Probably the coolest event I've seen in this game yet, because for once you have to actually really earn it. I'm curious though, does PWI have any way to detect scripts/bots being used? Because if not then I can already tell you who is going to win the competition :/

    Cube of Fate can be run only once a day unless you happen to have a stack of those letters put back somewhere or are in luminance, if I remember right and its luminence where you can get an extra letter? Unless of course, they changed it, I havn't been inside the cube in ages.

    those can be a slight and the run rewards would be nice

    Just going by how many times rewards have been giving out to people cheating in the past I'll go with a no.

    its nowhere clearly stated, but i assume the char that finished the run the most times will win?

    Well unless you're in another order or have the letters backsaved and just did one everyday with the badge for 30 days (say 30 days xD) then there would be a good 50+ people that would have 1st place....sooooooooooo yea....

    BONUS

    This instance drops an item called The Past of Frostcovered City

    A shop will be collecting these on each server!



    Was wondering where this said shop is located? Atleast on Twilight Temple server theres no shop buying the items.

    Oh you're right! :D I just saw that the cube one starts on 1st so I assumed FCC starts on 1st too. ​​

    How is the cube run calculated? When does the timer start? Entering the cube? Taking the quest for first room? Is there some sort of special quest we need to take in order to qualify, which then will be tracked determining how long our run takes?

    did you even read the event? o_O

    Cube of Fate Run Rules

    For your runs to count, you MUST reach Room 50 at complete the quest there.
    Running the extra rooms after Room 50 will not be accounted for.
    Players whose historical level is 40+ can participate in this run!
    Placing is globally determined – there will be no individual prizing for each server.


    Events not about doing it the fastest its about getting it done as many times as possible.

    Well thats just absolutely idiotic way of doing it if thats the case. Ppl who do cube regularly for whatever reason have several days of a headstart, granted it only gets you so far. Or I should say, I got better things to do than run cube hundred(s) of times in 10 days when there is no guarantee on getting what you want. Like sure, I could make profit out of cube that way if I were to win with couple hundred runs but I really got better things to do.
