Anniversary Event

From CryGaia Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Eight enormous Golems are spawning across the world, in places where the The Filth corruption is strongest. These monsters are being animated by The Gatekeeper, as one of Gaia's automatic defense mechanisms against the black liquid. In places identified as critically damaged, he enters through the nearest Agartha portal and walks to a particular location to create the Golem.

The Council of Venice has decided that, despite their purpose, these creatures are a danger to the 'secret' nature of the secret world, as well as to the residents of these areas, so members of the secret societies have been authorized to eliminate them.

The Anniversary Event celebrates the launch of The Secret World. It takes place each year around the beginning of July. It encompasses the "Guardians of Gaia," "Anomalies of the Filth," "The Love Generation," and "Corrupted Gatekeeper" events.

Guide

Each zone has a particular Golem associated with it. The related mission for that Golem is obtained while fighting it. Note that there is a 2-hour cooldown for these Golem missions, but each is unique and thus on a separate timer.

To start, the easiest thing to do is join the #Event chat channel "/chat join event". Players will announce Golems spotted in various zones and you can meet-up on them (right-click their name and select "meet up") to enter their zone and help fight the Golem. Many players also use the ShoutOut! mod, which makes the process of announcing a Golem somewhat easier.

When you enter a zone containing one of these bosses, there will be a skull icon on the zone map with the Golem's name next to it. Note that there are physical limitations on the number of players that can enter a specific zone on a particular Dimension, so if after Meeting Up you find yourself in a zone with no skull icon on the map, it is likely because the Dimension with the Golem filled up.

Before a Golem appears in a particular zone, The Gatekeeper spawns at the zone's Agartha entrance. It then walks to the location where the Golem will spawn. Upon arriving, The Gatekeeper will summon the appropriate Golem. Note that The Gatekeeper does not appear on the map as a golden skull, only the Golem does after it is spawned.

Most of the Lore and Achievements related to this event drop from the Golems or are near them. See the individual pages below for details.

Note: Starting in 2016 each Golem now gives tiered rewards depending on the player's contribution - Bronze, Silver, or Gold. The Gold tier reward bag has a chance to drop a corrupted Shard corresponding to the Golem that was killed. These Shards are used to summon the Corrupted Gatekeeper.
