You recall correctly, Aamer. With the Free the Dryads event we were told in various ways (usually existing NPC's) to seek out new NPC's and solve their riddles for more clues to advance the event. So, to me at least, it was pure joy to log in and scour the Land for NPC's that I'd never seen before and speak to them. Indeed, that event got me more motivated to roam all of vast Istaria far more than Darkstaff ever did.Originally Posted by Aamer Khan
But with this "event," well . . . dozens of folks on every shard have checked and rechecked every dialog of the event NPC searching for hidden meanings, clues and puzzles. We've scouted and rescouted every possibly related venue in Istaria searching for new NPC's, new structures. And no joy at all.
It seems more and more conclusively that we must simply slay Daknor over and over and over and over until some lucky player or two fetches the next hide (or two, or three, or . . .) to advance this event.
It's simply Camp-and-Whack-a-Daknor I fear . . . .
