Question: Halloween

How long will the event last? And will there be more way to earn candy or not? I'd like to be able to get some when I can't find a party during Tera's dead hours or everyone is to busy making raids for BAM rally hours.

And also what exactly is the deal with the ghosts? I get told to shot them and I also get told not to shot them.

  • You can get up to 35 candies per day, if you get the 5000 score (6 candies) and turn in the Gourdo quest (1 candy). When soloing, you should be able to get rank 3 or 4, which would be around 20-25 candies per day. Even if the event ends on the 28th, that should be plenty of time to get candies.

    The small ghosts do debilitate the other monsters, and they also give points, so shoot them as much as you can.

    How much do I need to get rank 3 or 4?
  • If you going to solo, make sure you kill hollowbone (1500 point) and 2 riders (300 point). I dont remember the rank but you can get 4 candy by getting 2000+ point. About ghost, they either reduce endurance or burn the mobs for a few second. You should kill the ghost BUT with 3 people, only do so when the big one appear because killing too much ghost will empty the area.
  • @Amphiptere You just need more than 1500 points (I think, might just be 1000+) for rank 4, which is 3 candies, or 2000+ for rank 3, which is 4 candies. Like MystShadowHeart said, just make sure to kill the big ones (and Gourdo) and, with the score from the smaller monsters added in, you should be fine even with the deductions.

    Also, you cannot go and fight them normally (I tried). Just in case you were wondering.
  • @MystShadowHeart and @KarmaTheAlligator
    Thanks much for answering. :)
    At least now, I won't let my entries go unused
  • Try to put the Halloween shooting into prime time. If you're working shift, keep in mind that we have two prime times, NA and EU. Remember to state your remaining entries.

    The event was very popular in the past and you found enough people participating. Lately somehow people find more fun in sulking over CU:V than getting a 150 candy pet Boo that can be sold for 35k gold. Whatever.

    Check the LFG (shortcut Y) for other people. Standing in front of the teleporter NPC also helps finding players. If you're going in alone, focus on the big bosses. Don't take the first/front cannon (mobs are moving CCW), try one of the other behind. When I was going solo, I barely made over 1000 points which equals into rank 4.

    a 150 candy pet Boo that can be sold for 35k gold.

    In what game?!
  • @SaphirKanzaki
    What do you mean by shifts? I only play NA. If I played both, the amount of RNG would have made me quit this game.

    Is Boo that expensive in your server? Boo has only ever sold for 15k - 17k in my server.
  • @Amphiptere Pretty sure they meant that there are two times when a lot of players log in, depending on NA times and EU times (plenty of EU players on here after all), so that if your playing time correspond to one or the other group, you should be able to find groups.

    As for the price of Boo... On my server it was marked at around 15k, maybe after the event it'll go up.
  • about the ghost ther are actualy 2 types of them! 2 lower ther defences and the 3th gosts sets them all on fire.
    the overall rule to a good team is you kill them asap the first time when Gourdo enters the room (1 cannon can see him comming befor hand they have to warn the other cannons to focus)
    after that he should be down befor he even passes half the room 2.45 i recall?... anywho he will respawn a second time but like you only have like 1to 30 seconds to kill him depending on how fast you killed him the first time ... i think his respawn timer is 2.30 min
    at around 45 second lefft you stop killing the ghosts and let them wonder around the ground a bit with 75% hp when Gourdo re enters the room a second time (check the hallways for head notice) you kill the ghosts burning him and debuffing him for a 15 second kill

    i hope this jibberish explains it a bit

    3 type of ghosts:
    1. fire dot on the mobs
    2. lowers defense for a few second
    3. increase movement speed of all mobs
