    Regarding the current issue: People tried to enter using other characters (not the ones that disconnected) but it says cross-server battlefield is congested.​​

    To clarify, if those alt characters try to go to any other maps -- including any other maps that might be on the cross-server -- it works fine, right? It's just that no characters can get to the Dragon's Conquest map.

    It is only affecting the cross-server TW battle instances.​​

    Gotcha, thanks. That's good info. For everyone in the thread, can you confirm the below?

    1. At 11am PST (right when the event started), everyone got disconnected from the cross-server.
    2. After a few minutes, you were able to log back in and get to the gulch.
    3. Because it was past the initial entrance period, no one was able to get into Dragon's Conquest proper after the disconnect.
    4. No one is experiencing any ongoing issues with being able to change maps, log out/in, no problems with items or XP. Right?
    We were about 5 mins into the battle before the DC. We entered xserver about 10 mins before event. Entered instance at 11pst, waited 4 mins for the instance to start and about 5 mins later dc.

    You have to be in PK mode.​​

    Could not attack anyone also inside of this TW map. Other guildmates could. It casts a skill, but no effect, like enemy is in the safe zone.
    Right, PK mode, that is not good for our servers.

    So... does that mean that I can stay blue name and just go hit on the dragon unopposed?

    I had to this too. Others could attack me, but I couldn't attack anyone. I could cast abilities (and heals), and even use attack skills, but they did no damage. Some thinks it's related to PK mode. (All before the server crashed. Then couldn't get back in.)

    Overall, a pretty huge flop. Waited all week, and got to play for 2 whole minutes, then couldn't re-enter.

    And by the way since we are going on the EU server as in Nation War this will not be any different. We will be outnumbered 2/1 due to 8pm is the prime time for everyone to play and 10:30 am is not. And yet since we cannot come in first (ever) due to these times we are not compensated for the inequality.

    Yes. At least, that's what it looked like for the two minutes of battle time I had.​​

    This is not an NW QQ thread, go elsewhere with this.​​

    Actually, we had some kind of rollback in this server after the mass DC/crash. The chest I've opening between 10:55 and 11:00 came from 1 to 22 again. So, yes we have experienced issues with items during this event.

    Also, no one could login immediately in cuz we were getting this Error message "Abnormal Server Data" (but this seems get fixed after a few minutes off)

    After we finally got in around (11:17pm) no one could go into the battle anymore getting a message like this "The battle is in progress. Check later" would always show up.

    My thoughts exactly. This is a rough day, but that would be soooooo much worse.

    Just confirmed with stakeholders on the plan. Making a proper forum post, but no, Dragon's Conquest will not be available today. We'd need to bring in the devs, QA, and NetOps all to try to debug the issue, and even then, we've already missed the window for today. :/ Sorry folks, we'll let you know how our investigation of it goes over the next week.

    I'm assuming that everyone will be reimbursed, but still waiting on the official post with details.​​

    1. it was around 8minutes into the event, meaning at approx 11.08am PST
    2. we could log in to char selection menu, but upon trying to enter the game we got thrown back out and received the following error message:
    http://www.fotos-hochladen.net/view/ce10ybuge3j46.jpg

    3. after we made it back into wargold gulch we couldnt enter the battle anymore, getting told this:
    http://www.fotos-hochladen.net/view/ce3onbtu8vj4h.jpg

    4. after the mass dc nobody who wasnt already on wargod gulch (Raging Tides server according to arc) could access the cross-server-tw/nw server for i dont know how long...tried it myself around 10mins after the dc, couldnt enter (see image below) and then tried again at around 11.45am PST and was able to enter wargod gulch, but not the battle itself (same error message as all the others)
