Subject: Summer Solstice Celebration 2020 Prizes! | |||
------------------------------------------------------------------------ | |||
Post-event prizes for the Summer Solstice Celebration 2020 are now | |||
available! Talk to Xena in room 1388 to receive your prize(s). | |||
If you completed Wave 0 in the Puzzlewood or 100 kills on Starving Rock, | |||
you get a participation award: a commemorative frisbee! | |||
If you completed the 1000 kills quest on Starving Rock, you win a ring of | |||
limitless possibilities. This will randomize its stats every time you cast | |||
dispel magic on it and will adjust to your level. | |||
If you completed two of the three event areas (1000 kills on Starving Rock, | |||
Wave 30 of the Puzzlewood or saved the people of Mowami Island from the | |||
volcano), you win a prize voucher that can be exchanged for a piece of | |||
equipment. Turn the voucher in to the class guildmaster of your choice in | |||
Ralnoth. For example, for the gauntlets of the fire warrior, you give the | |||
voucher to the guildmaster of swordsmen. | |||
The gauntlets are all hands wear location pieces of equipment with 1 | |||
castlevel and absorbfire by 5. They are class flagged. For example, the | |||
mage version looks like this: | |||
Item: 'gauntlets red flames fire mage' | |||
Weight: 1 Size: 1'0" Level: 38 | |||
Type: ARMOR Composition: METAL Defense: 2 ac-apply | |||
Object is: MAGE | |||
Wear locations are: HANDS | |||
Item has other effects: | |||
Affects: MAGE_CAST_LEVEL by 1 | |||
Affects: ABSORB_FIRE by 5 | |||
If you change your mind, return the gauntlets to the guildmaster to get | |||
back a voucher. (This will be disabled in about a month to prevent | |||
crafting abuse.) Gauntlets from previous events can also be returned for a | |||
voucher, if you so choose. | |||
For completing all three event areas, you win the grand prize: a cloak of | |||
flames! | |||
If you don't want your ring of limitless possibilities or cloak of flames, | |||
you can give it back to Xena for a prize voucher. You can also turn in any | |||
rings of limitless possibilities from previous events. | |||
If you don't want to trade your voucher for equipment, you can give it to | |||
Xena for 2000 gold. | |||
Also if you're interested in completing the 'Obtained Soul Eater, | |||
ultramarine form' feat but have since lost your Soul Eater, you can get | |||
another one from Xena by giving her 10000 gold. This will give you a | |||
carnelian form Soul Eater. You must have done the prerequisite quests of | |||
rescuing Lady Lyonors, slaying Lady Morgana and having had Lynette explain | |||
Soul Eater to you to obtain the feat. (There is no advantage to gaining | |||
multiple Soul Eaters, so don't waste your gold if you already have one.) | |||
Xena will be available until the end of the Feast of the Sacrifice event on | |||
August 6th. | |||
TL/DR Talk to Xena until she stops giving you stuff. | |||

Summer Solstice 2020 was the version of the Summer Solstice Celebration that took place during the final half of June 2020 and ended at the beginning of July 2020. It is the eighth such event. As usual, it was organzied by the world builder Shadowfax. Fellow world builder Morpheus assisted with the event this year.
The 'event show' command displayed the following throughout the event:
The Summer Solstice Celebration has begun! The first event area available is the Starving Rock, a single player zone designed for players of all levels. The strength of monsters within will scale up with your level. The goal of this area is to kill 1000 monsters by the time the event ends on the 29th. You can exit the area at any time and pick up where you left off later. Use 'event start 108' to enter the area. The next available event area is the Puzzlewood Mire. This area is intended for high level group who know what they're doing. The scenario involves defeating wave after wave of monsters of increasing strength. All waves must be completed in a single instance. You receive credit any mob of equal or higher level than the wave you're currently on. There are 31 in this year's event. Use 'event start 137' to enter the area. The main event area is Mowami Island. The volcano on this island is about to erupt, and villagers have prayed to the gods for deliverance. You can be the answer to their prayers! Type 'event start 154' to be transported to Mowami Island and start the scenario. Fight fires, lava and poisonous gases to keep the villagers safe and prevent their huts from being destroyed. If your character doesn't have a lot of magic, try levelling up the Firefighter bonus class to give yourself the tools you will need. The scenario scales in difficulty with level and takes about a half hour to complete. (If you fail the mission, you need to start again in a new instance.) There is a strategy guide about how to complete this scenario on board 8 if you need more help. Please connect to the 'event' channel and refer to the 'event schedule' for further updates.
