The Idea
Ah Mailbot. The best worst NPC in the Hive. What do they do? Give you your mail of course! But… that’s pointless given that there’s an item for your mail, rendering Mailbot useless. In the Arcade hub, Mailbot was a prominent character, but for players who are new/didn’t use the Arcade, poor Mailbot is overlooked.
One of the coolest parts of seasonal content in the Hive is the Hub Hunts. Players run aimlessly around the hub to find eggs, pumpkins, or banners to complete a fun little quest. These provide an incentive to show off the build team’s work, as well as breathe a bit of life into the world. Unfortunately they only happen during Hive-o-ween or Lunar New Year or other events. But what if it wasn’t only limited to then…?
Enter the Mailbot Hub Quest:
- When you first interact with Mailbot, they tell you how a stack of very important letters got scattered by the wind and ended up all over the hub.
- You will need to find all 30 letters and return them.
- Finding them all will reward you with a thanks, and some free-bees (get it?)
Possible Rewards:
- Snail Mail Hub Title
- Mailbot Avatar
- Mini Mailbot Pet
