Talk:Year of the Black Dragon Event (2012)

My friend said I will never get a beam sword or a piece of the Space cat stuff from the gesture coupon because it's in the other boxes. But I told him it's probably because the ratio of getting the items are small since I would need to fight from getting 5/62 just for one beam sword in the gift boxes. However he keep telling me it's in the touchlight event coupon box reward but I know it's wrong because all the boxes are the same just small ratio. Is he right or I'm right because I just want one item of the Space cat gear but mostly the beam sword. :/

All of the event prizes that aren't given from the Slave are identical, the difference in the boxes is the rates. Gesture does give beam swords, just at a lower rate than the Night Market Event.

Hmm so if I did the torch light event I might get a better ratio chance of getting a beam sword. Problem is I can't really play Mabi since I have lots of work to do guess I'll have to buy one.

I've noticed that the Boxes the slave gives appear to have different rewards than just her giving you a gift directly. Might just be me so anyone care to confirm?

Sometimes he gives Skill Reset Capsules and Perfect Skill Rest Capsules instead of boxes. There might be other rewards. However, the Dragon hasn't spawned in weeks in Ruairi.

Talking about whether the items within the boxes are different compared to just recieving an item directly. I have never recieved a Def/Prot Potion directly, only from the boxes the slave gives. Which is why I'm kinda suspicious.

EDIT: I've decided to split the rewards from direct and gift boxes, because I feel they have different rewards.

Are you confident the way you have split it is correct?

I'm sure they're different, not sure what the rewards are exactly though.

No, I mean, are you sure you put the correct rewards in the correct places and didn't make a mistake and put one on the wrong list?

I'm not completely sure, B+ Bombs and 300 Potions could be wrong on direct rewards.

I'm sure lots of people have heard the news that the dragon is now giving out nerfed beam swords. Older ones are not affected, but newer ones are very weak. I don't know the stats since I haven't seen a newer one myself, but I heard the focused ruby's max damage is only 120, which is the same as an older adequate nova. If this is true, how should we organize the beam sword pages?

Wait, he started working again?...

I thought he retired on the 11th o-o

Hopefully this isn't old news, but from what I seen, stacking together potions and such that have different time limits averages the time limits together between the two, so a potion with 30 days left stacked with one with only 16 days left results in two potions with 23 days left each. I only tested this with the event potions, so I'm not sure how important this is.

That's true for every item that has time limits, such as Fireball pages.

I was wondering if theres any chance there could be a single special item or two that comes ONLY from a certain event. Nexon went to the trouble of making 6 different boxes (each minigame, + dragon), instead of just two (Minigame + Dragon) so I can't help but wonder if there was a reason.

Pillsbury said something about special White versions of the space cat, maybe each box has a different piece of the special ensemble?

I think they have different ratios for the better stuff.

That's a pretty good theory, anybody up to test it?

I think I've gotten more 2x potions from the bazaar events...

What happened to this?^

That's what we are doing to summon the Black Dragon, aka gather fragments, hand to delegates. Mugwort Event required us to kill monsters to gather the fragments to make it rain for a certain amount of time. For this event, we gather fragments from doing the mini events and turning in the coupons for boxes which contain the fragments.

Oh I see.

So do the beam swords just show as reward from any event, such as ski jump? Or is it only from the wise slave of the dragon?

Also, I got an AP 100 potion, so that should be under the wish of the dragon gift box.

I got an Adequate Rainbow Beam Sword from the Black Dragon's Slave. Not sure about other places.

Someone I know got an Adequate Ruby Beam Sword from the OX Quiz event before the previous Maintenance on the 21st of March. Because since the maintenance, the Quiz event has been down. But I will confirm that before it went down, you could obtain Beam Swords from this event as well. c:

Each Space Cat item (suit, helmet, gloves, shoes) has a very rare 15 dura white colored version. All of these 15 dura versions are white in color.

^

Would it happen to be in the box?

It's in fragments to my understanding...not familiar on how the overseas people did this...I did know they had a blast.

They also had it on overseas too?

Yep. as a Kickoff event for the year of the dragon...where else did we get info for the lightsabers :p

Well, the Dragon was summoned, but nothing happened? The hell kind of event is this?!

I think you have to be there before and during the dragon's summoning. People on Ruairi already have beam swords.

I talked to the servant. HE DIDN'T GIVE ME ANYTHING!!!

sometimes it takes 2 tries. also is it 1 per Ingame day or rl day

I spoke to the servant repeatedly. He just said "come back tomorrow".

Any indication that it will appear?

You need to talk to the slave, not the avatar when it appears, and the avatar will stop takeing frags, whether you have them or not

I think finishing the quest "Enjoy the Year of the Black Dragon Event" prior to wishing will not let you get the wish that day.

If you do the quest before wishing.*

I already finished it before I asked the wish.

I've been paying attention to those messages that scroll along at the top and was thinking of putting them somewhere on the page when I figure out their precise order.

Does anyone else think that that would be useful?

Was thinking the same thing! :)

I may be missing a few:

• Summon the Black Dragon and make a wish! The Wish upon a Black Dragon event is in progress.

• Collect Black Dragon's Fragments from various events and bring them to the Black Dragon Delegate in each town. We need everyone's help!

• We need more Black Dragon's Fragments to summon the Black Dragon! Bring Black Dragon's Fragments to the Black Dragon Delegates in each town.

• We have about half of the Black Dragon's Fragments we need. Please keep it up so we can summon the Black Dragon!

• We have almost all of the Black Dragon's Fragments now. Just a little more and the Black Dragon will appear!

• We've got Black Dragon's Fragments from all over Erinn. The Black Dragon will surely show up soon!

• The Black Dragon has appeared! If you want to make a wish, come see a Black Dragon Delegate.

I noticed that many rewards from one event gift box is found in pretty much every other event gift box too. So I was wondering if it would be right to say that every event gift box gives the same reward? (Except maybe for the wishing gift box.) Thoughts on this?

In early versions of the page, the Black Flamemare Whistle was a possible reward from the OX Quiz Show. It has since been removed. Has it been verified that the Black Flamemare Whistle is NOT one of the possible rewards from this version of the OX Quiz Show?

It's the other way around, we need to verify it being a reward, not verifying it not being a reward.

Ah, I thought it would have been verified (or had some proof positive) before they put it up on the page. :(

I was able to end my client using the task manager when that happened allowing me to log back in and talk to him. I even got a reward too.

How exactly do they work? is it like, servers collects x amount then everyone whos on gets a box?

Statue? What statue?

my bad was on the mabi data info

i mean the Black Dragon's Fragment

I think it works as that formula, but we've summoned the Dragon and NOTHING happened. I'm dumbfounded.

what server was it on?

and how ca you tell if it's summoned?

Alexina.

The Avatar will stop accepting Fragments. Then click "Change Events" and warp to "Wish upon a Black Dragon Event". Boom, its right there.

The helper gave me 3 tickets when I scored over 1800, just so people know.

and it will say that you have an "amazing score" and the helper will say that she thought "you were flying"

The questions are fresh. :P Someone make a page for 'em.

Not all of them are new. Some are still taken from the existing pool.

I think it's fine to keep on adding to the old page.
