Why am I getting this message when I zone in there right away after the new invasion zone has been announced?
What exactly is the mechanic here, and what do I need to do to work around this?

Not be in overflow. If you are in an overflow, you have about a 50-50 chance of it having an event at the same time or within 10 minutes. If there isn’t, you can safely assume your zone isn’t one.

Each event happens once every hour, and lasts more or less 50 minutes. In order to prevent multiple events from happening at the same time, an event in an overflow can only trigger at most 10 minutes after the event in the main world has began. Overflows are created when players enter it.

So, if you enter an overflow that has been created more than 10 minutes after an event has began, said overflow won’t ever be invaded. The latest update (a few minutes ago) happened 12 minutes after the invasion began, so all overflows created after players went back post-patch did not have the invasion.

treadmill, of being in that obvious pattern of every time I catch up you are going to
put another carrot in front of me” – Mike O’Brien right before Ascended weapons

Yes, but I was in an overflow at 6:02 PM server time – this is within 10 minutes. So why did I still see that message?

Seems every server has the same message after the update. Just wait for the next event.

Or you could have just waited another hour and see that it was just that single event that was bugged because of the patch -.-’ Working fine now

I haven’t been able to enter, much less complete, a portal event for the past four hours or so. I have officially given up on this update.
