Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt - Spooky Path

We are finishing up the fantastic journey that was the Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt with one more post showcasing the gifts available on the Spooky Path. We really had a lot of fun on this hunt, not just with exploring the gorgeous sims involved, but with the hunt paths themselves, which are a great mix of hard and not-so-hard items to find. We gave ourselves a night per path to get through the hunt, but a dedicated hunter who had more willpower than us for not playing on everything you find along the way could do it in less.

Quick recap of the highlights:

1) The Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt is underway and runs until the end of November, so you have plenty of time to play through it all if you have not yet started. The 5 involved sims are all adjoining, so you can walk from place to place without needing to teleport all over.

2) You are hunting for dirty skulls marked with a phoenix emblem. There are roughly 30 or so skulls per path, 1 path per sim. Keep an eye on the official blog hints page to keep track of which path you are on and which hints apply - its easy to cross a sim line and get the paths tangled.

3) Every time we've been to the sims for the hunt, there were a ton of people around, so do what you can to try to keep your lag-inducing elements to a minimum.

Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt - Creepy Path

Sorry, folks - apparently my blonde roots were showing a bit yesterday: I left this blog entry to autopost itself since I was not going to be around, and I set up the times wrong so it never did. Dumb blogger, lucky readers since that means there will be 2 posts made today to get me back on schedule (I am working on photos of the final hunt path gifts as this posts).

So, without further ado, here is your look at the gifts that can be found on the Creepy path of the Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt. Information about the hunt specifics can be found in the previous posts about this hunt or on the official website. You have plenty of time to get out there and search for the tricky skulls since the hunt runs to the end of the month.

Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt - Haunted Path

Ok, folks, we are a little over halfway through showing you all the fabulous goodies you can find if you take up the challenge of the Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt. There are 5 paths on the hunt and this is a look at the gifts from the Haunted path.

If you have never visited the Firestorm sims before, you will be amazed at the amount of work and detail they put in to creating gorgeous, natural spaces throughout all 5 sims. There are forests, waterfalls, underwater ruins, pirate wrecks, places to kick back and relax, dancing, flying, bubble rides, freefall ride, and more. In addition to doing the hunt, be sure to take the time to enjoy the surroundings - this is truly a beautiful spot to spend some time in Second Life.

Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt - Bones Path

We've got a look at the next path on the Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt loaded and ready to entice those of you who enjoy a challenging hunt. For those unfamiliar with this event, here is a quick recap of the hunt highlights:

1. This is a 5-sim wide hunt hosted by the Firestorm folks and will be open until the end of November. The sims are all adjoining, so you can easily walk across from one to the other as you hunt.

2. You are hunting for dirty skulls tagged with the phoenix logo. They are EVERYWHERE (roughly 150 in total, about 30 or so on each hunt path).

3. There are 5 paths to this hunt (Bones, Wicked, Creepy, Haunted, Spooky) and each path has its own set of hints available on the official website. You can hunt them in any order.

4. Since there are a lot of people doing this event, please be kind to other hunters and dress appropriately - leave your highly scripted, high lag inducing items at home to help keep down the lag on the sims.

5. Take your time, search every nook and cranny, and have a good time!

Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt - Wicked Path

Oooooh boy, have we got a hunt for you die-hard enthusiasts! The Firestorm Spooky Nights Hunt is going on right now in SL and we are having a blast with it. There are 5 paths to the hunt, spread out over 5 interconnected sims with roughly 150 prizes to be found. We have successfully completed 4 of the 5 paths as of this posting and are working on the last one. (Dear SL, enough with the unscheduled maintenance, its eating into hunt time!) The hunt hint page on the Firestorm site (link below) has hints for each of the 5 paths, but one thing to aware of is WHERE your av actually is on the sims. Its very easy to cross a sim line and be looking for item from path A on the sim for path C. Nothing will make you crazier than chasing a hint from path 2 on the sim for path 4!

You are hunting for skulls marked with the Firestorm phoenix - and this is not anything like your typical store hunt. You will find them anywhere and everywhere: between rocks, up in trees, hidden in houses, underwater, etc. Sometimes the clues are very helpful, other times you may find yourself wandering the sim tearing your hair out. There are also a ton of people out doing this hunt at any given time, so you may find yourself in a crowd as you search - which means BE KIND to other hunters and leave your heavily scripted stuff at home to do your part to help keep the lag down. Each path has roughly 30 items to find, so if you break it up like we did and work on one path at a time, you should be able to get through it without running around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to keep track of what items from which path you have.

We are posting the paths separately simply because it is easier for us to keep track of what we have and have not done and we are also posting them in the order we hunted them - we path hopped to avoid the crush of folks on the first path the day we started. Here is a look at the prizes you can get on the Wicked path.
