    Time Limit
    Each participant is limited to a maximum of 40 hours in the Halloween event instances. This 40 hour limit applies to combined time in any of the Halloween instances, not each individual instance level.

    Event participants must keep track of their time spent in the event instances, since the current instance system unfortunately does not track time spent across multiple login/instance sessions.

    Please be aware that the 60 minute instance timer that appears once you enter one of the Halloween Mayhem instances is not an official time tracking feature for this event.



    Rules
    This event is intended for solo hunters. Any attempt at abusing team mechanics or any other Entropia Universe systems or features in order to gain an unfair advantage over other participants will be grounds for disqualification from the event, forfeiture of any prizes, and possible sanctions imposed on one’s Entropia Universe account.

    Do not abandon the mission! If you abandon the mission for any reason, either intentionally or accidentally, all points earned up to that point will be lost forever. Support cannot and will not restore points for abandoned missions, regardless of the situation.

    Happy hunting and Happy Halloween!
    The Planet Calypso Dev Team

  2. The image on the Client Loader looks great and I like the lootable strongboxes but...I know for sure I’d start the event naievely thinking I could loot something or even get in the Top 50 places but would soon drop out due to money disappearing too quickly.
