The Year 700 XP Contest starts in a few minutes, so I'm just writing a quick wrap-up of all of the details of how to participate:
* The preview post, containing most of the information is ANNOUNCE #4459.
* When the event starts, you'll be able to join the event with XPEVENT JOIN. You should only do this when you're ready to begin, as your six hour participation window timer will commence as soon as you do.
* Once you're in the event, you can XPEVENT ENTER to enter one of the new winding catacombs areas created specifically for this contest. This command is also how you will re-enter if you die, or have to leave to restock your supplies.
* Only experience gained inside the event areas will count towards your score.
* You may leave the event area at any time with XPEVENT LEAVE, which is a channelled action that requires you to be at near-full health, balance, equilibrium, and not be hindered.
* XPEVENT STATUS will show you how long you have on your participation window.
* At the end of your participation window, you will be removed from the contest area and returned to the room in which you departed from.
* Many of the creatures inside the contest area wander, and it's possible that they may be in the random room that you get teleported into, so be prepared to start fighting as soon as you enter!
* The contest area is completely free PK, you can be attacked by anyone at any time. This does not carry over to outside the area, if your foe escapes back to Sapience, you may not pursue them.
* Dying in the contest area will lock you out from rejoining for a few minutes, if you've been actively attacking other adventurers, this lockout will be longer for each adventurer killed since your last death.
* The event will conclude at the Serenade on Saturday night, that's 7pm Saturday EST, 4pm Saturday PST. Any remaining time in your participation window is forfeit at the end of the event, so plan accordingly!
* Relics and rare minerals are disabled for the duration of this Championship event. Bonuses such as the life-enhancing elixir will still work, but will not modify your score, just the final amount of experience your character receives.
Good luck and have fun! Championship points and credit prizes await the winners at the conclusion!
Penned by My hand on the 18th of Lupar, in the year 700 AF.
