New Halloween Quest Info

I believe there will be another quest, simply because Regina said it would be apparent why they are only this year. Hopefully its not as simple as "the skeletons are now permanently in UW, we're dangerously close to Dhuum breaking free but thats alright, and have fun trying to farm UW with these skeletons. gg."

So why did we turn into Thorn's Agents? Just for the heck of it? |

yeah, Grenth has definitely taken a backseat in this Mad King vs. Dhuum episode. Which is cover for providing new one-time content and nerfing uwsc. |

If this finishes in 30min time from this post does that mean the quest will disappear as well or can we still collect reward?
because doesn't it auto update now and no need for them to take things away like before?
Cause im in UW getting as many caped skeels as I can and don't wana go LA only to find reward guy has poofed on me.

The wiki says it ends a minute after midnight on the 2nd. So, if I read that right, you've got a good 24 hours.

Thanks for the answer and knowing Anet I was just wondering from past events something always seams to go wrong 
So think I'll go LA just in case.
Thanks again.

Mox was just a scaled up golem with a couple of special skills. Halloween had
1. A new instance of the uw.
2. New player skills
3. Revised skills on mobs
4. Skellies
5 two new hats
6. new items. E.g mobstoppers
7. new mad king stuff
8. New minipet
9. New quests
10. New hench
11. Removal of heroes etc
MoX was great, but in terms of changes it was smaller than this. Yes they can still put dhumm in, but imagine the QQ if he looked like a giant , recoloured Dryder and could be killed by Shadow form or cryway.
We still have a few more days to wait and see I guess

Unless i'm wrong ,in which case feel free to correct me , we don't have a few more days of the Halloween event left , from what i understand it ends about 19 hours from when i post this so if there is 1 last quest i'd guess it goes live within the next few hours.If not i have to say im seriously underwhelmed and slightly confused as to what the whole point of it all was

Abedeus
I hope they will leave those quests, they could be fun to do once in a while...
Stolen Souls
If quest #4 was the last, then it all feels....unresolved to me. What was the point of rounding up the reapers, disguising ourselves, etc? If we have to wait until Wintersday to find out, then that's kind of a letdown to me. But oh well, rest of the event and quest #4 were good anyway.
Dyeane
I really enjoyed the questline, but I too sort of expected a bit of a grander finale. Not that it's too late, but the odds aren't lookin too hot right now.
upier
Gosh, I hope that there will be no additional quest!
I didn't do the quests because the quests didn't seem fun enough and the reward wasn't enough of initiative to do something that I don't want to. So I hope that this is it. I'd HATE to see a nice reward pop up and then I'd need to do it just to get the reward.

Good god, the people in this forum.

Well...he sorta has a point with the whole "...reward wasn't enough of [an] initiative..." part. This is of course assuming nothing comes today, the last day of the event, and it's put off to sometime later on. This was billed as a go go go this year only quest chain but if it continues outside the event I honestly don't understand why.

I think someone didnt rad upon the new skills that were put in from cdode into wiki that koing put up...

what i could imagine is a VERY high hex group beating him. This would have to be very heavy anti-casting as well as maybe 1 anti melee. Remember he has scythe attacks. The rest have very high energy or very short recast spells as well as summons. Cryway could work but would require possible 2 monks and anti mellee(bsurge ele?)

I dont beleive everything I see posted in the the .dat file. Remember the Xunlai auction house stuff that was in the dat file and never saw the light of day (yet).
I think Regina said at the time, is that the .dat file contains vestigal remains of some code, items etc etc and is'nt a 100% reliable source of info.
If you also read back, I did'nt state that Dhumm would'nt come, but that he could well be lined up for wintersday. His skills in the .dat file may be included, but the rest of the code may not.. yet..

I do hope there is a final quest, that'd be awesome.
Meanwhile, I absolutely love quest 4. Was just doing it (quick ToT bags ftw), and the first two Aatxes I killed dropped ecto. Sweet.

Wintersday is a time of cheer.... I guess that is the perfect time for Dhuum, The Ender of All to come.

So you hope that there isn't a proper finale to a questchain clearly lacking one because you're lazy?

So if they introduce an interesting reward, I'd rather see it available as a reward for something that I'd enjoy.
It is completely selfish.
And?
(Since there are only a few hours to this event and since half the world would miss out on the new quest if it was added now - I guess we won't see anything! Yay!)

I agree, it would be odd to have only 12 hours (if it gets put up at 12 PM PCT like the others) to beat Dhuum if he's such a badass. Perhaps Dhuum, or a tough servant, is the permanent addition and the quest is just some extra tonics or w/e?
So implementation of the quest is when Dhuum or whatever addition is made, but the quest is just icing on the cake and won't matter.

The event ends in like 15 hours, pretty sure most people would have time to get on and complete it.

Australia is midnight-ish.
Austrailans are sleeping already and in a few hours they are off to work/school.
Euros will be off to bed in a few hours and then school/work.
The event is pretty much over outside of the States.

Although it does seem cruel not to at least WARN them that they should stay up for the final quest if there is one.

Well, that sucks. I was looking forward to fighting Dhuum. Here to hoping it'll come out still.
I really hope Regina would come clean this up though :/.

maybe over 13min :P
Mr. Undisclosed
Err...we have an hour and 10 minutes till the usual time the quests come out. And like 14 hours and 10 minutes till the event really ends. Not sure what you were trying to say.
I agree, don't leave us wondering and in the dark.

so..the quest is a leave off just like the mox quest? (For those who dont remember, we never learned who comissioned the golems...) *sigh*
I wonder if theyll ever bother to finish mox....

Just wanted to say I appreciated the new quests and content for the Halloween festival Anet. However I am quite dissapointed there wasent some kind of final quest to wrap things up as it where. Since you lot hinted that this will be the only time these quests are going to be available.
Still it would be nice to hear some confirmation from Anet if there will be a final Halloween quest, anyway it was fun albeit a dissapointing outcome in the end of it.

Ok I'm (as always) confused about daylight saving... when did US have their DST removed? Ours (Europe) ended October 25th 2009...
This whole DST PDT PST GMT UTC is driving me insane!
This is madness!
Nevertheless I wish for a grand finale (hopes for last Quest in 30 Min)

Dzjudz
Yeah the previous quests were all at the time it was in whoever's location half an hour ago. Unless anet changed GW to reflect DST changes in the last day.
Edit: Hold on, the US changed DST one week later than Europe (i.e. last night).

disappointing end......... its 12:06 PST.
Halloween next weekend.... Skeletons continue for a week, and next weekend we kill Dhuum? Or this is it........ an unfinished quest line?
