Quest NPC: Masked Ball Host

Description: You have one (1) minute to match the Masked Lords and Ladies to their dance partner. Start by talking to one of the Lords or Ladies roaming around. The first one will give you a number and a color of a ribbon. They will only tell you the color of the ribbon once, but they will repeat the number when spoken to again. Then you find their dance partner, who will give you their number. Use the ribbon color matching their partner to get ten (10) points. Repeat for all three couples.

NOTE: I found it easier to wait until the Lords are close together and click on each one memorizing the number associated with each ribbon color. Then I go to each Lady and use the ribbon color associated to their given number. You could start with the Ladies first if you want. Both ways have worked well for me.

I know I've whined about this before, but: is there some reason why we cannot be told a) that a new festival is about to start -- BEFORE it starts, and b) when a festival is going to end (preferably at the same time we are told it is going to begin, but certainly before it ends)? Even 24 hours notice would be nice, surely someone in the company knows when these things are going to start and stop, so why not let the players in on it as well?

So far, about the only way I've found to get some sort of heads-up is to go to the UK homepage, since their festivals usually seem to start a few hours ahead of ours. Otherwise, you just log in after weekly maintain, and then you see if the old event is over and/or a new event has begun.

Oh, and thanks for the guide! :)

Personally, I am not doing the festival anymore. The matching event has been bugged on Osha since the beginning. One of the men and women gives a number like 424 and neither gives a color. I can match the other 3 and give the last color to either man or woman and neither gives me credit. Also, today I noticed that the axe gang is not respawning as much anymore. Only about 1 dozen mobs, no champions, no bosses. I have submitted a bug report.

It does not matter anyway. There are very few useful rewards from the event. There are no titles to go for and I did all the quests at least once. I turned in the vouchers 6 times. I got 4 fireworks and 2 cheap guild materials. Obviously, for all these events, they heavily weight fireworks now. I miss the halloween event when there was a chance of getting Guild Runes, Rubies, and Stones. No guild needs the normal mats. They always have them in excess.

Of course, I saw a couple people botting pumpkinhead event back then. I reported them to GM's directly, problem report, even forums and still they botted for 3 weeks never getting banned. The 2 GM's I talked to directly even responding saying they would check it out, but still nothing. I can only imagine how many nightmare essence ( guild runes) they got.

I wish the flower festival would have returned with the maintenance. Then at least I could have gotten the 2 titles I missed because it ended before I expected.

I do still have hope for future events giving something good. I did enjoy getting a great deal on diamonds this weekend. It made me spend real money for the first time in a year.

I'm on Osha & u can match all the 4 dudes & chicks, at least on Channel 2, idk about the other channels tho.
My reward for 10 medals today was a Swift Raptor Mount in a Bag (30 days), I already got 2 perms so no point, was hoping for bank space or Big Angel's Sigh lol.

And yes the Flower Festival was better, I liked the clothes lol.

I've only gotten Nightmare Essence once doing festivals, think it was during the Snowflake one. It was a stack of 5 of them so it was 500 guild runes total, which was uber nice lol

Unless my game is glitched, I couldn't loot more than 89 Breath of the Spring Goddess. It's lame u gotta go farm out in the middle of nowhere for those Dazzling Pink Four-Leaf Clovers, so fastest way I figured is to just loot the bottles until u can't loot anymore, go get the Eulogy of Spring quest in Varanas, then go to Helen's farm & farm 150 Dazzling Pink Four-Leaf Clovers & then go turn them in 30x after killing something to get ur last Breath of the Spring Goddess ... gosh seems like too much work when all I want is Advanced Aggregator lol.
