    If you don't mind me asking, what is the thinking behind reactiving the invite a friend's program for only two weeks?
    I believe your missing friend has to be offline for twenty days to even be able to send them a reminder.

    I dont know why they removed it in the first place as its an integral system in PWCN. There is no reason to not keep it forever and ya I agree. Only 2 weeks will not be enough to keep up with the other event and to get anything possible if you saved the Cloud Blossoms til now if you dont have 50 offline friends already.

    @thenamesdomino can you guys please consider increasing the duration of "Invite a friend" to at least 1 month or 2 months? Thank you very much :D

    Damn, I was so happy when orinj said the system was coming back, I thought it was permanent, but not anymore :/
    Some days is better than nothing, but still, I really hoped it came to stay.

    Hi there. The XTourny is still in discussion. It will definitely happen. We're just working on logistics.

    Hey orinj, any possibility of the friend system staying permanently?

    It might, but I think what's more important is the scroll remaining permanently, right? :P Or do y'all really have friends to invite?

    Ofc it's about the scroll xD To be honest, probably out of the 500+ requests I sent only like 10 people actually returned :pensive:
    Although it doesn't make much sense in the first place. You invite them back, they get an ingame mail which they can only read when they return, so, they have to return to see that you want them to return xD
    Maybe if it could somehow be modified to at least be an Arc mailbox request since some people left to play other PWE games (not everyone ofc, but it would be a better way to give it exposure without spamming actual emails :x) but idk. These things are always complicated.

    Actually, the Legacy Mark item is what really made it useful. Sure, the scrolls are good too, for the current event, but exp boost is nice to have when lvling in PV or doing primal for vitae.

    Before anyone mentions Ancient Gift from the scrolls, it isn't a 100% you get an Ancient Gift, and also it doesn't compare to the Legacy Mark buff.

    Sorry bud, but it won't happen next week. Working with an overseas Devs requires coordination and lead time. Probably in the next 2 weeks, but if we can crank it out in one, we will do so. Cheers.

    08/03/16 Could we push for that date.

    That way it will match up again to start at the start of the month rather than the end. I can also set a reminder to remind you guys its due in say 03/02/16 6 Months again. but otherwise I think it would hit some important dates. Like New Year / Chinese New Year.

    This is something I think players would like to know in advance. Can you also let us know whats going on with XTW please?

    Thanks.​​

    This is pretty much why saying "we'll reset the TW map after three months", and then not paying attention to it until after three months have passed and people raise hell on the forum is such a stupid idea.

    I don't understand why PWE has such a hard time keeping up with what they say they will do.​​

    @orinj i just want things by the book, so i'd be happy if even 1 day (the one that was missed) could be added at next reset in game (or at another point which shall be announced) . At least, to have one thing clear once and for all.

    Kidding, lol. Here's a code for 10x Invitation Scrolls.

    x4gvQaKG

    Usable 3x times per account, in case you have three toons; or unless you want all 30 for one character, lol.

    Code expires at the end of the month. Enjoy!

    @orinj if it's possible, let us know about any changes by the end of the month. I'd like to know clearly what characters to send this code to. Thank you! :)
