Maybe it's obvious but I did a search and can't seem to find the answer to my question....

Why does it not announce Wraith Army Invasions any longer?

I started playing about 6 months ago and remember lots of announcements for the invasions but now that I'm a decent enough level to participate...I don't see them announced.

I participated in one today only because I just happened to be there when it started... It was awesome xp, coins and drops for my veno alt...

Is finding one only by chance now?

    Duke has been turned off....completely.

    Somehow, they couldnt figure out how to turn off the Duke screaming about AnyTimePacks, so they just switched him off completely.

    Its unfortunate. Now, its just by word of mouth about the wraith attacks.

    Ahhh. I was thinking it seemed to come around the time he quit yapping about everything... That's a downer. On the other hand I'm guessing I fared far better that not everyone knew the attack was going on today...

    Thanks for the info.

    That's a useful info, I think that should be a stick post about what was mod, just like Duke. o-o' I thought that this server have not Wraith Attack (And I'm about 100% sure that there's no Arch invasion either)

    Wraith attacks do exist. THey just don't anounce it anymore. It's a good thing for the people that actually are of the lvl of the wraith attack, and are at the area anyway. If the whole world would know, a lvl 20 wraith attack would swarm with lvl 90+ people, only giving the fastest hitting classes that one shot the mobs any real kills, and leaving the lowbies for who the wraith attack is meant with nothing
    9 out of 10 voices in my head say I'm not crazy... the 10th is singing the music of tetris

    I only knew of the wraith attack I was in today because I have another account on my laptop that catshops while i play on this account on my desktop. It's not inside the "safe zone" and the wraith's showed up and instant death... level 1 no xp so no no biggie... though it did hurt biz a bit til it was over.. guess the wraith's just didn't like what i was sellin.

    I disagree with this.

    The Duke was programmed originally to inform the server of the wraith attacks. Not very often will high level people go to low level wraith attacks, because of less xp (level difference penalty)

    Not to mention, not everyone sits around the 'assigned' level towns waiting for a wraith attack.

    The original way was good. Unfortunately, due to high demand of AnyTime Packs making Duke go hoarse:

    Click Me

    they decided to just turn him off completely. Which just kinda sucks. Veno's getting hercs/nix's, or getting their TT100 red weps, sage/rank weps....its all turned off. I feel bad for the guy, they put a gag on him and never took it off. No wonder why he rambles incessantly more in the streets of Arch b:sad
