[X] My Assistant

The event has now ended! Everyone who handed in at least one full set of spelling errors were awarded an Abstract Wire Sculpture (Tier 8 trophy). Additionally, and even if you didn't hand in a full set, you were also granted one Grammar Nazi Armband (Tier 7 trophy) for every unique spelling error you handed in.

--

A number of spelling errors made it into the live build! Help Snowflake hunt them all down before the game is overrun by undead grammar nazis.

They will drop randomly in battle; drop rates increase with higher difficulties.

The event ends on Monday, April 2nd at 23:59:59 UTC. You should hand in your findings by then to qualify for the event's grand prize.

Give it to Snowflake.

I wonder if anybody ever (accidentally or on purpose) trolled the system by sending the items to Snowflake (user 5) through Moogle Mail

Yes. If you do one of each type you get the grand prize, a T8 trophy. You also get one T7 trophy for each different type of Spelling Error. You only need to shrine each type once.

So the reward for shrining all seven is one T8 trophy and seven T7 trophies, which you get after the end of the event.

that's nice....
I'm sorry, this is my first event ever in HV..

Thank you for the detailed information

It's just me, or easter artifacts stopped dropping? I got 0 after today's 455 rounds of PFUDOR arenas.

I received a normal precursor artifact in a drop, and then was surprised to find out that it was my only one, when I know that I had five in stock just last night and didn’t use them…

I didn't get any earlier today too, but got one just now.

EDIT We're talking like 375 pfudor rounds - no drop. Some people noticed some weirdness with reduced artifact drop rates too (and prices rising could possibly be an indicator too), which could mean there is some magic working in the background and droprate could be dependant on amount of errors you found overall or within a certain time window, fixed or sliding. Or maybe just a combination of luck and negativity bias, yea, probably that.

and didn't even trade them, or did anything similar?

No. I always keep five and then when I get any extras are usually turn them in, so when I just got a drop right before I posted the message above, I went to turn one in and then realize that I only had one instead of six.

Confirm, just got 3 easter artifacts per 1 arena out of 395 PFUDOR arena rounds. Now we need more grindfest farmers on WTT section

Did you hit the space bar repeatedly when you were shrining them? That can wipe you out if you're not paying attention and when one type of item is all shrined it goes on to the next item. The popup message box hides what's going on behind it, too.

Using the space bar on the keyboard to shrine stuff faster has its risks. I wish we could lock things on that page.

Not that I recall, no. In fact I never use the space bar when I shrine. I had 5 yesterday, now, thanks to the drop I got this afternoon, I only have the one. That's why I think it's related to the Easter event as that is the only variable. If there is a log (like your credits log, only for shrining) then I could check and make sure I didn't suddenly have 5 artifacts shrined, but I don't think such a log exists...who can I talk to to fix this?

wow, you're raising ranks pretty fast sir

Not much else to do (aside sending resumes left and right) since I am unemployed from last summer
For years I only battled in Random Encounters and occasionally some Arena (Ring o Blood only onece for each "level")

HVToolbox script have a log for all shrined artifact/trophies and the gift given.

Compered to the first day I had the impression the drop rate was reduced.
On the other hand the precursor artifact drop rates seem the same, to me.
Only Tenboro can really tell.

I guess it's very random. I IWed 240 rounds and got none, but got 5 for about the same rounds in Arena.

before the game is overrun by "undead grammar nazis".

Wait a minute....

Nobody has plagiarized this monster name yet??

No?? Consider it PLAGIARIZED!!

(For the record, this is the second.. also plagiarized from 10b - "Offensively Stupid")

I got a regular Precursor Artifact in the arena a little while ago but the Chaos Tokens seemed to have dried up. I'm having shit luck with the Easter drops.

Yeah, I'm finding it's a little more difficult this year myself.

I was getting a LOT of Spelling Errors in the first 2 days of the event, but now (at least the last 24? hours) I'm barely getting any. I was also getting more PAs than usual before too, though that could just be coincidental.

I'm convinced there's some kind of luck modifier that changes every so often, but I have no empirical data to back that up.

Or maybe 10b noticed too many artifacts were dropping and adjusted the drop rate.

Or maybe it's supposed to be like that, where the drop rate falls as more are dropped.

Whatever has happened, I'm sad now

But I already got way more than I thought I would get so I can't really complain.

Or maybe it's supposed to be like that, where the drop rate falls as more are dropped.

That hasn't happened in the past and I don't see any reason for it to happen this time. I firmly believe these Easter drops are pure luck. You can increase your luck a little by increasing the difficulty and or via training, but at the end of the day it is still luck.

I've only managed to get two total since the event began. ;_;

Awww yis, time to click

FUCK!!! I didn't think the hunt would start this early! Just two days to find all the Easter Eggs Stupid real world, distracting me with things like work and family
