Epic Week 2019, Day 2: Progress Report

Posted by Kim on April 25, 2019, 12:19pm

With ~~four~~ five seals unlocked, the Gryphon Obelisk has begun to glow, and patient puzzle and riddle solvers are continuing their work. Do you want to join them, hero?

Perhaps riddles and puzzles aren't your cup of tea, but you still want to help -- you're in luck! There are FOUR collection quests going on, where simply turning in items will help to advance our plot. You can find all of the necessary items by exploring the labyrinth.

Super Scarab Collection Quest

Super Slugs Collection Quest

Lapis Lazuli Pebbles Collection Quest

Medicinal Plants Collection Quest (Yes, plants obtained in previous years count! Clean out your inventories!

)

As we make progress in solving the riddles, some more difficult monsters have started to arrive.

One of those monsters is a mechanical scorpion - if you suffer from arachnophobia triggered by related species like the scorpion, please know that you can adjust your settings to have all spider-like creatures turned into something else for Epic Week. Just put a checkmark next to "I have arachnophobia" on your settings page, and save your changes. This year, we've even got multiple versions of any videos that show scorpions, to make sure you have an arachnophobia safe version.

Member-Run Contests

Super Powers!

Have you noticed that the crystals in the labyrinth occasionally cause you to manifest different super powers during combat this year??
