Howdy Hunters!

Really, who would want to celebrate Valentine’s Day when you can pick a fight with a vicious bunny and some Hitchcock-inspired birds? But we’ve heard you, stay tuned. Meanwhile, we’ve got the usual Mission and 3 tiered comps spread over the week and the old-style Campaign. So bundle up and head over to Whiterime Ridge for a nice selection of new creepy critters. We couldn’t ignore the werewolves for this, you know how much they like to play with our hunters, and the Wendigos were so excited that some of them turned white. Yes, you have pale and creepy Wendigos hiding in the snow this time. Enjoy them!

But that’s not all. The Snow Goose spotting bug has been fixed (it used to cap at 4000 max, regardless) and you may find a couple of new things in the store 😉

CAMPAIGN

So how do you collect RimeHeart$?

The more RimeHeart$ you gain, the more in-game prizes you are rewarded. This is how the prize pool looks:

MISSION

This year’s mission is called Spring is Coming

Hear me out. You kill a bunch of Halloween animals, and then Halloween is over, right? So, following that logic, if you kill a bunch of winter animals, maybe winter will be over! Please, Hunter, you have no idea how cold it is over here. We’ll need you to kill at least one of each animal (listed below) and any extras you come across. Winter must go!

The mission will last throughout the duration of the event.

Completing it will earn the hunter the following rewards:

COMPETITIONS

Qualifying in a competition awards 100 RimeHeart$ for each comp. You don’t need to place, just have an entry. 

Prizes for the competitions look like this:

Each competition comes with 7 tiers based on your Hunter Score:

RULES

What would a game be without rules?

We have one simple rule for our events: No exploitation of existing game mechanics to gain an advantage. All winners’ hunts will be checked by EW staff prior to prizes being rewarded, and the decision will be final.

In case of exploits usage, EW has a right to disqualify the player from this event.

SALES

And what would an Event be without sales? We’re not sure, but we do know that we’d get nasty messages if we skipped them, so we’ve made sure to put sales in.

Make sure to check out the Sales section to see the full list!

That’s all folks, any questions, feel free to post them below.

Enjoy all!

Happy Holidays!

It’s freezing cold again for half the world! And baking hot for the other half. We just can’t win at this time of year. If you’ve managed not to turn into a popsicle or a roast, we have good news for you; it’s the Holiday event. We’ve got the usual Mission and 3 tiered comps spread over the event and the Community Campaign. That’s right, a rising tide lifts all ships so team up as a community to slay enough Roe Deer. You’ll see a bar for community prizes on the mission pop-up (use the banner in the launcher or on the website). Harvest at least 15 Reindeer (from any map) to qualify, slaughter more to fill the bar and gain all your prizes. You do not need to play in multi or single-player, it’s up to you how you do your slaying. Gender does not matter, nor does the state. Any Roe Deer harvested in the EHR will count. And how about, as a little gift to support, no one cheats during this event? What do you say? In return, we won’t have to ban anyone 🙂

Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! All hunters with enough Reindeer at the end of December 24th will win Community Prizes!

But first. Thought we’d get some QoL fixes out with the Holiday Event.

MISSION

This year’s mission is called The Real Target

Time to hunt Rudolph! Yes, there are some other animals on the list, but we all know why we’re here. We want Rudolph. Who wouldn’t, with that big, bright target on the end of his nose? We do strongly advise against nose shots, though. For a start, you’ll mess up the most identifying part of your trophy.

The mission will last through the event duration.

Completing it will earn the hunter the following rewards:

COMPETITIONS

You don’t need to compete in these for any special reason, other than a spiffy trophy and some em$. 

Prizes for the competitions look like this:
