Community Event Item Team's Biggest Update To Date: Speculation Thread

I thought there was multiquote, unless you’re referring to something else

 

Nested is what I meant, the other forums I traffic have nested quote.

 

It requires a bit of extra work but it’s possible :D (reply to the quote you want to nest separately, then cut&paste it into the other quote)

 

So you aren't dismissing a defense fix
O-o
Could it be that this whole update is a rebalance of tank items?? Defense is fixed, and you guys need to rebalance all the items based off this change!


Jkjk, I'm board.

 

The nether portal... they’re going to fix up nether items? Update them too, maybe? Not sure if 1.18 stuff is updated in the nether world, it wasn’t like that with 1.17 for a while

 

PvP update confirmed.

 

From now on the teasers will be released less frequently but they will be some form of riddles and codes, they aren't gonna be something that you can search by just plugging into google search. They aren't traditional "internet-level" cyphers. They will require knowledge from all kinds of expertise just to decipher and the community will need to work together to make sense of them as a whole with multiple teasers, but I can promise you that none of them is multiple layers of code nonsensically stacking together.

 

Well, This is interesting to see the community to decipher this riddles.

 

Not really? Happens alot tbh.
Normally its solved before I know it exist lol.

 

tealyhunt is better smh

 

This was yesterdays teaser, I haven't spent a lot of time looking at because of school stuff but a local genius on Discord seem to have had a good idea (who are you??):

(the other thumbs up was from silvermirror, so it's probably the first riddle 'we' solved)
Looking up this page gives

Spoiler: a very big image.

I'm not entirely sure as to what it means, but the 'looks can be deceiving' part seems pretty interesting, and looking at what else is on the page, maybe it's a rework for Inferno?

Otherwise, I have some more good news:

 

It may also be worth noting that the person in the image with the hammer is Hephaestus.

 

:eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes:

 

@Hephaestus ???

 

or heph greaves

 

i know, i was making a joke
besides i think he changed his name to hephaestus because of heph greaves

 

Thanks @SilverMirror
I've been given permission to give you guys some help.
So, I can give you guys this much, the new update at the very least involves tank items to some extent.
As evident by this conversation.

Have fun.

 

Yay fix tank builds

Also ewwww discord light theme

 

Today's teaser is part of an imgur link's URL (found here: https://imgur.com/vLnoCRI), which leads us to the following image, titled "gateofmemories":

There are a number of symbols found throughout the image, but the one that stood out to me was that of the astrological sign of Leo (♌). Leo belongs to the element of fire, which relates back to the previous teaser in which we saw Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire, and the second teaser, in which we saw an unlit nether portal that requires fire to be activated.

I'm not really sure what the "gateofmemories" title is referring to, though. Could it possibly be the Door of Time?

Also, I just noticed that the fourth teaser (the video) is 1 minute and 19 seconds long, which is a funny coincidence considering the next major update will be 1.19.

 

I would like to point out that both Aquarius and Capricorn also appear.

I circled some symbols that I didn't recognize as well.
More to note, I'm fairly sure the image itself is of a jester,
whether or not his any fun at parties, I couldn't say.
It has many things floating around, such as hands, faces, and some mail stuff 'like a mailbox, or a letter.' There's also a snowflake and a few crosses of some kind.
