Pumpkin mission NPC in Fort IthacaMerry Mayhem NPC in Minopolis Mission NPC

The Merry Mayhem Mission NPC is located in Minopolis, at the following map coordiates: (87500, 85110). Registration

You can register for the event by accepting either one or both Merry Mayhem missions offered by the Merry Mayhem Mission Broker NPC in Minopolis. Registration opens on December 20 and will remain open until the event ends. Note that there are two separate missions: one for the solo event and one for the team event.

      • IMPORTANT*** Do not abandon the missions! If you abandon a Merry Mayhem mission, all event points accumulated up to that time will be forfeit. Support cannot restore points lost due to abandoning one of the Merry Mayhem Missions.

Participation

When you accept the mission, you will automatically be placed in the appropriate category and will receive a stack of instance gate keys, each of which provides one hour of hunting time in the associated Merry Mayhem instance. The portals to the Merry Mayhem instances are located in Minopolis. The Merry Mayhem Mission NPC will provide you with 500 keys for the solo event and 500 keys for the team event which will be flagged with your particular category. While the solo keys only allow you to enter the instance category specified in the item name, you can use the team keys to enter instances above your assigned level as well. Points are earned by killing special Merry Mayhem creatures found inside the instances. Where do I Enter?

The portals to the Merry Mayhem instances are located in Minopolis on the east side of the Eudoria continent. The map on this page should help in locating the location of the Merry Mayhem instance gates and NPC.

Categories

The event offers several different competition categories to accommodate players of varying profession levels. Players will be sorted into one of the following five categories upon accepting one of 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 70-99 Category 5: Professional Standing 100+ 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 allotted keys. Creatures

Solo Category Creatures Category 1 Solo: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (S,1), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (S,1), Yulebot (S,1) Category 2 Solo: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (S,2), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (S,2), Yulebot (S,2) Category 3 Solo: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (S,3), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (S,3), Yulebot (S,3) Category 4 Solo: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (S,4), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (S,4), Yulebot (S,4) Category 5 Solo: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (S,5), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (S,5), Yulebot (S,5) Team Category Creatures Category 1 Team: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (T,1), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (T,1), Yulebot (T,1) Category 2 Team: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (T,2), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (T,2), Yulebot (T,2) Category 3 Team: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (T,3), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (T,3), Yulebot (T,3) Category 4 Team: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (T,4), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (T,4), Yulebot (T,4) Category 5 Team: Merry Mayhem Kerberos (T,5), Merry Mayhem Araneatrox (T,5), Yulebot (T,5) Based on feedback from last year’s event, all of the Merry Mayhem creatures have been rebalanced in relation to their respective event point values. Merry Mayhem Entrances in Minopolis Scoring

Event points are earned based upon the type of creature killed: 1 Point - Merry Mayhem Kerberos 2 Points - Merry Mayhem Araneatrox 10 Points - Yulebot A new scoring method is in place for this year's Merry Mayhem that will greatly minimize the impact of client crashes or server issues on the event results. Final event scores will be calculated based on hourly point averages to derive each participant's 30-hour normalized event score. This scoring method removes the need for participants to track time spent in the instances (beyond meeting the 30-hour prize eligibility requirement, described below), removes the risk of participants being inadvertently disqualified from the event for time reasons, and allows all participants to hunt as much as desired in the Merry Mayhem instances without giving an unfair advantage to those who are able to hunt for many, many hours. Example Avatar A - Point total: 4000, Hours : 32, Hourly point average: 125, 30-hour normalized score: 3750 Avatar B - Point total: 8600, Hours: 72, Hourly point average: 119.44, 30-hour normalized score: 3583.33 In this example, Avatar A would place higher in the final results, even though Avatar B has more total points. Highest Single Loot Bonus - The participant who scores the highest single loot on each of the various Merry Mayhem creatures outlined above will receive a 25% boost to their final 30-hour normalized score! Prizes

Prizes will be awarded to the participants that achieve the highest 30-hour normalized scores within each category.

      • IMPORTANT*** A participant must complete at least 30 hours in the assigned Merry Mayhem instance in order to qualify for winning a prize.

The solo category events are intended for solo hunters. Any attempt at abusing team mechanics or any other Entropia Universe systems or features in order to gain an unfair advantage over other participants will be grounds for disqualification from the event, forfeiture of any prizes, and possible sanctions imposed on one’s Entropia Universe account. Do not abandon the Merry Mayhem missions! If you abandon one of the event missions for any reason, intentionally or accidentally, all points earned up to that point will be lost forever and will not be included in your final event score. Support cannot and will not restore points for abandoned missions, regardless of the situation.

      • IMPORTANT*** A participant must complete at least 30 hours in the assigned Merry Mayhem instance in order to qualify for winning a prize.

For the Highest Single Loot (HSL) score bonus, if the participant who achieves the HSL on one of the Merry Mayhem creatures does not meet the 30-hour prize eligibility requirement, the next highest loot for the creature in question will be considered. And so on, until a prize-eligible participant is awarded the HLS score bonus. Happy Holdiays and Merry Mayhem! The Planet Calypso Team FAQ

Q: Do I need to actually spend 30 hours inside the Merry Mayhem instances, or just use 30 of the instance keys that were provided? A: All Merry Mayhem event score and time calculations are based on actual time spent in the event instances, not on keys consumed. Q: If I experience a client crash, disconnection or other issue while in one of the Merry Mayhem instances, how will this affect my time calculation and/or final score? A: As explained above, all calculations are based on actual time connected to one of the event instances. In the case of a client crash or disconnection, time in the event instance will stop being counted within approximately 10 seconds of disconnection. Q: I was assigned to Category 1 Team. If I spend 10 hours in a Category 2 Team instance helping a friend, will those hours count against my Category 1 Team hourly point average? A: No. Time spent in team instances above your assigned category will not be counted when calculating your assigned category score. Q: Is it possible to win a prize in more than one category? A: No. Participants are assigned a particular category when accepting the Merry Mayhem mission(s). It is therefore not possible to earn points in any of the other categories.
