Server Events Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page

Is is it just me or do we only get server events that make playing even harder on the blood problems than it already is?
Last server event was +50% regenaration cost, now we got +200%.

I am sorry but considering how sparce blood already got in the higher levels / z3. How about rethinking the server events some? Or how about just leaving them off totally? Not like we gain anything much from them usually anyways :/

there are nice server events as well like:

Cursed Moon - +100% to HP resulting from Police Station
Stroke of Misfortune - decreased chance for a successful quest
Fresh Blood - cost of regeneration 50 %

and all players favourite one:

Night of Heroes - buildings bonuses apply to sieges and to expedition.

great chance for a lot of hops in siege and you can do golem expo alone :-)

Lol.

Anyone notice that the server events that are really good only last an hour or two, and the ones that are really bad last the whole day?

Do the devs actually know any other event except +200% or +50% regeneration cost or is that only to piss off the players some more?

The list of events is in wiki, there is at least one event that is clearly profitable for players.

So you are saying the system randomly turns on an event at an erratic time when it feels like it and it happens to be 80% of the time the regenaration cost thingy? :p
How about turning off that system totally then? The few events that are nice to have pop up like once a year so might as well have no events at all? Wink

i thought that the system generated a new event depending on the amount and value of items being destroyed.

just wondering whats the ratio of good events to bad events? and are the chances of getting one event exactly the same as getting another?

Most of the events are crap and we seem to get just the useless anyway, so I am for the idea to disable them. During the last year I think there was one (or maybe 2) events that actually helped somehow.
Or all the usable ones last 1 second.
Just look and tell me how many have you actually seen:

* Night of Ancient Gods - toughness +15
* Night of Long Knives - damage of all weapons +10
* Night of Heroes - buildings bonuses apply to sieges and to expedition.
* Curse of Gods - decrease of % for successful quest
* Fresh Blood - cost of regeneration 50 %
* Plague - cost of regeneration 200%
* Night of Bloody Gods - +100% HP during attack
* Earthquake - construction time +500%
* Stroke of Misfortune - decreased chance for a successful quest
* Dark Fears - Effects of buildings do not apply in ambush
* Cursed Moon - +100% to HP resulting from Police Station

I've seen all off them. Not all on this server of course ;P
The problem is that events are very rare.

its easy to say that the events are random. but then if they were, there would be the same likelyhood of the good ones happening too

I think i've seen them all, but unfortunately i did not get the chance to go on expo during "Night of Heroes". I think the frequency of random events should higher, but there should be a couple more positive events: higher chance of successful quest, +x luck, higher production of blood/people/lgo the possibilities are nearly endless.
