Why am i not able to get into pavillion?
I asked the same thing a few days ago. The game told me to close portals but would not let me into an overflow with an active event. I’ve completely stopped doing Clockwork Chaos content as a result. I don’t know when (or even if) I will ever log back in to the game again. It is going to take a lot from ArenaNet to convince me to play any future Living Story patches.

Yep, forgot to mention that too…if you can’t do the invasions because of being put into overflow, you are screwed out of content for no reason lol.
I already did Scarlett’s playhouse, just made this thread because i did have trouble to get into it at first (overflow problem) and even then i just wanted to get into the pavillion not be forced to do a random dungeon.
Anyways, anet makes great content, they just sorta dropped the ball on the whole “we’re not going to let you access this content till you do this dungeon” that you can’t access if you can’t even do the invasion part -_-
Actually, easiest way to get back in is to just have somebody else pull you into the Scarlet’s Playhouse dungeon. The second you complete it, you get the achievement that lets you get back into the Pavilion. There, done.

The reason that you can’t do the event in overflows, is because you have to enter the specific map in 10 minutes. The event appears every hour, so for example on 3:00 it begins, you can enter till 3:10. If you enter the specific map after that time you won’t be able to participate unless you join a party.
Then, as my preposter said, if you go with someone else in the playhouse you will be able to get back ino the Pavilion. You can also enter it by climbing upon the roof of the pavilion and jump in.

Entering the zone within the 10 minute time limit does not guarantee that you will be placed into an overflow with an active portal event. It’s supposed to, but it doesn’t. The problem is that some overflows persist past the event’s finale and into the next hour. So instead of joining a 5 minute old overflow at 5 minutes past the hour, you are joining a 65 minute old overflow with no active event.
Except they can’t persist that long, the event only goes 40 minutes or so. There’s still at least a ten minute window before the top of the hour.

Yes, they can. All that is needed is for people to refuse to leave the overflow by clicking the decline button when prompted to return to their home world.
I should know. I spent two days attempting the portal events and only got in on 3 active events. Every other time I was kicked to an eventless overflow and well within the 10 minute window.
