So I heard that to the get the achievement you have to be there when the event starts at 12pm PST. Does that mean I can just leave my computer on and afk at Lion’s Arch or do I actually have to do something to get the achievement? Cause the start of the event is at 3am for me and I can’t stay up that late.

You can try. No one knows what’s going to be required. The game kicks me out if i’m afk for too long. I wonder if there’s an emote that keeps you “awake”.

I was under the impression that the event starts at 12pm PST but continues throughout the entire day while being a one time only event for players(meaning you can’t do it multiple times.) I could be wrong though. I just wouldn’t think they would make the event last from 12pm to 12:01pm. That would be ridiculous.

From what I’ve gathered, there will be no achievement involved with the event today at noon.

If you’re referring to the party achievement, then I’m 90% certain that will take place on the 31st due to it’s description.

With that being said, I also wouldn’t recommend going afk during the event because nobody knows what is going to happen and you get kicked from the game after about 15 minutes of inactivity.

So the attend the party achievement is not gained by being on at the beginning and you can get it later?

I’m not 100% sure, but knowing Arenanet (Been playing their games for many years) I doubt they would put an achievement in the game that affects a certain title that you have to attend a very strict event at a very strict time.

The ‘Attend the Party’ achievement I’m sure will take place on the 31st because the description says something like “I hear the jokes are to die for!” which is hinting at the final act because in the first game during the final act The Mad King would appear and tell jokes, which if you participated you received a holiday hat.

Set a button for autorun in your options then just press it in front of a wall. But not sure it won’t kick you…

And I don’t think that there will be special reward… Not after all these threads…
