I don’t believe anyone who says they get 2 rares and sometimes a corrupted lodestone from each dragon.
I have gotten 2 lodestones in about 30 Jormags (actually 1 was underwater so that was apart from him). And rares are less common in chests. I’d agree with the 50% chance to get a rare overall including adds. Never gotten an exotic ever, even with about 130% mf.
I participate to those events regularly and I just got 3 rares wednesday on two different dragons, so it is not an urban legend, it really happens (rarely), but no sign of exotics or lodestones so far :-)
Attended/no loot/no mail
I think the script they launched for the karka chest was the cause of this “scheduled maintenance” which in my mind was not scheduled at all…
Imho, seeing as there are people who attended, got multiple chest and this additional chest, as well as people who weren’t present at all and got the chest, they should simply give a chest per account and let’s be done with that. Maybe something went wrong with their requirements, but anyway, it is now kinda unfair for whoever didn’t get this chest.
I’m on Whiteside Ridge (EU). Didn’t get the chest, obviously.
I think it will be the only wise solution at this stage since we can say now that this script is an epic fail. For the record, yes I was at the final event for 3 hours, yes I got DC’d and yes I didn’t received the chest in my mail. On the other hand, it will be strange for me to quit a game that I really enjoyed so far. As for the lack of reaction of Anet, things must be pretty messed up there…
It would be cool if we get list of criteria who is actually getting these chests in mail. I have spent ~2 hours there and got DCed while we’ve been moving towards the nest with ancient karka (event before final boss).
The lack of communication is astonishing in general… If complete transparency over the processes (events problems, significative bugs, or this mail/script nonsense) was applied, there will be less complaints, less alienation and much more comprehension among the players because terms like “don’t worry” or “Be patient” or “Don’t panic” always have the opposite effects: much worries, lack of patience and lots of panic
The effort is made and I’m glad to finally have the chance to open that chest even if I’m still waiting for it… As for those who got another chest, good for them… but please Anet when will you consider opening a public test server because since the launch things are not going well regarding the programming of the game and that script you used 12 hours ago doesn’t seem to work very well…
Vizunah Square (EU, French server) and nothing in my mail yet, I’ll guess I will also send a support ticket if nothing happens when I’ll get home after midnight… Btw I had already sent one just after the event to notify Anet for this… As for those who got a second chest or more if they used multiple toons to make the event, that doesn’t upset me, good for them, as I only care to get this compensation for my aborted participation to the final event by a DC due to the gigantic lag while following the final boss to its nest and being unable to relog after that…
