Ossuary 4 Reclamation - Begins Saturday, Feb 15th

[Expo]

The Ossuary 4 Reclamation Event will go live on Saturday, Feb. 15th and ends when enough Ossuary Artifacts have been appraised!

Due to his work with the Cavernam Expedition, Arthus, the newly appointed Historical Preservation Officer of the Cambria Archaeological Society, has been tasked with uncovering the mysteries that have arisen during the Ossuary Campaign. He will need the assistance of players to discover and decipher the secrets of the Ossuary...

On the other hand, players can decide that the depths of the Ossuary should not be tampered with, given the nature of what has occurred during the Ossuary Campaign, and stop research towards it by killing the players assisting the Cambria Archaeological Society! The outcome is completely dynamic and dependent on the Outlanders decisions!

It got XP gain!

That it did, and the pumped up respawn rates are fantastic there, even though there were tons of people in the dungeon, while you sometimes had to move around, and wait at times, there was always tons of mobs popping - even at times getting overwhelmed. I know I stated it in discord, would love to see these respawn rates kept in other level 3 dungeons, it really allows for groups to go into a dungeon and have some fun, without clearing it out instantly. You also mentioned you've recommended weekly pumped up spawn rate dungeons, that'd be great too, it'd still give that outlet for groups!
