Nightmare Event
  • Fixed an issue where the Drifter cost of the new items wasn't always reducing if you progressed through the Costume: Lance or Sidekick: Chaos Imp missions. This may reset any progress you had on the Worm's Turn, Gateway to Nightmare or Shadow of the Colossus missions. We apologize for the inconvenience.
  • Added Predator Archetype to the event store. This will be available on the 23rd.



Costumes
  • Fixed an issue with the female Qliphothic helmet costume.

    And if there is a wipe...how is that going to be resolved?

    Missions that reset are automatically re-granted.

    To be very clear, this is just for the dailies, not the ongoing Costume/Sidekick missions. Progress on those have not been reset.​​

    why not just autocomplete every mission instead. I switched before mission hand in on most of my characters so I could get in on the next zone. Suck the life out of this game more please.

    .

    Excuse me, but the game never Re-granted me the daily missions after the reset
    It completly dropped them and I just lost progress with 8 characters and I have to wait tomorrow again :angry:
    even more annoying because the 1 character had both The Worms Turn and Gateway to Nightmare completed before maintance but didn't give in

    Hmmmm.

    We'll look into extending the event 1 day to make up for any lost time on the dailies.​​

    UPDATE: Silly me. This was after coming home and turning the computer on from a cold boot so I didn't assume that the answer was to warm boot immediately after the cold boot. I guess the recent update didn't take on my cold boot the first time and I had to warm boot after a cold boot to get rid of the error. I can get in now. Tragedy averted.
    I'm unable to log in CO now. it sais "Unable to authenticate: Connection to the account server timed out".

    also also ditto. nobody knows a fix yet? Server shows green. I didn't have a lot of time today I was hoping to get in and out but clock is ticking I may not be able to move things around and do this later today.

  • Before the server shut down I had almost completed the dailies worm turns and gateway to nightmare with my main character. After the reset they had been removed from my log and I was unable to recollect them as a result this has lost me 40 elysium for the day, not happy
  • ealford1985ealford1985 Posts: 3,582 Arc User
    That’s CO for you...rehash an event system, clear all your tokens, wait until you are almost finished...do it again.

    And people keep asking for Dark Champions, clearly they aren’t paying attention.

    Thank you but im still disappointed with the lost progress of today
    Now I need to wait for next Wednesday for the IMP sidekick instead of next Monday as I was planning pig-44.gif

    EDIT: On the characters I didn't logged in yesterday night for this forced mission drop, the game won't even give me the daily again today! Meaning I lost 2 days progress!
    On the completed mission list the dailies are not in Cooldown, but the game wont give them to me​​

    Whatever it is that keeps draining all my energy while I'm trying to tank the Nightmare Colossus, I dunno if its one of his attacks or some random mob, (I've heard the Malfean Inquisitors can but I don't think I'm ever near any) but can we please remove that as a mechanic in the game in general? Its game breaking. You can't do anything without energy. We fine tune our builds to function at these end-game tiers, and then you throw uncounterable crap like this at us that renders our entire build useless. Don't attack our energy dude, its not cool.
  • ealford1985ealford1985 Posts: 3,582 Arc User
    Energy attacks have always been in the game

    Energy drain isn't something that was thrown into the game recently. When you were fighting Argent NPCs all these years you were fighting NPCs with energy drain. Also there's always a way to counter it, generally something as simple as blocking.

    For the nightmare colossus the energy drain seems difficult to block, but it isn't really a big deal. You're not gonna die or lose aggro cause of it.

    Nightmare Event
    • Fixed an issue where the Drifter cost of the new items wasn't always reducing if you progressed through the Costume: Lance or Sidekick: Chaos Imp missions. This may reset any progress you had on the Worm's Turn, Gateway to Nightmare or Shadow of the Colossus missions. We apologize for the inconvenience.

    There is still an issue with Drifter cost discount for the Sidekick: Chaos Imp missions. I've done 7 out of 10 missions and the cost is 200 Drifter Exchange. I believe it should be a 70% discount from 400 Drifter Exchange.
