Major Mistake-The problem with the Goblin Event: You need to track and count kills on the website and in-game

This MAJOR metric is missing from the event that could have made it totally epic with a few additions.

The tracking is already built… under feats of strength

Epic for what? A mere goblin kill counter?
:person_facepalming:

I’m missing something. Why do I need to track kills? I mean, if I need to know exactly, I can go to Kyovashad & click the gobbo pillar, but I can do that once a day or so. What’s the big issue?

This is not how you design a successful event. You design a successful event by making it last more than 1 hour and having fun rewards with cosmetics. Here is the blueprint to how this should have worked:

  1. Blue Gobs that are frozen still work
  2. The reward track has cosmetics to go for and a goblin pet.
  3. The players can collectively build a Goblin Boss meter and fight a huge treasure gob that spawns other gobs in Kyvoshad. This happens a few times a day.
  4. Gilded gobs drop 1 platinum. This would really get player count up.
  5. Rare Chance for elite goblins that are bigger and drop a bit of everything.
  6. Goblins can also rarely drop glyph experience.
  7. Ultra ultra ultra rare chance for the mythic dropping goblin to be flashing and drop an alternate art cosmetic version of a mythic instead of a spark. These are so rare they would be fine ways to show off your dedication to hunting gobs.

Perhaps you add a goblin vendor and earn reputation with them and can then spend it like an alternate obal system just for the 1 or 2 weeks.

IF you really want to start taking chances and making something amazing, then players can choose to play a goblin as a hero and escapes level their goblin which makes gobs they kill give a bit more and gives them new skills to try and escape more.

Always creative ideas. Sounds like an event I’d spend a lot of time on. Unfortunately it would also require work… and lately I get the impression they are way too big to be effective. More worried about smoothie deliveries than the players.
