Patch Notes 07/04/2023

Post#1 » Fri Apr 07, 2023 12:21 pm

Highlights

Eastern Wyvern Hunt

Image

Every year after spring settles in, Eastern Wyverns flock to the west for their breeding season, leaving a foul stench across the Old World. Greenskins scour the lands for 'da bestest wyvern for da big boss', while their enemies seek to cull the wyvern population. Wyvern wings will blot out the sun unless the brave venture out into the wilderness.

The Old World and Ulthuan reek with the stench of Eastern Wyvern eggs, a smell that seems to rile up the greenskins. War may be everywhere, but sometimes you just need to take out your basket and go egg collecting. Who knows what those pesky wyverns have been eating and laying in their eggs.

This live event will run from April 7th to April 17th, Altdorf noon time. Look man, it's an invasive species. Just because they largely coincide with when patching is done to "turn them on" or whatever doesn't mean you should take your time for granted. Everything might just end this week for all we know. Make the best of your time, crack some eggs, get out there and explore the world while it's still here.

Rewards
Basic: [Crate of Bloody Sunz Dyes][Crate of Butcher's Pass Dyes][Mini Eastern Wyvern Eggs] or [Eastern Wyvern Eggs]
Advanced: [Eastern Wyvern Claw][Eastern Wyvern Claw][Eastern Wyvern Claw] [Eastern Wyvern Claw] [Eastern Wyvern Claw][Eastern Wyvern Claw][Eastern Wyvern Claw]
Elite: [Clipped Wyvern Wings] from 2022 seen here , [Shorn Wyvern Wings] at the top of the gallery here , or [Potion of Acclaim]

Easter Egg Hunt or Live Event Quest: Wyvern Mounts / Eastern Wyvern Disc. This year we have added 5 new color variants of the wyvern. You can preview the Mounts here and Magus Disc here. The Ghastly White Eastern Wyvern is only available from the Live Event Quest "The Great White Wyvern" / "Da Great White Wyvern" in Karaz-a-Karak / Karak Eight Peaks respectively.

All Live Event rewards are only available from the associated heralds: Wurrzag Ud Ura Zahubu in Karak Eight Peaks, or Josef Bugman in Karaz-a-Karak.

We thank our artists for their continued contribution to RoR. Thanks to their efforts we've added a new cloak (yes it is different), new wyvern colors, and a new magus disc.

Wyvern Egg Hunt
Those wretched wyverns have laid over 6,200 eggs across the Old World and Ulthuan. Worst of all, somehow those eggs found their way into Karaz-a-Karak and Karak Eight Peaks! That's what you get when you let a slayer decide what's for breakfast.

Tier 1 maps, along with Karaz-a-Karak and Karak Eight Peaks, have Mini Eastern Wyvern Eggs, which contain smaller quantities of rewards and items aimed at lower-level / newer players. Tier 2+ maps (including the side zones of Death Peak, Cinderfall, West Praag, and the Isle of the Dead) have Wyvern Eggs. Wyvern Eggs contain larger quantities of potions and dyes, and a few rare items for you to discover. However, Wyvern Eggs also have a chance to summon a feisty Eastern Wyvern Matriarch, so be careful when egg-hunting!

This year we've moved the Live-Event-Associated mounts, the pesky wyverns, to be exclusive to the Wyvern Eggs. When looting eggs, you have a rare chance to find a special Specked Egg of a colored variety. These eggs can be traded between players, or if you hate wyverns they can be crushed under your foot. Eggs are traded for mounts at the Live Event merchant near the Heralds.

Live Event Shoppe & New Dyes
This Eastern Wyvern Hunt we've introduce 26 new dyes, including two new spec dyes themed around our Greenskin friends. The primary way to find new live event dyes is in the Wyvern Eggs, however some players may find that luck is not on their side and wish to buy dyes from a vendor. During the Eastern Wyvern Hunt, enemy players will drop a Green 'trash' item that players can use to buy dyes from the live event merchant (check your auto-rolls!) Order players will drop 'Teef' for Destruction players; Destruction players will drop 'Fangs' for Order players. Teef and Fangs are tradeable between players.

During the Eastern Wyvern Hunt, players can visit the live-event vendor to trade any Specked Eggs for a colorful wyvern mount, or Teef/Fangs for dyes. Destruction players can find Wrangla Rugrit Onetoof in Da Great Green room in the north of Karak Eight Peaks. Order players can find Ranger Doreksson in the Tavern District of Karaz-a-Karak.

Dye previews are available here towards the bottom, but please be aware that the colors may apply differently on different base armor colors. We recommend to use an addon such as Pocket Palette to see how this dye will look on your armor, but please note it may take a few days before the add-on is updated. These colors were taken from official publications.

Weekend Warfront: Assault on Black Crag

Image

Karak Drazh was once among the mightiest Dwarf strongholds of the World Edge Mountains, but was taken by the Greenskins during the Goblin Wars. Strategically placed at the western end of Death Pass, it guards the approach to Karak Eight Peaks. Today known as Black Crag, it is the most powerful Orc stronghold.

This weekend Assault on Black Crag will be the weekend warfront from 12:00 on Friday to 12:00 on Monday Altdorf time. You get +50% XP and Renown in the Black Crag Keep scenario, and extra rewards from completing the event tasks.

Someone on the RoR Discord confirmed that they already got them from eggs this year, they are a helmet as opposed to the pocket item i got from Twitch Drops a rather long time ago.

So i might up ending trying to hunt for some eggs after all, although i doubt it.

The added Mob that can spawn out of Eggs is a pretty funny idea imho, ngl. Gonna make people abandoning rvr fights to rush to eggs even more hilarious, if this year is anything like the previous :mrgreen:
WWWWWAAAAAGGGGGHHHH!

Be sure to watch that preview video. ;) (Jackpot items are still in, though like previous years, are very rare!)

45 minutes looking for eggs found 2 that worked. While the same 3 or 4 people could be seen in region spamming eggs. Need to work on making the timers random. Thank you for your time on this. I will not be searching for any more eggs as it makes Emissary sad. Love you all :)

Wait a few days and then go looking. Its always sparse in the beginning. Once the initial crush of people who HAVE to do this event get their eggs, you'll see a lot more everywhere. Also going hunting during off hours also helps a ton.
