    As stated please be considerate, as most items are tt, if you do not need them, please give them to someone who does, or show a newer player where they are. Just bit of Courtesy =)

    I found a Terramaster 1 while doing some cattle herding. I didn't pick it up, as I was a bit occupied at the moment. :)

    Yes they are on the ground, can be found anywhere from Celeste Harbour, to Celeste Quarry, to the grassy area around Celeste Quarry. I did my best NOT to hide them in the grass, but on flat areas where they will stick out. However at night the items may be hard to find, im confident daytime will make them easier.

    ok due to some misleading information, let me clear up a few things.

    THIS IS A PRIVATE event, not MA official, therefore Items do not just spawn. I have to personally drop these items everyday to ensure that everyone has a chance to find something. i expect about 90-95% of the people who find something will not say anything, to try to have that competitive edge. This is by no means an advantage, i am random in my drops and will NOT use same place more than once. If all Items have been found that day, please be respectful and not call the event a scam, more will be dropped the next day, this event is coming out a joint fund that has been ingame since the last March on Troy event, and also out of my pocket and others who are dropping things as well.

    we did not drop all the items of first day to ensure you all have a chance, not just the early bird competiton lovers. =) So please be respectful, as this is real items being dropped by real players most of which is out of their own pockets to aid and assist new players. Many of these players and such as myself are not obligated to do these events, we do them because we feel that that the outcome will benefit everyone.

    So again...please be respectful, i dont appreciate some of the comments i have heard so far ingame by frustrated people...

    Yes Raven, some confusion going on since it was mentioned in the release notes, many think this is an official Arkadia or MA event where things will 'spawn' or be looted. Thanks for clearing it up that this is a player run event, for and by players, and for newcomers primarily. Good luck to everyone, and as Raven says, if you don't find something today, try again tomorrow, this is a month long event :)

    Oh, I'll keep looking.

    During a single day of the event, are all the items put down at once, or over the whole day?
