The Carnival of Sorrows is back in town. Following up on our recent announcement on our official subreddit, we are going to be repeating our seasonal events from last year but with a special twist!

Note: Since the new Peanuts Tier 1 objective was just added this year, players who completed this event last year will need to do it prior to starting the Tier Two objectives, so be sure to save up 2,500 Carnival Tickets before resetting!

More details can be found on the blog!

The event runs until Oct 11th at Noon PDT!

That is AWESOME!

The only tweak I would do is to have a way to get a GE for "tier 2" crusaders as well....

Just curious, but what was the golden epic last year? (I wasn't playing yet).

There wasn't any, iirc. Golden Epics were introduced later, I believe the first one was an axe for Jim.

@ Azaryah: While Jim had his Golden Epic with chest purchases at the time, we hadn't decided to event Crusader Golden Epics until Hallowe'en and Wendy's Broom.

@ Varie: Glad you're enjoying them! :)

They just need to earn more event Currency if the objectives aren't unlocked yet or they don't meet Idol requirements.

Raymond, I suppose you were one of those that played the original event, so you have tier 2 objectives to complete. But they only unlock after all tier 1 objectives are complete, and the devs introduced a new one of those: Peanuts. You need 2500 tickets to start it, and after you complete it all tier 2 objectives will unlock.

technical question, is it now. from now on, for us people with all the old crusaders, going to be twice as hard to be able to get full gear on the new event crusaders? i/e/ i do not want gear for pete and monkey...

I'm afraid this will be true. While there are obvious disadvantages to this (it's harder to get good gear on new event crusaders), there's also a positive side, getting gear for OLD event crusaders. And some are pretty good, I won't mind being able to gear them up a little better...

Hello,

Just a question, once you have buy "Doing it again" talent, Tier 1 is not anymore available being replaced by Tier 2 objectives and crusaders? Meaning i better finish all T1 objectives and events before thinking about?

Or it allow me to swap between T1 and T2?

Or even better : each T2 become available when corresponding T1 is complete?

Or something else and once more i didnt understand :-)?

As with all tier two talents, they are only available after the tier one in the same box is completed. For the event specifically, while the tier two are visible after completing the corresponding tier one, they are not playable until you have completed all five of the tier ones.

So how do you switch back to tier 1 objectives. I didn't have check on 2 of the tier 1 objectives, started one, clicked the do it again to get that talent and now can't seem to get to tier 1.

I just noticed that the half-blood elf swaps with Khouri... I honestly can't understand why. This will make him the only crusader with THREE alternative event crusaders, while many others still have only one (the Bush Whacker, Sarah, Phoenix, Merci and Nate). Won't it be better to even out things as much as possible? Before introducing the fourth crusader in a slot, maybe it's better to have three crusaders in every slot...

things do not have to OCD be perfectly spaced out, for the longest time there were some with 3 and Nate had nobody under him...
i think it has to do with tags/abilities that hey are similar to

Khouri's slot is the only dedicated general healer and each of them is ratehr different, I for one am quite happy with more alts for this slot and like the different options they give me for different formations. Just a pity halfy is such a sex maniac.

Raymond, is not about OCD, it's about game balance. Since a crusader benefits from EPs from other slots, and his DPS also benefits from epic items for other crusaders in his slot (through Swap Day talent), I think that having crusaders, especially DPSers like Sarah, with only one alternative severely limits their effectiveness.

im just glad i appear to have enough crusaders (the majority of the time) to do any mission that pops up.
