    Personally I would have handed duke over to them ages ago I hate him sticking his nose in others business then telling everyone on the server.

    Kitty would have handed him over to wraiths, too. He once cheated 10 coins from Kitty, when Kitty had just entered Archosaur after doing the beginner quests.f:fume

    Even the guards of Archosaur sometimes question if they really have to protect Duke. Somebody could give them some holiday right when the wraiths are coming f:cute

    But...the DQs and 3 Demon/Sage Event Cardsf:money

    Long live Duke Blacke and the free fashion and refining aids!f:grin

    As a newer player without any high level character I have a suggestion: Break up the assault into different level ranges. North gate: Level 30-50, East: 50-70, South: 70-90, West (where everyone always is): 90+. That gives people of all level ranges something to do.

    As for the time... I suggest moving it to Saturday.

    Just an fyi, East Arch is where the harbor is making it kinda difficult to put mobs there unless you want all water or airborne mobs while interesting seems pointless. The level areas also kinda defeats the purpose of this game being an MMO. You're playing and competing with 100's of players its part of the game. Moving it to Saturday conflicts with the ONLY good Territory War day of the 3 available, the people who participate in that wouldn't be to happy, I know I wouldn't if the only day of the week I could TW Assault on Arch happens, I'd be quite frustrated.

    As for my opinions on the Assault event. I love it even though I can't do them because of my work schedule most of the time. Its a great opportunity to farm DQ with minimal effort and with enough time you can farm an event card or more. Don't really see a bad thing about this event. Especially if you can team up with you guildmates and zhen a good portion of the mobs. It goes so smooth. Drops and dq points are even better in 2x.

    Nice idea for the different levels. I haven't been in the event in a long time, but I enjoyed doing them when I had time.

    This week's question:

    What do you think of the Archosaur Assault event?

    I enjoy squadding together with friends to do the event and nabbing a few sweet DQ points and coin, but I dislike how monotonous it is. I'm not even a cleric and I find myself in an eternal yawn. f:tired

    since DQ - Items below 80 dont give money anymore the first part of that event is pretty useless. low lvls can buy fc and lvl much faster that way.
    also the event is pretty long which means you expect that people do the same stuff over hours......... how boring

    another point is that on Harschland a pker army going arround arch and kill everyone, so basicly most people give up pretty fast. that the biggest problem on public events on pvp server. people cant really do them cause other people camp the area to kill them.....

    and ofc as a event it is not often enough, since it was meant to be a major event
    private server run it every satuarday regulary reliable, and the settings of thos server are similar to pwi.

    and at the very last.... every event which is bounded to a specific time sucks for a international wanna be game like PW INTERNATIONAL ..... i never saw the tiger event which is each monday, just because it is 3 am in my country when it starts b:angry



    on the other hand, any event is better than nothing b:surrender

    Personally, the event is just to lure ppl out on the pvp servers. Really a waste of time on those servers. By the way, when are you guys going to remove the 1/2 damage that archers do on close range targets. Archers are the ONLY CLASS with this restriction and it should be removed. The damage index has already been nerfed, so please remove the 1/2 damage restriction to make it fair.b:thanks

    thats why you can have double client running and they have the auto pot so you slap your seeker there and do TW on main lolb:laugh

    I didnt do it cause uh the demon sage event cards to me are just useless lol.

    they never update the shop that you use em in, no new items same old **** useless hp / mp charms ect ect

    then there is what I would think the only motivator is the mounts flyers and fashion but since I got all the flyers / enough annimounts to feed an army and dont care for the fashion ...

    yeah maybe if they put wedding packs in the event shop could be worth doing it or putting the platinum hp / mp in event shop when they put em into the cash shop..

    That tw thing would be because you are on Harshlands xD I miss doing tw but like the arch event I cannot do it. Work rules. The same reason I cannot NW, that darn work schedule. But 2-3 hour wars on Harshlands are pretty much over and have been for a long while now. You have your random ones and they are few and far between. Granted I have not payed nearly as much attention these past few months as I used to so correct me if I am wrong but the Harshlands guilds have sort have been...set in stone so to speak (whether they are under one name or another).

    Back on topic. I do wish the Arch Event would happen EVERY Friday so some of us have a chance of seeing it once in a while whether it be people with work schedules, people in various time zones etc.
