremely well...

Also, is this the "only" xmas stuff on Cyrene, or are 'gifts' expected as well? Santa already dropped by Calypso and Arkadia. Will he be hitting cyrene too in the near future?

(Level 8s are fairly easy to kill solo with gremlin or similar level armor)

Wear some Acid Plate, it will be more easier

This is Shared loot mob, so no need to be easier, just need more pple on them.
When there is events on Ark or Calypso, nobody complain about Mulmun or Feffox or Atrox queen or Oratant etc.. difficulty .

Something is very wrong.
its a 10k hp mob.. it gives globals of 18 ped etc

[Globals]: Team "(Shared Loot)" killed a creature (Epic Holiday Jellyworm) with a value of 18 PED!

We had a couple of globals like this.. but we can't hunt these if that is the global threshold. Its simply throwing ped into a toilet.

What does the global threshold have to do with returns? 10k hp cost somewhere upwards of 33 ped to take down. If half of that is enough to trigger a global message it simply means every kill is on the public record. See if there are anywhere near enough to iron out the dynamic. Big mobs, big gamble.

Hey guys,

Just wanted to chime in here to answer some questions:

Also, is this the "only" xmas stuff on Cyrene, or are 'gifts' expected as well? Santa already dropped by Calypso and Arkadia. Will he be hitting cyrene too in the near future?

There were some Christmas treats setup to go out but I'm unsure as to why the didn't get delivered, it's being looked into now.

This was an oversight on our part: the Rare loot threshold on the Epic Holiday Jellyworms is 15 PED, and it shouldn't need to use the custom system, so unfortunately any loot that's more than 15 PED will spam the globals.

San hits the nail on the head:

10k hp cost somewhere upwards of 33 ped to take down. If half of that is enough to trigger a global message it simply means every kill is on the public record.

Thanks for all the feedback on this event, it will help us improve and make each one better than the last.

Cheers,
Kris

If some people could post some globals that are at least double the amount of the cost to kill, then I might try some more.

Saw one 3xx-pedder yesterday.
The highest tracked by EL is 260 PED at this time but not sure if those worms last week were the same size.

ok will keep shooting some more

 

[mastermesh]

are the weapons L or UL?

 

[Spawn]

I haven't looted a single weapon.
The global threshold is also not good for lower dps players. There are a lot of 18 ped globals. with my knife and ml-35 I do quite some dps compared to others. One of the common loots is animal spleen oil (5 ped oil)
I get 2 of those a lot meaning 8 ped is left for the other 7 hunters. That's not fair.

Lol you always complain XD
Well, you know how it work or you are new in game ?
This mob cost 33ped to kill, average loot (setup by MA is 50% of the cost to kill).
About loot composition, the only complain i can do, is these weapons are not available in loot, like Voucher, Xent tech Rifle X2, X3, RSB and RLB series and i miss probably more.

This is a shared loot, so there is winners and losers, this like that all time and in all event. You want a equal loot between all players, ask to MA to put only Shrapnel, i'm sure it will be more fair for you but you'll never got MU and you'll probably loose tons of ped quickly. Spleen OIl have a good MU this is a good thing.

What about weapon ? Ask to remove them too, when they will start to drop, only 1 will get it, like ESI. If that happen and it's not you, you'll complain here for say IT'S NOT FAIR ?

Don't forget, you play against other players, never against MA or Planet Partners

Have fun and Happy Christmas

Reread my post. I got plenty of loot. Merry x-mas to you too

Hey guys,

Let me answer these as I can:

are the weapons L or UL?

The holiday themed weapons are Limited.

I haven't looted a single weapon.
The global threshold is also not good for lower dps players. There are a lot of 18 ped globals. with my knife and ml-35 I do quite some dps compared to others. One of the common loots is animal spleen oil (5 ped oil)
I get 2 of those a lot meaning 8 ped is left for the other 7 hunters. That's not fair.

I've already contacted MindArk today about this to see what's taking so long for these weapons to shake out.

When I have more information from them I'll reply to this post.

Cheers,
Kris

 

[Justine]

Thanks Kris for this answer.

I appreciate the effort you made on this event. You learn I feel it will be better next year !

 

[krasko]

Event sux for players on lower budget.
Lower level mobs are too few.

Perhaps next year 2-3 separate spawns with different maturities.

Thanks for this feedback, and I think you're exactly right for next spawn event, it'll need to have more levels of mobs and be separate but in the same vicinity.

Agreed 100%

Kris
