Hey guys,

 

Today’s update brings with it a few Halloween events, including the ability to find some rare pumpkins if you search diligently through the world! You’ll also have the chance to help out the Grim reaper, who is located at home in Edgeville, to stop something devastating from happening this Halloween.

 

 

  • Halloween updates:
    • Pumpkin season!
      • There are several locations around the world where pumpkins have been witnessed growing from the ground!
        • These are not easy to find, and will likely not re-appear in the same place twice. Get hunting, and find yourself a pumpkin to call yours!
          • Hints: Pumpkins will grow near grassy areas (usually the greenest areas), typically not too far off the beaten track. This means that you won’t find them in areas that are unused/unreachable in Alora (eg. Priffidinas), but you could find them near the boundaries of a city in a place that would not be frequented. Think outside the box!
          • There are only a limited number of pumpkins existing in the world at any given time. Once one is found, another will respawn elsewhere. It is unlikely for a pumpkin to spawn in the same spot twice, although it is possible, just not right after it is picked up (some time must have passed).
    • Jonas event:
      • The Grim Reaper has had a thorn in his side which he hasn’t been able to shake off! As you will soon find out, not all ghosts are friendly, and a particular ghost — Jonas — has been attempting to escape the spectral realm. 
        • You’ll have to use your cleverness to solve some riddles and find all of the locations where Jonas’ ghost has been before he is able to escape.
          • Some areas are outside of the usually travelled parts of Alora, (eg. In the desert), so make sure to keep your horizons broad to solve these riddles!

 

  • Website updates:
    • Halloween additions:
      • You have probably noticed the slightly spookier than usual logo. Big thanks to @Chase for designing it!
        • You’ll also notice some bats flying around on the homepage!
    • Store updates:
      • Marble blocks can now be purchased by ironman / classics.

 

  • Halloween/Birthday Store Sale:
    • Double token bonuses:
      • Buying tokens will now reward you with double the usual boost:
        • For example, buying $40 worth of tokens would get you 50 free tokens. Instead of 50, you’ll get 100 tokens while this sale lasts!
    • For a limited time, the following items are available in the shop:
      • Black h’ween mask
      • Jack lantern mask
      • Scythe

 

  • General updates:
    • Food:
      • Baguettes are now edible
      • Pumpkins are now edible
    • Superior Slayer encounters fix:
      • When being faced with a Superior Slayer encounter and having immediately teleported before, the encounter would sometimes spawn in the newly teleported area (eg. Your house, or Edgeville). This will no longer happen, as the encounter will only spawn near the location where the Slayer NPC had died.
    • Scythe holding animation fixed
    • Construction head mounts permanently fixed:
      • KBD head, Abyssal demon head, KQ head, Kurask head, Basilisk head, Cockatrice head
    • Clan chat fix:
      • Staff/support ranks will now override ironman/classic symbols in clan chat messages
    • Secateurs added to the following shops (for Construction build requirements):
      • Farming supply shop
      • Classic supply shop
      • Ironman supply shop
    • Light ballista update:
      • This ballista can now fire Dragon javelins.
    • Herb sack fix:
      • Herb sack is no longer stackable.
      • Herb sack should now go to the lost items shop if lost on death, although all items within will be dropped.
    • Bonus XP change:
      • If you go AFK and leave your account logged in, your bonus XP will eventually stop going down (after a few minutes of being AFK). This way, even if you leave your account logged in, your bonus XP won’t run out for no reason.

To get you guys started, I’ll give away the location of the first pumpkin. Remember, once this one is picked up it won’t spawn here again! Good luck :)

Happy Halloween!

Hell yeah! Nice updates for sure. Bonus XP timer update?! Say whaaaa?!

 

There's an error that says 'Line1' before ending dialogue with Grim Reaper @Omicron, so you're aware.

Needless to say quite the batch of updates you got there @omicrom you always seem to find a way to surprise us. How-ever I'm interested as to when you will be focusing or directing some time and effort into the forums as there are currently a few minor issues that I believe need addressing, which can be found here.

On a side note, i like the afk timer for increased xp ( vote books ) but wouldnt have been easier to add a "toggle" turn off and on, when we want to use vote book experience?
