    Is it just me or did they say they were going to post more info about this CTA before it goes live? This is the week more info was to come and it goes live tomorrow and the only thing I see is that so called sneak peek that shows a pic of a tree hugging hippie.

    They always post this info on Thursday after or at the maintenance.

    I have noticed that but i'm pretty sure the news feed said "we will post more next week" which would be this week and they said "before the event goes live" which should mean before it goes live would be this week prior to Thursday, ergo if they wait til the patch comes out that really isn't "before it goes live" now is it?

    Maybe this company needs to get sued more so they can realize that they need to be careful on they phrase things and how things get advertised. Not saying that i'm all for lawsuits but it seems pretty clear they have dodged people suing them otherwise the language they use in their publications would be a bit more precise.

    Actually, events usually go live about an hour after maintenance is scheduled to end. Events news posts don't generally go up until pretty much right before.

    And yes, clearly the answer is suing the company.

    Geezusbadwords, it's a silly little weekend game event for fun. The fate of the world does not hang in the balance based on anyone getting a detailed news post about it an extra day in advance.

    Anyway, Dardove basically provided the details based on the Owlbear preview build update. The "detailed" news post isn't really going to tell you anything else.

    They have been doing event reveal info like this since the start. I don't know why people have started to get up in arms about it in the last few events. What they posted isn't wrong. They will post it this week and before the event. Just right before the event starts, but that is when they always post the full article.

    The only thing else the detail article will probably provide is a picture of the weapon rack which shows off all the transmute items we can earn with this event.

    I wonder if those weapons will actually look like they are made of deathknell shards.

    Ummm...there appears to actually be nothing really in the new CtA Event writeup? No descriptions of rewards? Even though it said they'd have more before the event went live?

    This was kinda my point exactly, the page that gave us a pic of some dwarfish looking character in a foresty outfit with antlers was all that I was ever able to find even on face book. I still cannot find anything that says whats available what is dropping and what you can potentially get, that information was revealed from my knowledge a day or two or at least the day of before the CTA actually started and thus far I can't seem to locate anything except the page that shows the foresty person with antlers.

    Unless i'm missing something but even their facebook feeds doesn't seem to say anything except that there is an issue with PVP queue times yet again.

    So to the people that seem to know what this is how about you just either link us to the page that we are missing, tell us where its at, or just tell us what is there. I'd personally would like to know if i'm farming for anything worth while, what the vendor is selling since I actually have 1000 medallions left over from the last CTA.

    Maybe this info hasn't updated to my timezone and location but in past I knew these things by now and so far their main webpage isn't even updated or at least it wasn't prior to me writing this.

    I appear to have solved my own riddle. It appears an email was sent out that actually gives out the exact information I wanted to know, maybe that is how I found out the last time. As of now I still don't see anything on main website news feeds but whatever page the email takes me to actually does give out all the necessary particulars about this CTA.

    BTW I do love the CTA events, just wish after running 30 skirmishes you were guarnteed to get the good drops, one of the events I ran the whole event and never once got any of the good stuff.

    The news post did go up a bit late, but if you were already farming the event, was there something preventing you from bopping over to the vendor and checking out the rewards?

    Yes, the CtA events are quite nice, but I guess they would be even more fun if you could actually play it... :D

    You could give us another day of the event, as today the game has been down hours already and in the beginning you couldn't que for the CtA for long time. Adding to this the fact that I and many others were just about to finnish the golem and get the price when the server went down the first time and instead of prize, had to spend injury kit after the crash.
    Give us 4 or more power/item bar profiles so we can change powers and items with one click that are suited for the situation.

    They have already announced that it is getting extended a day.
