Guesting and Overflow [merged]

Since the introduction of the 1 chest pr. boss pr. day pr. character, almost every single world event/world boss creates so much pressure on the zone that all players that arrive around the time of the pre-event/event get thrown into the overflow (almost always long enough for the event to end).
This is a serious issue that takes a big chunk of the fun out of the game. I don’t mind the fact that as a player you can’t “camp” events for the chests by making the limitation, but it does become a problem when a fair share of the players can’t even participate in events when you hear about them being about to start in your guild chat – because of the overflow of players for the events.

The pleasure for us PvE players is serious, we can’t sit around for 2-3 hours just to have a shot at encountering a boss ikittenone. Once we have finished the quests and puzzles in an area, it’s not really that interesting to sit around doing nothing, waiting for a fun encounter to turn up.

Please adress this issue or make some sort of announcement on what you plan to do to resolve this in a future patch.
