I'd rather have this one but thanks for the info, Regina. I can now look forward to my root canal knowing I really didn't miss much this weekend...

For those who can't wait until tomorrow, here is what will be happening on the weekend of May 2:

Double Faction in Hero Battles

During this event, players will receive double Balthazar faction in all Hero Battles.
  • Players will receive 40 Balthazar faction per point as opposed to the normal 20 faction per point in Hero Battles.
  • Players will receive 200 Balthazar faction for winning a Hero Battle as opposed to the normal 100 Balthazar faction for winning a Hero Battle.

Double Victory Points

During this time, players will receive double Victory Points while participating in Hero Battles. A player would normally receive one Victory Point for each win in rated battles, so they will now receive two points per rated match win for the duration of the weekend.
Thanks for the heads up Regina, well now we know what it is, no double ecto weekend then
