Queen of Ice Killshot

Post by Alkasyn »

Well, everyone saw the message:

The Queen of Ice has been slain! Zata'hur dealt the killing blow to this mighty foe! Sorcha dealt the most damage toward this victory with 1350 points of damage ! (2025-12-18 22:02:29)

But no Diadem of the Ice Queen for the Killshot, which I believe is the reward?

Instead I got the Tome of Everfrost:
- The Queen of Ice shrieks in defeated rage! Her form dissipates into frost, leaving behind a pile of ancient robes. You search them, finding a Tome of Everfrost! (2025-12-18 22:02:29).

Is that expected behaviour? The second run also got a Tome of Everfrost. That's a bit unrewarding TBH (Is that even a special weapon?)

Yep, the change in reward item is one of the things that has changed about this event since it was introduced.

Looking at the code, this changed in January 2024, so successful hunters in last year's event got Tomes too. The only reason why people have leftover Diadems now is because they're clothing items and the Tome isn't, so they survived the Breath item purge while Tomes didn't.

Understood, thanks for letting me know :)

I was hoping for a diadem, but the tome will have to do :)
