Deewe Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I don't think they've ever explained event properly...well the first one wasn't even acknowledge on this site or the launch until 3 days after it started an a ton of people got screwed over because of the 1-day-only gear pieces. It would be nice if they'd send an in game email to the players. For example would I not lurk the forums I would never had know I had to go to the fleet to get the 3 years anniversary gifts.

AlrikFassbauer Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yesterday I saw something very special : An overheated droid was throwing something ! ( snowballs ? ) at an player's character ! This happened so fast I couldn't really see what exactly he was throwing - but I'm almost sure that he did throw something ! I do know that he was throwing something because the throwing animation contained approx. 1 thing per second ! No cooldown like with an player characters' snow ball ! The player was too fast away so I couldn't interview him - I just couldn't click on his vehicle. I just didn't manage to do it. But - I remember what kind of vehicxle it was : It was a blue or a cyan spehere ! You know, that vehicle from the Gree Event - not a red one ! I know because I have a cyan spehere myself - but I can't tell whether it was a blue one because I don't own a blue one. An d the player was gone too fast. But I still tend to believe that it was a cyan one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mubrak Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yesterday I saw something very special : An overheated droid was throwing something ! ( snowballs ? ) at an player's character ! That's their attack. The droids spawn hostile, and become friendly when you throw a snowball at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlrikFassbauer Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) Hm, okay, thank you ... I had thought that I had found something special ... But in fact I never do ... Everything is cleared before me ... Edited December 23, 2014 by AlrikFassbauer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
branmakmuffin Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) Here is all you need to know: throw snowballs with at least one other player. Doesn't matter if you are in a group or not. Unfounded rumors: you can get an Orobird mount from an overheated droid; you have a better chance if you have an NPC snowball buff on you; you have a better chance if you throw your snowball from your speeder. /thread I don't think they've ever explained event properly...well the first one wasn't even acknowledge on this site or the launch until 3 days after it started an a ton of people got screwed over because of the 1-day-only gear pieces. Yeah, the following BWEA post, as quoted, is so confusing: You mean like this? http://www.swtor.com/info/in-game-events Edited December 23, 2014 by branmakmuffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUXs Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Yeah, the following BWEA post, as quoted, is so confusing: I'm on these forums occasionally and even I have NEVER been to that page...imagine the players who simply avoid the forums. It shouldn't be a secret that there's an event going on or how it works for free stuff...it should be promoted and mentioned IN-GAME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
