Friendly Thursday: Olivette

Hello dears, hello hello. What are you doing here dears, are you after a mask? I don't make many new ones you know, my arthritis and all, but I have so many, so so many stored from ages past, and many have made their way back to me somehow too!
You may only see Olivette for a few weeks out of the year, but she's always there, and always busy busy busy. She doesn't consider herself alone - she has her masks, you see. She talks to them for days on end, and she will tell anyone that asks that some even talk back to her! Not much fazes Olivette, not even the small children who try to pinch the odd mask from her in their games.
There is one thing that will really set her off, though. You'd do best not to find it, for Olivette has been around a long time, and picked up a lot of tricks over the years. Still, if you'd like to face her, she's now available as a challenger if you can find out what unlocks her!
Once you unlock Olivette, she will appear in the Secret Tab.
Unlocking Olivette is not limited to just this month like with our Throwback Challengers. While we'll continue releasing a challenger on the second Thursday, you'll have plenty of time to unlock them.

Kudos to all the smart people who worked out how to get this old arthritic perpetrator of mask distribution on the hit list. :joy:

Olivette is a cutie. I am afraid to see what her fear is going to be. :(
[spoiler="UNLESS unlock spoiler]Well, unless it actually turns into some heartwarming tale about her being freaked out by local noppera-bo Gabriel and their delightfully smooth and featureless face.
So, she makes everyone faces now.
They're just called "masks" instead. ♥️&
[spoiler="Ugh unlock spoiler]My natural state on here is FACELESS (face things under base thing) and it totally wasn't working. D:
But, despite Amber's insistance that one does not need to be naked to make this work...
Naked.
Actaully.
Worked.
Also, flashback to last year's dance where a crapton of unconverted avatars were faceless and naked allll over the dancefloor. She probably hated last year.
(now realizing that my eyepatch is 'face' so that was probably the niggle. oh well, naked worked. :P)

Time to visit the healer.

I'm battling her now and I'm only allowed to choose one weapon, not the usual two... is that normal for this challenger?


Oh no she's like the woman version of the Happy Mask Salesman from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. D: So creepy...
I was waiting for this when I accidentally saw the loot in the item directory as I was looking up the new lifelike dolls. Thank goodness my pet was able to get in five wins.
i tried everything but it didnt work.
Then i just went naked and it worked. maybe the moral of the story is...

You have defeated Olivette 5 times!
You have defeated Olivette 10 times!
Might let my T11 battle her...

Omg, so... Double post, I know, but what if her unlocked fear is just a bunch of pieces of wood sitting on the ground, with her carving tools next to it, but because of her arthritis, she can't do anything with them, and they just taunt her? Kind of like that episode of Twilight Zone where the guy breaks his glasses after finally getting the books all to himself? That would be so, so heartbreaking, honestly. I've seen all the stuff my Mama's had to give up because of her arthritis, and it kills me.

Lol that was annoying, my laptop hates drag-and-drop things so I had to edit my HA on my phone..
You have defeated Olivette 10 times!
yay c':

Well I beat her once and looks like that is it. Some day in the distant future I will get that loot.

I was like, "OMG YES MASQUERADE!" and then got let down to see she was just a battle opponent.
l o l rip me.
l o l rip me.


I managed to unlock her, hooray! Maybe in 10,000 years I'll be able to beat her!

The shop is only open during Masquerade, but you don't need to visit the shop to unlock her.

That was easy, all I had to do was walk into Ziara and I unlocked her. Had to read these posts to figure out why! lol!



@StarShadow Way I understood it was that Vesnal was pushed back so that Survival and Masquerade wouldn't have to be right back to back, so it might be a week or so yet?


I see they're preparing for Masquerade. I hope they wait a few more days though. One time they started it just a few days after Survival and it was exhausting having 2 have-to-be-on-all-the-time events back to back.





Oh man, she's a nasty old lady if you don't manage to get her frozen quickly!
Blocking my weapons, my scrolls, everything. It's just cruel!

Hmm, I got the loot from the 5th win, but it didn't show up on the battle page. No idea if I got EXP/etc from it. Page just looked like this:

Well... I unlocked her but that's all I can do. Poukie is no match for her... for now at least.



lmao no wonder I couldn't figure out the specifics, that's my default HA setup like 90% of the time. derp

@Sirius Like the news post says, you can unlock the challengers after the month they're released :) So there's no rush if you haven't gotten the other ones done yet

I don't even have an idea how to unlock the others (is that still possible at all?) and now there's the next? Noooo...!


i wanted masquerade but this is fine too
tho i have a feeling she will be too strong for my tiny t6 pet

ooo interesting I too am ancient with arthritis, so this should be an interesting fight ... once I work out how to unlock her that is ???


i don't like beating up old people, or people with arthritis
i feel like it bodes ill for my future
but i'll do my best anyway, 'cause i want loot
