Harry Potter and the Shardlings of Excelsior

Date & Time: October 28th at 6:30pm CST / 23:30 shard time.
Gear: Provided & equalized
Estimated length: 2.5 hours from initial gate open to rewards.

Important Information:
- Please gather on Moonglow bank roof at least 10mins prior to event start time if you plan to attend.
- The Monster Bash mini-quest will be available for this event, speak to Bertram the Hunter to accept this quest.
- The gate will be opened ~10 minutes prior to event start time and remain open for 10 minutes after start time. At 23:40 shard time, the gate will close and we will allow players to begin gearing up. If you are AFK in the waiting area at 23:40, and do not return by the time everyone else is sorted, you will be removed from the event.
- The gearing system is automated. It will provide you with your gear and a backpack of items and then move you into the main waiting area. Be patient, with many players in the area it can take a little while for the spawner to catch up.
- The gear for this event will be equalized. This means that it will force everyone's stats to the same level, so players who've used +50 stat scrolls will not have any advantage over anyone else.
- If we find you AFK during the fight portion of the event, you will be removed. The same goes for if you are hanging around not fighting or participating. It's OK if you're taking a moment to get resurrected and put your gear back on, but you must participate in the event if you want a reward.
- Hogwarts is being blockaded by Voldemort's Death Eaters in various places. You'll have to kill every mob on each level before the barriers will drop.
- Every level has mini-bosses, which are Voldemort's lieutenants and are more challenging than the trash mobs.

Reward information TBA

Rewards have been redesigned, there will be only one type of snack bag this time, but the bags contain a little something extra :)
