Catch a Tiger The Magic Research Institute has been experimenting with some new summoning scrolls, and, as usual, has caused a bit of a disaster.
As it turns out, the innocent-looking White Tiger Cub summoning scrolls are actually bringing ferocious tigers of all ages to Aden from another dimension!
But these tigers could also carry secrets of another universe and offer scientific advances.
So, in the name of science, you are asked to help subdue the White Tigers long enough to study them.
All of the tigers seem to carry gold coins called Apigas, which carry beneficial powers.
Study the tigers and collect the Apiga; piece of cake, right? Event dates 28 April 2017 9:00 - 15 May 2017 9:00 - main event period, you can get items needed for participation from the special NPC.
15 May 2017 9:00 - 22 May 2017 9:00 - final event period, you can use remaining items and rewards.
Event rules- Speak to the
Employee of Magic Research Institute in any town.
- Pay her 2017 Adena and receive a
White Tiger event pack.
- In your inventory, open the event pack to find summoning scrolls and sedative potions.
- Use a summon scroll to summon a
White Tiger Cub or
White Tiger Matriarch. If you summon a White Tiger Matriarch, it is recommended that you been in a group and that you all use your sedative potions simultaneously.
- Use Sedative Potions or Powerful Sedative Potions on the tiger until it's life bar depletes. (Don't worry, it's not dead, it's just sleeping!)
- Receive
Apiga or
Golden Apiga, and most of the time you can also collect a new summon scroll as loot.
- Continue summoning and sedating tigers for while, and turn in Apigas in bundles of 20 by talking to the Employee in town.
Well now, anyone can tell you that magic is dangerous, but the White Tiger scrolls and potions work properly, most of the time.
The Magic Research Institute assures us that we have nothing to worry about as long as we have basic health insurance, and they encourage us to keep on sedating and studying as many White Tigers as we can each day.
So just watch out for these few strange things that you might encounter while participating:
- There is a possibility that some of the tigers will retaliate a bit. They won't hurt you much, but you might get some stuns and a swollen head. Overall, the tigers seem to be relatively weak.
- Since magic isn't always realiable, there's a chance that your summoning scroll will bring you a few surprises. Hey, was that a pig?! The Institute claims that there are no pigs involved in this experiment, but if one does appear, to just ignore it and it will go away. The Institute is not responsible for any lost scrolls in the event of a pig.
- Scroll testers have reported that when a scroll is activated and it summons a tiger, a strange inter-dimensional message sometimes appeared above the tiger's head! It said "Reward increased 2 times if completed within 10 seconds!" and then a countdown begins! (That was for regular White Tigers Cubs. When it appeared with a White Tiger Matriarch, it said "40 seconds".) The Institute says that its not dangerous: the letters won't fall on you, and the countdown does not detonate anything. But they confirmed that there are indeed extra Apiga rewarded if the tiger is sedated within that countdown time! The extra Apiga reward only happens when this message appears.
- Lastly, there have been occurrences of sedated White Tigers somehow summoning one of their friends before leaving. By friend, we mean a big White Tiger! Just pretend it's a kitten and sedate it like the others.
