"Greedy Goblins" Event"
There are Goblins in Emporea! ...Searching for magical crystals needed for their huge mechanic Stonegrinders... Will you be able to get their cooperation?
The event lasts for 6 days. Players' job is to earn "Points" by raiding the event camps, fighting in Arena, sending alchemist ingredients & with friendly buildings speed-ups in order to collect "Goblin chest." (1000 Points = 1 Goblin chest).
Goblin chests can be crafted also in Alchemist.
Goblin chests contain many treasures, including 4 kinds of Gear parts. 1 of each kind is needed to create a Gear in the Forge. The Gear is the event basic "currency", necessary for obtaining other event items and objects (artifacts, units) in the event Shop.
Event Camps
Compared to raids of common neutral camps, players get much more resources, experience, greater artifact & rune drop chances in single attack on these event camps. (About runes, read also "Dynamic rune drop in event camps").
- Steam Factory - medium camp (31-40 level), 2 Command points needed to attack, neutral creep: grunts & goblin mechanics, loot:
- an attack adds 200 Points to "Goblin chest progress bar"
- chance to find valuable & rare artifact
- chance to find rune of earth
- random resource type
- Steam Factory - hard camp (41-60 level), 3 Command points needed to attack, neutral creep: grunts & goblin mechanics, loot:
- an attack adds 300 Points to "Goblin chest progress bar"
- chance to find valuable & rare & legendary artifact
- chance to find rune of earth or water
- random resource type
- Drilling Jumbo - very hard camp (70 level only), 6 Command points needed to attack, neutral creep: grunts & goblin mechanics & stonegrinders, loot:
- an attack adds 600 Points to "Goblin chest progress bar"
- chance to find valuable & rare & legendary artifact
- chance to find a rune of earth or water or fire
- random resource type
In case of joint attack / mass attack, every player of an attack gains 300 (600) Points into the "Goblin chest progress bar". In other words, the amount of attackers has no influence on gaining event objects.
Dynamic rune drop in event camps
- Rune of earth (II) can be found in Steam Factory medium
- Rune of water (III) can be found in Steam Factory hard, only after there are already common hard camps in the gameworld. Until then, Rune of Earth (II) is found in Steam Factory hard
- Rune of fire (IV) can be found in Drilling Jumbo, only after there are already common very hard camps in the gameworld. Until then, (II) OR (III - after there are already common hard camps in the gameworld) are found in Drilling Jumbo
Event Items
Goblin chest - an item that a player gets after reaching (each) 1000 "Points". Click the event icon on the lower right side of the screen to display the "Goblin chest progress bar". Each time after reaching 1000 Points, this window is displayed automatically and a Goblin chest is added to the Inventory. After a player reaches 1000 Points, he gets a Goblin quest, his progress bar is reset to 0 and he starts to earn Points for the next Goblin chest. (The remaining Points beyond the last 1000 are added to next progress, of course) Points can be earned by these activities:
- successful raid of a Steam Factory medium (all camp inhabitants have to be eliminated by the attack) - 200 Points
- successful raid of a Steam Factory hard (all camp inhabitants have to be eliminated by the attack) - 300 Points
- successful raid of a Drilling Jumbo (all camp inhabitants have to be eliminated by the attack) - 600 Points
- Arena fight (defeat counts as well) - 30 Points
- building speed-up in an allied city (speed-up only of buildings) - 3 Points
- sending of alchemist ingredient (only sent ingredients count) - 5 Points
Goblin chest can be also obtained by:
- Alchemist
- one recipe will be replaced with a "Goblin chest" recipe (for 1 Goblin chest) during the event time
- impossible to change the "Goblin chest recipe" for another during the event time (only ingredient composition of the recipe can be changed, once daily)
- be sure to craft or re-set any recipe after the start of the event, to get the "Goblin chest recipe" into the list!
