- this thread was made sticky although it contained wrong information about where the event starts; all we got in LA was a mail that said “go to Southsun Cove”
- again, the correct information appeared on Twitter, which many of us don’t use
- during the transition to Southsun Cove, many were moved from their real servers to an overflow and seperated from their friends
- the overflows had severe performance problems, this seems to have been better on the real servers
- the event started instantly, since the eastern waypoint was contested, people were automatically moved to the southern waypoint and didn’t know how to get up the cliff
- after the eastern waypoint wasn’t contested any more, it was still unusable for many, even after the lag got better
- again, heavy lag and “people and enemies popping out of nowhere problems”, as already mentioned especially on the overflows
- if you were disconnected, you seem to have ended up in a different overflow with the event in a different state, which felt very inconsistent
- one time, shortly after we entered the cave, the NPC suddenly disappeared and the event completely reset
- several times, multiple veteran Karka spawned right on top of each other, spit invisible acid, applied immobilize and a 20k stomp, killing everything within vicinity within less than two seconds without a chance to react – that’s not challenging but frustrating (http://i.imgur.com/LbNtp.jpg)
- the waves of reinforcements that had to be fought were just plain boring, I actually went offline for an hour, logged back in and fortunately got right to the end of that phase
- the Ancient Karka teleported happily at one time, when we pushed back and were at the bottom, it didn’t run up but disappeared and reappeared at the top, which felt wrong (on the way down it actually moved; it was probably meant to bury itself in the hive’s ground, but it just vanished into thin air)
- the final chest could not be opened by many who were dead, as it seems it disappeared for them, same is true for anybody who was disconnected and so on
- if you participated in the long, boring part of the event and missed the final boss (which really was fun) you didn’t get any loot, people should’ve gotten it by mail; as I said I logged out and came back later, so I didn’t do too much but still got the full loot
