Orpheal.8263 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Just a time killer for us where the only thing that will be new will be, that we can this time use mounts in the map wooohoooo Aside of this will be guaranteedly everythign else the same old warmed up old cold coffee as usual with no differences at all, and most likely also no new achievements in any kind of way to motivate also the veteran players which have done already everything of that stuff in the past to participate in these thigns again, unless your only motivation is farming/grinding gold/materials via permanently cicling through the ernemies in the crown pavilion in a zerg - boring... Stuff like this would be at least for everybody interesting, if there would be also some new challenging enemies of the niveau of Liadri to fight for those, which have done all of the older battles already, like gettign to a new state access only, if you have beaten first the 1st generation of fighters, to receive from then on access to a new deeper laayer of the crown pavilion where new enemies are waiting on us to fight them in 1v1 battles and where some new farming events are happening, so that this player can offer someing for new as also older players that is interestign to do. But the only new content on that map we will most likely see is a new mount race ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this stuff you wrote there, sounds more like your personal wish thinking, and stuff, that I personally would have wished to read from the official blogpost that annoiunces the return of this content, with imprvoed new content like mentioned by you there, but it wasn#t part of the blogpost ... However, I heard that also some kind of game magazines have reported also too about the returning event already. Was this text eventually copy pasted from a game magazine???

Ashen.2907 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I was not fond of the Labyrinthine Cliffs as I do not care for the alternate movement skills. I am looking forward to seeing the map with mounts available. I am looking forward to the Queen's Gauntlet. Some fun fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR is the Queens City, I doubt any full festival would be added to the other areas, because they would need a place to have it. Only Hoelbrak has enough open area. Then you would need a reason, the Lore to back up such a grand occasion. But, that said, they could have the leaders from each area come to DR. Some of the achievements were for escorting officials from each of the other cities (to the balloon towers from memory). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dewsitine.3645 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Fuck, the tickets that I kept finally deleted them since I thought we would never go back to the gauntlet. Oh well I can start again.

Not to put any salt into your wound, but I discovered last night that I still had them stored after all. :o Sowwy. P.S. Only a handful of them, though. Since I never participated in said event, I believe they were distributed for free to players via in-game message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
