Gold Rush 2023 - Hunting Division
There are four (4) separate divisions as previous events have had. However, there is some updates to the creatures and structure. Creatures have grown a bit tougher than when they were last seen, we can only assume this is an effect of lack of culling that has occurred.

There are limitations imposed on the three first categories. The limits are as follows, creature levels in the parenthesis.

Category 1: Less than 145hp (7 & 13)
Category 2: Less than 200hp (35 & 62)
Category 3: Less than 300hp (55 & 104)
Category 4: Unrestricted (77 & 157)

Each run recorded on the missions is twelve (12) hours, and you need to complete minimum one twelve hour run to be able to compete. After your first twelve hours are reached, the mission will automatically switch to run two (2), the mission will count a maximum of ten (10) runs. If you complete run ten, you can still continue hunting in the event but you will not gain any more points.

Winner is decided based on the highest number of points in one (1) run, points is gained by killing creatures inside the instances. It doesn’t matter which of the ten (10) runs have the highest score.

YOU CAN ONLY WIN PRIZES IN ONE HUNTING CATEGORY
(you can only have one hunting mission active at a time)
