Event Currency & Collectables
LUX
Lux, a small coin fashioned from a Lantern Plant's hardy dried stem, is the preferred currency of the Twilight Carnival. It carries a faint glow along with a scent reminiscent of the produce's savory flavor.
This coin can be exchanged for a variety of event specific items at the Lux Mart shop or saved between events.
Collectables
Spend your lux wisely; each player can only craft one of each Carnival Collectable using the Blueprints available in Lux Mart.
Each Carnival Collectable is needed in order to trade them for the Twilight Carnival Badge. This means that to start, you will only be able to collect either the Badge or the Collection Set, not both! You'll have to return to next year's Twilight Carnival in order to complete the other collection.✨
✨ A special set of collectables are available during the event!
Crafting, & Foraging!
All players will be able to claim free weekly Carnival Gift at the Lux Mart - open them for a chance at rare currency and more!! Additionally, users can use blueprints to craft additional Carnival Gifts! Log in daily to forage and get all items needed to craft them.
Each Carnival Gift always contains:
- 1 Astatine
Each Carnival Gift will also contain 1 of the following:
- 1 Virgule Mushroom, Harvest Fairy or Sugar Drop
- 5 or 10 Lux
- 1 or 2 Astatine
- 1 Orbit
- 1 Large Comet Cluster
Crafting
The Crafting System and Blueprints allow you to assemble your foraged items into bigger, better items using ARC Lab's MAKR Machine. In each Carnival Gift you will find various items, such as limited-time Seasonal Produce, event currency, and everyone's favourite element: Astatine! Start crafting your Carnival Gift and see how luck rewards you!
Blueprints can be purchased the with event currency, Lux, in the Lux Mart shop.
Tool Kit
This small faux-suede pouch contains a few common tools and is useful in either fixing or creating new trinkets. A helpful tool kit is necessary in order to craft several of the Carnival Collectables, and unlike other recipe ingredients, it is not single-use only! You can purchase your own at the Lux Mart.
❗️ We will not be able to restore items for those who use them mistakenly, so please be careful when crafting. ❗️
Returning Seasonal Fruit
Available all month in the Lux Mart!
Virgule Mushroom, Harvest Fairy, and Sugar Drop all make a return!
Users can purchase 1 of each fruit in the Lux Mart. Additional fruits can be won at Jackpot Planet or found in Carnival Gifts!
Event Foraging Location!
To help you find the items you'll need to craft Carnival Gifts and other event items, we have a temporary Foraging location: Autumn Path!
This location only drops items needed for event crafting recipes and activities, as well as a rare chance for Astatine, Orbits and Comet Clusters.
Carnival Gifts, Blueprints, Seasonal Produce, and the Autumn Path location will no longer be available after
Sunday, November 30th AT 11:59 PM EST / 8:59 PM PST
Event Prompts
Participating in these two limited-time prompts to gain Orbits, extra raffle tickets for our Mega Raffle, and other special prizes!
Mask Making
It is said that long ago on the eve of the Reserve’s founding, Alurizans wore long hooded coverings and masks to ward off the Blight’s plague, and their clever disguises are what allowed them to win the war. These days, it's not known if that is truth or legend, but the tradition continues, and many Alurizans sport varying costumes as they navigate the Carnival grounds.
Design a mask for your Xero and write about why they elected to create a mask with that design.
Garden Garland
The Twilight Carnival festivities are about to begin, and once again you find yourself rushing to complete the final preparations to decorate your Carnival stall. Unfortunately, it would seem you have misplaced the final piece you need to complete your decorations: the garland! You quickly scramble the materials together to create a new one. After all, no Carnival decorations are complete without the garland.
Create a garland decoration to celebrate the Twilight Carnival. You may either use the templates provided, or create your own.
Birds' Ballet
Bountiful Harvest
Tilly is calling for donations of Fertilizer to help the produce in ARC Greenhouse grow strong. She's even willing to spare some Lantern Plants and Lux for you!
Mushroom Madness
It is imperative ARC collect mushroom specimens to learn more about these alien mushrooms and the similarities and differences between the invasive and native species and how they are effected.
Each prompt may only be submitted once per user!
