## Halloween Update Details ver. 1.1.1.0 (28-Oct-2018)

The Halloween event will be live from Oct 29th (starting at 1am CET, 7pm EDT, 7am Beijing Time) till the Night Attack on Nov 5th.

Happy Halloween Horror: Join the "Pumpkin Hunt" in the dark forests of Grimmwood!

Let's talk about... Pumpkins! What would become of Halloween if not for our humble, orange friend - no Jack O'Lanterns, no pumpkin pie, no headless rider, no... Halloween!

That's why the "Pumpkin Hunt" is available until Nov 5th! Make sure to collect as many pumpkins as possible as you not only can unlock new Steam achievements, but will also refresh your precious stamina points. They can be found at all points of interest or dropped as loot from killed monsters (god knows what they were going to do with them...).

### update

Here’s a list with the key update features:

* A new “Pumpkin” item
	+ Will be available only during the Halloween Event;
	+ Can be used as food and the Stamina Points it gives won’t affect your Hunger levels (meaning that all SP’s you gain by eating Pumpkins will further extend the SP amount available daily.);
	+ Will be very light in terms of weight (will weigh roughly as much as any Herb item);
	+ Can be found in any Point of Interest and will drop from killed Monsters.

### new

* 3 new achievements
	+ “Pumpkin Retriever”
	+ “Pumpkin Hunter”
	+ “Pumpkin Master”

Note: All three can be achieved by eating Pumpkins, which means that you’ll only have the week of the Halloween Event to get those.

* A new “Bulk Crafting” functionality:
	+ Allows you to craft more than one item simultaneously;
	+ Will contain a detailed report on the number of the successful and the failed attempts, the SP’s spent, the potential change in the durability of the tolls used.

* A new “Root Porridge” recipe:
	+ Made out of Roots;
	+ Makes the cooked roots 100% safe for eating.
