I personally did not attend the new pet carnival, but i would like to add that there are a few ways to mob spawn using simple database injections. Timing them every 3 days for 2 hours in designated zones on every map would be a semi-easy procedure to write. Im not sure what language this game is written in but most likely it would be C++ and would use VSB to control procedures/debug.

Each map could have a swarm of mobs that are lvl equivalent to that specific map/area, each with a respawn time of 5/7 seconds. This would enable all players to efficiently lvl their pets with not so much server load/lag in any specific area. Making the mobs with a movement speed of "0" would hold them stationary, also lessening load. Multiple spawns would be the most ideal situation for mass ranges of lvls/prowess.

i could write up a mock-up procedure to give an idea to devs if they would so choose. This new idea is nice, just needs a bit of fine tuning^^ You are on the right track though, thats for sure:D

It's all a matter of time constraints. We literally do not have the time to go to several maps across 6 servers and run the macros. This is why creature carnival is constrained to one map. Respawn rates are also not controlled by GMs, but Developers.  

Ok. So a different map/mobs/macro each day of the week? Sounds like a great solution. Wink

If time constraints are the issue, maybe Aeria needs to hire another GM or two just to help with events, since this game is generating so much revenue from AP sales. Things must be selling well with the excessive AP pricing on many items where lowering prices to generate more sales aren't even considered.

Cheers

Great event, i was very happy to see the barren mobs i managed to gain some good p2 xp, only problem was they were all killed fast and i had 20hrs on pill left.
I like the suggestion for waves, there was a decent amount to share they just all got killed very fast so respawning them in waves would be great.(although i will not complain if you add more to the initial count Wink )

Nice to see a new event!
I stopped attending draten carnival because i despise wafes.

I'm probably going to have to adjust the macro to include more spawns, or drop them in waves. Thanks for the feedback!  


Thought using a macro was bannable ?
