Valentine's Day Event 2007
File:Badge Anniversary Pocket D.png
Overview
In order to cellebrate the one year anniversary of Pocket D, DJ Zero has recreated last year's Valentine event.
Stage One
Two mission contacts, Ganymede and Scratch, are added to the new Pocket D club. Ganymede assigns missions to heroes, and Scratch to villains. Upon completing missions for both contacts, a third mission contact, DJ Zero was unlocked.
As it was last year, both contacts give out a two-mission arc. Both arcs require you to bring along at least one teammate from the opposing faction to get to the end-reward. The first mission of the arc can be soloed, but you must have an opposing faction teammate to complete the second mission of the arc (only the opposing faction teammate can target and destroy the last object).
You must be in the final mission of both arcs long enough to get credit for completing those two missions in order to ding the Handsome(male)/Beautiful(female) badge.
You can only pick up one arc from your one contact. In order to do the other arc, you will need to get invited to an opposing faction team, or, invite an opposing faction teammate into your team and have that person pick up the mission.
Ganymede (Hero Contact)
- Mission 1 - Defeat-all, Council Base, click computers (on solo and Heroic, it's only 21 foes).
- Mission 2 - Arachnos Base - Find key, destroy box. (Key is within a hall or two of the locked elevator with a named boss, go to locked door and work backwards to find key)
Scratch (Villain Contact)
- Mission 1 - Defeat CoT leader and posse, Oranbegan Map (not multileveled), can be stealthed to the boss battle.
- Mission 2 - Arachnos Base - Find key, destroy cauldron. (Key is within a hall or two of the locked elevator with a named boss, go to locked door and work backwards to find key)
Female Heroes and Villains who completed the second mission from both Ganymede and Scratch received the Beautiful Badge
Male Heroes and Villains who completed the second mission from both Ganymede and Scratch received the Handsome Badge
Stage Two
DJ Zero will send players on a mission to prevent Snaptooth from destroying a dimensional portal. This is exactly the same mission as last year, except with a new reward pop-up menu upon completion.
Reward choices:
- Toga
- Victory Laurel and Hellenic Sandals
- Heart of Light Badge/Heart of Darkness Badge
- Partygoer Badge
- Heart Pattern (No longer female only)
Strategies for Snaptooth and difficult missions:
- Like all regular missions, the level of the foes of all these missions are set according to the mission-holder's level (not the team leader's or the highest level teammate's level) and the mission holder's difficulty. So, for example, a level 2 toon can pick up a level 2 mission that can then be blown away with ease by a level 50. No xp, but all involved do get the badge. Pointing this out is not a invitation to be nerfed, it's how all missions work. Any level 2 character in Atlas Park can invite a 50 into a mission to wipe it out with no xp, but with credit for badges if there are any.
- If you defeat Boss Level Snaptooth and run out of his aggro range while the EB level Snaptooth is spawning, then the EB level Snaptooth just sits there doing nothing giving you time to wipe out all the waves or Red Caps which are aggro'd onto you. Try leaving the mission and coming back to see if you can lose their aggro.
- If you have the damage capability, you can kill Snaptooth the three times over before the first wave of helpers even show up. But, if you take your time with Snaptooth, the waves will build up and overwhelm you.
- The waves are aggro'd onto team members. If you leave a lowbie by the entrance, the lowbie will get a visit from Red Caps, too!
- A solo squishy player on lowest difficulty hovering over Snaptooth with a tray of half defense, half damage inspirations is golden.
- Snaptooth spawns up on the airfield near the tower.
- Remember, while you can have teammates of the opposing faction help you with Snaptooth, the mixed team is only necessary for the second missions of Ganymede and Scratch.
- Unlike last year where you were limited to picking up the Snaptooth mission from DJ Zero only 5 times, this year, you can keep getting the mission from DJ Zero indefinitely.
Costume Parts
Dimension Drop Powers
The event store contacts, Chilly and Dram, sell special temporary powers called Dimension Drop powers. These powers increase your teammate's damage, defense, or buff their hit points and endurance, but if used on one's traditional enemy (heroes on villains or villains on heroes), the power had a significantly greater effect. Chilly sells these temporary powers to heroes, and Dram to villains.
