Who: Everyone (no FU membership required)
What: The Lvl 10 Dunes Alliance + Best Death Contest
When: September 10th (Sunday), 2006 @ 3pm CST (<--updated)
Where: Valkurm Dunes
Why: Payback

Additional Info:

I'm sure you all remember your first trip to the dunes...heck, even your last trip. It was filled with death, dispair, mayhem, more death, and possibly even a fair share of curse words. Am I correct?

Well now it's time for a little payback, wouldn't you agree? :twisted:

FableUnity will be hosting a revival of the two-part event: "Lvl 10 Dunes Alliance," and the "Best Death Contest." For those who remember, this was FU's first (and most fun) major event. Not only did it allow us to utterly murder all those Goblins, Lizards, and Undead that tortured us the first time around, but we also got the chance to try out some new jobs that we might want to play some day.

FU Membership isn't required to participate in the event!


Level 10 Alliance

Why kill monsters with 6 when you can kill them with 18? This is a nonstop 1-2 hours of slaughtering those dunes mobs with not one...not two...but three parties of your angry fellow Shivans.

Here's the rules:
**You MUST have a level 10 job to participate. Only level 10s will be invited. If you have a level 5, get it to 10...you have a month so no complaining. If you have a level 12, delevel it. Only level 10s will be allowed to join :D
**You MUST be able to show up on-time in the dunes. The alliance starts at 3pm CST, so it's best to show up ~2:30 just to be safe. That way we can get you teleported and escorted to the dunes if need-be.
**Only the first 18 will be allowed to participate, so come early. If we get more people, we may start up another alliance

The Best Death Contest

Of course, the dunes is all about death...a fact that some of us know all too well. After the "Level 10 Alliance," show us your death skills by enacting the "best" death. There are many ways to die, you show us the best. The winner takes home a prize!

Here's the rules:
**There is no level requirement/restriction
**There is a 5 minute time limit. If your death goes over 5 minutes from the time I say "go," you become disqualified
**Props can be used, so be creative. Items...fireworks...people? The "best" death isn't just the one who dies the fastest or the loudest. ;)
**Only the people who participate can vote

The winner of the "Best Death Contest" will have the choice of gil (up to 100k) or a variable-value mystery item. Remember, FU membership isn't a requirement so don't be shy about joining us for the event. If you plan on attending, simply post your intent here so we know to look for you.

Best of luck, and FU!

this sh[]t sounds so damned fun lol. i think im going to try it. i dont like white mages and my whm just so happens to be lvl 10.

i often make a naked lvl 1 race from jueno(batillia downs) to windy. the people who survive and make it past the dunes have to wait in mauhra for the remaing people, sorta like a pit stop gathering on the boat to get ready for the last stretch to windy. its actually quit funny. seeing about 30 naked lvl 1 people run through zones getting agro/links from everything possible. there is lots of strategy as well lol. i like to play it safe and follow behind people, wait for them to agro then run on past them.

FU events are always fun. I'm game

But for "Best Death" event, I can't do it in Valkurm Dunes. It has to be in Sky, and I need a Galka.....

Sorry siv, it's all about the dunes. Dunes deaths are a must ;)

And no, you don't need standard equip for the event. It might help if you plan to stick around and level afterwards, but you can pretty much bring whatever you want. With 18 people beating on a single monster, they tend to go down fast. If memory serves, the exp isn't that bad either.

My SAM is Lv. 9, I can get it to 10 easily in time for the event. Too bad, though because the "Funny Death" that I had in mind.....I planned on re-creating my most hilarious death ever.

You can always find a random Earth Elemental and recreate it. Unfortunately you won't be able to "magic aggro" with "that spell" at level 10.

It wouldn't work. I don't think Earth Elementals in Valkurm Dunes use any magic spells that can one-shot a Lv. 10. If they magic aggro, they ususlly just cast "Rasp" and then come up to you and melee. Nothing funny about that.

Just for grins, I may have Sophus meet me @ sky along with a bunch of other FU and LoTB members so that I can re-create my now "infamous" death.

Um Soph.... if I were to re-activate my acct, my lowest of lvls is lvl 20 :( On all 3 characters.

Sounds like fun though. Just dropping in. And much <3 to all of my friends in FU and alike.

Just a reminder, you've got this week and next to get a job to level 10. Don't be late, and don't forget to practice your best death!

I just found out that several people are going to be out of town this weekend for Labor Day (since it's a 3-day weekend). Is this the case with anyone else? If so, I will postpone it by one week and hold it on the 10th?

Okay, I updated the date to be pushed back one week for everyone who couldn't attend due to the 3-day weekend (Labor Day). That means 1 more week to get the job of your choice up to level 10.

Don't miss out!

The prizes really are your choice of gil (up to 100k), or a random mystery item. Last time the winner walked away with some HQ gear to help her continue levelling her Paladin. This year promises to be just as impressive. And best of all...it's free to join!

Don't forget, the FU "Level 10 Alliance" is this Sunday at 3pm CST! Only level 10 jobs will be allowed to participate, but the prizes alone will be worth the effort.

Get your jobs levelled (or deleveled ;) ), and stick around for the "Best Death Contest." All props and macros can be used, so time it right for the biggest laugh and the loudest applause.

We look forward to seeing you there!
