Roaming Elite

Command: .events

Using it

Open .events: the Live tab shows where it is now. It is one of the hourly World Events: every full hour one event starts, picked by the players vote or at random 5 minutes ahead. A GM can also start it by hand. In a town an event uses, the VIP town speed bonus is off until it is over.
A strong invader mini-boss (3.0x life) stands in a farming zone for 25 minutes; the zone is announced. At 75, 50 and 25 percent of its life it blinks to another zone of about the same level and the new zone is announced - chase it.
Near it, when you come within 1500 of the elite a yellow arrow shows above your character for 2 seconds and points at it, with a line on screen and in chat (distance and direction). It comes back every 30 seconds while you stay in range. It goes away at once when you walk out of range or the target is gone; nobody outside the range gets it.

The kill is 1000 points split by damage. Points: every 100 damage you deal = 1 point, the value of each kill split by the damage each player dealt, and 0 points for a heal or buff on a player who already scored (at most one per 3 seconds). Any points = Participant; 200 points and 0.5% of all points = Contributor; 600 points and either 3% of all points or one of the first 10 places = Top; the most points = Winner.
The reward is World Event Points, spent in the World Event Shop (.events > Shop): Participant 10 points, Contributor 30 points, Top 60 points, Winner 100 points, plus points for your score, times the weight of the event. An account earns at most 400 points a day. Any level can take part; one payment per account and per connection; ghosts and Offline Farm characters never.
