    Love that Quandary is back and looking forward to some more of her puzzles.

    Interesting that anniversary is starting on the 3rd because the PvP season won't be ended by then.

    If it's a repeat of last year, the month-long anniversary celebrations started at the beginning of October, halfway into the current season, and continued through the 1st half of the next season. The next season, after the Power Stone Season of September 2023, was named Anniversary Season.

    Sweet! I thoroughly enjoyed Quandary the last time around. I still have my notes to complete the puzzles too. Should come in handy since it's probably gonna be a re-skin like the new dp vs mpq.

    I missed this Quandary last time, do you have your notes posted in the forum or will you post them if not? I'm a cool dude who loves rewards. B)

    Some interesting things in the link there.

    "A new LIMITED-TIME ANNIVERSARY PASS makes its introduction to reward players for joining in on the celebrations. By defeating event quests and the zombie menace invading MPQ, players earn Season XP (SXP) to climb the ranks of this new feature and earn covers, costumes, and much more!" - curious what exactly this is going to be.

    "LOGIN REWARDS
    By firing up MPQ during the anniversary, all players will receive a cover for 2-Star Headpool (UndHead) & 3-Star Jubilee (Vampire)."

    I wonder if we'll get some sweet Halloween characters like Lilith (mother of demons) or Frankencastle? Or finally Werewolf by Night?

    Don't believe that I posted them, but I know for sure they're posted on here somewhere. Either way, when the time comes I'll definitely repost what I have, and I'm sure I won't be the only one. Now I gotta go actually read whats in the link because @ThaRoadWarrior post really got my attention.

    What your seeing more and more games do this (or I'm just finding them lol)

    Free
    Level 1. 100 iso
    Level 2. 10 hp
    Level 3. 1cp

    Buy pass

    Level 1. 2000 iso
    Level 2. 25 hp
    Level 3. 3 cp

    And so on

    Would not shock me to see a buy seasonal pass. Now or in the future

    I think their VIP is their "season pass" at least for now and even though it's always the same thing plus a different costume.

    If they had a good season pass and the value was right, I'd probably get it. Sounds like I'll probably getting the Anniversary Pass also since Anniversary is usually one of the years best value. I'm sure not gonna bet that it's free though! Marketing 101, if it's free, you'll know it's free, usually accompanied by giant text that says "FREE!!!" and "pass" usually means you gotta buy it.

    I love the positive mindset though!

    Love to see a real season pass come to this game. It's been awhile since put cash into this game . I don't think vip is worth 10 per month (though need to relook at what you get) there is snap that I keep tossing them 10 each month that I would love to give this game if they had something I wanted and though was worth it

    It's interesting they say it's "all new" PVE for Quandary. So sounds like they aren't running the same one (Boss/Heroic) as last year.

    And to that I say thank heavens. I know you, and others, enjoyed it. I thought it was a soulless, mind sucking, unfun, slog.

    SOkun: since you spoiled the 2-star Headpool; can you post his stats early?

    Please answer this question:
    Are any of the other new characters actual zombie characters?

    Is that Exodus or Hyperion in the picture?

    The upcoming new PVE is a more standard one, featuring Quandary doing stuff and characters reacting to it, not the "figure out the rules of the puzzle" style. More bashy bashy, less thinky thinky. It is not a reskin. The boss event is currently slated to be unrelated to Quandary altogether.

    This makes me very, very, very happy. Thank you!
