Nice write up, thanks.

I've been working all day and night for the last 2 weeks, to put my work in a good place so I can focus on all this.

I also liked the new story write-up, always like them.

Thanks Pawain. This is really helpful post

You forgot a few things

October 2nd - A certain someone comes here complains how hard begging is to train and that they should make Trick or Treat not use it in the calculation of getting the good items.

October 5th - Same person comes here to complain how Sampires are OP and that they should be able to get 100 drops an hour on their half finished detective character.

November 2nd - Said person comes here to complain how Sampires are OP and that they should be able to get 100 drops an hour on their camping/taste id mule. 

December 2nd - They will post a protracted thread about how difficult and arduous it is to get a star on the tree to ensure a gift, and that said gifts are not indicative of how real the struggle is. and that Krampus is too hard to spawn and the reward should just be in our packs when we log in.

December 4th - This player will come here to complain that we should be able to just log in once to receive all the gifts on one toon and that the gifts should still befit the time it takes to log in each and every character.

At least that's the way I see it . . .

And the way I see it is, I hope those predictions do not come true, and I would not appreciate it if the theme was expanded on. Bad Victim!

So, speculation aside, what are you working on to get ready?

I know, I know. I couldn’t silence the voices in my head this morning. That being said. I have been stocking my vendor at the entrance with a few supplies and making all shiny new weapons and finalizing my template. It appears I’ll be going with the modified Sampire again, unless something drastic happens.

What are the Butcher's stats?  What are they weakest to? Cold?
Also, what about the pumpkin monsters?  Trying to get the most effective weapons together.

Pawain

Butcher is a Demon 

I use my mage.  3 flamestrikes  kills it.
Cu also kills them nicely.
The basic Energy Demon slayer will work as a weapon.
They only have 800s HP, the Strength is only low 200s.
They have Necro, magery, SS.  They use Necro a lot.
They are built for casting.
Revenants, Pain Spike, Corpse Skin and Blood Oath.
Its Damage is 20 phy, 40 Cold, 40 Energy.
Resistances have a small range but are like this.


The named and not named special Skeltons cant be lored.
Very High HP.  Do decent melee damage.
If like the normals. They are undead. Very low in Fire resist. Basic Undead Slayer.

You can not Lore Grimm.
