I was just trying to do the main Harathi event chain, and at the part after you take down the gate and have to defend 3 seraph, it failed because players were letting the seraphs die by not attacking the centuars and reducing the modniir offensive strength. The players responsible claim its because it was preventing them from getting good xp (this game’s lvling is not hard at all). As opposed to letting the event just finish, they let it fail and have it reset back to defending the camps. I wanted the event chain to continue, but you know, can’t really fend off large groups of centaur with no support when the event is scaled up due to players not doing anything.

I don’t really care, but this is definitely a form of event griefing and felt it should be communicated about because the manifesto said there was going to be no form of griefing, and this is an example of such griefing.

Yeah, I know there’s a crapton of events in this game, but I was looking for a quick way to get my 5 daily events done. A large chain, imo, is the best way to do it, and I happened to be in the area for PS.

Unfortunately you are kinda stuck. You will die and they wont help you. It is their prerogative to go only so far. Ya it is kinda unfair but that is their choice. Until there
is better balance ie solo then nothing can be done – the event fails and starts over.
It is the same way else where do it my way or dont do it. or my way is better ect.
All I can say is have a friend/guildie help or move on to another one.

Ps the manifesto is gone as of Nov 15.
