The Wrath of Calypso.

The Wrath of Calypso. ​

The Wrath of Calypso - from 23th February until 3rd March, 2016

The Wrath of Calypso features the following:

• New Homer ship design
• New Oculus pet
• New Event Quests and Questgiver
• Pets and Designs from previous Wrath of Calypso Event`s available in the black market​

​

The event will start at 12 noon (local server time) on 23th February and end at noon of the 3rd March (local server time). The Black Market will be open until the end of the day (LST) on 6th March.


During the Wrath of Calypso you will find three event NPCs on the Sea Chart the whole time; Penelope, Odysseus and Telemachos. The Penelope NPC can be shot with gold ammo and will sail over all PvP (2-20) maps. When she gets killed a special Lost Love zone will spawn where she dies. If you manage to lure the Odysseus NPC into this zone you will make a lot more damage against him, making him much easier to kill! Against Odysseus and Telemachos you need to use pearl ammo.

Heartbreaker Ammo will cause much more damage against all Event NPCs.


You are also able to create your own Lost Love zone which works in the same way as the one Penelope drops. You can buy the Lost Love zone as an item in the Black Market. It can be used on all NPCs except Admiral NPCs, Guild Towers and monsters.

During the first part of the event from 23th February 12 noon (LST) to 27th February, 12 noon (LST) Sirens will appear on the PvP maps. They can cast a special Sirens Singing zone which will make any player standing inside it “Infatuated”! This Infatuated debuff causes you to temporarily lose control of your ship and move around randomly for 10 seconds. Although you can’t shoot whilst being infatuated, you are able to use all of your Action Items.

As soon as the Infatuated debuff is triggered by any player, the Sirens Singing zone will disappear for a short period of time. After a certain time or as her health goes down the zone will get triggered again, eventually getting bigger until it is finally too big for even the most far reaching cannons to shoot! Therefore, one player must sacrifice himself and sail into the zone which will cause it to temporarily disappear. If several players are standing inside the Sirens Singing zone when it is activated they will all get Infatuated! You can use the Unstoppable Action Item to break free from this infatuation.

During the second part of the event, from 27th February, 12 noon (LST) until 3rd March, 12 noon (LST) Calypso will spawn to avenge the death of her beloved Odysseus! When an Odysseus NPC gets sunk there is a 5% chance that his death will result in Calypso spawning. Calypso has a huge amount of hit points and will be accompanied by 4 Tentacles! These Tentacles can be shot with gold ammo but will keep respawning as Calypso’s hit points get reduced. As soon as Calypso has been sunk, all remaining Tentacles will despawn. To fight against Calypso you need to use pearl ammo.

Depending on how much damage you cause against Penelope you will be rewarded with Cursed Souls and Heartbreaker Ammo. However, you must make at least 20% damage in order to qualify to get any reward.


The rewards from Odysseus are Radiant Souls and Crystals and are also shared depending on how much damage you make.


Depending on how much damage you cause against Telemachos you will be rewarded with Crystals and Cursed Souls.


The rewards from the Sirens are Pearls and Radiant Souls depending on how much damage you make but you have to cause at least 5% damage against the Sirens to get the souls.

The Tentacle’s give items such as Crystals, a 60 pounder level 1, mojos and heartbreaker ammo to the player who makes the last shot to sink it.

Finally, the Calypso drops pearls which are shared depending on how much damage you make against it. Additionally the player who caused the most damage will receive 1 Level 12 gem.

All NPCs also give some Experience Points as a reward.

You can accept a Quest chain by visiting Nikolaos in the safe harbours.

During the whole Event you will also notice the Oracle of Delphi on map.

To destroy an Oracle of Delphi you must use harpoons.


They contain various items including Heartbreaker Ammo, Crystals, Harpoons Level 4, Seer’s Vision, Hailstorms, 60 Pounder Cannon or a gem!​

The Event Treasure Chests contain various items including Heartbreaker Ammo, the Lost Love Action Item and crystals. Upon opening an Event Chest, you are also guaranteed to get either one Cursed or Radiant Soul.

Cursed and Radiant Souls can be used to purchase items in the Black Market!
