LS went from 2014 to 2018 with no updates. So maybe this means 2022 will be the next time we get updates? :D

Its a pipe dream :P dont get your hopes up. You probably missed the golden age of events but the rewrite buffs are better than events were without the drop buffs. Skillers are probably the only ones that will disagree with that as the events REALLY helped you skill up.

background info:

Before the rewrite paul created events that buffed certain aspects of the game in a bid to temporarily fix the game's broken parts. Anything from buffing speed of skills, boosting xp from completely skill attempts, increasing ee from suffing, more eps, no spins/tds, monster difficulty, item drop quality, more/better warm lights, more GP from 101 climbs, etc. These special buffs would rotated every 2-4 days with new mods each time. The event would be displayed near the play ladderslasher button on the LS portal and list the buffs as well as time remain. When paul finished the rewrite he opted to remove the events for fear of unbalancing the game after boosting drop rates and increasing the MQ lvl. He had said they would return after a month or two of seeing how the changes affected the game. During that time we (as a community) pissed paul off yet again and he has since gone back to MIA for LS development. Now 8 months later there is no word or sign that events are ever coming back.

Ive been pretty much convince paul really just makes updates to see how many people he can force to quit each time. Its gotten harder and harder as time went on. Just think..

-increasing door number -- I imagine this was not a major loss of players but definitely caused some
-Lifesteal/LPK/MPK/LPA/MPA nerf -- Some people lost MASSIVELY on gear that went from gg no regen Full MCC MQs to slightly above average gear.
-EE cap on overspawns -- Further destroying the value of some of the best gear in game
-Change muting -- Gamblers could no longer put money in LS through muting without playing AND completely destroyed one of the most consistent forms of income this game as ever had.
-Remove Arena/Well -- Mass Retirement
-Nerfing quests/drop rates -- Slow attrition while your motivation slowly withers with no drops.
-Increase MQ lvl -- Further disenfranchise players with weaker gear and HC players who werernt willing to accept the massively increased risk


Quite honestly the rewrite was probably the only good and mostly non-nerf update in like 10 years....
