The Easter Bunny seems to have been around forever. Or has he? What makes him seem immortal? This Easter, calamity has once again befallen his factory, and he needs your help to solve the problem. As well as giving you the chance to fix some impressive machinery, and deal with some colourful (but less than helpful) characters, Splitting Heirs will also give our free players a taste of what it’s like to catch implings.
This event revisits the past, so if you’ve played previous Easter events you’ll recognise the incubator from 2008 and the Easter Bird from 2006. Find out what makes the Easter Bunny tick, and you could also earn yourself a new fun weapon. So what are you waiting for? Go seek out the Easter Bunny!

Pyre logs now have a ‘Make-X’, and code for this has been significantly reworked. Also, any bonus experience gains from the All Fired Up quest rewards should now properly apply.
The April Fools’ cabbages have now been removed from the game, and seagulls have been removed from the Hunter skill.
The speed at which your prayers activate should now be back to normal, without the delay some players have been experiencing.

For me, the Easter Event 2009 was quite a disappointment. I didn't like the Quest, it was too boring and too long. The rewards were ok, though the emote is weird in my opinion.
I really hope the Easter Event next year will be more exciting, I remember they were more fun the past years then this year. 
Also the April Fools Cabbages are removed. I liked them, and I hoped they would stay just like the Spinning Plates and the Kite. But on the other hand it is a too large and strange item to wield, so it could have been a good choice to remove them.
