Is it removed again this time or moved to somewhere? I do not see them in west archosaur where i normally go to. Nothing mentioned on franky's post about it either.

    Great I was getting ready to try it for the first time tonight and just found out its gone again.
    Wonder why the GMs dont say anything. Maybe the NPC is randomly disappearing and reappearing, I never saw a post about when it came back.

    This tournament mechanic has been removed from the game indefinitely, as it wasn't working correctly. The NPC's item turn-in functionality has been given to Jolly Old Jones, who can be found in any of the 4 races' starting areas.

    Could you give any word on what's wrong. Because I've been in it 5-6 times, havent seen any glitches at all. IF there should be anything it doesnt affect the event.

    could it be that u spawn on that bridge and need to relog to move? heck if thats the cost to have our enjoyment, then who cares?

    Could we get more information about "it not working properly"? Or, should we assume that it was removed because it gave free items that should be cash shop'd only? I did not find any sources of error in the tournament.

    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    Heaven forbid you get an item without cash shopping.

    Don't bother fixing it, just remove it.


    Gotta love how PWE handles problems.

    As noted above, sometimes it will not let you progress even after farming the chest.

    i thought it's because ajay died outside after getting killed in the tourny and dropped a plat charm outside since he was red.

    what was broken? i've never seen anyone in WC or in my guild say anything about having issues in there. i never had issues in there. whats the REAL reason you removed it?

    this was the most fun event in pwi i've seen, better than TW and CoA and Dragon Temple.

    if the issue is "it teleports you to a pk zone (bridge outside archo)", i'm sure everyone would rather have that than you removing this event. hell it cant be THAT hard to move it to inside archo in the coding.

    Heh interesting. Sanc never had that happpened before. Porting in South gate could be fixed for pve sever by turning blue name/checking for GS(guardian scroll) for pkers if thinking of dropping stuff might happen. As for pvp severs, i have never played/been so cannot say anything
    Also why isn't this mentioned in the Maintaince completed post~~?

    Definately sending a ticket very soon... Horrible HORRIBLE support. Seriously? First it's taken out, as stated in the patch notes.... Then YOU and was it Xarfox?... That made a post in the forums saying it will be put back in the game once it's fixed. Not put in the patch notes though... Then it appears "secretly" again for 2 or 3 weeks. Again, NOT in the patch notes. Now it's myseriously gone, and NOT in the patch notes, and now your saying it is "indefinitely not coming back"......

    WTF??? Wanna explain this? Nah, it's okayz. I'll just send a sweet ticket in for your department to explain the logic and "laziness" behind this. Another huge fail of the PW management team. Gratz ;)

    Really now...

    What was wrong with the Tournament NPC? As stated by a previous poster, it was a pretty fun event and without any prior knowledge of the player base who have enjoyed it.. it's removed. I just don't get it.

    I really just have so many things to say that I think would rather not say it cause some of them might be offensive. So I will just say "I'm disappointed ...".
