Is it possible to get the required 2000 contribution points just by teleporting around the major cities for the entire event, approx 20 minutes, since people kill all the mobs and the tigers so fast, other ways just don't seem to work well.

    I would assume so, but I've never done the run quests for this event. I always just pick herbs.

    Yes you can easily get enough with quest alone. I've actually gotten top five in class on both my cleric and psychic that way.

    Well...

    More realistically, I'm usually between 7th and 18th place.

    Lucky for arcane classes...

    Not sure you'll be able to dig enough to get top 20 if you're melee class b:sweat

    He/she means that there are a lot more melee classes, and a lot more strong ones at that, than there are magic classes. You've gotta be a pretty good DD to get in top 20 for a melee class (except for maybe barbs, even though claw barbs are semi common) than you do as a magic user; therefore, a magic user can afford to dig because their competition isn't racking up crazy amounts of cont by killing mobs/bosses.

    Yes, that's what she meant. Usually top 20 for melee classes on HT range from 25k~7k points while top 20 overall is 10k+. Top 20 for arcane classes are like... 10k~4k. They do fine on the mob killing part but fall behind on bosses.

    Haven't done digging so I'm not sure how many points you get from each, but I think you really would have to get lucky to get enough done to compete with those numbers, although 2k sounds reasonable.

    (Side note, I remember meeting your archer waaaay back on my veno doing quests near tusk town, when you told me diskoteka was same in spanish when I thought it was russian).

    Barbs can't really compete now either. The top 12 for Barbs, exception of 1 guy, are claw Barbs now.

    Barbs and Lvl 90 and lower dont stand a chance in such Events.
    No matter how hard you try.
    I never get into the best 10 and I can do what I want <.<
