    Beast'r Eggstravaganza is now active on Test!

    May the flora and fauna across this wondrous world rejoice, for the season of Growth has begun! We are no longer held within the season of Decay's oppressive grip. The Mother of All has melted the cold with her embrace and shaken the stagnation from our roots and limbs. Praise Tunare in deed and word! Thank the goddess, as is her due, that we may never know the day she withholds her blessings of renewal and invigoration.

    Even if you do not consider yourself a child of Tunare, you are welcome to dance with us at our celebration locations found around the major cities, see what new items the Eggschangers have, and search out new and returning beast'r eggs, excitedly bouncing about. Those who collect all of them are bestowed a special title!

    Yeah, it's a bit chaotic and twirly implementing and monitoring testing during this time of year, too! I am very glad to see everyone enjoying the events!

    Yeah, 4 concurrent live events *collapses in gibbering heap*.

    I just spent very nearly 3 hours before I got the 5th new egg for the achievement, by which time I had 4 of each of the others. I presume this is just rng stupidity? I'll try another toon tomorrow with a different rng seed and see how it goes.

    Also a thought for next year. All my toons everywhere are drowning in eggs. They all have the pet (only 1 usable per toon) and 1 house item each and then on every server I have a house somewhere that is absolutely filled with spare bouncing eggs! Any chance of getting some kind of merchant exchange to swap out 10 random eggs (in any combination) for a large omelette or something? :D I've tried to stop picking them up, but it's a compulsion - ooh, shiny! *click* Aaagh! :oops:

    Ok I cannot find the merchant in DLW that has the soot foot bunny or the overseer quest. And . . I was REALLY hopping for a bunny HOUSEPET/PLUSHIE. NOT a pet spell. I have an HHE house I am doing that requires BUNNIES

    OH yea. . . and another thing. . . We cant turn in ALL of the EGGS to the Merchant for Egg pets? What do we do with the excess collected eggs? DESTROY them????

    Not this year, nope. Offering house pets of the new eggs from the exchangers are part of the plan for next Eggstravaganza. Glad you are enjoying the bouncy fun!

    I managed to find all new eggs in under half an hour, did you change the spawn rate of the new ones Kaitheel ?
    :D
  17. Kaitheel Developer

    Thank you for the help testing and providing feedback, even while suffering server stability issues.

    I'll be giving Beast'r and Bristlebane Day 4/1 content a few more days to be active on Test, as a result, but know that today was the cut-off for getting feedback in time to be taken into account for this year. (I can't affect live event design deadlines, sadly.) Thankfully, you focused on these events pretty quickly and feedback was delivered swiftly.

    I appreciate your time and feedback, and as you all can attest, your input always helps to impact the events enjoyed by all of Norrath!

    :eek: O noooo I just looked at the calendar and there is 2 months of virtual nothingness .
    our busy live will come to a screeching halt , besides City Fest and Moonlight Enchantment there is just empty space .
    I guess this a good time to hibernated , already suffers from withdrawal symptoms in advance .
  20. Kaitheel Developer

    hehehe

    Enjoy that hibernation, test crew! Meanwhile, it gives me time to do as much as I can, so when I am slammed with [redacted] work from July through December, that I don't have live events to implement, too.
