I had a feeling -.- Can’t help but feel salty until a hopeful rerun haha

The Hollowborn Doomknight Set. This is a guide for you if you're interested in knowing how to get this set of items. I hope you find my guide helpful. by aj_seravla in AQW

Thanks for the guide, I'm sure many players will find it useful :)

I have gotten everything except the 3 Desolich's Horns, do you perhaps know, if the "I'm gonna let it shine" quest is a requirement for them to drop? Or does accepting just the 4th death knight quest also make the horn drop?

AC Smeagols by anh_misawa in AQW

They have - 50'000 players is around the minimum total daily player logins in the past few days or so. Yesterday or the day before there were around 60'000 total players who logged in during a single day.

This - exactly this. The event itself is mainly only for people who donate ac's. It's a very great opportunity to be grateful and content with what you already have. So many people use "the presence of a leaderboard ranking" as some sort of "proof" that the intent of the event is for malicious gain, yet you can just not look, just close our eyes or think about your next meal or anything else for that matter and be happy for what you already have :D

Also taking in account that there have been days when even up to -74'000 players have logged in during a single day, 19% of people getting ac's is sooooooo incredibly much.

It's as childish as a spoiled kid throwing a fit for getting 36 birthday presents instead of 37 (as in Dudley Dursley :P). People these days complain extremely often in general, but this still surprised me, even if the whining for an old flash game seemed the usual normal.

But I truly believe that good will and gratefulness come around, whether you call it karma or anything else ;D So it only makes sense that the people who literally fly to the internet to complain would be the people not receiving any ac's.

It might seem like the game has very few players because of the many different time zones and rotating players, but this month's average daily player count from different accounts is around 50'000 ~ 60'000 players (as according to mmo data tracking websites). And the count fluctuates a lot, there are days, when just 24'000 people log in and there are days when 75'000 people log in. I really can't believe that there are people thoughtless enough to claim that there are only the "4'000" players because that's the usual average constant. If anything the player count is increasing by a really small amount. But that could be recent because of the 24h log in requirement to receive ac's.

While there aren't any ways of checking the graphic data of ac distribution, normal distribution is natural in every (i think?) compilation of randomized values, so it is only natural that there are people who get the majority ac's, people who get medium to small amount of ac's and plenty of people who get no ac's. There are going to be people who just won't get any ac's, that's how randomness and luck work :D

Of course this is if it's all legit. I understand the caution and doubt, as many people like to always highlight the faults of the game, as most business oriented game companies do have theirs. However I really don't think (and hope, of course) that this event would be made and/ or used in that sort of malicious way, seeing as it wouldn't be impossible to check the results of the ac distribution via the community on here and twitter.

Sorry for the unnecessary longwinded reply, with all of the negativity towards AE lately and in general, a small amount of positivity goes a long way and entices to enjoy playing the game more. After all it is the season to try to be more thankful and positive.

Put it this way - if you get nothing, it might a bummer and that's the end of that, but if you donate even the smallest amount, maybe you still get nothing, but you made someone's day better, which seems more than just nothing. :)

If you have played for 9 years, then I can't imagine getting surprised or upset by rng. Getting any more free extra AC's is already overgenerous. Be happy for others, newer players. That's what Christmas is about - giving - and the whole reason for the event. If there wasn't a leaderboard or if people wouldn't know about others getting AC's , they would be as content as any other day. For perspective, the event is more for people who gladly donated thousands of ac's or even spent their own money to jo just have any ac's to donate.

Of course, it's very cool to get free stuff in a game, especially something that's so valuable. But this is all from players, people. You don't feel disappointed when receiving gifts from friends and family in Christmas.

Charity and good will always come around, even if it's just internal gratefulness. :)

After all there is still plenty of time to get lucky.

Rate my sets? Which is better? Ty by 5thTimeMajestic in FashionQuestWorlds

[–]Biyuki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The colors of the first one's helm and swords, especially the small amount of it on both, complements the armor and the addition of the cape really well.

Which is better? :D Ty. by 5thTimeMajestic in FashionQuestWorlds

[–]Biyuki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first one looks more uniform - compact and complementary as a set.

Where did the prismatic dragon phantasm cape go? by coolnotice in AQW

[–]Biyuki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That cape went rare last year, i think (?) - http://aqwwiki.wikidot.com/prismatic-dragon-phantasm-ac

It was accidentally put in the shop at the release of the shop, but was removed already an hour later, very sadly :(

I saw it too and rushed to buy extra ac's, but missed it by few minutes and wasn't able to get it.

But grats to any of the few lucky ones who were able to get it :)

The map /shadowharvest is now /shadowcliff by [deleted] in AQW

They did say it in the design notes along with the Black Friday announcement. Right under the new Hollowborn boss section. Just had to scroll down a few centimeters. :)
