Just popped in for a few skele caps before work and the skeles have been removed. Popups in chamber also are no more, so looks like these were just for the event (for now anyway!!).
Tried 3 times just in case!

My guess? Final quest that is permanent OR Dhuum just gets added in, no quest. Dhuum's skills own UWSC SF teams. Problems not totally fixed but...it'll due.
Totally theoretical at this point.
EDIT: Around noon today PST.

Decorations and NPCs are still there, what's up with that? I'm waiting for the first UWSC team to report in. Maybe something unusual happens in UW at the end...?
Or they just added extra time to hand in the reward one more time...

Well I just loged into GW and the quest giver is still there I took the 4th quest and went UW
But the Skells are gone.
That's stupid if he is still ofering the quest but no way of completing it.

Somewhat annoying though, if you take quest now - and waste 1K or use a scroll to get into the UW...

Yeah like i did and no warning either oh well only wasted a scroll to test it but how many will take the quest and find that out.
Or another possibility of a 5th and final quest for UW.

Well with the Skeletons removed it seems more likely that there is a final quest still upcoming. Otherwise why are these quests exclusive to this year only? Regina said it would be apparant when we do the quests but as of yet its something that could be done each year

Skele's are gone, but I hear there have been some other changes to the UW (monster spawns). So is UWSC nerfed or not? I don't UWSC myself, but as far as I can tell - it's alive and kicking... for now at least.

Yeah, I don't get it. As it stands right now, I don't see why these quests couldn't repeat next year. Either I'm being completely dense (entirely possible :-P), or there's more to come between now and next Halloween. eg. Dhumm breaking free (IIRC, the quests said this was "inevitable")

although, I suppose it is possible they are only removed long enough to let people get rewards for collected skeletons while not allowing them to collect more and will be put back when the steward is removed (hmmmm, maybe I better get me some ectos while the farming is still easy as there were three skeletons on the plains I don't think I'll be able to work around.)

Skellies are no more?
Then why the heck were they there even when no one had the quest ? o.o
Tis' crazy.

I ran my Survivor though the Reapers quest, where it said you will not get death pen if you die. I died several times there and no dp. However, you can lose your title if you die in the last 2 quests. (As far as I can tell). What I did was have another toon run through the last two quests. Then put the mopstoppers in storage where my survivor took them and tuned them in for 10k a shot.
I'm pretty happy with the Halloween quest chain. I finally got the Legendary Survivor title and lots and lots of ToT bags. That was 330k worth of xp.

I very much doubt anything is bugged. Most likely the quests leading up to the Dhuum fight were one time only the Halloween exclusives. I bet the rest will just be permanently added to the Underworld. Kinda like those limited time quests they had leading up to Factions.

Based on all the build-up for these 4 quests, and hints dropped by Regina, I'm inclined to believe either something went wrong with implementing the final quest along the way, or, as was suggested earlier, some new permanent UW quest is going to be implemented. There was no "apparent reason" why the quests won't be available next year, nor was there a resolution to the quest line at all. I'm happy for the quests being implemented at all, but right now this is like dangling a bag of cookies in front of somebody and only giving them one.
Painbringer
So the quest line stated to the fact that soon he will be strong enough to be released. Well we have other holidays coming so maybe it will overlap into the next event ?

Well like everyone here just waiting for an explanation... though the last quest reward dialog might be vague it does hold a small bit of truth....
"Well done! On behalf of my liege, I thank you. Every small victory like this forestalls Dhuum's arrival. The Mad King's offer remains open: capture more minions and claim the bounty yet again."
It forestalls dhumm comming out of the hall of judgement... so it could just be a loose end sorta like how we all felt after proph ended the first time years ago.
Lets just hope it gets resolved in this weeks update or get an answer if there was going to be a 5th quest.

Though I kind of wish the skeletons had stuck around, they were fun times.

Oh I meant that the event might be bugged like it was last year we all know that the Halloween 2008 Redux was just to cover up that they couldn't take it down in the first place so they did that to buy them more time so we got the benefit of more halloween and they got time to find the bug and fix it so they could take it down
|
Redux was because the event ended early and people bitched about it, rightfully so.

EDIT: Hmmm maybe it did
Or maybe it didn't not sure it seems about the normal length when I go back to wiki and look at the start end dates for them however I could still be wrong

The Mad King's Steward has been called away on an urgent mission and will return tomorrow...
I've received a number of questions about whether you will see a conclusion to the Dhuum-released Halloween quest content. Yes you will, but I cannot say when and how...
