Christmas Event

Christmas event

Welcome to the first Christmas Event on Buck-Bunker!

During this event, there will be a special currency called Snowbucks
You can use Snowbucks to purchase special items in the Christmas Shop

You can obtain Snowbucks from the advent calendar, prompts, and trading.

Prompts

You can do as many prompts as you want per character during the event. Each character can do each prompt once, if you use a character that has already completed the prompt with another character that has not, only the character that has yet to complete the prompt will receive the loot reward "Santa's Sack".

You earn Santa's Sack per character when completing a prompt. When using a special Christmas pet from the pet carrier you may get additional loot rewards when the character has this pet equipped and is drawn/written with said character. When you have a pet equipped, you may still obtain loot when doing prompts with a character that has already done the prompts as the pet loots are separate. 

Challenge Prompts
Are you brave enough to try out our challenge prompts?

Challenge Prompts are different than the regular event prompts, challenge prompts require a D20 dice roll to determine your success.

Characters have a stat power called 'Christmas Spirit.' All characters are granted 4 Christmas Spirit as a standard. To win a challenge, you will need to roll a 4 or lower. The more characters involved in a challenge, the better the odds.

Challenge Prompts Breakdown:

Essentially, you need to roll lower than the total amount of Christmas Spirit in your party.

EX. you have 1 character in a party = MAX 4 Christmas Spirit. 

the D20 dice rolls a 14. You lose the challenge prompt. 

The max amount of Christmas Spirit = 4 characters in a party = 16 Christmas Spirit. 

The D20 dice can roll a max of 20. Which means with a max party, you have a 16/20 (4/5) chance to win. This is a much better odd than 4/20 (1/5) with one character. 

During a challenge, there is a character cap of 4 per challenge. You may not use someone else's character in a challenge unless they are in your group.

All members of the group must collaborate on the challenge.

You may draw, write, role play, and or a mix of the options for all prompts including challenges.

When successfully passing a challenge prompt each character you own will receive 3 Santa's Sack and 1 Special Antlers

If you lose your challenge prompt, each character you own will receive 1 Santa's Sack

Challenge prompts do not have a limit on how many a character can do.
