Event Guide: H2k11 pt1


 * All the text here is from the event, and copied verbatim from Gaia Online. This page shows the How to play Moonrise, from Halloween 2k11: The Masquerade.

Battle
To participate in the fight between werewolves and humans, you must either post in Labtech Gene's thread or join the fight at the Masquerade ball.

Skills
Every couple of levels you will be able to select a new ability. New abilities will be unlocked as you progress. You [i]will not[/i] be able to collect all the abilities before hitting the level cap, so please choose them wisely. In addition to normal leveling, each ability will increase in level as it is used. The level of your abilities influences the amount of damage the attack will deal, the higher the ability's level the greater the bonus.

Add friends
Adding people to your posse or pack increases the bonus to your attacks. The amount of the bonus is based on total number of people you've added and how active they are in the event.

Invite Friends
Having trouble getting that last alchemy component? Then invite a friend not already playing in the event. If he or she accepts, you'll be granted it for free plus your friend will net 1000 gold.

Healing
You can only heal in your team's forum, in this forum the health of all players is visible beneath their usernames. Assuming you are not dead and have a healing ability, you will be able to heal other members of your team. If the unfortunate has occurred, others with healing abilities will be able to heal you. You can also gain health by posting in your teams forum. Human base forum Wolf base forum

Energy
Need more energy to make that attack or heal? Post in the main event forum; doing so replenishes your energy so you can stay in the fight.

Death
Should you die, you will be immune from attacks for a short duration of time, but you'll lose this immunity if you attack or heal someone before the time expires.

Change Sides
It's possible to change sides once an hour through fighting in the Masquerade flash space, and there is a 50/50 chance of changing teams upon being killed... Highly skilled players may also change your team at anytime with special abilities.

Additional Gameplay Notes

 * The Masquerade flash space is its own mini-game. Losing health or dying in the Masquerade space will not subtract health or kill you in the forum battle. The only tie it has with the forum battle is that when you die in the Masquerade battle you have a 50/50 chance of changing teams once an hour from your last team change.
 * The leader-board on the event page updates once an hour.
 * Can't seem to attack anyone on the opposite team? Make sure you're not dead! If you are you won't see the attack or heal buttons.
 * When a player dies they will be "protected" for a short period of time. (currently approx. 15 minutes) When in this state you will not be able to attack them until either time expires or they attack someone. Protected players will have the title "Protected" in the battle forum.
