To be able to organize a server to actually focus on the oasis event it needs to be predictable as in being able to see at what time a certain event takes place to be able to gather people.
Developers should create a WvW API endpoint that can be used to fetch oasis event data such as time and location (which borderlands) so that they can be used in WvW applications and community websites.
The dynamic nature of the oasis event apparently causes it to be impossible to predict as the start time of the event is based on the end time of the previous one.
Many PvE events already have timers for them, mostly because they are static. Seeing as this is just as much a PvE event as boss events these should also have webbased timers.
You already have the data to trigger the events, for once do us WvW folks a favor and make it accessible.
This would be great. WvWers need to easier access to this information, otherwise they won’t fight one another as often, making it boring for all involved (or in this case – not).
Nobody at Anet loves WvW like Grouch loved PvP. That’s what we need, a WvW Grouch, but taller.
Made a tracking issue for this. I’ll try to pull it in for the next sprint, I’m not sure I’ll have time to get to it next week (e.g., it won’t be available on live in the next month, at least).
