Mini World Changes

Mini World Changes were in the Winter Update 2011. Just as World Changes do, they allow for a more dynamic shaping of the Tibian world but unlike them, these cannot be triggered through actions made by Players. These changes happen somewhat rarely and do not come with warnings. They last a few hours. NPC Towncryer tells you about these mini changes, by shouting a message.

Bank Robbery
Towncryer: Hear me! Hear me! Stand and deliver! That's what they shout, robbing banks in main's coastal towns and then hide out. Catch the thieves and make us proud, bring back the gold to please the crowd!

This change affects one of the banks of Ab'Dendriel, Carlin, Thais and Venore.

From time to time thieves will rob one of the Banks of Tibia and the bankers will ask you for help. In order to restore the Bank's functionality you will have to find and fight the thieves and bring back the bags of stolen money for a small reward. This Mini World Change will start at a random time during a day and end when the thief is caught, unlike other Mini World Changes which start after server save and run until another server save.


 * For the bankers of Thais, Naji and Suzy, you need to find Jesse the Wicked, here.
 * For the banker of Ab'Dendriel, Finarfin, you need to find Elvira Hammerthrust.
 * For the banker of Carlin, Eva, you need to find Robby the Reckless.
 * For the banker of Venore, Rokyn, you need to find Mornenion.

If you bring back the stolen goods you will get the achievement.

If after saying "quest" she tells you that she's bored, you can bring her Blood Herbs and you have the chance to get a Torn Teddy and the achievement.

After killing all the orcs inside the camp, Bibby Bloodbath will spawn. Kill her and you will be rewarded with the achievement.

Statistics
Through some empirical research it became very likely not every Mini World Change has the same chance of occurring. Therefore statistics have been gathered and can be seen below, it is a working project since more statistics need to be added to get accurate data. To gather this data a character needs to listen to Towncryer for a few minutes once per 24 hours, this can be done on multiple worlds. A total varying between zero and six MWC at the same time have been encountered.
