There we are again with an event that makes us look for a random mob to drop things to trade in for a random prize every 6 hours. Remember Turkeys? The issue is the same, people who doesn't have a lot of free time to run around and gather those every 6 hours should be able to, at least, stack them when you find more than one of the same kind. Specially when you have more than one char to do it (Mage+Attacker+something) and can't trade them.
The spawn and drop rate are actually good this time. I managed to get them done under 20minutes per character. Sometimes even faster, since it usually drops multiple ingredients per pig for me.
Because the rewards for this quest are fairly good, we didn't want players to be able to farm a ton of the items on one character, to then be able pass them off to other accounts and easily gain the reward on characters that have not done any work towards the quest themselves. The drop rate has also been improved over the turkeys. -edit: ninja'd by Mori.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as I remember from last year, there was one of the 4 items that was REALLY RARE, and Untradeable.
You mean, after the exchange? If so, then yeah. It's the Orb! But I got 2 within my first two exchange, so.........
