News, Updates & Events

The Imperial Federal Navy (IFN) have intercepted communications from within the Smuggler ranks that indicate that they once again are working on their “enraged project”. So they are calling for all colonists to prepare for the awakening that the IFN predicts to appear at a similar period as previously seen.

Start: July 19, 15:00 UTC

End: August 25, 23:59 UTC

Details: Underground and Arkadia Moon tax rate is lowered to only 3% during the event. 8 Coins is tax free and no more land area borders.

On the vast expanse of the 8 Coins area on Planet Arkadia, the troubling situation with Smugglers “enraged project” continues. Intel suggests that after previous successful experiments that led to the enraged Scoria and Teladon, they have expanded the project to also include the normally peaceful Monura.

The IFN is once more requiring that the colonists form a courageous task force, ready to restore peace to the 8 Coins area in case of a repeat of previously seen unnatural wrath unleashed from the once noble creatures.

From previous encounters we request you to prepare yourself for ferocious battles. So make sure you have prepared yourself with both the required gear and mindset you will need in these encounters, and set up a network of suppliers for any unforeseen equipment you might require.

To help facilitate the requirement for increased demand of equipment to keep the creatures from spreading the IFN have requested that the taxes in the Underground and on the Moon be lowered, which has been granted so the taxes will be set to only 3% during the entire threat from these enraged specimens.

The recent introduction of two new coins, the 8 Coins Gold and 8 Coins Silver coins, in the 8 Coins area may have caught the attention of some of you.

This development coincides with the transformation of the 8 Coins HQ into the central hub of the entire 8 Coins area, along with the elimination of taxed land areas. The area has been revamped, featuring a spacious administrative building and a delightful park in its vicinity. Additionally, there are estates available for Arkadians to acquire, comprising 16 shop estates and 32 apartments in total.

To obtain one of these estates, you’ll need to collect 888 (eight hundred eighty-eight) pieces of Gold coins for a shop deed and 888 pieces of Silver coins for an apartment deed. These coins can be acquired by defeating unique 8 Coins creatures or through Treasure Hunting across the Arkadian territories.

Wrath Unleashed – Roar of the 8 coins

From 21 July to 17 September on 8 coins LA’s on Arkadia with 0% tax during the event.

In the vast expanse of the 8 Coins area on Planet Arkadia, a troubling situation unfolded.

Unbeknownst to the colonists, the notorious Smugglers of Arkadia had meddled with the delicate balance of nature, altering the behavior of two formidable creatures: the Scoria and the Teladon. These once-stoic beings had become monstrously aggressive, attacking anything that dared to move within their vicinity.

News of the escalating threat quickly spread throughout Arkadia, raising alarm and concern among the colonists. It was clear that urgent action was needed to prevent further chaos and safeguard the lives of both humans and native creatures. A call echoed across the planet, summoning brave souls from all walks of life to rally together and face this unprecedented challenge.

Colonists, hunters, and adventurers from far and wide answered the call, uniting under a common purpose. They formed a courageous task force, pledging to restore peace to the 8 Coins area and find a solution to the altered behavior of these once noble creatures. Armed with determination, weapons, and their unwavering spirit, they set forth to confront the enraged Scoria and Teladon.

Days turned into weeks as the brave colonists ventured deep into the heart of the affected region. Battles were fought with ferocious intensity, as the Scoria and Teladon unleashed their newfound aggression upon the valiant defenders. The colonists fought tooth and nail, employing their skills and expertise to subdue the raging creatures and protect one another.

Despite the hardships faced, the unity among the colonists remained unyielding. They established temporary camps, sharing resources and knowledge, strategizing and refining their approach. Scientists and researchers worked tirelessly, studying the altered creatures, seeking clues to reverse the effects inflicted upon them by the Smugglers.

Slowly but steadily, progress was made. Observations and data revealed the subtle changes the smugglers had implemented, offering glimpses of a possible antidote to restore the creatures’ original temperaments. Meanwhile, the colonists continued to defend the area, ensuring the safety of all who ventured nearby.

Word spread across Arkadia of the courageous efforts taking place in the 8 Coins area.

Inspired by the colonists’ resilience and determination, more individuals flocked to aid in the cause. Their combined strength and unwavering resolve created a beacon of hope, illuminating the path to a brighter future.

Enraged Scoria a creature of fiery origins,was once a formidable entity roaming the land. However, the sinister hand of the Smugglers of Arkadia has tampered with its behavior, transforming it into a raging force. Its once balanced temperament has been completely altered, fueling its relentless fury and untamed aggression.
The creature now possesses an insatiable appetite for destruction, unleashing its blazing wrath upon anyone who crosses its path. Beware the Enraged Scoria , for its altered state makes it an even deadlier threat, driven by an unquenchable rage that knows no bounds.

Good luck everyone and if anyone need any help i am always just a DM away either ingame or on Arkadia Discord. Join Arkadia Discord for updates and news in real time https://discord.gg/wZZAJQWqyz
