August Promotion
Hi folks!
Returning in August for the first time in a while are giftbags!
Every 25 credits purchased from the website (www.aetolia.com/credits) rewards a giftbag! The first 100 credits purchased comes with an extra bag for every 10 credits. This means that your first 100 credit purchase awards 14 bags right away! In addition to that, every 500 credit threshold you reach will award an additional 5 giftbags! That means if you buy 500 credits, you’ll receive 35 giftbags, and every 500 credits after that will award 25 bags instead of the standard 20!
GIFTBAG EXCHANGE
———————————————-
Single bags can be exchanged for either a red, orange, yellow, green, blue, or violet bag. Almost everything in the coloured bags can also be found in the standard bag, but at a lower rate. Coloured bags contain many of the same prizes as standard bags but allow you to more easily target a specific item.
Five unopened bags can be exchanged for either a gold giftbag or a monochrome giftbag. Gold giftbags have a higher minimum value than five separate bags added up. Monochrome bags have the same prizes as a standard giftbag, but when opened, up to ten people in the room with you also get prizes as if they had opened one too!
You may have noticed the addition of RANDOM to the exchange syntax! You can now append RANDOM when exchanging a basic giftbag to swap it for a completely random colour, with around a 10% chance to roll it straight into a gold bag!
You can also optionally specify a number of bags to exchange, or ALL to do all of them. In the case of golds, ALL will leave the remainder after converting every multiple of five.
Regular & Monochrome Giftbag
—————————–
Chocolates, Divine oils (including new oils for ZYRIALITH, EUTHYMIUS, CELEZOR, and ARVELIS), elemental globes, customisation certificates, chalices, discount vouchers, Iron Coins, minipets, ilmenite puzzle boxes, voxes, compendium pages, style scrolls, consumables, relic coffers*, steed whistles**, and a chance at various artifacts in the 50-2000 credit range.
Note: All of the minipets, styles, and compendium pages in this bag are drawn from the individual ones in the coloured bags below.
Red Giftbag
————
Minipet: a red-hued, winged lizard, Page: Underbelly, Style: Fiery, Vox: Loud, Chocolate: Strawberry. This bag has a much higher chance at giftbag consumables.
Orange Giftbag
————–
Minipet: a soot-covered canary, Page: Zenith’s Vigil, Style: Gourmandic, Vox: Blaring, Chocolate: Fudge. Standard misc artifacts swapped out for crafting and trade artifacts.
Yellow Giftbag
—————
Minipet: a little leopard cub, Page: Maestral Shoals, Style: Stormy, Vox: Sibilant, Chocolate: Cherry. This bag has a much higher chance to award elemental globes.
Green Giftbag
————-
Minipet: a stained glass frog, Page: Fractal Bloom, Style: Venomous, Vox: Penetrative, Chocolate: Mint. This bag has a much higher chance to award silver chalices.
Blue Giftbag
————-
Minipet: a luminescent beetle, Page: Nal’jin, Style: Tundral, Vox: Amplifying, Chocolate: White. This bag has a much higher chance at relic coffers.
Violet Giftbag
————–
Minipet: a brightly plumed peacock, Page: Torturer’s Caverns, Style: Underhanded, Vox: Simplistic, Chocolate: Hazelnut. This bag has a much higher chance at Divine oils.
Gold Giftbag
————
Minipets, voxes, and compendium pages are removed. Single chocolates are now bags of 3. Divine phylacteries (including new phylacteries for ABHORASH, LEXADHRA, EUTHYMIUS, CELEZOR and ARVELIS; dead Gods removed from drops) and gold translocator pieces added. Higher chance at relic coffers and a very low chance at salvage.
All giftbags always award either a city experience buff or an iron coin alongside other prizes. For gold bags, this is a tether-wide or global buff!
* Relics in the coffers this month are: super_ear, trapgold, sensebacklash, hunters_knife, hunters_horn, veil_silhouette, and horns***. These coffers will have 1 piece to be commensurate with giftbag values!
** Steeds available are: an enormous feathered goose, a mud-coated hippo, a war-painted orel, a black rhinoceros, an oversized, mountable ant, and a quill-necked arrex (flying!).
*** Horns relic can now be relic attired!
There is also a global prize that’s triggered after every 500th giftbag opened, where one of the next 50 after that will give a bonus 500 credits!
Giftbag city experience buffs no longer show a global message each time it gets applied. The global message will nowonly show up if one of the affected cities didn’t already have the experience buff, otherwise it will just refresh the timer silently. You can still take advantage of the anonymous option ( OPEN GIFTBAG ANONYMOUS ) to hide your name from the exp buff announcement.
Additionally, every Thursday in August will confer a bonus to critical hits!
Enjoy!
