Lokust Event!
The Agonian Lokust is one of the most fascinating insect on the island. It is a hermaphrodite, hardshelled, 4-legged creature with dorsal spines and a pair of deadly front mandibules. But their most interesting feature is not related to their morphology but to their behavior. They are solitary insects during the major part of their life cycle, but once a year, when the days start to shorten, they become more abundant and change their behaviour and habits, becoming gregarious. This part of the cycle is called the swarming phase.
Thousands and thousands of lokusts will group together and swarm over the fields and crops, eating every vegetable bits on their way. Their growth during that phase is spectacular.
The younglings are as big a rat, and not much more dangerous than one either. But in a matter of days, some Locusts can reach the size of a bull and become deadly invaders.

The Rules
- The event starts Wednesday 29 July early afternoon server time (between 2 and 4pm)
- The map will be instantly covered with Lokusts everywhere
- The lokusts will give very high XP
- At the beginning they are very weak, with low health and low damage (a newly created character can kill them easily)
- As time increases, they get bigger, more dangerous and their XP also increases significantly
- Rewards (leadership XP, relics, gold) will be given to all participants (10% penalty for Nuruks). Obviously the higher you are in the ranking and the better the reward. #1 will get a T4 weapon of his/her choice like last year.
