Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) As the thread says I am auctioning off 6 HotA statues from the Chaos server. Each HotA statue will have its own auction.Incase some of you may not know what a HotA statue is, or where they come from allow me to explain. On the Chaos server there is an event ever day and a half. Upon winning the event you are given a HotA statue as a reward. These statues are (usually) 90 or more ql and emit very good color. There are many different HotA statue models such as dog, pheasant, lady of the lake, nogump, drake, bear, deer etc etc. These never run out of oil, and can be planted so they cannot be picked up. Each statue weighs 150Kg's. A pre warning - If held in inventory they will decay in quality, however when dropped or planted they do not lose quality or damage.Auction 1:[14:23:43] This statue is the prize of a Hota tournament. Colors: R=232, G=0, B=232. Ql: 90.0, Dam: 0.0.Starting bid: 10sMinimum increment: 1sBuyout: 20sAuction ends: 1st March 8pm GMTBuyout taken - RiskyAuction 2:[14:35:49] This statue is the prize of a Hota tournament. Colors: R=200, G=0, B=0. Ql: 8.5, Dam: 0.0.Starting bid: 10sMinimum increment: 1sBuyout: 40sAuction ends: 1st March 8pm GMTQl is very low on this one, so to transport it you will have to drop it very quickly and pick it up again and repeat in order to make sure it does not decay. Should be easy enough to do.Buyout taken: KazuiAuction 3:[14:41:33] This statue is the prize of a Hota tournament. Colors: R=0, G=94, B=94.

Posted February 26, 2013 Can you change the color of the light on them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) Unfortunately not, they spawn with a certain colour. If, however the colour doesnt suit you im sure i can dig one up with a different colour (same model). Edited February 26, 2013 by Redd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 26, 2013 Oh i forgot to mention these pillars represent the real animals in the game, so their image is subject to change if the real creature ingame changes too. They also have animations the real creatures have too. Pretty cool stuff!All updated so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 26, 2013 Can you get number 4 in blue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 26, 2013 Can you give more info on the decay hits when carrying? Is it like: "1 minute in inventory = 1ql loss" ?And does #4 perhaps comes in green? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) We can dig up other coloured statues but they are far more rare because in all his wisdom Rolf made it so that once you've won a certain number of HoTA's it just spews out nothing but Red statues. Everything we win nowadays is always a red statue, one of 10 animals.Pheasant, Bull, Black Bear, Lady of the Lake, Easter Bunny, Dragon hatchling, Nogump, Sol Demon (currently JK character model), Dog and Deer.Imo it should be far more random with the colours and have more variety in the creatures but hey...this is what we got.

Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) regarding decay.. it lost 0.5 ql every twenty seconds. If you are fast you can plant them without losing any ql, but if you got unlucky use 1 more second.. then it will take the ql damage. I recommend carrying them in a cart or ship due to the ql lost.Other benefits of them is they are container, plant-able (so people cant take em), and a massive light source.Bought me a pair of bears and dog earlier and not regretting it, they are so lovely! Albeit expensive for respawnable items xP ... Edited February 27, 2013 by rosedragon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) · Hidden by Enki, February 27, 2013 - under investigation Hidden by Enki, February 27, 2013 - under investigation We looted them on a raid. There's nothing suspect about it, not to mention the fact that most were won by us anyway. It's called pvp.On the off chance Kraegar's malicious accusations somehow lead to any statues being taken (it was his deed they were taken from) we will gladly replace the statue with one of our own as we have many in stock.
