I believe there will be another quest, simply because Regina said it would be apparent why they are only this year. Hopefully its not as simple as "the skeletons are now permanently in UW, we're dangerously close to Dhuum breaking free but thats alright, and have fun trying to farm UW with these skeletons. gg."

I'm thinking Wintersday we'll get more quests I asked if this was going to wrap up she said to wait and see I asked if we might be getting the wrap up in the Wintersday event didn't respond back after that.

Dhuums reappearance in Grenths domain....

So why did we turn into Thorn's Agents? Just for the heck of it?

yeah, Grenth has definitely taken a backseat in this Mad King vs. Dhuum episode. Which is cover for providing new one-time content and nerfing uwsc.

I know right. But really if its set to end during xmas then I will throw such a fit, I know I definitely wont be the only one either.

If this finishes in 30min time from this post does that mean the quest will disappear as well or can we still collect reward?
because doesn't it auto update now and no need for them to take things away like before?
Cause im in UW getting as many caped skeels as I can and don't wana go LA only to find reward guy has poofed on me.

The ghoul-apalooza begins on October 23rd and runs until 12:01 AM Pacific time on November 2nd.

The wiki says it ends a minute after midnight on the 2nd. So, if I read that right, you've got a good 24 hours.

Aussie Boy · Nov 01, 2009, 06:51 AM // 06:51

Thanks for the answer and knowing Anet I was just wondering from past events something always seams to go wrong

So think I'll go LA just in case.
Thanks again.

7. new mad king stuff
8. New minipet
9. New quests
10. New hench
11. Removal of heroes etc

MoX was great, but in terms of changes it was smaller than this. Yes they can still put dhumm in, but imagine the QQ if he looked like a giant , recoloured Dryder and could be killed by Shadow form or cryway.

We still have a few more days to wait and see I guess

wait so it isn't the whole monday just 1 minute of it?
that seriously sucks...

Unless i'm wrong ,in which case feel free to correct me , we don't have a few more days of the Halloween event left , from what i understand it ends about 19 hours from when i post this so if there is 1 last quest i'd guess it goes live within the next few hours.If not i have to say im seriously underwhelmed and slightly confused as to what the whole point of it all was

Abedeus · Nov 01, 2009, 12:25 PM // 12:25

I hope they will leave those quests, they could be fun to do once in a while...

Stolen Souls · Nov 01, 2009, 12:54 PM // 12:54

If quest #4 was the last, then it all feels....unresolved to me. What was the point of rounding up the reapers, disguising ourselves, etc? If we have to wait until Wintersday to find out, then that's kind of a letdown to me. But oh well, rest of the event and quest #4 were good anyway.

Dyeane · Nov 01, 2009, 01:04 PM // 13:04

I really enjoyed the questline, but I too sort of expected a bit of a grander finale. Not that it's too late, but the odds aren't lookin too hot right now.

upier · Nov 01, 2009, 03:34 PM // 15:34

Gosh, I hope that there will be no additional quest!
I didn't do the quests because the quests didn't seem fun enough and the reward wasn't enough of initiative to do something that I don't want to. So I hope that this is it. I'd HATE to see a nice reward pop up and then I'd need to do it just to get the reward.

So you hope that there isn't a proper finale to a questchain clearly lacking one because you're lazy?

Good god, the people in this forum.

Well...he sorta has a point with the whole "...reward wasn't enough of [an] initiative..." part. This is of course assuming nothing comes today, the last day of the event, and it's put off to sometime later on. This was billed as a go go go this year only quest chain but if it continues outside the event I honestly don't understand why.

I think someone didnt rad upon the new skills that were put in from cdode into wiki that koing put up...

what i could imagine is a VERY high hex group beating him. This would have to be very heavy anti-casting as well as maybe 1 anti melee. Remember he has scythe attacks. The rest have very high energy or very short recast spells as well as summons. Cryway could work but would require possible 2 monks and anti mellee(bsurge ele?)

Are you really thinking up strategies for a boss that might possibly be put in?

Shanaeri Rynale · Nov 01, 2009, 04:38 PM // 16:38

I dont beleive everything I see posted in the the .dat file. Remember the Xunlai auction house stuff that was in the dat file and never saw the light of day (yet).

I think Regina said at the time, is that the .dat file contains vestigal remains of some code, items etc etc and is'nt a 100% reliable source of info.

If you also read back, I did'nt state that Dhumm would'nt come, but that he could well be lined up for wintersday. His skills in the .dat file may be included, but the rest of the code may not.. yet..

Verene · Nov 01, 2009, 04:40 PM // 16:40

I do hope there is a final quest, that'd be awesome.

Meanwhile, I absolutely love quest 4. Was just doing it (quick ToT bags ftw), and the first two Aatxes I killed dropped ecto. Sweet.

optymind · Nov 01, 2009, 04:49 PM // 16:49

Wintersday is a time of cheer.... I guess that is the perfect time for Dhuum, The Ender of All to come.
