Hey everybody,
Today I’d like to present something
which hopefully raises your expectations towards the upcoming update:
our Halloween event which is going to start pretty soon.
But what's this event about?
Democritus, a famous philosopher and alchemist by trade,
will kindly offer his services to you.
Clicking the event icon will grant you access
to the alchemy window where Democritus is awaiting your orders.
Here, you can select a variety of ingredients to use in the brewing process.
You will be allowed to use
Harpy Claws,
Quicksilver,
Hydra Scales,
Centaur Hoofs,
Underworld Grass,
Cerberus Teeth,
Pegasus Feathers,
and Ambrosia.
From your collection of ingredients you will select exactly 3
and then give Democritus the order to mix them.
Depending on your chosen combination,
you will receive a certain reward
which you can either use instantly or stash in your inventory.
To make things even more convenient,
recipes that you have used for the first time
will be put into your recipe book automatically.
This way, you can repeatedly craft specific rewards if you wish.
You can also exchange your knowledge with friends
or other players from the community forums
to learn additional recipes.
Now you might ask how to get additional ingredients
to further pursue your career as an alchemist.
Well, that's simple; whenever you finish an Island Quest
you get a certain amount of ingredients.
Players with more points overall
get Island Quests less frequently
and will thus receive more ingredients per quest.
This way, all players can receive the same amount of ingredients per day,
which is up to 12.
By the way, there is a special goal to achieve.
If you manage to create 45 rewards in the course of the event,
you will be rewarded with a whole culture level.
But this can only happen one time during the event.
You can also obtain specific awards.
For instance, the award "Philosopher"
will be granted as soon as you have discovered
a certain amount of recipes.
The award "Alchemist" on the other hand
will be earned as you have created a certain amount of rewards.
Now, how about some secrets before this videocast is over?
You should definitely try to mix Quicksilver, Underworld Grass and Ambrosia,
to get a minotaur.
You want another hint?
Okay, just mix Hydra Scales, Centaur Hoofs and Ambrosia
and you will receive an instant favor package.
That should be enough for now.
I shouldn't make Democritus secrets public.
Alchemy is a science only a few can master.
Well, good luck everybody and happy Halloween!
