Taisidon Mystery - Dispensers 09/17/2021 06:51 AM CDT
Greetings!

You will find [a lion dispenser], [a leaf dispenser], [a dragon dispenser], [a cloud dispenser], and [a warrior dispenser] in the A'baya Esplanade, Central Walkway at the Taisidon Mystery quest grounds. You can SHOP and purchase an origami "ticket" from any dispenser for 100 points. The ticket's noun is aligned to the pin on the container for the grand prize set from that dispenser. You can purchase as many tickets as you wish from all dispensers during the course of the event. Each ticket purchased will increase your odds of winning that dispenser's random draw.

Toward the end of the Taisidon Mystery event, at 4pm ET on Sunday, September 26th, all dispenser ticket sales will stop. After that, TWO winners will be selected from EACH dispenser and they will BOTH win a copy of the grand prize. Winner 1 and Winner 2 will be selected in the following manner:

Winner 1 will be the player with the highest individual ticket total from that dispenser. In the event of ties, a random winner will be select from the high total group. Winner 1's tickets will then be removed from the pool.

Winner 2 will be drawn at random from the entire remaining pool of all tickets purchased from that dispenser. You do not need to be present or even logged in at the time of this drawing to be selected as Winner 2. The live drawing will occur at approximately 8:30pm (Prime), 8:45pm (Plat), and 9pm (TF) ET on Sunday, September 26th.

If you do not win a grand prize from an individual dispenser, then all of your tickets purchased from that dispenser will instead count toward a memory orb prize which will gain 25% drain per ticket you purchased. This singular memory orb prize is created based on all tickets purchased across all dispensers from this event, excluding any dispenser you win a grand prize from.

Examples:
1 ticket = 25%; 1 use at 25% drain
2 tickets = 50%; 1 use at 50% drain
3 tickets = 75%; 1 use at 75% drain
4 tickets = 100%; 1 use at 100% drain
5 tickets = 125%; 1 use at 100% drain and 1 use 25% drain
14 tickets = 350%; 3 uses at 100% drain and 1 use at 50% drain
52 tickets = 1300%; 13 uses at 100% drain
143 tickets = 3575%; 35 uses at 100% drain and 1 use at 75% drain

The memory orb can be activated to immediately drain field experience into ranks. The orb will always try to drain 100% when activated, and it will not be destroyed until the balance is completely used up. There is a 100-minute cooldown between using 100% drain across any combination of memory orbs. The orb will be unaligned at first, and you can TURN it to a specific skill of your choosing before its first use. After you select the skill for the orb it will remain aligned to that skill and cannot be changed again.

The memory orb prize can be retrieved using the CLAIM MEMORYORB command, which will be set up and available within 24 hours of the grand prize drawings. We will post here again when the updated CLAIM MEMORYORB is available after the event.

You can read the ledger on each dispenser throughout the event to see current ticket totals for that dispenser.

Glowing crimson moonsilver symbols representing the Elemental Plane of Fire are etched across the dome of this exotic skull, casting a haunting pall that illuminates and enhances the vibrancy of the stones set in the creature's vacant eye sockets. The strands of muscle and flesh that dangle from the interior of the cranium are unusually fresh as if the piece was just removed from living flesh.

As you move an enruned fire maiden topaz-eyed lion skull draped in strands of fresh sinew toward you, the dangling fibrils suddenly writhe with unnatural life, grasping forward and latching themselves on to various spots along your head.

>remove skull
You grasp the sides of an enruned fire maiden topaz-eyed lion skull draped in strands of fresh sinew and struggle to lift it from your head.
