Aether Races Today!
Win titles and mounts in the final "12 Days of Velious" promotion.
Join your friends and guildies in the Aether Races today! Dave "Smokejumper" Georgeson posted this announcement on the official forums:
Race course signup NPCs are close enough to globe or wizard spire zone-in positions that *any* level of character can participate in these races, despite the courses being set in zones that are normally too difficult for some folks.
Prizes include:
- Cool new titles that show how awesome you are at racing.
- The ability to toodle around the zone in the racer that you used...as long as you beat the course time when racing. (This goes away when you zone or log out.)
- A new mount to use after you complete the Velious flying mount quests! (This is a permanent object and can be used after you complete the Gryphon quests in Velious.)Cool new titles that show how awesome you are at racing.
This event is scheduled to start at 10am Pacific today, March 1, and is for today only (although there's a possibility it might become part of Tinkerfest)! Aerial race tracks are erected near the entrance to Butcherblock (the most hazardous course), Tenebrous Tangle (the longest course) and Lavastorm (the course that requires the most finesse). Find the gnome next the huge scoreboard, and talk to him to start the quest. Then just step on the teleport pad and you'll be warped to the starting line!
