What's up guys and gals,

Get ready for another big event happening in Blackstone Keep!

Clean your swords and be ready to fight undead.
This event requires teamwork to survive this difficult zombie apocalypse!


WHEN AND WHERE

- SUNDAY - September 29, 2019 @ 1PM EST
-Blackstone: The Playful Maiden: Portal Room


RULES

Players will be put to the test to survive 5 waves difficult waves of a zombie apocalypse.
You will start off as a LEVEL ONE toon and after each wave, you will gain the XP to level up 5 levels, all the way up to level 20.
There will be 5 waves (1, 5, 10, 15, 20), there will be a boss after each wave that you and your fellow party mates will have to fight to move on.

Armor and weapons can be bought by a NPC trader after every wave, to accommodate you accordingly.
Gold will be dropped by zombies, and automatically given to you.

IF YOU DIE AT ANYTIME IN THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE, YOU WILL NOT BE RESPAWNED. AS YOU ARE DEAD.

The following will be prohibited during the event:

• No Resurrection spells/scrolls (raise dead, resurrection)
  No Healing spells/scrolls. You can only use class abilities and potions sold in the shop to heal.
  No Greater Sanctuary.
  No dietys (You must be normal with no god)

Toons will be made before the event starts, so come to the meet up point in the portal room with your normal toon.

If you think that paladins and clerics will work well, think again!

This is a NO PVP event. Meaning at no point is PvP allowed or required!

Everyone who participates will be teaming up together.
So know your mechanics and be ready to fight as a level one all the way up to 20, to fight the big boss at the end of the 5th wave.

If you can't follow these basic rules, you won't be allowed to participate in future events. (Which there will be plenty of)

REWARD BREAKDOWN

The following explains how the reward system will be broken down.

After each zombie kill, everyone will receive gold.
Use your gold at the end of the wave(s) to boost up your PC's gear or claim a variety of prizes.
The different tier of prizes is based on how many Gold you have.

Players who defeat the final boss have a chance to receive a special item.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A LOW TIER FORGE STONE WILL BE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST FOR ANYONE, JUST FOR PARTICIPATING.

If you have any questions at all, please let me know in a message, discord or ingame.

Driller will be helping me set this up, so when you get a chance thank him for his efforts!
THIS IS A HEAVILY DM INVOLVED EVENT. PLEASE THANK DRILLER GUYS! He's worked very hard putting this together for me/us.

I hope to see you all there, this will be a lot of fun!

Hm... Looks great to develop new character and, of course, new role. Also, it is good possibility to involve new blood.
How long event will be? In fact, it is very important thing to manage time, in specially for everyone, who live not in EST.

PS: If durability of event is about 2 hours, it applicable for me, but it is issue if it is much longer.

It won't be that long, maybe an hour or 2. Definitely not that long at all.

Hm ... it looks like everyone will create cleric. It looks interesting...

Create what you want, clerics and paladins may have been nerfed... you never know

In long term perspective cleric can be much more valuable for party as paladin.

As I see, people are very focusing to monks and weapon masters. But every party need good healer.

Hm, maybe it would be great to implement horse system for everyone, not for paladins only. Horseback is really fun.

Double check the rules, healing spells and scrolls aren't allowed. You may use class abilities and the potions from the shop.

Sounds like a great event, I think Sway needs a raise Driller. Hopefully I can make it on tomorrow.

... But only if you kill him first

Seriously though. Thanks for putting the coding edit into bringing this together Driller! Sway, I'd thank you but you pay yourself on the back enough. (J/k - thanks for driving the fun events buddy)

Can we still cast healing spells on the undead to hurt them if we don't heal ourselves?

Good question. Healing spells in general will be prohibited to prevent "accidents"..
