when enough mimics have been killed, every chest in the server will turn into a mimic for 15 minutes

to put it in other words:
fuck you, we hear you hate lag, so we got you a ton of it for xmas

I can't watch that cretin's vids anymore sorry FTS.
So sorry if I misunderstand.

WTF? 
How is that an event?
So you finished your EE raid and your chests appear before you and by fortunate coincidence, the mimic event starts and they all turn into mimics.
what then?
Do you still get your raid chest loot?

Who the hell is advising these muppets?

Can we also have every mimic chest trigger instant red alert? Because that would be FUN...
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

The lag produced by Crystal Cove and Mabar were not enough to force people to participate in the event and stop completing other quests. I believe the mechanics of this event will fix that.

I assume the mimic loot pile after killing it would give the original chest contents. I will also assume that the HH mimic bug will be reintroduced during this event, which would be amusing for raids.

Now you don't need to go to the event to experience the "fun" - it comes to you!! genius idea!  There is no escape.....  Smiley

Um, they can't update a few lines of the festival jester loot table - so forgive my skepticism on how they would go at making this change.
I can see the GM's preapring their macros for auto-close for tickets right now.

Oh yeah, looking fwd to this "feature"


I can see so many things that can go wrong with this idea....
Maybe they should have stuck t fixing ladders?   Huh

Not to be an asshole about it but for some reason I still don't feel the urge to install DDO after reading about this AWESOME event.

Turbine: You WILL take part in this event whether you want to or not!

Me: Looks like it's time for my DDO vacay. So long suckers!

You can talk to the event NPC and he will put an antimimic buff on you...Just for you though

Unless you find a way to convince the fucking puggers that you dont want the crappy mimic good luck ninja opening the chests yourself

This entire game is just a joke now. I never understood why you guys bitched soooo much about it cause i was relatively new, only like 2 years here. But now i fully understand.
Lost the will to play completely. Cry

I Hope that Raid Chests won't transform... but well Turbine...  Roll Eyes

Note that the 2014 PC has been mostly in vacation since U24, it was something that wasn't shown to us.
( and since the 2015 PC is not chosen yet, they never had a chance to look at it before it hit Lamania )

So the feedback they asked from the guys over at Lamannia Forums and server isn`t constructive?

They cant use people`s good ideas outside PC?

Sev layed out the next updates/events nothing was going to change his idea.

Already people asked certain changes from the devs at Lamannia

More motes at epic chests
Global countdown for free chests
Remove the antifarming shit

Only to be laughed at from Jerry
