You can edit your post you know, rather than posting multiple times in a row.

Just find anything that attacks you to use them. The LRC aka living rock caverns is just one example of a place with monsters, but you could just as well let a chicken peck at you until your portent gets activated, and repeat that 10 times.

I would just like to point out to the people that are saying those with school or work wont be able to get the outfits; Most of the tasks only require a few minutes of your time. The tasks have minimal skill requirements and are just silly things for us to do. I'll bet the most time consuming task that will be released will take no more than 10 minutes. It shouldn't be too hard to log in and complete the daily task. Even so, they made a special reward for a reason. It's an accomplishment to get all 30, regardless of the level of difficulty on the tasks.

I am all for this update, I think it's a great way to get players doing fun and random things!

So what's the deal with the Golden suit? Do we get it from doing 30 days without missing one or do we get it from being in the top 1k in the hi-scores? Either or? The video BTS for it said that you'd need hi-scores, yet both the front page news along with this is saying you get it from doing the 30 days, then in game it's saying the 30 days is just the shield override and 35k LP.

I have no problem with needing to do 30 challenges for the reward. MY problem is I'm going away on holiday for some of the time. I have a desktop computer so cannot take it with me and I don't trust other computers/internet connection to be secure. I value my account too much to do that. As I cannot play all day I probably also have no chance of being in the top 1k players for the special challenges.
I'm very sad about being excluded from the ability to get the golden suit. :( :(

edit: I used the portents at the battle of Lumby with no problem and I'm maxed combat. If one is used but your lp are below half afterwards you need to get them back to over 50% before another portent can be triggered.

I think that something like this is definitely better than "anyone who's a member for these 2 months gets a free 1m xp", but I think this is a little too far in the opposite extreme. I'm not going to start screaming or demanding that it be changed, but I think that requiring participation every single day is too much. For example, any observant Jews will find it impossible to achieve the full rewards, because Rosh HaShana (the Jewish New Year) is a 2-day (49 hour) holiday, from sundown until nightfall 49 hours later, and this year, because it's Thursday and Friday, it leads into Saturday, meaning that effectively it's a 73 hour Sabbath. Now, normally with the Sabbath one could log in Friday morning or afternoon, and then Saturday night, still being within the "every day", because the game operates from midnight (3 AM in Israel) to midnight. With the 3-day Sabbath due to the new year starting on Thursday, it becomes impossible for me and others to participate fully. Now, I understand that we're probably a small minority of players, but I'm sure I'm not the only one -- and there are plenty of other reasons that other people may have for being unable to play every single day, through no fault of their own and with no choice in the matter. I realize that this will most likely have no effect and nothing will change, but I, for one, am disappointed.

I fit into the "you choose to limit yourself" section of the players for the way i play.
So ill be trying my hardest to get all 30 challenges done without gaining certain exp:/ hoping theres no "kill this" challenge.

I completely agree with what a few have said before though in do not award loyalty points for this promotion. The lp is just for being a member.
Previous promotions for lp were for just logging in on the day,thats understandable.
People shouldnt have to do any special challenges for showing loyalty.
Thats what all these exp items and special cosmetics are for.

Cut the lp out and leave it the way it was is my opinion to summarise.
