You forgot the part where you have to walk all the way back to the capitol after having delivered the goods from any of these 3 cities.
And also if you wish to avoid real players ambushing you, play at night time when there is only 1k online, thus so reducing the chance of it, which is what I'm gonna do since I have yet to face an AI. |
for Lawton:
Oh yes, just like the pirate event, you have to walk back to EC after you have transported goods, however, now you have to do it manually.
Admins have reduced cost of the stallion mount by 75% to help with it, and it is recommended everyone participating in the event should buy one.
More importantly I don't think doing this at night is going to make any difference, simply because there will always be a lot of thieves ambushing, and also there would be at least 3k online because this is an event. Since you got ambushed by a human, you should try doing it right now because I think there is a certain time limit(3 hours?) after getting ambushed during which you will ONLY face AI caravans :) |
Ok, I'm gonna go for it, let's see if I won't see a real player anymore.
Saw the first AI and won, but here is the weird part, I got the exact same 6117 exp when I had beaten that pumped dwarf player in ambush but now I got more sp, I got 3,73 sp while the dwarf had only given me 2,61 sp and was way harder, what a ripoff. |
for Lawton:
Yes of course you would get less in ambushing, simply because you can ambush infinite times a day. Even if you win all 12 escort games you will get 3.73*12=44.76 fsp, which is a lot, but if you got that much in ambushes and did 50 ambushes that would be INSANE... so obviously you will get less. Though even then 2.61 is very decent, 50 times that would mean 120.5 fsp, plus 40 from the event so 160 fsp if you are quite active and have a ton of gold to spare. |
Looks like the information of not getting an ambush by a player for 3 hours does not count, I just had another human ambush.
First one was at: 2015-11-28 22:35: 2015-11-28 22:01: •• Ereinion-Gil[15] vs Lawton[15]
Second one was at: 2015-11-28 23:55: •• _PGEN_[15] vs Lawton[15]
Looks like after just an hour you can encounter a human player again. |
Looks like the times didn't appear correctly, so here it goes again:
2015-11-28 22:01: •• Ereinion-Gil[15] vs Lawton[15]
2015-11-28 23:55: •• _PGEN_[15] vs Lawton[15]
We are almost in 2016 and there still has to appear an edit button on this forum, geez admins. |
| Yeah, I questioned whoever said that 3 hour thing... well at least we know the chance is 1/10 so you should face a human 1-2 times every 12 battles. |
| Um btw, in the pirate events our opponents get one less cannon than us if we had max-5 tonnes... do we get any advantage doing that in this event? |
| Oh and I'm already getting a profit from the event... 467 by trading goods and 520 by winning the battle, so 987, whereas my arts cost is only about 900 :) |
| What's destroying this event for me is DU... that's the only reason I would rate pirates better than this one. |
| randomr1 - You confused this forum with Twitter :P |
One question folks.
When is it recommended to buy a caravan? As soon as I can or wait until current caravan expires?
Thanks in advance |
for latawica:
What? xD
for Crazyfroggy:
Yup, ASAP :) |
| Great, got ambushed twice by humans today... both with DU :/ |
What kind of an event is this?
I am since recent combat level 15, since the event gives thief points I went for ambush. A maxed AP level 15 dwarf player appears, somehow I win, but get this:
As the winner I get 6117 exp, 600 gold, 1 TG and 2.61 sp
and the loser gets 6369 exp and 2,31 sp.
How come the losing side gets more exp then the winner? What is this?
I personnaly had a much better fsp ratio while loosing as the ambusher than while winning though I only did it 3 times so far. |
for Slust:
Yeah same here :)
Btw I'm finally pumped thanks to the event! :D 6540 exp in a hunt proves this ^^

^ Surely NOT one of the best :P
We are almost in 2016 and there still has to appear an edit button on this forum, geez admins. |
cant we just skip the caravan level?
lets say from caravan level 3 and want straight to upgrade it to level 5 |
