Monday, April 22 2013 - 11:56 AM
by piopico


Have you ever had a dream where you are one of the most beloved creatures of Sarnaut as you speed through the land with your golden hair flowing majestically through the wind? Well, today is your lucky day as your wild fantasy will become a reality!…sort of. “Laguna Chatata” – it’s an ancient Sarnaut saying for “There are no worries”. Set your struggles aside for a day as we lose ourselves in a bubbly day of wacky entertainment. Break some salty sweat with an epic crab race of a lifetime!
 
Transform into a beady-eye crab for a crab race that will leave you crawling for more! Speed, endurance, and not being crabby will help you come out as a winner!
 
Rules:
The race will begin on Thursday, April 25 at 1 PM PDT – Avilon Server, League
• The race will begin on Thursday, April 25 at 2 PM PDT – Avilon Server, Empire
• The race will begin on Thursday, April 25 at 3 PM PDT – Yul Server, League
• The race will begin on Thursday, April 25 at 4 PM PDT – Yul Server, Empire
 
• Gather near the Demonic Gates (entrance to Gorluxor’s Tower) in Yazes Shard
• Wait for a GM to teleport you past the barrier and transform your character into a crab.
• Once you are in crab form, do not click/remove the crab transformation icon on your buff status, or you will not be able to participate in the race.
• You will be instructed to line up behind the starting line (wall of cows) until the GM tells you when to start the race.
• You will run counter-clockwise until you reach and pass the finish line (wall of cows).
 

 

The first 10 players that run the course and reach the finish line will win 20 Special Gold Coins!
 
Shrinking down to the size of a crab (unless you’re a Gibberling) will make this race seem like a marathon so prepare yourself for the big race coming Thursday, April 25!

Set Sail with up to 30% OFF Astral Items and Catalysts!

Monday, April 22 2013 - 6:50 AM
by piopico


 

Ahoy Astral Pirates!
 
Spring is the best season to set sail in the Astral and explore the new allods brought by Lords of Destiny! Every sea, pardon, Astralwolf can hear the irresistible call to adventure!
 
Summon your best Helmsman, your best cannoneers and (gently) grab your beloved Goblin repairmen and meet them in the Astral port of your capital to start the journey!
 
What? You need to wait for your ship to be complete and you’re tired of slacking in the Bort Quarter? Or, maybe, you are already in the Astral, without enough emanations to find your way to the mysteries of Turtle Allod?
 
Whether you are an experienced captain a overheated reactor in the middle of a battle with Octhulu or a rookie sailor waiting for her ship to be completed to start the journey, we have the perfect items for you!
 

Set sail with 30% OFF Astral Items and Catalysts from Tuesday, the 23rd of April, to the 25th of April!
 


Set sail and start plundering the remote allods, just like Elf Sparrow!


When you have built your ship you were a young sailor, just graduated from the Gibberling Navy Academy. You were standing at the port eager to set sail, when they have asked you to name your ship. You hadn’t really thought about a name, you were so concerned about reactors and visor, and then you were so eager to set sail that… well you haven’t given the name it deserves to your mighty vessel!
 
Everything has changed now, you’re a veteran and you have already attempted to defeat Tep in his creepy Pyramid. It’s time to rename your ship and, why not, make it more comfortable with the Coupon Book!

It’s the right time to do it with 30% off Astral items and Catalysts!
Coupon Book: gives you a coupon that can be turned to customize the appearance of one of the following ship components: Hull, Sails, Figurehead, Sail Emblem, as well as decorations inside your ship. Talk to the Glowy Family in the League Hangar or to Nomarkh Hanotep in the Empire Hangar and select the “Customize ship” option to change your ship’s appearance.
Mechanic’s Rune: decreases the time needed to repair your ship and can be used only while a ship is summoned in the Astral hangar or it’s being repaired. Mechanic’s Runes do not complete repairs beyond what has already been paid for at the Hangar Overseer.
Bottle of Astral Coolant: reduces heat level of Astral ship’s reactor by 25% of its maximum load, allowing for more frequent use of heat-generating abilities. If several bottles are used within a minute, effectiveness of each subsequent application is decreased by 33%.
Builder’s Rune – 1 Day: can be used to complete a quest that will reduce the time needed to construct an Astral ship. It can only be used while an Astral ship is being built in the Astral hangar.
Astral Emanations – 50 units: can be used to replenish the supply of your ship’s
Astral Emanations without having to kill Astral demons.
Astral Replicator: doubles the amount of experience, loot and prestige when in the astral.
When activated consumes twice as many Astral Keys and Teleport Charges.
Ship Naming License: allows you to rename your Astral ship. Can be traded or auctioned unless obtained through Premium Crystals.
Astral Transporter: summons a character on board. Character incoming to a party can use this
item to make group members teleport him on to the ship. Once the new
character uses this item, Astral Teleport effect appears on it. In
order to summon the new character on the ship, the following
requirements MUST be fulfilled:

- At least four characters must be already on the ship;
- Ship must be in the Astral and not landing (impossible to teleport a character on to an allod);
- Four characters on the ship should go on the teleport platform of the ship;
- Four characters on the ship should use the Astral Transporter context action at the same time to summon the character;
- New member can only be teleported if he is on the teleport platform of the astral hangar;
- No one else in the party should have the Astral Transporter effect on their character.

The item is consumed after use and can be traded or auctioned unless obtained through Premium Crystals.

Concentrated Catalyst: increases the effectiveness of Amalgam refinement by 400%.
Strong Catalyst: increases the effectiveness of Amalgam refinement by 100%.

 
Your helmsman was late and you have to leave without him, and now you really regret not having his Arisen skills onboard. You don’t need to go back to Nezebgrad, if you have an Astral Teleport with you! Well, that doesn’t mean the captain can’t tell him off!
 

 
Whether you need to refine more Amalgam, get more XP, loot and prestige during your Astral adventures or cool off your reactor during a battle, get advantage of the best offer dedicated to our mighty Pirates!
 

All the Astral tab and the Catalysts will be on sale from Tuesday, the 23rd of April, to the 25th of April:
don’t miss this 30% discount, the Astral Demons are waiting for you!

[Event] Wanted! Master’s Guardians

Sunday, April 21 2013 - 5:19 AM
by piopico

allods online guardian master mmo
 

From the first days of Lords of Destiny, Nihaz has been bored. The adventurers ran to Tep’s Pyramid, eager to fight a new evil spirit, and those who dare to come back to his Dead City for an adrenaline rush are rare indeed. And to be honest, his minions (or favorite victims) are becoming tiresome with their threats of revenge… Nihaz is really, really bored and he doesn’t like it. At all!

 

allods online twitter event guardian

 

So, in order to rid himself of this feeling he thought he would play a trick on his servants, the Master’s Guardians! To determine their cunning and ability to act in a new environment, he sent them accross the allods to see who would be the one to come home first. But so far, no one has showed up in the Isle of the Revelation! Regardless of whether they are completely lost, or simply need some space from their Master, Nihaz needs YOU! It will be your task to find the servants every day so that Nihaz can put them back where they belong!


 

From Monday, April, 22th until Friday, April, 26th find the Master’s Guardians across the allods!

 

allods online guardian nihaz event twitter

 

How can you find them?

 

- Every day, we will announce on our Official Twitter Page that we have hidden the Guardian. Don’t worry, we will give you a clue to his location so you know where to look! Be sure to be thourough in your search!

- When you find the Guardian, take a screenshot of him next to your avatar (so we know it’s you!) and tweet it to our page.

 

 

What are the rules?

 

- Follow our Allods Online Twitter account.

- Keep an eye on our Twitter page, as the announcement can happen anytime!

- Once you have an idea of where the Guardian is, run to the zone, and take a screenshot of your character with him!

- Send the screenshot from your Twitter account (remember you have an in-built app allowing you to do so from the game!). Don’t forget to include your character’s name, its server and #allods, so we can find it in the feed!

For example: “Piopico, League has found the Guardian! Avilon #Allods (with the screenshot attached)”

- Participants not sending the screenshots or the hashtag #allods won’t be counted, so make sure you include them.

- One win is allowed per account for the duration of the event! So no reincs please!

- The first 5 to tweet from each faction will win the prizes!

 

 

What is Nihaz offering you?

 

Although evil, our divinity is a man of his word! Nihaz will offer 500 Premium Crystals and a Gypsy Outfit to the adventurers who manage to find his minions!

We call upon the guidance of our patrons to aid us in battle – heal, resist, boost, and restore! These gifts are bestowed upon us during our adventures to brave countless dungeons, outlast dangerous skirmishes, and push us further during Astral ventures.
 
But sometimes it’s that extra edge which helps turn the tide of battle beyond our armor’s sturdiness and our spells’ effects. It’s that inner calling from within ourselves where we once again, call to our Patron for the added strength to conquer all!

[Event] Doublin’ PioPico!

Monday, April 15 2013 - 2:18 PM
by piopico


 
Now that I’m getting more settled in my new home (rainy land of Ireland), it’s time for a fun event that’ll show you some of the local sights while letting you have some exploration! For this event, you will need a camera (or phone with camera), two legs, and a good sense of direction with your IRL (in real life) surroundings.
 
I thought it would be fun to show some of the local sights around the city while making a copycat event out of it. With that said, I will show 5 pictures of myself at specific locations around Dublin. You must find close locations around where you live IRL and take a picture of yourself at the same type of location for all/any of the 5 pictures.
 
Of all the copycat entries, I will choose my favorite picture from each of the 5 types of photos that I have shown, and award the owner of the picture with 1,500 Premium Crystals!
 
This means you don’t have to copy each of the 5 pictures since it’s understandable that some of you may have not easy access to the same IRL settings, but it will increase your chances of winning since you have more entries that could be the winning photo of that photo type.
 
Rules:
 
1. Photos #1 – #5 will be posted everyday from Monday – Friday on Allods Online Twitter
 
• Photo #1 – Monday April 15
• Photo #2 – Tuesday April 16
• Photo #3 – Wednesday April 17
• Photo #4 – Thursday April 18
• Photo #5 – Friday April 19
 
2. Once you see the picture tweeted, you must find a nearby location in real life that is similar to the setting shown in the photo. With a camera (it’ll help to have someone take the picture of you), have your picture taken that mimics the setting. IMPORTANT – Make sure you hold up your hand and give a “thumbs up” so we know it’s actually you in the picture or else your entry will not count.
 
3. Retweet the daily tweet with a link to your picture, write your character’s name & server, and include the following hash tags – #allods, #Doublinpio
 
4. Each photo of a particular setting will be judged against other photos of that same setting. For example, a picture of you in a park will be judged against other pictures of players in a park. This setup makes it fair for those who are not capable of taking pictures at each of the 5 locations.
 
5. You have throughout Sunday, April 21st to retweet any of your entries. One retweet per each / any of the 5 picture entries. Winners will be announced on Monday, April 22nd.
 
Prizes:
Of all the copycat entries, I will choose my favorite picture from each of the 5 types of photos that I have shown, and award the owner of the picture with 1,500 Premium Crystals!
 

Have fun doublin’ PioPico and enjoy pictures of PioPico around Dublin, Ireland!

 
Remember, you can only participate in this event if you follow our Allods Online Twitter. If you have not joined the Allods Online Twitter yet, now is the time!

Furry up for the Gibberling Festival!

Friday, April 12 2013 - 7:58 AM
by piopico


Warning: The following announcement may be hazardous to an Orc’s mental health

Every so often a special time arrives in Sarnaut, one of fur, fun, more fur, some rage, even more fur and the sight of the occasional drunken Gibberling family asleep in the streets of Novograd. It’s a tradition that dates back to the initial treaty between the Kanians, the Elves and the Gibberlings, one that safeguarded the most sacred of Gibberling customs, the random festival where they get drunk and wear silly outfits! We’re talking of course about the Gibberling Festival!
 

Yes, it’s that time of year where we celebrate the most beloved (kinda) of Sarnautian races with their very own festival! So what’s in store for the streets of Novograd and the fields of Lightwood? Well from Monday, April 15th, until April 24th, we’re going to be making every Gibberlings’ time in Allods Online an extra special one!
 
As we all know from our Sarnautian history classes, the Gibberlings are adventurous little people, their inquisitive nature often landing them in trouble. But this side of them has also led to some of the most important discoveries, namely falling off an allod in a fishing boat and realising that they, and us, could float in the astral! And from this simple accident the Gibberlings have spread across the entire astral, in search of fun, danger and nice shiny things. Well each year the most daring of our furry little friends return to Novograd with a wealth of stories and sackfuls of their most prized treasures.
 
To celebrate their race, they happily offer these to any Gibberling with Special Holiday Coins to use through the Holiday Committee, found in Novograd itself!
 
So whether you’re a Brawler, an Animist, a Trickster or a Seer now is your time to shine in some fancy Gibberling costumes! But that’s far from all, as you will also have the chance to gain a special Bagpipe emote ability that will make you into your very own One Man Band!! Well a Three Gibberling Band I guess….so a regular band I suppose….it’s the Gibberling festival!!
 


So to snag these amazing Gibberling outfits, and to learn the bagpipes, you simply need to be a Gibberling and take your Anniversary Coins to one of the Holiday Committee representatives around Novograd! For you League playing, non-Gibbs out there we have some good news too, the Gibberlings will be able to put all of the outfits up for auction in Auction House! So you too can celebrate the most important, tiny creatures in all of Sarnaut in style!
 

Festive Gibberling Headgear: Can be traded or auctioned

Stylish Gibberling Headgear: Can be traded or auctioned

Festive Gibberling Outfit: Can be traded or auctioned

Stylish Gibberling Outfit: Can be traded or auctioned

Bagpipes: Bound, can only be used by the Gibberlings
 
But what of the Orcs and the rest of the Empire? Well don’t worry, because Yasker has been known to throw a good party or two in his time. Knowing him like you do you can be sure that he will take note of these festivities and plan a gala of perhaps even greater size for his troops! Be sure to keep an eye on upcoming events in Nezebgrad to find out exactly what he has planned!
 
For now though it is the League’s time to celebrate! Elves and Kanians should be aware that any accidents that befall them at this time due to drunken Gibberling behaviour will not be brought before the Novograd City Council, they fear the wrath of a Gibb on too many cocktails just as much as you do!
 
The Gibberling festival runs from Monday, April 15th until April 24th, so don’t miss out on picking up your own set of bagpipes and a stylish outfit to match!
