Yggdrasil Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 ~Come one, come all! The Velheim Team would like to officially introduce you to our largest in-game event yet, King Of The Skill!~THE FIRST KING OF THE SKILL HAS NOW CONCLUDED! Where, and when? This event takes place in-game - you can find the downloads to our varied clients here. It begins on 18/06/2021 at 8PM server time, and concludes at the same time on 03/07/2021. How the event works All users participating must create new accounts with a specified gamemode in order to compete in this event. Similar to RuneScape Leagues, this event will pit you against other players, competing for the highest total level and experience. These accounts will have restricted access to our game; they will not be allowed to interact with accounts that are not participating in the event, meaning you're not allowed any outside help. These accounts have a 5x experience modifier as well as a 0% drop-rate increase. All statistics will be able to be tracked via the use of our official Velheim hiscores. The event will run for a total of two weeks, but extensions may apply in the event of server issues, at which point the event will be extended subject to the amount of downtime that the server experienced Event Rules and Regulations 1 - You must follow all of the Velheim rules found here. 2 - You're not allowed to abuse exploits to get further ahead in the event (for example, bugs that you discover.) Those found breaching this rule will have their account removed from the competition and permanently banned. 3 - You will not be able to interact with other players (Ironman restrictions apply). 4 - Mystery Boxes, Squeal of Fortune and Grand Exchange will be disabled. 5 - After the event concludes, your account will be reverted to regular ironmen. 6 - Account sharing is strictly forbidden. If caught, both perpetrators (or however many abuse this) will be permanently banned from the game. 7 - If players gain the maximum amount of experience possible in all skills - the winners will be determined by their prestige levels (and total final EXP in case of same prestige/total levels). 8 - All store purchases (donations) will be disabled to level the playing field for all players. However, bonds (and game perks) will still be available to obtain via in-game methods. 9 - Donation transfers will not be available for the new gamemode accounts. This also includes perk gifting through the game perks interface as well as gifting bonds! Prizes (The first three winners will receive an exclusive 'King of the Skill' title in-game as well as the exclusive Treborn pet. These rewards will be put on the winners main account of choice.) First Place - $2,000 USD or Velheim Coins Second Place - $1,000 USD or Velheim Coins Third Place - $500 USD or Velheim Coins Achievement Rewards Most Boss Pets - $150 USD or Velheim Coins Most Skilling Pets - $150 USD or Velheim Coins Most Unique Items in Collection Log - $150 USD or Velheim Coins Most Wealth Accumulated - $150 USD or Velheim Coins Edits: The event ends on 3rd of July, 8PM server time (extended due to early server issues) King of the Skill game-mode accounts will be reverted to regular Ironman; from there players will be able to de-iron and choose either Novice or Regular mode if they wish to do so 8 4 Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Revel Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 $2,000 USD? Now all of china knows you're here. Yall can knock a 0 off tho.Also, already seeing issues with "Most Unique Items in Collection Log - $150 USD or Velheim Coins" That'll probably cause arguments, I'd probs just remove that. Nvm, thinking over it again, you guys probably meant most Individual collected items in collectors logs including clues/boss drops/slayers npcs/etc. rather than "the coolest drop".

Yeah I struck-through my comment. I misinterpreted it the first time I'd read it. I'm forwarding this to some sweaty ppl. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exis Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 This sounds fun. However, will these accounts be able to be donated on for coins to buy perks or to get access to donation zones? I know there is no squeal or mystery boxes, but nothing was stated about velheim coins. Just wanted to check if this will be a truly even playing field or if people will be able to get an advantage by buying perks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what I'm positive everything will be very attainable. (Even if its like $5 worth of perks that you may be able to buy, its like getting a $5 lotto ticket for a chance at $2,000 that you can actually influence the outcome of). We'll see what they come up with. They're still fleshing out the greater details. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still debating on that one, most likely all purchases will be disabled though. Will update the thread after me and my collegues get to talk about the nuances and whatnot! 4 1 1 Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobs Own Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 I see a whole lot of video content potential here, awesome event! Best of luck to everyone! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkii Panda Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 As a suggestion regarding this - Worth putting a time limit on it? So you have 48 hours (over the event period) to get as much as possible? Those that have other commitments then sweating out to this event won't even be close to competing for prizes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
