Double Green Weekend

RSS FEED · #1 10-03-2006, 04:49 PM

This weekend, every boss monster that you slay will be twice as likely to drop a special, or "green," item. The start of this event will be Noon PDT on Friday and the greens will continue to drop at double the normal rate through 11:59 p.m. PDT on Sunday.

In lieu of the previously announced special weekend, we've decided to postpone the "Green Drop Weekend" until next week. This week's big news is the conversion of Heroes' Ascent into a 6v6 map. Yes, one of the most popular events will become a permanent element of the PvP game, along with a lot of exciting map changes, too. This will all go live sometime Friday, so stop on by and check it out. Check back next week for news about the "Green Drop Weekend" (which now promises to be even better)!

Wow, this is a big change to make it permanent. I more or less lost interest in HA because of gimmick builds and the overall immature behavior of many of the players there. Not sure if this will change either in the long run, but I know this format was very popular the last time they tried it.

Ah, but which Friday?

Think this will make it easier or harder to get in a group? Smaller group means less time finding members and more groups, yet each member in the group becomes more important.

Tomorrow, Heroes' Ascent changes, it should help a lot, destroying gimmick builds (at least temporarily) and making it take less then a few hours to make a group. Having less people also means spike groups don't work as well

Next week, I'm hoping for the green double drops

Edit: Remember they also said map changes. I hope they bring back the six teams on the same map, and the Rift Wardens
