Fair enough, but "we are working on it" takes literally few seconds to type

Thank you Travis and devs

1. C-boxes being back was a mistake that has been corrected.
2. This sub-forum is not ignored. Stuff posted here is read by the devs, even if they don't have the time to respond.

That the situation was corrected so quickly was a pleasant surprise and appreciated.

Thank you

Rewards for trial 80 and 100 now shows celestial transform in game.....?

[Wolf86PL]

So, the announcement dropped that Silver #4 starts in less than 8 hours. There are two major issues that, I am sure, players will want to be addressed BEFORE the event begins.

1) The event is starting on a Saturday again. Does this mean we will only have 8 days to play the event like with Bronze #4? Please consider ending the event after a full nine days even though that would mean the event ends on a Monday. Yes, Silver #4 has three fewer hours on the Event Timer. That ninth day though is especially important to people that want to not spend gems through the nose to upgrade things. I believe running the event a full nine days would be appreciated.

2) You have switched back from two Celestial Transforms to two Custom Celestial Items which also appear to only be Level 70. Further, gear crafting is still to be Ephemeral and will disappear at the event's end unless you transform the Ephemeral into a Celestial during the event. You can not convert the Ephemerals into a Celestial when you are only given TWO Custom Celestial Boxes which will only convert to two of the three Celestial Essences required for ONE Celestial Transform. Saving an Ephemeral item for after the event is not compatible with only two Custom Celestial Boxes. Either you need to reward at least THREE Custom Celestial Items or we need Celestial Transforms if you are going to leave the gear crafting as Ephemeral.

Please. Please. Please, address these two very important issues BEFORE the event begins.

Should work ther! HA

Keep in mind you will lost all good items you might craft if they don't fix the current issue. Think twice how to play (if play) to minimize your potential losses.

[Keaven]

No great harm in waiting to see if there are any changes.

I expect participation in this ANB will not be as worthwhile, but good for developing your warrior which won't matter how long you wait before starting.

Not going to affect your arcanist run much if you don't start it straight away unless you need the actual playtime because of availability.

[mahara]

It's everyone's guess right now. As long as they keep their mouths shut your guess is as good as anybody elses

[Montresor]

so interested in peoples thoughts because i'm not sure which way to go.
I originally planned to use ANB silver to buff up my arcanist & his gear from the two ephemerals we'd get to keep under the Bronze rules. i would then use gold to create a warrior with the cheaper unlocks.
but since the rewards are so vastly different in Silver i'm considering doing the warrior in Silver, but if they end up changing the rewards back to being the same as bronze, i'll be bummed i didn't go arcanist again.

what are peoples thoughts on the chances they actually either 1. made a mistake and meant this to be the same as bronze or 2. listen to players and make the rewards the same as bronze??

[Shilien]

Let me add a personal rant. They should have informed us they had changed the announced rules again or either have stayed ON to check if everything was going as intended. They should start Events BEFORE they go off on holidays (a Friday midday I suppose) to be ready to postpone the event if they see any sh1t and don't want to fix it on their holidays. Maybe 2 years of A New Bug is enough to come to this thought?

[Konstantin]

for the 80th trial you need to give a blue box, and for the 100th trial you need to give a transform. It will be logical and honest

[Montresor]

If the event really does have such poor rewards no way will I be spending the time or resources on it that I spent on bronze. Really hard to understand their logic on this.

[mahara]

Yeah you are probably right. This one comes close 2nd though

[Keaven]

Bronze was pretty awesome I thought, I haven't ended the event yet, or spent on the gems I used, so no love lost if I lose stuff. Got my first medals in the event heroes inbox so waiting for some kind of response before I try and use them lol.
