Summer Fiesta 2022
Posted: July 27th, 2022, 3:38 am
Howdy!
First off, if you don't have auto-update enabled for Classic, make sure you update the game!
Now, then. Let's Fiesta! Until the 25th of August, the EHR is celebrating Summer in all its glory, and its less glorious aspects. Anyone who's played through one of our harder Fiesta mission packs knows what we're talking about. For those of you that haven't, there are 5 multi-species competitions lasting 6 days each and 3 Mission Packs. They'll test your knowledge, your skills, your tenacity, and, to a degree, your luck. All missions allow multiplayer, so don't flake out on us yet.
Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! This event is going to work a bit differently, so read on. Don't do that thing where you skip everything and then complain you didn't know about something.
While we're considering this an event, it isn't going to function like one. There are no special point$ to collect, no fancy banner and calendar. Activate your missions from the mission page and your comps from the competition page as you normally would.
All three mission packs will be available for the duration (the hardcore pack, Spice Things Up, unlocks after completing the easier Colorful Smelly Candies mission). A Hard Nut to Crack is available from the start.
The tiered comps run for six days each, they do not overlap. The Weightsaver Bonanza comp runs for the full 30 days. You have 30 attempts BUT one new animal will be added every Monday and Thursday. Remember to deactivate the comp in between sessions so you don't waste attempts. Highest combined weight wins. To be eligible, you need at least one harvested animal of each species.
CALENDAR
Event Duration: 30 days
Start: 27 July 2022 (Wednesday) - morning
End: 25 August 2022 (Wednesday) - 23.59 UTC
MISSIONS
As explained, but you probably skipped it, all three mission packs will be available for the duration (the hardcore pack, Spice Things Up, unlocks after completing the easier Colorful Smelly Candies mission). A Hard Nut to Crack is available from the start. You can play them in Multiplayer.
Remember that the Fiesta is our event for the hardcore players. Anyone should be able to complete Colorful Smelly Candies. The other two will require a little more effort. Spice Things Up is split into 3 missions, so give it a try if you can. You may not be able to complete the whole pack, but you can still win part of the prize.
Colorful Smelly Candies:
A total of 8,000 gm$, 100 em$, a trophy, a Tent and some Camping Supplies.
A Hard Nut to Crack:
A total of 4000 gm$, 250 em$, a trophy and a 1 Month Unlimited Ammo Pass.
Spice Things Up:
A total of 4,500 gm$. 500 em$, a trophy and a Tripod Stand
COMPETITIONS
The event comes with six competitions, 5 tiered comps that last a week each and one that lasts the duration!
WEIGHTSAVER BONANZA
Each of the shorter competitions comes with 7 tiers based on your Hunter Score:
Cream of the Crop
A Piece of Cake
Use Your Noodle
Chew the Fat
The Gravy Train
RULES
What would a game be without rules?
We have one simple rule for our events: No exploitation of existing game mechanics to gain an advantage. All winners' hunts will be checked by EW staff prior to prizes being rewarded, and the decision will be final.
In case of exploits usage, EW has a right to disqualify the player from this event.
SALES
Make hay while the sun shines, in this case it's a Grand Sale! All the items listed will be on sale for the duration of the Fiesta.
Make sure to check out the Sale section to see the full list!
That's all folks, any questions, feel free to post them below.
Enjoy all!
It'll pop up once you've finished the Candies one.
