Ruined Keeps - Head Hunting Event

Adventurers, dire times have fallen upon the realms. The once mighty strongholds now lie in ruins, the walls reduced to rubble and all defenders scattered. This loss has emboldened enemies who now swarm the areas, seeking to claim the strategic keeps for themselves. Venture into the perilous battlefield surrounding the shattered keep and strike down your foes. With each enemy you defeat, claim their slain head as proof of your valor and prowess in combat.

  • This event is awesome.
    - The derision of your enemies is the highest possible form of praise.

    - I intend to coarsen. I want stark contrasts drawn. I want polarization. I will not quietly accept clown-world so as not to upset anyone. I am not tolerant of our impending and increasing slavery.
  • i'm not sure it was planned or an oversight that basically a soloer can break ports off all the realm's ports past the middle keep. that is certainly something i don't like about this event. i prefer ruined keep in a place that doesn't affect porting.
    Stor Hurfru Muylasav, wildly swinging arms around. Vicomte Muylock, calling curses on enemies. Lord Muylaetrix, calling upon winter storms. some other chars with names starting with Muyl.
  • I wasn’t the biggest fan to start off with and thought the rewards were “meh” but with bonuses it’s pretty significant. I’m glad it’s around for a while now
