It’s upset at the moment… And I’m assuming the “one time event” was the cut scene, and that the dungeon is going to stick around since it’s Act III
and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.”
you didn’t miss much in terms of the timed event by itself.
It was indeed a small cutscene that opened an instanced place for 5 people (at the lion’s statue)
I’m sure the instance itself will remain open from here on, and that’s where the real event should be I guess (since it can’t have been that cutscene…)
Would indeed like confirmation that this dungeon stays open for several hours, if not days.

Tweet from Anet :
For those who have asked: Phase 3 will run for a couple of days, so you can all battle the Mad King ^MK
Oh I see, thanks. I HATE twitter and wish they’d use their own webpages to inform the crowd. Thank you anyway!

Yes, the Ascent to Madness instance (Act 3) will be available until the beginning of Act 4. Act 1 and 2 will be available until the end of Halloween.
When is the beginning of Act 4?

How long will the entire Halloween event last? Sadly I haven’t been able to play lately, however I would like to get in on the Halloween events before they are over for the year.
The finale is supposed to be October 31st, as far as I know.
Okay, Thanks! I must get my gaming butt in gear and absorb all the Halloween events before they are over for the year!
So… We actually get 3 days to do that event? Talk about “super limited time you have to be here” :p
The boss is soloable and the drop is like a joke… what a nice event…
How do I enter the clock tower now? I cant find the portals anymore
Neither an Achievement lol
“Oct 28 with a very special, one-time only surprise!”

Hi, will the instance be fixed before the beginning of Act 4?
Lets hope Act 4 will either be stable or be longer than a day, because this is just crazy, everyone shouting around and spamming everywhere. It’s not even fun anymore.
A specific time would be cool. I’m at my sublet (college) where I don’t have sufficient computer for a dungeon and I will be home at 31st evening (gmt) only. I’m curious whether I will have time for at least one dungeon run, or not.
@Nathriel, it is a very straight forward dungeon. If you can play this game in general you should be able to do this dungeon. Either way, it is the 4th part of the “Mad King’s World” achievement, so jump on in there.
Pretty sure that the one time only event was the cut scene when the Mad King broke through into Lions Arch, not the dungeon itself.

I’m kind of disappointed that this whole Halloween event spans such a short amount of time, and considering most of US east will be without power for the next few days, its seems unfair to them that they have noway to play the 4th act. Maybe next year this event will actually last a minimum of 2 weeks :O
@ Mythrindir Yes cause right now it lasts only 14 days wich is totally not 2 weeks.
This is Act 3, Act 4 starts on the 31st and the entire event ends on the 5th. Everything is very well written here https://www.guildwars2.com/en/events/halloween-2012
Halloween is 1 day. We get 2 weeks. Sounds fine to me. But yea this hurricane. I already know i’m losing power.
@thesalesman the 5th? really, I must have missed that because on that page all I find is 11/1/12.
Must have been mistaken then.
