Yo Ho, Yo Ho! A Summoner's Life For Me!

Greetings Summoners!

Arrrrrrrr - we be given’ Captain Flint a run for his stash o’ rum! This is your opportunity to do your best Jim Hawkins, Summoner style, on this inspired journey through our very own, Mutant Treasure Island!

LAND AHOY!

NEW quest details, so pay close attention!

We dock at the Island of Krakoa, on September 2, 2020. Strange as it were, tales recount access to the Island requires no Energy or any other forms of payment at all. However, travellers beware, Mutants have taken to erecting locked gates along marked paths, identified by Difficulty, to the hidden treasure chests containing the likes of Crystals, Catalysts, Awakening Gems and more. The Mutants answer to one master, the master of this Island, one scoundrel of a seadog who goes by the name of… Platinum Jones.

Should you wish to travel these paths in search of Jones’ scattered treasures, one must possess a very particular model of Key, called an ISO Key, to which no living soul has acquired the blueprints for. Jones is fully aware of his monopoly so you will have to earn his favour if you be wanting those Keys! What would a salty dog like Jones want, you say? Well, we hear he enjoys the thrill of sending travelers on solo adventures in order to complete special objectives. Complete the objectives to Jones’ satisfaction and you will be granted one of Jones’ Lockers. In it, you will have the opportunity to select one (1) Key of your choosing. As Jones alone holds the right to the Keys, he is not likely to entertain you for more than once a day for the duration of our stay. However, in case you’ve found the bottom of the rum barrel the night before, Jones might be inclined to save you a Locker for the days you were missing in action, but not before you complete the very same objectives you would have owed to him! A word of caution: these Keys have been known to dematerialise after each use, so you will need a new Key for each path you choose to enter. Tricky business, these Keys!

From there, it will be up to you to defeat the resident Mutants, and any of the Island’s other rogue inhabitants, that guard the chests and claim the hidden treasures of Krokoa. Before we send you on your way, our scouts took the shores in the dead of night so they could deliver the following report.

SCOUT REPORT:
Our scouts have reported 28 paths per Difficulty, with Hidden Characters along each of the various paths, and rather unpredictable Bosses. Apparently, Deadpool has also been spotted on the path of Epic Difficulty and up to his usual mischief on the Island, so be on your guard for this familiar face!

We set sail again in about a month’s time, on October 7, 2020. Explore at your own risk; stay on the paths! Travellers have been known to stray from the paths and come to perish on the Island. We hope you meet a happier fate.

Fair travels, Summoners. May your adventures on Krakoa be bountiful.

LEGENDARY DIFFICULTY

The walls have ears. We hear you wish to be challenged further, that we have been too kind. We hear your chants, and we answer with Legendary Difficulty.

REWARDS

Thanks to some of our more zealous scouts, we have even secured reports on potential contents of these elusive treasure chests, which all seem to carry a certain curious star rating:

1-Star Chests:
Gold, sweet Gold

2-Star Chests:
Hero Crystals or Hero Crystal Shards

3-Star Chests:
Catalyst Fragments, Catalysts or Catalyst Crystals

4-Star Chests:
Signature Stone Crystals or Awakening Gem Crystal

Remember! These can all be found INSIDE the treasure chests!

***UPDATE: Friday, September 4, 2020

This has been a journey for us all. We're happy to confirm that the event is back up and running as intended. Most of the event functionality is going to be the same, so please review the main post for a refresher, if you need it! However, we appreciate that you may have some questions in light of the recent interruptions, so please also read this quick Q&A. We hope this answers your pressing questions about the event!

Q: Can I run the first path (before the event was paused) and claim the rewards there again?
A: Yes, you may. But all paths going forward will only allow you to claim the rewards once.

Q: Are all the rewards shown on the path now instead of hiding in treasure chests?
A: Yes! They will be laid out on the path now instead of being hidden in treasure chests.

Q: Have any of the rewards moved since the original map (before the pause)?
A: Yes, unfortunately, they've gone on a bit of a shuffle. But they are also laid out on the map now so you will be able to see where the rewards you want are located!

Q: Will the Keys still disappear after they use it to unlock a path? Will the path remain open (with no more rewards) once it's unlocked?
A: Yes, the Key will still disappear once you've unlocked the path. If you do not complete the path and quit, the Key will be returned to you and the path will be locked again. If you complete the path, then the Key will disappear and the path will remain unlocked. Remember! You MUST COMPLETE the path in order to claim all the rewards you've earned along the path; if you DO NOT COMPLETE the path, then the path will be locked and reset (rewards are placed back along the path), and you get your Key back.

Q: Will the Champions along the path and Bosses stay the same?
A: Yes! Any mysterious Champions along the path marked with a "?" will be a random (from a limited pool) Mutant, and the Bosses are still random (from a limited pool of Mutants) for everybody!

Q: Can you claim the rewards on the open paths more than once?
A: Again, NO, you cannot! Besides, the rewards won't be there anymore once you complete the path and claim all the rewards along the path!

We apologise for the interruption. The Mutant Treasure Island event will be temporarily disabled due to a bug. Our sincerest apologies again for the interruption. The team is working hard to make sure you can all continue this wonderful event again very soon!

Meanwhile, feel free to complete the objective for a Platinum Jones Locker if you haven’t done that today! This will still be available to you while we work on getting you back on the Island!

Stay tuned!

I know you guys don't know exactly when, but could you possibly post an estimated time window and post updates as you are making progress.

These are just suggestions I have, but thankful to have a forum to suggest and ask on.

By the way enjoy the event so far!

TheInfinty

So any updates it’s been almost 4 hours? I completely fine waiting just wondering when it will be ready to go back in to

KDSuperFlash10

Is it back yet?

Kabam Boo

Due to unforeseen complications, we regret that our adventures on Mutant Treasure Island will be delayed a little longer than expected. A bit of good news is that we have a solution ready to go but would just like to be doubly sure that it is stable so to avoid any potential further issues as best we can.

We’re terribly sorry about it; but please know that we will be working tirelessly this evening to ensure the quickest and smoothest return to our event tomorrow! Thank you again for your incredible patience. We look forward to having you back on the Island!

REMINDER: Objectives and progress in the event will be unaffected by this downtime. You can still collect Keys and use them when the quest comes back!

We appreciate you all so very much. Thanks for sticking around.

This is what I mean...

How is someone who doesn't read forums suppose to know what is what?

It should tell people what Prestige level each key is rated for, the default is key 2, which is equal to what Prestige?

tap on the key. They provide descriptions.

DariusYi

We have noted your concerns, folks! We are doing our very best to ensure the smoothest return of your Island adventure. We appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter. Again, please trust that the team is considering the best possible solutions for everybody to resume your Island adventure as quickly, and smoothly, as possible!
Also, as many players mentioned, please mention difficulty level on each key.. That would be easy to understand instead of looking for colors or whatever..

just tap on the key icon. It has description on which difficulty it unlocks.

DariusYi

For those wondering which key to select, just tap on the key. There will be popup explaining its use.

Will the Treasure island be fixed today or tomorrow

I'm on the other side of the world so I didn't see the quest before it was taken down. Can anyone tell me how many fights per path are in the Legendary Difficulty? Also, are they noded too much and at what PI? I'm only UC and I found Canadian Difficulty to be pretty doable but Herald Difficulty was difficult but can be manageable only with the right counter. I might plan on taking it to help me get Cavalier.

So someone may have asked and answered this but there's alot of messages to read so just gonna ask anyway.

So can we save up the ISO keys and run multiple paths/per key or do they have to be ran the day you earn the key??

Nix2222

It isn’t fair and a temporary ban is a small slap on the wrist when people are getting 9+ Awakening gems. Sends the wrong message that cheating is worth it.
But what about the people who did it on accidentally , it isn't fair people took advantage of this event but I don't think an temporary or permanent ban should be in effect

Take away the rewards and start over to make it fair. Those who blatantly abused it (like the 9 awake I g gems) should get a long ban or more. Kabam cannot let people keep these rewards and consider it fair.

Never said it was fair but doing a long ban for their own mistake is also not fair

There are so many flaws in it what u want done witch can't be done

you can save up the keys. you can only open 1 path per key. once the path is opened, it stays open. you can rerun the path, but you will not get the same reward again. reward from the chest is only available once.
There was a bug where players rerun the path and keep on getting the same reward over and over again.

Taking away rewards is fair. Banning people is not. Some probably didn't even know how it should work

Banning people is not fair in my opinion. People who've exploited the bug has just done so because of kabam's mistake. They were lucky enough to exploit it but it was a mistake from kabam's side and the people who had the opportunity naturally would go for the rewards. Don't be jealous of those guys Kabam is smart enough to decide weather compensation should be given or not.

Well if you did realise that there was a bug you probably shouldn't've exploited it.... Plus how am I not supposed to be jealous of a guy who got 20 5 star awakening gems or 31 featured 5 star crystals....

Giuliameij

If you know it is a bug and you exploit it you know you are doing something wrong. Doing something wrong knowingly should always be punished. A ban seems too hard for me. Just ban them from this quest. Or if you can check how many times they did it. restrict the amount of days they can enter.
This way the rewards will equal out to everyone.

Well yeah but you can't even out the rewards unless everyone is allowed to rerun the quest. As I mentioned above some guys got 20 5* ags and another got 31 5* featureds... So it would be better if they removed all the rewards and then banned them for 3-5 days...
