    The word 'fix' implies its broken, which it is not.
    The time works for some and does not for others. They cannot cater to everyone. This is one of the few that actually works very well for me, while many others do not.

    Title should read "Change event timing because it doesn't suit me personally"

    Oooh! I know a bit!

    Just last night around 11:30pm PST I was in Sanctuary (picking up a Huggy Hare Justice Order Quest). From the justice Envoy I saw this big Ethereal Lantern, so I went to take a look.

    There was the NPC 'Lush Snow' and bunch of other lanterns. She had two quests for me. One was do able solo, the other needed (at least) a female-male squad with the female in the lead.
    (Looking at the pwdatabase, she actually has 3 quests, but two are gender specific, one for guys, one for girls, one that needs both.) The quests in pwdb state they are for L30+, but do note that the local mobs are in the 70s!

    I've only done the solo-male quest - which mine up a bunch of L? (L150) mobs with 777 hp.



    ABOUT WHEN THE EVENT OCCURS

    In the game world I took this event around 22 o'clock. Do not confuse this with server time, this is that mini sun/moon symbol in the top left of your map-info interface bar.

    Going by the Chinese/Japanese legend for the bridge of birds (not necessarily magpies) one night a year all the birds take mercy oon a separated couple (one divine, the other mortal) and form a bridge (between heaven and earth) so they can meet once a year.

    So best I can guess is that the event happens when the GAME WORLD is in night time.



    ALSO NOTE

    The wording for the 'Best Love' title indicates it needing 5 tanabata cards. The tracker indicates you need only three. I think this Title may be Male-Only.

    The solo-male quest was not immediately repeatable during the event - HOWEVER, when the server time ticked over to midnight, I was able to do it again - So it is either once per in-game night, once per server day, or there is some other cool down period.

    Don't trust the pwdb's word on Exp, I got ver 100k Exp just for the solo male quest. The pwdb says it's 25.



    The female quests seem much more involved, and I can't pin down if they get a title out of it, so any lady players out there fill in the gaps please!

    Jesus... Current time makes it impossible to attend if you got a job, be the person American or European. The time is horrible and should be changed, period.

    I have a full-time 48 hr/week job, in Atlantic Time (Canada) and it works for me perfectly.
    Many other events do not, but I realize they aren't going to please everyone, cannot accommodate everyone and I just have to miss some events. Not the end of the world....

    The Event runs at other times! Not just in the morning. I posted my experience with it in message 11 in this thread.

    Standard times are there for a reason... Jesus. Vast majority of population work hours which make attending 8am event impossible, be it American or European player. Making event at such time during week is completely ****, arguing the time is good is just as ****.

    agree NW sucks huge donkey balls for us europeans because it starts at 2am here and who can paticipate when you got a job?
    Thats right. Not many.

    The time for the new event suits me very well so it can stay like it is.

    We got EU server, NA servers ought to cater to NA timezones. How effing hard it is to understand? Now if this was to cater for EU players, the time would still suck. It should be 12pm(on NA servers) in which case work shouldnt really come in the way for making the event. This entitled euro **** is just sickening to listen.

    If the event is so darn important just quit your job. This entitled real life **** is just sickening to listen (too*). b:bye

    Euros be cute as hell in this thread. Euro server's been open for years now. Shoulda switched when it opened if timezone is that big of an issue. That being said, this currently should be an issue for Euros on Morai since it will be at 8am for them there. ;x

    Also, I have personally argued for an early timeslot for NW myself so that argument doesn't hold water. b:surrender

    Anyway, just don't see why it can't even be at like sometime between 12pm to 3pm. Slightly more reasonable.

    I saw the red chat for that event around 4pm on Morai though. Are you sure it only starts at 8am, or is the event time random?

    You do realize I am European myself? I simply understand what playing on NA server means regarding event times. This entitled whining is nothing but stupid.

    Hellloo-ooo!

    I've said before - the event takes place in in-game night time. It was going on last night 11:00pm PacificTime on Sanctuary.

    I'm pretty sure can only play it once per day, but that it runs several times durnig a server day - during an in-game night.

    Im sick of hearing this because i was here long before morai was even a thing and had well geared characters which i dont just throw away to switch servers.
    This argument is just an selfish argument you guys keep saying because you could not give a flying f... on other people.

    Keep it real, a huge amount of people playing PWI (Mind its international and not PWNA or something) are from europe and where shut off from good event times for years now.

    I would like to see the event time either change, or be offered at additional times.

    The times that I understand this event runs, I'm either working, or sleeping.

    Even for players who are students, this schedule as it is...doesn't even allow them to go to school without missing the event, so I do feel that a change may be in order.

    harsh words from someone who feels good by stomping lower geared players ;p

    For my standarts im well geared, can fight back to normal equiped people (No not like people like you who think they are something better by oneshot people) and have fun ingame.

    Trust me, when there would be an item to switch servers with all my items, i would. Why? because people like you annoy me like no tomorrow.
