After the patch, I have noticed lower population in lion’s arch than it was before. Back then even Overflow were quite populated, now kinda sucks. It feels dead, and people only shows up when the new champions(assault knights?) are about to spawn.

That’s because knights aren’t dropping any loot. Don’t expect many to show up until this bug has been resolved. And if it turns out to be intended don’t expect anyone to show up period for the duration of the event.

Guest Desolation and you will get full and happy overflow ^^

No rewards from knights = no zerg.

Day 1, I found myself in empty overflows. It wasn’t until I got onto my main server that I actually completed the event. Day 2 (after the knight change) I didn’t even get an overflow on main. A few hours in and there wasn’t enough people to kill 1 knight. Luckily, I guested to an overflow and got a free ride to the end.
The problem with having no loot on the knights is that not only are people going to not bother now, but it also encourages people to continue killing champions or AFKing and port when it’s ready. Just keep hoping overflows.
Yep —event is too bugged. Even if I am there, I am doing other things.

I will not step foot back in LA until the knight bug is fixed. If it’s intended that not everyone gets loot, I won’t step back into the game, because that’s just horse****

overflows are a combination of ALL EU or NA servers. There is equal chance of it being full or empty regardless of the server he is in.

Could be because players are getting dumped to desktop. Repeatedly. Like, a lot.

Maybe, I’ve heard some complaining in my guild, but never experienced it myself.
No rewards from knights = no zerg.
Well, when the primary new reward added in this release is the power cores…
What do you expect?
(Yes, there’s the single-time rewards from the instance that you can enter at any time with spinal blades. But note single-time.)
Cores are now only possibly awarded if you’re on a map that can kill all three.
People are just going to stop caring about this update unless the rewards are fixed.

you dont have to kill all 3, but you do need to be part of a group that kills A knight, to get the reward.
The main issue I’ve seen is Blue and it’s outrageous heals. (not enough people can be an issue, but generally wont prevent you getting loot. Only 50 people on map? continue your zerg… more, split 2 ways, more again, all 3…)
Blue heal though is OP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got 14/14. No more need to log in for no loot anyways.
It would be worth to get the cores, but I neither get them nor bags. Why should I play this buggy content

Well, if they are dropping now and dropping good, I will just buy the ones I need later…
There was a bunch of people on patch day itself, expect all those that weren’t there to be there on the weekend. That’s normally how patches work. People get what they need and move on.

In the latest patch, the loot bug should be fixed.
The blue knight heal bug had already been fixed in one of the earlier patches.

Sounds like maybe there are so many people doing LA event that all of the overflows are filling and you just happen to be dumped into one of the overflows of the overflows, with far less people.
I joined a random overflow yesterday and it was far from empty. Killed the knights and scarlet with plenty of time remaining.

It may be “fixed” but its definitely not that much better. Its just barely better than no loot. I’d prefer it to go back to the way it was with loot from each one, at least that way we had 3 chances for power cores instead of the one that we get now.
How the kitten are we supposed to amass power cores now?
That’s because knights aren’t dropping any loot. Don’t expect many to show up until this bug has been resolved. And if it turns out to be intended don’t expect anyone to show up period for the duration of the event.
Even with the loot bug fixed, its still not really worth doing. One set of loot now, instead of the three we used to be able to get.

Was killing knights yesterday and got no loot from any of them. And we only managed to kill 2 out of 3 as well. Not enough people at the moment. I’m hoping that there’s gonig to be more on the weekend.

The latest patch is dated March 7th, which implies that it is currently about 12-15 hours old (based on US Pacific working hours). Patches are usually released during the second half of the PST workday. If you played before that, the loot bug was still in at that time.
Personally, I got tired of not getting any loot at all for my effort so I’ve been off playing minecraft.
I tried the event again last night at reset…no loot from any knight, then we failed the holo fight because someone killed the green holo and we got adds. So for my hour of playtime I didn’t get a single piece of loot. And the time before the event I spent killing random mobs in the zone for dailies I barely got any loot from them either.
I may try the event one more time this weekend and I guess play on one of my lesser played classes so I have a chance at the achievements. Guess it’ll be warrior/guard since my necro, ranger and mesmer are all kitten with this event. -_-
Love the story, just really fed up and frustrated with getting absolutely nothing from the event. I don’t expect to get Scarlet’s Kiss or power cores…..heck even when loot was dropping I wouldn’t expect that (because my account is “cursed”) but seriously… nothing at all from anything. After killing in the zone I’d gotten maybe 5-6 of the supply bags. Just not right.
/end griping.

Yeah . . . just logged into Lion’s Arch. Actually, got onto my main server . . . and it was pretty much empty. Hoping this is because of the early hour, but. . . .

The 3 knights/generals are bugged and beside those there’s nothing to do in LA when you have completed your achievements (if your interested in bothering), so whats the point? There’s no rewards worth getting whatsoever in 4/3/14 patch.
May as well take a break and not log in until the ‘features/balance’ patch.
Good timing really, since I got another game to play that gives awesome loot, that changes/improves my characters and I am getting loads of fun experimenting with different builds. A world away from where GW2 is atm…

I’m playing with a necro-condition build, Its really not that bad, you do have to play a support role, for some of the fight with the Knights. But it doesn’t prevent you getting the achieves.
Mesmer is also one of the classes that stomp scarlet easier/quickly.
And you’re fine with conditions in the holo fight, it’s just the knights require you to pause and think “how else can I help while waiting”.

Yeah, GW2’s “awesome loot” is reserved for the Gem Store.

^^^^^ agreed
Complete horse **** especially since the first day had more bugs than a flea infested camel and now you can kill all three legendary knights as a very active damage dealing participant and get no loot and no cores. So now it seems like the QA (yeah right) geniuses are hard at work, and come on one obby shard, or even three obby shards as a reward is kitten ridiculous.
GW1 kept you wanting to play but 2 is looking more and more like a blow it choke.
