    TW moved back from 14:00 PST to 13:30 PST to make room for NW
    NW at 20:10 CET
    Converting times to Server:
    TW at 13:30 Server ... Why did this change? There was no conflict and this makes TW closer to NW.
    NW at 11:10 Server (lasts until 13:10)

    What if instead of CET they meant EST?

    So somewhere CET got used instead of EST as was intended ... but what will the actual time be? Wait and see.

    So if the Cross Server TW instance isn't coming with the update can you reset the TW map then? Because the cross server TW map is affected by land count. Since its not coming with this mini expansion there's no real reason to not reset the TW map.

    Where are you getting that the guild needs 5 lands? Wouldn't it be better then to just reset map now and implement cross server tw in like a month then?

    No, they aren't resetting it so that factions can get 5 lands to participate in the new event.​​

    They only need 5 lands to participate in the cross server TW instance Treasure Island. Which from the patch notes is NOT coming this expansion. So once again I raise the question why isn't the map being reset?

    Regarding NW...
    I think the time for Sunday NW is good for most people, but Friday NW should be left to west or east coast times. Most people in the US won't be able to participate on Friday.

    Then again, if Friday was US based time and Sunday EU based time I'd never bother to wake up for Friday NW when I can just wait for Sunday to participate. Many EU players might feel the same way, so then we'd still have imbalance. Still an US based time on Friday would also benefit the players in the Australlian time zone I think? Two different time slots is really the best option to give everyone a chance to participate at least in one of the two NWs.

    Regarding TW map reset...
    I find it a bit weird they won't reset map now if we're not getting cross-server TW yet. Top factions will just take over the map. One of the two factions I am in will most likely get kicked off the map this week, and I doubt they have a chance to get back on and gather five lands. Assuming that's the number of lands needed. Well, maybe we'll pull ourselves together, and manage to get some lands from other Tier 2 factions, but right now the members just want a break from TW.

    I understand wanting the strongest faction to represent your server. I agree with that, but I saw it as fair to let any faction try out the event at the beginning. I mean over time it's probably just going to be the tier 1 factions competing anyway. That's how I see the situation. Maybe I'm wrong and non top factions aren't even interested in the new TW.

    Regarding the new BH...
    I like FSP as BH because then you get to do both in one go. It's already been a long time (two years?) since New Horizons. People have had plenty of time to rebirth at least once, along with rebirthing their alts. Sucks for new or returning players but how many of those do we even get?

    It's not that I am fine with with locking people out of a BH, but I don't think it's that bad because most people should be able to do it, and we still have the other BHs available. Remember when we used to skip Lunar because of the fee? Sad to see BH TT go away though...

    *To account for the times of cross-server Nation Wars, the 2pm Sunday timeslot for Territory Wars has been moved to 1:30pm.​
    For the NA servers, this poses a bit of a problem.

    For the West Coast, since the new 11AM NW timeslot runs all the way up until 1:10-1:20 PM, there would be no time to gather your TW squad and get ready as most TW factions start preparations 45-60min before TW. For East Coast servers, that's 30 minutes for TW to complete. Even in a no show, it takes roughly 10 minutes to get to the other side and kill the crystal with 4 catas. With people actually there, it would take longer.

    The times before this update may not be ideal for everyone, but a certain level of balance existed (more in favor of NA, but the company is located in NA making it understandable.)

    It might be more effective to have an alternating schedule.
    Something like:
    Friday: 20:10 CET - Cross-server NW, 20:10 PST - Normal NW
    (For the Normal NW, the time could be whatever it normally is for your server sans the EU server which could match EST or PST)
    Sunday: 20:10 PST/EST (whatever could be decided upon as an appropriate time) Cross-server NW.

    The TW timeslot could be left alone for an appropriate time allowed to complete TW.

    But this is unfair for EU as they would only get ONE NW. I feel this compromise is better than before as by this argument, EU had ZERO before.

    Oh please let this be true! 20.10CET would just be stupid. The majority of the players are from the US, most servers are US servers, and the EU server didn't even exist when most started playing, so why put it on a European time?! I am European myself, and I would not be happy with this, considering the majority of people would not be able to participate, and therefore no one to go up against..

    This somewhat reminds Kitty of her ol' good "Moar randomness to BH100s"-suggestion. o.o

    Kitty suggested making almost every boss in lvl 99+ instances into possible BH1/BH2 bosses. But she faced strict opposition because FSP and UCH would set a RB-limit. But now PWI ish making Mushi as BH-boss setting that RB-limit anyway.

    Kitty's a little worried about that "Instance Combat Capability rating" as people will most likely start asking for that for FSJ and FWS Mobless. Since it's entirely stat-based, it doesn't take skill into account at all and Kitty happens to be one of those with relatively bad stats (because she's too busy RB-leveling her army to do all dem primal dailies for bloods for passives) and relatively good playing skill >.<'

    Kitty also wonders what that PV-reset with lucky coins works. We'll see if we get rid of the PV-opener pain.

    this makes no sense - quoting from the OP:
    *Nation Wars are now cross-server. Each server will be assigned a different nation (at random), and battles will occur on Friday and Sunday at 20:10 CET.
    *To account for the times of cross-server Nation Wars, the 2pm Sunday timeslot for Territory Wars has been moved to 1:30pm.

    IF CET is the correct time zone to base NW off of - This would mean that NW is now at 2:10 PM EST, with TW starting at 1:30 PM, and if it runs 3 hours until 4:30 - everyone in that TW misses out on NW. Not good. For west coast NW would be at 11:10 AM running until 1:10 PM and they still make the 1:30 PM TW time on sunday by the scrape of their nose.

    OTOH if the times were based on EST instead:
    West coast NW would begin at 5:10 PM, and if theres a sunday TW it would begin at 1:30 PM and last until 4:30 PM if it runs the full 3 hours, giving players all the opportunity to make both TW and NW with 40 minutes between to restock on supplies used in TW, more than the currently listed time. For EU players, NW would begin at 2:10 AM and run till 4:10 AM, which im sure SOME will make, but not entirely sure of all - if said players actually reside in the EU rather than the US. EU will not be affected TW wise by this time slot.

    NW *could* be shifted a couple hours earlier to begin around 6:10pm EST, 3:10pm PST, and 12:10 AM CET - but that would put west coast players potentially missing half a nation war on sundays, though better than east coast members potentially missing an *entire* nation war.

    WTB time zone synch stone to resolve this issue.
    By the light of the moon, our true forms are revealed.

    That's a really big mistake / typo if that's the case then.
    Gotta love time btw;

    20:10 CET = 11:10AM PST (west coast servers(?)) = 2:10PM EST (east coast servers(?))
    Means NW is from:
    * 20:10 CET - 22:10 CET (8:10pm - 10:10pm)

    * 11:10AM PST - 13:10PM PST (TW is at 13:30PM PST, so what exactly is the issue here? Being some hardcore muh serious business TW faction that requirest 2 hours upfront everyone in vent/raidcall for coordination?)

    * 2:10PM EST - 4:10PM EST

    Would mean that you have 20 minutes after NW to get your **** into TW, but lets be honest, when do friday and sunday slots even get filled anymore for TW except for right after a reset where you TW against mobs anyway?
    I don't see the problem to be honest, you either have 20 minutes to get into TW or 40 minutes to get into NW. Either should be more than enough.

    On a more requested "fix" note:
    *The once-per-day restriction on entering the Endless Universe has been removed. Completing the quest after killing Ghost Wing will award you with an additional Tuc Su Toxin.
    Well it's about time.

    On a finally note, but imo could use some more restrictions:
    *Nation Wars now requires level 100 and a cultivation level of Aware of the Myriad or Aware of the Void to enter.
    Add rebirth 100 to that as well, would filter out even more​​

    Welcome to the **** timezone PWI :)

    Btw, what about cross Server TW? There is no info about it on the patch notes, so is it not being implemented?

    what cross server TW?
    The Battle for Treasure Island mentioned in this
    Coming Soon! We would like to give each faction more time to conquer territories.
    wrong mindset there, the map doesnt have an unlimited amount of free lands to be taken.

    you cause the opposite! the strongest factions already have around 10 lands and will just get more. whoever somehow still had 5, will most likely lose them in the following weeks. or other strong factions force alliances to block certain disliked opponents from entering the event.

    ... For EU players, NW would begin at 2:10 AM and run till 4:10 AM, which im sure SOME will make...

    I am sure some from US will also be able to attend at CET...

    On a more serious note, CET seems to be the best timezone for the events, making it early afternoon and late afternoon for both US and EU players, I would maybe change friday nw to saturday?

    If you sugest something with nw being at 2am for EU players, that is no solution at all, it is only shifting "your problem" to someone else....

    Seriously, they should have reset the TW map now, this week. It's been a bit more than the 3 months, and now at this rate we honestly wont even get TW map reset after 6 months. tiger-18.gif
    I mean, if the "Battle for Treasure Island" first will come in another 3 months, and then they wont reset the TW map when that gets live either. It's afterall 3 months ago now since we were told cross-server nation wars is "coming soon". So I wouldn't be surprised if this takes 3 months too. And of course it wouldnt make sense to reset when it's finally live. So, +SomeMoreTime before reset can take place, because factions apparently need to gather more land for the "BTI" which only allows less and less factions to participate as time goes on, as the top tier factions will take over more and more of the map.

    US kids mad? 4Head.png4Head.png4Head.png

    EU players played your stupid TZ for years, then they had been forced to reroll on EU serv, time to adapt shall you?

    And it's total bs that US ppl playing dawnglory are off the events, look at our TWs... i have yet to see a TW where NA players did not attend... even @ 2 PM, (except for the bankrydog carebears egg-2.gif) figure 8 PM that would be NW time!!!!

    8 PM TW slot always have steady attendance from US players on dawnglory (which is CET), so what are you guys complaining about?

    When we had 9 AM TW slots, how many of you showed up to attend TWs?
    it's still the weekend for gods sake, it's just a matter of do i like to game this weekend or do else? If youd like to game you will play any hour slot as always, else you will do otherwise
    so why mad...
