Droughtman's Challenge - Dispensers · on 03/20/2020 11:24 11115
Greetings!

You will find [a brigantine ship dispenser], [a fiery shamshir dispenser], [a void quiver dispenser], [a dragon armor dispenser], and [a resurrection robes dispenser] at the Prize Concourse in the Droughtman's Challenge quest area. You can purchase an origami "ticket" from any dispenser for 5 indicia. The ticket's noun is aligned to the grand prize from that dispenser. You can purchase as many tickets as you wish from all dispensers during the course of the event. Each ticket purchased will increase your odds of winning the grand prize for that specific dispenser.

At the end of the Droughtman's Challenge event, starting around 9:00pm EST on 3/29/20 (Prime first, then Platinum, then TF), there will be an individual drawing for each dispenser. One ticket will be drawn from the entire pool of tickets purchased from that dispenser. The individual selected will win the grand prize item for that dispenser. You do not need to be present or even logged in at the drawing to be the grand prize winner.

If you do not win the grand prize from an individual dispenser, then all of your tickets purchased from that dispenser will instead count toward a memory orb prize which will gain 25% drain per ticket you purchased. This singular memory orb prize is created based on all tickets purchased across all dispensers from this event, excluding any dispenser you win the grand prize from.

Examples:
1 ticket = 25%; 1 use at 25% drain
2 tickets = 50%; 1 use at 50% drain
3 tickets = 75%; 1 use at 75% drain
4 tickets = 100%; 1 use at 100% drain
5 tickets = 125%; 1 use at 100% drain and 1 use 25% drain
14 tickets = 350%; 3 uses at 100% drain and 1 use at 50% drain
52 tickets = 1300%; 13 uses at 100% drain
143 tickets = 3575%; 35 uses at 100% drain and 1 use at 75% drain

The memory orb can be activated to immediately drain field experience into ranks. The orb will always try to drain 100% when activated, and it will not be destroyed until the balance is completely used up. There is a 100-minute cooldown between using 100% drain across any combination of memory orbs. The orb will be unaligned at first, and you can TURN it to a specific skill of your choosing before its first use. After you select the skill for the orb it will remain aligned to that skill and cannot be changed again.

The memory orb prize can be retrieved using the CLAIM MEMORYORB command, which will be set up and available within 12 hours of the grand prize drawings. We will post here again when CLAIM MEMORYORB is available after the event.

You can read the ledger on each dispenser throughout the event to see current ticket totals for that dispenser.


The Grand Prizes

a severely curved flame-shrouded shamshir set with a splendid Musparan gold sapphire
NEW weapon template with a rarely approved 'flame-shrouded' illusory appearance. Tier 8 medium edge with an additional Tier2/Grade2 Fire Flare with bonus to magnitude. Flare is 'sunset-orange' color. Unique messaging when you WAVE the shamshir consistent with the overall desert/fire theme.

some resplendent robes composed of generous layers of fluidly draped Imperial weave
Rarely approved general worn, standard backpack-sized container. This item is also an "auto-resurrection" item with 13 current charges and 39 charges maximum. INVOKE will consume a favor and provide a few minutes of auto-resurrection for the person who invoked it. If they die during this time, they will be raised with full field experience and scroll recovery. If the duration passes without death, there is an Arcana-based chance to recover the favor spent. There is an 8-hour cooldown and charges, but the cooldown and charge consumption only apply if the device raises someone. Can recharge with infuser stones.

an elaborate scorpion-shaped quiver bound in void-black shadowleaf
Thigh-worn quiver with reduced weight and increased carry capacity from standard. You can RUB the quiver every 2.3 RL days to generate 20 Void's sting arrows. The Void's sting arrow is Tier 8 ammunition that will instantly break on first strike. Save them up, use them wisely, and if you ever run out it's only a matter of time before you have more!

a leathery sack composed of overlapping icy blue and black scales
Contains a weighted dragon bone robe draped in a tattered stormsilk half cape, some thick dragon bone sleeves set with Imperial sapphire claws, and an enormous dragon bone balaclava set with cabochon Imperial sapphires
NEW Living Armor Flare on all three pieces in addition to rarely approved dragon bone material. Tier 6 bone armor with an additional Tier 3/Grade 1 Living Armor Flare Enchantment which is [a frigid white hiromin dragon]

a tiny toy brigantine
Rarely approved personal sailing vessel! The winner (or should we say Captain) is entitled to a newly constructed BRIGANTINE ship from Barana's Shipyard in Crossing. You may also customize the pilot and ship's name.
