The Ooze is rising. Trick, treat, craft, and hold the camp.
October 1 - October 31 · Daily resets at midnight Eastern
October is Oozefest! The Ooze is rising out of the pumpkin patch and the camp has one month to get ready for it. Knock on other members' doors for candy, and on realm pages and news articles too: three quarters of the time you get a treat, and the rest of the time you get a trick. Donate candy, timber, bars and fish to the camp defenses to raise the Settlement Level, because every level of it makes everybody hit the bosses harder. Five bosses come one a week, each with three attacks a day and a chapter of the story, and the last of them walks up to the wall on the twenty-ninth. Smelt, tan and weave what you gather into gear at the Forge, then open a shop on your profile and sell what you do not need. The free 50-level pass pays Ectoplasm all month.
Arm the settlement. A full meter levels up the Militia and sends a strike at the boss.

Preparing for the next battle
No boss is in range, so the crews hold fire. Each trebuchet keeps loading from the stockpiles until it has one full shot ready, then stops drawing ammo and waits. No Food is eaten and nothing is thrown until a boss arrives. Militia strikes bank until then too.
Challenges reset every day at midnight Eastern. Season challenges pay Pass XP - finish about half the month to complete the pass. The Gold challenges run every day, season or not.

Just list stuff anyway. I've been buying a lot of things to help people get the shop achievements, then donating them. We all need to craft so much stuff to level up our skills, but we can't use all of it.
Turns out I do have some better equipment for some slots, so I'll start selling the worse stuff. Why is it like 100 times easier to get material for blacksmithing than it is all the other trades?
It seems this boss will be dropping rather easily. I think I might save my epic candies and battle stews in case the later bosses turn out to be a lot more challenging.
I've got Battle Stew, made fresh this morning! Hot and hearty, you can get it to go or enjoy it at our lunch counter. Get a taste of this, then go give that Bone Broker a taste of your steel!
