[Dan]

Heritage Summer Festival June 15th - August 15th. Mistas Ilshenar.

During this year's Summer Festival players will be tasked with tracking and hunting down the mighty Paragons and Champions of Ilshenar while also beating back the Jukan attempts to re-take the city of Mistas.

Players will be able to collect tickets to turn in for various rewards at this year's Summer Festival Ticket Merchant located near the Mistas Ilshenar Moongate.

Ways to earn tickets:

• Quests
  • 3 quests can be completed for various amounts of tickets (one quest is not an NPC but a new notice sign). There is no restart delay and the quest givers can be found near the Mistas Moongate
• Juka Invasion at the gates of Mistas
  • Keen to retake the city they once called their home the Juka have begun massing their forces at the gates of Mistas. Beat them back once an hour for a chance at some unique items and tickets.
    • Rewards:
      • 25% Chance - Unique Reward Title Deed
      • 15% Chance - Unique Apron
      • 5 festival tickets - rewarded at random
• Participating in various events during the festival:
  • There will be a posted fishing contest, monster bash, and more. Tickets will be rewarded for participating.
• Festival Ticket Statue
  • Players can earn one ticket, per account, per day, by visiting the Ticket Statue (Lizardman statue) near the Mistas Moongate.

Important things to note:

• Champions in Ilshenar have a rare chance to spawn as a paragon. If they do they will reward power scrolls as if they were in Felucca. This also goes for the boss at the end of the Juka invasion spawn.
• Paragons in Ilshenar will only drop a unique spellbook during this Summer Festival if a normal artifact drop takes place.
  • Paragons in Ilshenar have a +250 luck bonus applied to all players for a chance at a drop.

As always a few smaller additions and rewards will get added after the first week of the event to keep things feeling fresh. Remember to check this post from time to time as new content/changes are noted.

Known Issues

• The Ticket Statue Replica reward on the Summer Festival Ticket Merchant hides the small blue gem you click to claim it. If you simply target the middle far left side of the statue you can still claim it correctly.

Summer Festival Fishing Contest!

July 1st - July 3rd 2022

• Players will have to catch a Big Fish
• 
• There was some confusion in years past, there are many named fish now but for this contest, it must be the one pictured.
• The Big Fish must have been caught by you and have your character's name on it.
• The Big Fish MUST have a date of 7/1 - 7/3/2022 on it!
  • The fish record dates based on UTC/Server time. Say [time in-game.
  • https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/timezone/utc

• Players will then have until 7/9/2022 to reach out to me and turn in their biggest fish.
• Players are only allowed to submit ONE FISH PER PERSON(IP)
• To submit a fish buy a bag and a book. Put the fish and book inside the bag. Inside the book write your player's name. Reach out to me on Discord or the forums with the name of your fisherman.
• The winners will be announced shortly after.

Fish will be judged by WEIGHT. The TOP THREE players who turn in the biggest Big Fish, with the correct dates on it, will receive a rare fishing pole!

Out of those top three, the player who turns in the BIGGEST fish will receive a special title deed with the title "Summer Fishing Tournament Champion"
(in the event of a tie two will be handed out)

Everyone who submits a big fish will be rewarded with 50 Summer Festival Tickets.

As a reminder, it is against the rules to AFK fish as you are "gathering". We will be doing extra patrols during the tournament and anyone found AFK fishing, besides the normal penalties, will not be allowed to participate in any future fishing contests.

The 48 Hour Event Chest near the Event Merchant has been activated due to players on Heritage reaching 25,000+ global paragon kills!

After 48 hours from this posting the event chest will self-destruct!

Note: though players will only have 48 hours to claim this reward if later during the event players reach 50,000 global paragon kills the text on item saying, "In Commemoration Of 25,000 Paragon Kills" will be updated to say, "In Commemoration of 50,000 Paragon Kills".
