Hi Guys.
Good work on trying to get the servers back online, and I wish you luck..
In terms of the current CTA. Could the time be extended to make up for not being able to do this due to the current server downtime?
Cheers

This was not a brief server shutdown, this has been a major issue across many (if not all) PWE games, and it is now infringing on a time that many people will be attempting to log on for weekend play time. An extension of the event for 1 additional day is a reasonable request IMO. Hopefully the devs will agree.
Edit: Please do not get me wrong, I understand that bad things happen, I am not complaining about the shut down. It is obviously a serious bug/equipment failure and only hindsight will tell them if it could have been avoided. I just hope that a 1 day extension is something that the devs will consider appropriate recompense. (And I will not even be able to take advantage of the proposed extra day, got too much work to do next week, lol)
Two things I would like to know.
1) Is the CTA going to be extended due to neverwinter being down? This is a time limited event that we are loosing out on due to neverwinter being down.
2)) Is invoking going to be taken into consideration? I have a number of toons that were at 5/7 6/7 4/7. Is the invoking going to be reset to zero or can they all as a matter of good faith be set to 7/7 when I next login?

2) It is unlikely that they are going to do anything about the invocation timers...

Just wonder how many other people are at 7/7 or where ever they want there invoking to be and are going to be set back to zero. Be a nice touch if they could do something on this.....
Don't worry about it. Your chances that you could have gotten a C Ward are quite slim anyway.

As for myself, I only ever use the coins for Sharandar Treasures so it's not a big deal - and I collected them yesterday~
CTA are almost always 4 days long. Almost always weekends. Some of us don't get weekends off! Some of us don't have days, nights, or graveyard free for play time.
Some of us (like me) have varied shift changes. Some (like me) have 4 on 2 off. Some (like me) don't have a traditional straight 8 hr shift, some work 10, 12 etc. So in a 6 week cycle I might be lucky and get a weekend off, but more likely am some were in the middle of the week is more likely.
The only CTA I've actually got to enjoy (other than the Christmas one since it ran 2+weeks) is the Pit fight one, it actual fell right on my weekend..it was great. But all others since I've go very little experience of them.
Suggested solution:
Make CTA a actual full week long. Each month when CTA time rolls around, rather a measly 4 days make it a full 7 days, this would allow those of us not lucky enough to have the exact 4 days off of a current CTA, be able to experience it to it's full glory on those additional 3 days. Somewere in those 7 days everyone has a decent chance to try it ouy.
The drop chance of the only item that counts is that low that 0/7 or 7/7 doesn't really matter - you won't get it anyway
So relax about it - I stopped invoking the day peridot / aquamarine was added to the table
CTA ... what is that ? oh the skirmish giving you some 30k ad companions and a transformation for your weapon ...
