TibiaWiki:Ten years of The Lightbearer results in graphs

The Lightbearer was released in 2009, being one of Tibia's oldest World Quests. Even though may appear simple for those reading about it for the first time, more than 10 years of Lightbearer has shown us that you can't succeed with a minimal organization by the Game World community. After all this time, what worlds has been most successful? What worlds have the worst history?

TibiaWiki has dug up the results of all Lightbearer events since 2010 to try and answer these questions. Unfortunately, the only information available regarding the results of the first year are the winners, but we don't know how many days the other worlds lasted, so this year is not considered on this analysis.

We can start by taking an overall look of the combined results per year. As we can see on the chart below, The Lightbearer has always been a challenge. Not once the average days burning (i.e. the sum of how many days each world completed divided by the number of worlds) has reached 3 days. The average is actually very close to 2 days (precisely, 2.18 days), half of the event duration.



But the truth is, this average doesn't represent most worlds very well. The factors that determine whether or not a world will succeed on The Lightbearer are known to most players: Game World type, number of active players, whether or not the world is at war and, of course, organization. If you look at the same numbers from above but split by Game World Type, something we already know is clearly confirmed: Optional PvP worlds have a much better performance.



Interestingly, if we check the performance by Game World location we notice that there's no pattern. Even though the difference between locations has been considerable in some years, all 3 locations have had good and bad years, so to speak.



But enough with this summarized data, and let's look at the results world by world. For how many days has each server been able to keep the 10 basins burning?
