woohoo been crafting mats used in some high TT crafts, may be able to sell for alot more then current MU
Just to clarify: The person that gets crafting HSL on Ark on 2014 Dec. 18 gets Arkadian Key 6 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR. The person that gets crafting HSL on Ark on 2014 Dec. 19 gets Arkadian Key 7 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR. And so forth?
Okay so let me break it down this way. If you get the highest Crafting PED Loot (HSL) for the day, you will receive Arkadian Key 6 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Arkadian Key 7 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Arkadian Key 8 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Arkadian Key 9 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Arkadian Key 10 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Meaning you get all the above 5 Blueprints spawned to your account. Now the player who gets the highest of them all during the 5 day period, will get these. Arkadian Key 1 Blueprint (unlimited) -100QR Arkadian Key 2 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Arkadian Key 3 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Arkadian Key 4 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Arkadian Key 5 Blueprint (unlimited) - 100QR Hope this clarifies everything. Best regards Dylan
Awesome, a non hunting event! Great that some love is given to other professions. Just to be sure I understand the rules: It says: "the highest single loot will win the prize for the day". So the "Highest Crafting PED Valued Loot" is the HSL, and not the highest ped value of someone's total crafting loot per day? Looking forward to it! edit: oh all BP for 1 winner? I thought it was 5 winners each day.
It is better to announce this perhaps at least a week earlier. (Instead of 3.5 hours prior to the start) This should allow participants to make sufficient preparations and more revenue on the sponsors balance sheet. Nevertheless, this event is pure awesome.
are those prizes ?sdrawkcab just wondering, thought the lvl 1-5 would be daily, and 6-10 would be the final....
6-10 Daily, for the HSL crafter on Ark. (So 5 sets of these will be given out) 1-5 bonus for the HSL amongst all 5 days (2014 Dec. 18, 19, 20, 21, 22) of the event.
Thanks for the clarifications Dylan. And while I'm clicking away, perhaps a small suggestion for next time: The HSL winner for the whole event is going to be the someone who already won a daily HSL. Maybe it could be nice if there is also one (smaller) prize for quantity globals? Like for the most swirls in the event/day, no matter how small they are. To give another group of people also a chance to win something?
I agree, I would also like to see a larger variety of BPS offered in future crafting events maybe some UL Bp's at max QR for some L amps, guns etc. maybe 1 or 2 of each as to not water down the market. or maybe QR100 Golden Key BP. or best yet. a bp L for a UL mining amp, weapon amp, weapon. its a gamble ofc but the winner has the choice to try to craft or sell it
Yet an other slotmachine event... Spend as much PED per sec as you can afford. MM if you are a hunter or this event if you are a crafter. As hunter its good to have the "nice" toys so you don´t loose your ass if you don´t win. Crafters need good BP such as Mining Amps or even better a L-BP for some high TT item such as a rare gun or FAP. Its a typical MA event on Ark... come on A-Team, you can do better!
Glad to see a crafting event finally, but...... surprised at the prizes. With FIVE of each QR100 bps coming onto the market, it will hit hard the faithful ark key crafters who paid big bucks to obtain their key bps. Maybe just 1 of each, not 5 of each. Also, I think new BPs would have made better prizes, maybe dropship BPs, people are waiting eagerly for those. I've never been a fan of HSL events but that's a different issue. Other than that, people should be crafting like crazy, these are daily prizes worth more than 10k.
This should be good for all. More crafting creates demand for hunting and mining loot, which should increase prices on all loot, making miners and hunters more PED. If you dont have any interest in crafting, you dont have to participae, but you can still benefit from the Mat price increase.
To give everyone a chance, what about adding a lottery? Where every global of any size is counting as 1 ticket. And at the end of the event out of all tickets, 1 is drawn for 1 prize (a new BP like was done in the image festival?).
I could offer my ideas on prizes/rules but atm I'm so happy to see something other than a hunting event that I can't think straight.
