Thanks for hte Black Bars/Riddle Me This!

My guild very appreciative of the guild rubies. Thanks much! This is almost enough to wipe out any disappointment I had with the recent patch failure.

Even my alt guild is appreciative of those rubies. I also saw huge increase in Guild runes drops.

By end of the day will have 3rd bank page and in a week or two mailbox in castle.

Thank you!

Very awesome indeed! Prior to this I had never seen 999 guild runes, other than in AH. Now I was able to get around 1200 runes, and 300 rubies, in about 15 minutes. Feel sorry for those that didn't know about the event -- but only a little :P

People who didn'T know about the event, are either blind, can't read or should visit ROM website loll. I check them out every morning, to see upcoming sales or event.

Some people need to be spoon fed to learn about stuff in the game, forums are a great tool and not only to cry or moan of what they aren't getting.

My two cents

I received this announcement on twiter, but there's some sort of glitch or pple are only getting rubies, because I started the path since Pioneers Colony and when I arrived on DDC bridge I could exchange 1 time on that day but there were no exchanges avaiable for the server, so this means that numbers aren't matching. Someone is skipping stones and runes and getting only rubies. Worst part was 5 PM here (3 PM on server I guess)

Thanks a lot. Guild rubies are the hardest guild resource to get. Hopefully we will get more guild rubies in the future

Glad you liked it :) Although I was told the riddles were too easy (I did that on purpose I swear!) and yes the contingent of the last NPC was lower than the others (intentionally) but maybe we do this again some time with different values :)

Personally, doesn't matter to me how hard or easy the riddles are. If there are guild rubies at the end, I'm all for it.

BTW, is there any way we can sneak more guild materials into the festival events? The guild packages, where it was possible to get a couple hundred guild rubies per package if you were lucky were awesome. The elemental stones, which gave a little bit of every resource, were also cool, though they were severely lacking in Guild Ruby contribution. If EVERY festival had some kind of guild progression element to it, I think people would be a lot more excited about the festivals.

I love this event, Guild rubies play a big part in upgraded Guild castles and take years to upgrade without events like this.

Thanks for the event and i hope to see it more often.

Those packages normally start appearing at the December event and appear in them regularly until the March/April event if i remember correctly. So we're almost there. :P

The Mr. Pumpkin event was actually the best for rubies. Across a handful of alts I could get 1-2k rubies per set of pulls, and if I remember correctly I could get enough items for about one and a half pulls a day per character.

That would have been me.

I'll write you a set of 5 for some locations for a future event - they'll be fiendishly hard though...

Thanks, thoroughly enjoyed this event. I agree on the suggestion to make guild resource packages with rubies a regular thing with festivals. That would give me more incentive to do them besides trying to get a zodiac pet. :)

Thanks a lot. Guild rubies are the hardest guild resource to get. Hopefully we will get more guild rubies in the future


You need to get your guild mates to start running the guild daily quests. I get 5 rubies per day from those quests.

I bullied and ran through as many people from my guild as I could during this event, we all thank you as well! It's very different (and nice) to be able to post something positive here...as it takes a looooong time to pile up rubies from the 10 rubies per day guild quests.

Ten is insane low. They realized that guild runes are too hard to farm and now they drop in multiple of 5s - where previously I would get 2 or 3, I get 10 or 15 now. Well, rubies are much worse and they need to do the same.

Make the reward not a guild ruby but one of those multi-ruby item shop rubies, I say. Heck, make it random, so you get a chance to get 100 ruby stone instead of 25 ruby. We all know RW loves to give out random rewards. :p

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.
