Full Details of One-month Flashback Events

I didn't see anywhere if league specific uniques were dropping for this event. Typically I know they do not but was hoping they had changed that due to all the feedback requests. Was this posted anywhere?

hypuuuuuuuuu

"A Worthy Foe: Kill the Boss of a Tier 8 or higher Map while it has Onslaught."

What is a "Tier 8" map?

What happens if you already have a full set of gold seraph? Are we allowed to exchange for something of lesser or same value?

Doesn't hurt to ask :p

Hey there! The Golden Seraph set is different from the Seraph set, just so you know ;)

Whoops, I forgot the other one is called "Elite", my bad though the Golden Seraph set was refering to the normal "Seraph" set!

Now I feel stoopid. xD

Surprisingly easy challenges, but overall this event looks very enjoyable!
Kind of disappointed about the golden seraph set... I guess that choice was set in stone long time ago, so community's feedback didn't help much there :/ but it's okay.



To people complaining about rng-based challenges: I think you guys miss the fact that league mods will cause a GUARANTEED (i.e. at least one) shrine/exile/invasion boss/etc IN EACH ZONE. That means you can even spam the ledge and quickly go through it with quicksilvers + f.dash or whirling blades, if you really want to encounter a divine shrine for example. Also, I can assure you that you will get an inner treasure and KotT before you reach level 85.
The only challenge that is really hard (due to its heavily rng-based nature), is "Kill the boss of a Unique Map.". BUT! remember that Zana can also spawn them in daily quests.

"Warbands-specific items can be found from these Warband members, because part of their implicit behaviour is to drop the special items." In the news spoiler :)
When the Tempest ends, "Tempest unique items will not drop from the regular game and can only be found through Zana's Map Device." so I assume Tempest-only uniques won't drop in this event. (in Manifesto about Warbands/Tempest)

Seems tier 8 map is a lvl 75 map

Overall, this was thoughtfully done. There are rewards for different interests (stashtabs, skins, bragging rights, computer) and an interesting mix of challenges, only some of which are gated by the RNG.

That said, I'm 99% sure I won't be participating. One month is too short for me, and I fear that I'll burn out of the game if I go for it. Sending good rng wishes for everyone who participates.

Rly easy Challenges. 3 are are bit rng-gated but it's still no problem to achieve them in the given time frame. If everything fails there are Zana-Mods that should help :P

Gl to all!

I cant believe people think these challenges are too easy.

I doubt I'll complete 75% of them even if I play 4 hours a day.

Guess you have to try harder then :P Playing 4 hours a day should be more than enough to complete them all. Even in half the time. Be time efficient and play a build with good clear speed that doesn't need insane expensive gear. (Incinerate dual totem etc.) Should be a no brainer then.

Easy for you to say. -_-

I dont have the reflexes or mechanical dexterity to not die. I die a lot. I can almost guarantee something will kill me before Normal Merveil.

I can see getting to level 85 will be close to my most frustrating and annoying one to get. I was hoping it would be level 75 or 80 at most. I die almost every time I run even a white level 68 Map rip 10% EXP over and over...yeah thats fun. I dont run Maps, hence leveling past 75-80 becomes very very slow.
