It could be that homins have seriously underestimated the cleverness of Nevrax’s plans. Imagine their happy surprise when the diggers unwrap their rewards for honor points – Supreme q250 Poles of Peacefulness. These Kami devices inhibit PvP in their area. Once activated, they cannot be moved. However, these devices have a ferocious appetite for mats, requiring hundreds of mats per hour to operate. Supreme high q mats cause the poles to generate the largest area of peace.

Meanwhile, the determined warriors have opened their prizes – Supreme q250 Amplifiers of RP Writing. As they slipped them on the chat atmosphere suddenly changed:

“lolz u c ne …... Sing, O Jena, of the wrath of Jyudas, that brought countless ills upon the Atysians. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to the Dragon, and many a hero did it yield a prey to torbaks and izam, …”

Afterwards, the role-playing prose flowed like ambrosia from the rhytons of Olympus.

He hee.

I think the rewards are gonna be considerably more lame. But I think lame is ok as long as it's relevant, for example: A yubo-fur and homin-skin t-shirt with "I was ganked" imprinted on it.

Ooooh ohh, or a new emote: "Dance on corpse" and "Cant you see Im onlyyy digging!"

Hmmm, maybe the devs should ask the top diggers, crafters and fighters what they want for rewards? Perhaps Jena and Ma-duk actually take in an interest in the desires of their most devoted followers?

Dude... you been reading our chat logs ? Some of the sweetest weapons around now come from events in the past. Many of us are working harder than ever and expecting quite a bit... The dedication folks are putting in should reap worthy rewards since we sure aint been leveling anything for weeks now

If the Karavan give us pistols with focus boosts, I am going to shoot the temple to ashes with them

Joking aside, I am completely clueless what the rewards will be, and their cost. Lots of questions here:

* will they be 'consumables'/'perishables'? any gear is bound to wear off, unless you keep it in apptm.

* new actions, bricks, special skills?

* XP rewards have been hinted in docs. Are those the same catalyzers as the outposts ones, or I can trade honp directly for levels?

* Faction specific armors and weapons? <- I'm hoping these

There are other questions:

* Who will be giving these gifts? NPC, regular trainers?

* Do we need the get the rewards at a specific date/time? I hope not, imagine a player that has been participating but needs to go abroad for a week and he finds himself with honor points he can't use "a week later".

* Are these honpoints tied to the spires minigame? how?

Just so. I fear that no matter what the prizes are, some will be disappointed. Did they give out a variety of weapons in the past, or just a few types? Will the masters of maces be unhappy with Event Daggers? Will the diggers want incredible digging gear instead? I think that they should poll the high scorers to see what sorts of ideas come up.

I am scared of how they will be awarded.. a casual player might amass 20k or so honor points... but some players have over a million.

5000 pts - Your own pew in the temple with a shiny gold plaque engraved with your name

4000 pts - same as above with shiny silver plaque

3000 pts - same with shiny bronze plaque

All pews are in the back row. Add 1000 pts/row to move your pew closer to the front, or for an extra 5000 pts you can have a seat on a raised platform to the side where everyone can see how uber you are.

2000 pts - your name will be listed as a contributor to the glory of the temple on a big plaque in the front foyer of the temple

1000 pts - your name will be engraved on one of the temple bricks. Spend additional points to choose a better brick

[Edit: May have to multiply all values by 10 or 100... don't know what kinds of point values people are getting ]

a pick that kills the area faster, one piece of armor and something else you won't use anyway
