High Noon
  • New Mission: Complete Asciing for Trouble alert 5 times. Awards Override Loyal sidekick.
  • Increased amount of event currency you get from the open mission, but it now diminishes after completing it 3 times in a day on a character.

  • Steampunk Hat, Belt, Holsters, Western Rifle, Spurs and Revolver costumes.
  • Whistle Aura and Whistle Emote.
  • Ascii mods.



Cowboy Robots
  • Changed the look of the weapons Cowboy Robots use.

  • Fixed a bug with enemy spawns in the Ascii Oakley Grab alert.
  • Ascii Oakley can now drop the Robo Curls costume.

    But yeah, its an interesting idea to have Asciing for Trouble as an Alert while the event is running considering that the OM is disable during the event. This could be a neat farming alternate when the OM dies down and there isn't many players running around to do the OM. The second wave Gunslinger take a while to spawn and that might be an issue since the alert is a time limited alert. I assume this was meant to prevent the players from being overwhelm by the Gunslingers all at once.

    The timer was removed for the gunslinger portion. They will spawn once a wave is defeated.

    The open mission is normally doable solo, maybe duo for level 18s leveling in the area, so a full alert team of 5 will probably steamroll it unless the critters get an upgrade.

    Will the emotes and transformation be added back to the store, or are they now available as drops only?

    Did they remove the emotes from the event store? There's no patch note about it, only that they're available as drops from the open mission (which has always been true for event emotes). Really hope that's not changing!

    They aren't sold in the event store on PTS currently.
