MSM Merry Mayhem 2012 - Reworked

​

Merry Mayhem is one of the largest hunting events on Planet Calypso, and plays out over the Christmas Holiday Season each year. It requires focused dedication and effort, not to mention the best gear and skills for a better chance at winning, but also comes with impressive prizes.

Merry Mayhem was first introduced in 2007, and during its six year history, this event has gone through several changes, with the most reworked structure introduced for 2012. While some of the changes have been received quite well, this annual event continues to inspire discussion and suggestions for making it even better, especially when it comes to making it fair for all participants.

The data that follows highlights the evolution of the Merry Mayhem event, with key points from each year’s offering that makes this event one of the most anticipated annual events in Entropia Universe.

At the end of the 2012 Merry Mayhem details, I added a little story about my own experience with several photos that were taken during my team hunt in Category 4 with a couple of special friends.

Details of the 2012 Merry Mayhem

It’s time once again for Planet Calypso’s annual winter hunting extravaganza - Merry Mayhem! This year’s event features an expanded prize pool with new prizes - including valuable Calypso Land Deeds - new creatures, and updated rules. Running for 23 days over the Christmas Holiday, Merry Mayhem is among the most exciting and popular events in all of Entropia Universe. So grab your best gear and join in the Mayhem!

Event Dates

• Dec 14: Competition opens at 00:00 UTC.
• Jan 06: Competition ends 23:59 UTC.
• Jan 18: Competition winners will be announced.
• Jan 30: The missions can be turned in to Carl Tucker.

Registration

You can register for the event by accepting either one or both Merry Mayhem missions offered by the NPC Carl Tucker, located near the Port Atlantis Marina at the following map coordinates: 61421 x 75105, Eudoria. Registration opens on December 14 and will remain open until the event is finished. Note that there are two separate missions: one mission for the solo event and one mission for the team event.

Do not abandon the Merry Mayhem missions! If you do abandon a Merry Mayhem mission, all event points accumulated up to that time will be lost and will be unable to be replaced.

Categories

The event offers several different competition categories to accommodate players of varying profession levels. Players will be sorted into one of the following four categories upon accepting the Mayhem missions.

• Category 1: Highest Professional Standing 0-24
• Category 2: Highest Professional standing 25-49
• Category 3: Highest Professional standing 50-69
• Category 4: Highest Professional Standing 70 or higher

Important Note

If during the course of the event you gain enough skills to move into the next category, you will no longer be able to enter the team instance arenas using your old keys (solo participants will not be affected). To continue participating or assisting in a team instance in such a case, you will need to chip out enough combat skills to bring your highest profession level below the effective category criteria.

Participation

When you accept the solo Mayhem mission, you will automatically be placed in the appropriate category and you will receive a stack of keys, each of which entitles you to one hour of gameplay in one of the solo Merry Mayhem instances. The portals to the Merry Mayhem instances are located in Twin Peaks, just to the left of the main Service Center. You will receive 30 keys for the solo event and they will be flagged with your particular category.

If you wish to also participate in one of the team categories or assist someone else there, you will need to register for the team Mayhem mission, also available from the NPC Carl Tucker. While the solo keys only allow you to enter the solo instance specified in the key’s name, the team keys allow you to access team instances of a level equal to that which you were assigned, along with all higher levels. Points toward the mission are gained by killing the special Merry Mayhem creatures found inside the instances. The Merry Mayhem prizes will be distributed based on the scoring ranks once the event is completed. Make sure to plan and spend your 30 instance hours wisely!

Important Note

Do not leave an instance once the 60 minute timer has started, or you may risk having problems reentering the instance, and risk losing hunting time in the Merry Mayhem event.

2012 Merry Mayhem Team Hunt with Lars Sebra and Magam

I have never participated in Merry Mayhem, and I’m not participating in the current 2012 event, but with the reworking of the structure of this event with instances, I wanted to at least be able to experience it first-hand to see what it was like, and to also get photos. Lars Sebra from the Calypso Rescue Team (CRT), and Magam (Freelancer), two dear friends, accommodated me in a Cat 4 team hunt, even though I only qualified for Category 2. I guess you can join a team higher than your qualified category, but not lower, so good news for me. The following are photos taken as we navigated this experience.

Descriptions are shown beneath each photo.


Entrance to the MM instances were through labeled televators at Twin Peaks.


After entering the Cat 4 Team instance, the doorway was a surprise purple.


It was cool to find some Christmas decorations.


It was WAY cool to find “Father Lootius” as the instance key distributor.


Even though I entered a Cat 4 Team televator, I only qualified for a Cat 2 level.
Nice to see that the keys are purple.


I was then able to select the Cat 4 Team instance.


Once inside the instance, we ended up at a cute cabin structure where revive and terminals are.


A different view of the ramp leading to the hunting area.

Yes, Magam is dressed in beach wear and sporting a crown.
He is “Mr. Arkadia” 2012

This was definitely a fun experience, and it’s been an interesting project to collect the details of the evolution of Merry Mayhem from its beginning. I’m sure that this won’t be the last time that changes will be made, because those who have participated in these events over the years have also participated in discussions at the Planet Calypso Forum offering opinions and suggestions.

For further information about any of the Merry Mayhem events since 2007, go here.
Good luck to those participating in this year’s Merry Mayhem.
The results will be published here at MSM when available.
