Good news for next weeks Labyrinth farming

Hi all,

You’ve probably noticed that the champions in the labyrinth haven’t felt as challenging this year as they did in previous years. The only actual change to them was a bug fix to the lich to keep him from summoning unlimited minions at high event scaling. But they all felt easier because they hadn’t kept up with the power growth of the player base. We gave them all quick buffs today.

Additionally, with this map being as profitable as it is, a lot of players have started triggering diminishing rewards. That’s just not cool. So we disabled diminishing rewards on this map.

Hi, All!

I suck at literature (both writing and reading) so I challenge myself to PSDH Pumpkin Carving Competition. Here how it turned out...

[Mr_Dark]

Oh! Very cool!

In case you missed the murder mystery or just want to know what our character information was. Here is it, the first PSDH murder mystery. Let us know what you think about or how we can make it better.

Murder Mystery

Scenario
At the end of the costume contest Dark goes to the guild bank to get prizes. Suddenly, we hear a loud scream and Dark will fall of the cliff above the costume contest and dies. Guildies need to find 4 clues; the Murderer, the Murder Weapon, Execution of the Murder and the Motive.

Characters
- Shiroiki Mei
- Nova Lelie
- Elnora Sunbane
- Marithia Redwood
- Cadavez
- Rediarel
- Ardi Veftvohl
- Darkward

Shiroiki Mei
- Found a weird naked doll with Cat Ears and Butterfly Wings.
- Has been up all night baking his cake for the competition. Got interrupted by Dark showing up and acting strange, rambling about trying to clear his mind. Offered him a talk when suddenly heard weird noises outside, told Dark to wait and he went to check on his moa chicks because he was scared of predators. Went outside but his chickens were fine. Came back to find his cake destroyed and Dark missing. Had to re bake the cake.
- Complains about the Guild Hall being a mess with all the sand. It's getting worse and he feels he's the only one cleaning it.
- Shiroiki missed the contest because he was finishing his cake. Does not know Dark has died. Still busy with the last bits of his cake.
- If people ask more questions (/sad /cry) worrying about Dark and the cake.


Nova Lelie
- The voodoo doll found is Nova's, she was wanting to use it to look good on Halloween, but it has been missing.
- Why is dead Dark covered in cake? (say this just after he fell to his death then /cry)
- Had a talk with Gem and Red and learned that Dark has also been acting strange towards Red. Dark asked Red to become SW comm for thursdays evenings CF instead of rotation. Because everyone knows Red likes loot. Red found this weird cause he always mocks the SW chestfarm. Besides he raids wvw on that day.
- Is in a bad mood because she had a fight with Dark and Gem the night before about the PSDH schedule. And now this interruption on the festivities, she had been planning this with Ardi for weeks.
- If people ask more questions start stressing, crying (/cry /sad) and repeating.

Elnora Sunbane
- Has stolen a voodoo doll from Nova to pull a prank but fell asleep. When he woke up he noticed that the doll was gone.
- His room was very dirty when he woke up. (if he really gets pressed about this, he can say he can't really tell exactly, but he was sure he swiped the floor).
- Was meant to help Gem with her cake but send a raven to say he was sick.
- Simon gets a stomach ache when he sees Dark (he's been having the flu, caught it from Nova) so he runs away as soon as he notices that Dark has died and returns a few minutes later looking shifty and upset.
- If people ask more questions do not answer, instead get slightly hostile (/threathen /facepalm /crossarms) and repeat.

Marithia Redwood
- Gem is at a waterfall. She’s washing off cake. Claims to have been cooking till late, Simon was supposed to help but never showed, got no raven message.
- Had a fight with Dark and Nova because Dark wanted to change the schedule.
- Had a talk with Red and Nova and learned that Dark has also been acting strange towards Red. Dark asked Red to become SW comm for thursdays evenings CF instead of rotation. Because everyone knows Red likes loot. Red found this weird cause he always mocks the SW chestfarm. Besides he raids wvw on that day.
- Gem saw Ardi running into some garbage cans making noise, didn’t think much of it, he does more weird stuff. Talked to Ardi for a while about the JP in Gendarran Fields. Then both went their ways. Gem went to bake cake. This is a lie.
- Gem has seen Ardi when she was lurking around Shiroiki’s house. They said hi, but then both went their ways. Then Gem heard the noise and heard Shiroiki go outside. Is secretly jealous of Shiroiki and took her chance to destroy his cake before she went home and bake her cake for the competition.
- If people ask more questions start (mildly) swearing, crying (/cry) and i told you all I know.
- If confronted with the inconsistency in the story be vague, if confronted again. Admit you didn’t talk to Ardi you just said hi and destroyed Shiroiki’s cake.

Cadavez
- Is very adamant about that the leaders and commanders should be a bit stricter. They are just being strange. Nova, Gem and Red seem stressed. Also it looks like they are hiding something, Dark throws himself of a cliff. Then just the others having some strange behaviours.
- Has seen Shiroiki talking to a weird doll earlier. Simon has been disappearing constantly and Ardi has been practising his JP skills in the weirdest places. Also, it's messy everywhere.
- When asked more: First the people who rent a house make everything dirty and now there is a ton of sand in the Guild Hall. When asked about people renting a house Cada explains that Ardi rents a house in the Silverwastes and that he has been turning it into a mess.
- When people ask too many questions Cada gets angry and tells people that it’s better to find out why Dark would jump off a cliff… uh fell off a cliff. The Dark he knows would never do that. (/sad)

Rediarel
Will not be at the murder scene. If people come to him for questions he will say he wasn’t there, but he told Gem and Nova all. He is sad but busy.
Knows Nova, Gem and Dark had a fight on wednesday. Has a talk with Nova and Gem on thursday.

Ardi Veftvohl
- Has seen Simon with a weird doll.
- Was practicing JP skills made accidental noise, ran into Gem talked about JP in Ember Bay. This is a lie.
- Made a loud distraction by killing a convenient close by raven (with message from Simon). Went to snatch Dark from Shiroiki. Ran into Gem beforehand, said hi. 
- If people ask more questions start incriminating Simon and Gem. Then ask if they want to come for CF on saturday. Then go /sad.
- If confronted with inconsistency in his chat with Gem say you don’t remember well since focus was on JP and try to change subject. Then go /sad.
- Turned Dark into a Zombie and tries to use Dark to get Gem, Red and Nova to schedule more Chest Farm days. They were not convinced and were planning to have a meeting the next day to discuss what was wrong with Dark. Ardi tried to convince Gem and Nova once more. But on his way he lost control over Dark and - Dark went to Shiroiki for help. Ardi was afraid of being revealed and him losing control over Dark so he decided to kill him.

Darkward
- Deadman
- Was still covered in cake from helping Shiroiki because he’s a zombie.
- If people ask questions say you took the answer to your grave or something.

Murderer: Ardi Veftvohl
Murder weapon: Voodoo doll Malice
