    Gold Rush 2024


    Start: Monday Dec 23, 2024

    Time: 15:00 UTC


    End: Sunday Jan 19, 2025

    Time: 23:59 UTC


    Prize structure:

    • Daily prizes to the highest single loot during the day for both Hunting* and Mining** 500 PED each.
    • Weekly prize for the highest single loot during the week for Hunting* and Mining** 1,250 PED each.
    • Main prize to the avatars with the highest score from both Hunting* and Mining.
      • 1st prize: 15,000 PED
      • 2nd prize: 10,000 PED
      • 3rd prize: 5,000 PED
    • Bonus prize daily and weekly prizes for Hunting and Mining on Arkadia Moon***.
      • Daily prize 20 Moon Deeds to the avatar with the highest single loot during the day for both Hunting and Mining on the Moon.
      • Weekly prize, 50 Moon Deeds to the avatar with the highest single loot during the week for both Hunting and Mining on the Moon.


    One avatar can only win one daily PED and one daily Moon Deed prize per week, and one weekly PED and weekly Moon Deed prize during the event period.


    Ex. One avatar can win one daily PED prize as well as one daily Moon Deed prize per week, and at the end of the week the same avatar can win the weekly prize for both PED and Moon Deed.

    The following week the same avatar can win another daily PED and daily Moon Deed prize, but is not eligible for the weekly prize as they won the prize the week prior.


    The tracking of points will be made by MindArk. Every global of 50 PED or more gives one point and every PED above equals one point, loot below this threshold are not counted. And you can compete both through hunting as well as mining.

    Ex.A loot of 51 PED = 1 point for the global + 51 bonus point = 52 points.

    A loot of 183 PED = 1 point for the global + 183 bonus points = 184 points


    Gold Rush Hunting is done at the Gold Rush instances available near the Aakas Teleporter /wp [Arkadia, 11204, 9679, 249, Gold Rush] , creatures that count Magurg Breeder and Magurg Patriarch. There are no limitations to enter the instances so you can hunt whichever level you feel comfortable with.

    Gold Rush Mining can be done throughout the Arkadia areas (planet, moon and underground).


    Daily and Weekly winner spreadsheet can be found here:

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13u2Mu6xfZkmSalf_8ktbSvc_G0aMbBxCF6QsUGjMewY/edit?gid=0#gid=0

    (If you are able run entropialife.com tracker, or printscreen globals/hof incase not all are registered)


    After 24hours the winners can collect their prize, contact Zephyrus. (during Xmas days i will be on only few hours, but you can message me on discord directly and i will get online if i are able.)


    *Creatures that are counted for the daily and weekly hunting prizes are the Gold Rush instance creatures, Magurg Breeder and Magurg Patriarch only.


    **For daily and weekly mining entries only Arkadia specific resources are counted.


    ***For daily and weekly Arkadia Moon prizes only Moon surface creatures count. Not instanced creatures.




    We wish you all a merry Xmas and and a happy new year from us in the A-team

    Nice one! You guys kept your promise that this year you would finally change the rules.

    Really nice to see everyone has a chance to win something now.

    Before it was completely geared for exploiters and people running alt accounts to scoop up all the prizes. Brilliant.

    I just have a couple questions, On the planet you have to hunt in the instance for it to count, but on the moon it's anything? Does that include if you are hunting Abominations in the smuggler instance?

    No quests this year and you don't need to talk to the Quest giver NPC , you can go straight in to the Gold Rush Pavilion that is beside him and you will get to choose what category you want to hunt in.
