Just a quick reply to say thanks. I got my chest and really appreciate now having the box and trinket. I’m impressed.
Final event: Good points – the difficulty level was set right. I was with a group that got completely wiped a few times so it meant that you had to concentrate and work out what was going on. It also meant that folks had to watch out for one another. I also thought the idea behind the final event was cool (set explosives in a hive area and then drive the “ancient” into your trap).
Not so good points: Would have been nice to play the event with my husband but we couldn’t get onto our “home” server and didn’t end up in the same overflow. Suffered d/c early on and came back into a different overflow so only got a silver for the “setting the explosives” bit. That wasn’t too bad but then towards the end of the event (after about 2.5 hrs) I had another d/c and couldn’t get back into an active event. I know that Arenanet are working on getting the rewards to the folks who were affected by the d/c but it was really disappointing not to get to finish the event with the overflow group I was in. Somehow, only seeing the ancient as a dried up husk in the cave and not being there to shoot “woot” as we killed it, was a let down. And, yes, I appreciate it’s only a game, and at my age (55) I maybe shouldn’t get quite such a kick out of destroying an Ancient Karka …. but I do …. and I like shouting “woot” after an epic battle.
