Runes of Magic US / AU

someone told me one of the spring event quests has a chance of winning a permanent rabbit mount...is this true? and if it is true, which quest do you do to get it?

just and added note.. if you crash at all after you accept any of the events you are pretty much SOL! i had taken 2 wabbits to their homes and was on my way to claim my prize when i crashed getting back around dalanis.. well went to talk to the lady and she said i had gotten them lost, didnt even get the failure items. Got nothing at all also lost out on the one u click the 3 hiding wabbits and then just go back and talk to the girl that give you the detection thingy.. had it done but since i crashed i didnt get a single thing from her either.

The frog event with the fairies - has anybody else had a problem reaching one of the fairies over the water? I tried from every angle and kept getting the "out of range" message. Am I doing something wrong or is there a trick to this?

Thanks!

I crashed with her on the first day, and I couldn't complete it until after today's maint. (yes, edit I didn't realize what day it was. lol) Even using a repeat ticket wouldn't unlock the quest again.

[highlight]Runes of Magic's - 2nd Anniversary Event[/highlight]
▄
└▌

2011 2nd Anniversary Event Dates:
- April 20th to [Month] [Day] (~?? days of playable time)


In the continued celebration of Runes of Magic’s 2nd Anniversary, we have a special anniversary event. When you first log in with a character of level ten (10??) or higher, you’ll be given the Frog Mania Buff and one (1) Frog Celebration Certificate.

Can't be lvl 10, I wish it was, I have a lvl 11 character that won't drop me a Frog Celebration Certificate when I log on, the next lowest lvl alt I have is lvl 20, so in order to begin to obtain a Cert is somewhere between lvl 12-20.

Quoted from "toomanynames;411552"

Not sure if there are any past 100 - I got to about 130 and timer ran out....

Handy Adventure’s Tool Package [SS] (Chance of one of the following)
1 x Backpack Package (7 Days)
1 x Backpack Package (30 Days)

Anyone know what exactly these items are? Just curious, never gotten one myself lol, does it open like all the Backpack pages beyond III?? Or is it just one random page or what? O_o

They're the exact same thing as you find in the cash shop, to wit, it will open up a specific page of your bank or backpack for a given period of time. Items still left in said space once the rental expires are not lost, but merely locked out; access is blocked until you use another space ticket.

IDK if there's dif types of Castor's Packages & Rainbow Egg Packages or not coz my Castor's Package & Rainbow Egg Package had no mention of Magical Wine & Wisdom Cores & Egg of Bad Intentions & thankfully NO chance of Colorful Fireworks lolol:
My Castor's Package had chance of one of:
"Transformation Potion Box - Wabbit (what I got from this was Transformation Potion Bag - Female Noble Wabbit containing 1x Transformation Potion - Female Noble Wabbit (15 mins))
Noble Wabbit Costume Package
Wabbit - Pet Box (7 Days)
Wabbit - Pet Box (30 Days)
Wabbit - Pet Box (Permanent)
Rabbit Cabinet
Blue-Eyed Speckled Rabbit Transformation Potion
or Guild Resources" <--Guess the Wisdom Cores go under this

My Rainbow Egg package had a chance of one of:
"Transformation Potion Box - Rainbow Egg
Rainbow Egg Costume Package
100 Points of House Energy
500 Points of House Energy
1000 Points of House Energy
Exquisite Rainbow Egg Furniture Package
or Guild Resources"

I've gotten 5x Nightmare Essence (500 Guild Runes) for a turn in for Rainbow Egg Package. The transformation potions from Castor's & Rainbow Egg Packages vary between 15 mins-2 hrs-24 hrs. The Rainbow Egg Package is mislabeled for House Energy: 1 of my Rainbow Egg Packages gave me 3x100 House Energy, unless someone has gotten only 1x 100 House Energy Points from Rainbow Egg Package, think they made the minimum House Energy Points to be at least 300 coz 100 is apparently useless. (https://forum.runesofmagic.com/showthread.php?t=352294) I've never used House Energy before so idk how it all works lol.

Some of the "Wabbit - Pet Box (Permanent)" could give: Moonspirit Wabbit - Pet Egg, Spotted Wabbit - Pet Egg or Wabbit - Pet Egg.

Some of the "Exquisite Rainbow Egg Furniture Package" could give: Fashionable Rainbow Egg Vase Decoration, Green Rainbow Egg Basket,Elegant Rainbow Egg, Bamboo Decoration,Nest Rainbow Egg Decoration, Rattan-weaved Rainbow Egg Decoration, Romantic Rainbow Egg Pot Decoration, Silver-Handle Rainbow Egg Basket, Simple Rainbow Egg Plate Decoration or Simple Rainbow Egg Rattan-Basket... not worth it, each of these only offer 5 xp or tp from what I've seen.

Activity: Frog Transformation
Activity NPC: Standler Luya

7 Fairies
3 x Transformation Potion - "Random" one (1) hour duration
1 x Frog Celebration Certificate

Transformation Potion - "Random" one (1) hour duration (Reported)
- Anteater
- Demon Vine
- Frog
- Fungus
- Giant Guardian
- Goblin
- Ice Witch
- Shaggy Bear

I got Transformation Potion - Cute Fungus, no joke... different than the Transformation Potion - Fungus, since I got both types of Potions lol.

To get 7 fairies easily, I figured to just keep talking to Standler & accept the quest only when you get an order that involves Yellow Fairy being the first fairy coz its the easiest one since it spawns right next Standler & Purple being the last fairy, coz that one spawns over the water & takes like crazy Mario skills to get rofl.

Anyways what exactly is the name is the name of the "bunny ears" costume head piece that ppl r talking about lol.

so it only opens one random page of the backpack? the "package" name of it sounds like it opens all the pages from III - VI, or at least more than one page.

This quest have a title
Frog Catcher:
Successfully catch 10 naughty frogs within 5 minutes.

Idk if u get more with more frogs i gonna try next time =)

I know it is possible to get 10 frogs in 5 minutes. However the best I have gotten is 8 frogs in 4 minutes. My problem is the high fail rate of catching the frog. I can be facing it and close to it, yet fail 4 times in a row. It does not give enough time to try a 5th time and you lose the frog as well as about 45 seconds. This happened today. Was goign for number 9 and failed 2 frogs in a row.

I gave up on the deedee wabbit title. It was too irritating just to get the quest done.

Change Log:

v 0.3.2 - Comment: As of 05-11-2011 the Frog Mania buff seems to have been disabled, but the Event Hosts are still in game. This reminded me to add a hint about how to manage expiring tickets. I'll add that later, kind of late now.

Not tooo late YET lol, even tho the Frog Mania buff ended, you can still get 3 Frog Celebration Certificates if you do the 3 quests each day = Quest: Power of the Frog! & Activity: Frog Transformation & Activity: A Magical Method of Disaster Aversion. If you want to extend the expiration date of the certificates, throw them in your storage chest in your house, or put it in your bank, then when you get your new certificates with the 15 days expiration date in your backpack, drop your older certificates (from your storage chest or bank) with the earlier expiration date on top of your new certificates...and it'd take on that new certificate's expiration date lol.

- Cute Fungus
- Frog
- Fungus
- Giant Guardian
- Goblin
- Ice Witch
- Shaggy Bear

I also got a Transformation Potion - Ent lol. For those of you that still have trouble & want to get 3 potions, the easiest to access Fairies are Yellow (near the NPC) & Blue (side of Green's hill). Red (on top of it's own hill) & Green (on top of the hill that Blue is on the side of) are on top of 2 different hills, Green is faster to access if you have Blue in your visiting sequence next to each other. Purple is way out on it's own over the h20, so preferably you don't want that in the visiting sequence that Standler tells you, or you want that near Red since that's the only Fairy closest to it. Or you can be totally lazy & just keep talking to Standler until you get a super easy visiting sequence like: blue blue blue red yellow purple red... easy sequences leave you over 30 seconds remaining if you jump & miss a few times, about a minute remaining if you don't miss at all & reach the Fairy every time you jump.

The frogs, frog titles, and frog certificates are part of the 2nd Anniversary Event. Does the anniversary event typically coincide with the spring rain festival event? If so, I'll add a section for it too.

Guess we now know that the Birthday events don't coincide w/Spring Rain Festival. It's going on way earlier than last year this year.

Bumping for RoM Birthday 2012... only the last half of the 1st post is relevant. 1st half of the original post is for a Festival occurring two festivals from now - Masked Ball Festival is supposed to be after Flower Festival - then this Spring Rain Festival.

4 new events: Sea of Frogs, Flogg's Fortune Cookie, Candara Frog Contest & Buzzkill

I'll add what I wrote up for my guild for those last 4.

[I][I][I]Sea of Frogs
- Event type: collect items, defeat monsters
- Start location: Heffner Camp
- Event location: Coast of Opportunities
- Event Target: collect ingredients, transform to a frog, find items and defeat guards

[/I][/I][/I]The npc for this, Misian, is right next to Witch Daila in Heffner from the previous Frog Killer event. You will be given a potion to take when you go over to Hending Harbor, this potion will give you skills to be able to attack Treasure Guardians. Treasure Guardians drop keys that open treasure chests, Keys last for 10 minutes. To kill the guardians you have to look at what buff the guardian has and use your corresponding frog skills.

You are also given another skill that is used to discover treasure that has a 10 second cooldown, use this skill to uncover treasure chests and use the key that you're given to open as many as possible.
[I][I][I]
Rewards:
1x Frog Certificate (Guaranteed)
Exquisite Ribbons

[I]Flogg’s Fortune Cookie
- Event type: find and collect
- Start Location: Varanas Bridge
- Event location: Varanas Bridge
- Event Target: use transformation potion and speak to frogs to obtain items

[/I][/I][/I][/I]Flogg Shuiss is right outside of Varanas near the Bridge, they will give you a transformation potion that lets you talk to the frogs right behind her. She requires 3 tears and 3 hearts, to get the tears you have to use insult as many times as you can on the frogs with the skills you get from the potion, and to get hearts you have to use the flatter skill over and over on the frogs. Once you have those talk to Flogg again and you'll be given a Frog Charm.

When you have the Frog Charm you can use it to talk to 3 npcs, the npcs are located in Lower City East, Lower City West and Logar.

Their Coordinates are:
Nathan Stange: Varanas Lower City East (40.3, 23.7) If you can't find him he's next to the Supplies Merchant on the map.
Annyk Messe: Varanas Lower City West (29.9, 42.2) He should be easy to find
[I][I][I][I]Nonn Saffish: Logar (48.4, 42.9) Right by the NPC named Agnes

[/I][/I][/I][/I]Possible Rewards:
You are given herbs by the merchants which can be transmuted in quantities of 3 with Exquisite Ribbons, these produce Herb Bags. Herb Bags can be Synthesized by placing 3 in the cube with a Ribbon into Herb Baskets. Herb Baskets can be placed by 3 into a cube with a ribbon to make Herb Gift Boxes.
[I][I][I][I]
Trades with the npc:
1 Herb Bag for 1 Scent Removal Potion (Effect Unknown) Description Reads: "Can be used to remove Glamorous and Obnoxious scents.
1 Herb Package for 1 Flame Beast Horn (7 days) (Also Effect Unknown Possibly either a pet or mount)
1 Herb Basket for 1 Red Flame Crystal (Effect Unknown)
1 Herb Gift Box for 1 Flame Beast Horn (30 days) (See above)

You will recieve one "Mystery Package" if you trade an Herb Gift Box, a Flame Beast Horn (30 days) and a Red Flame Crystal.

Estimation based on current knowledge: 8 herbs a day = 8/3 Herb Bags = 8/9 Herb [/I][/I][/I][/I][I][I][I][I]Packages[/I][/I][/I][/I][I][I][I][I] = 8/27 Herb Baskets = 8/81 Herb Gift Boxes

It would take approximately 10 days for 1 herb gift box, 20 for 2, 24 days total for the Mystery Package.

[I]Candara Frog Contest
- Event type: like a battue
- Start Location: Varanas City
- Event location: Varanas City
- Event Target: drive frogs through race course


&#8203;The npc for this event is outside the Eye of Wisdom in Varanas.

The event is continuous and starts 5 minutes after the first person signs up for this event. After the waiting period you represent a frog in the race, you have to stay behind the frog to make it go in a certain direction. During the race you can guide your frog through ? objects, these objects will give you buffs to use on your frog.

Possible Prizes:
1x Frog Certificate (Guaranteed)
3x Exquisite Ribbon

[I]Buzzkill – Help the Cook
- Event type: find, collect and deliver items
- Start Location: Varanas City Entrance
- Event location: Lake of Magic Mist
Event Target: find items and bring them to Convokenz Rushman

[/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][I][I][I][I][I]For this event first you must talk to the cook past the bridge leading into Varanas, he will tell you about a tornado that causes frogs to fall from the sky and such, just agree to his terms and he will give you a buff that lasts 7 days. The tornado is a timed event that happens every now and again(haven't figured the times yet), you gain points for capturing frogs which consists of running over them. You can't click on the frogs, only run over them and catch them before they fall to the earth. You can also steal other player's points though I'm not too sure how that works.

[/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][I][I][I][I][I][I]Possible Rewards:
Medium Phirus Shell Package (Contains 5 phirus shells)
1x Frog Certificate (Guaranteed)
Exquisite Ribbons[/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][/I]

Those possible rewards are just from what I got from when I did it.


EDIT: I was copying directly from the guild portal so it has a bunch of BBCode on there that doesn't seem to work on here, but I don't feel like editing it.
