Really? Does that mean they don't have to do the weekly Wednesday reboot? WTF?

Probably shutting off Revels.  Dunno.  I don't think they do wednesday downtime when they do updates on Monday or Tuesday.

At least that is my recollection.

They apparently shut down Hayweird's today too.  I am guessing the reboot to remove the Mazar fest.
  

If you can roll it you can smoke it.  If you can carve it you can smoke with it.

They can shut it down without shutting down the game for 10 hours...Like all the other events it's a Toggle...

It wasn't released into the wild on any site. Not including PMs of course. So nothing is safe.  Fuck it time to release a hellball.

I saw one post talking about it, but was quickly redacted.  Crowd sourced QA isn't working out too well for Turbine.

Is that the best you have? Sad day. The vault had nothing before this was shut down.  PM's only to the remaaning 8 ppl plus socks. And it was weak.

I tried the 'turn off and on the second rune' but it didn't result in any more mats being awarded.  So why bother?  The run was still a fast one, much faster than Lordsmarch Plaza for the same number of all mats.
  

No, let me be Frank.

I did what I did intentionally and while my primary purpose was not to annoy the other Vaulties, I acknowledge that it was a side effect.


Smart people don't elicit "side effects."  They understand in advance the consequences of their actions.

boobies is on the 26th... before I left to see my Family, Haywierd was closed Friday... 2 days after I came back...

Trust me, when I ends up knowing about something, It means that it's in the open... Somewhere.
Usually in a thread nobody bothered to look at. The rest is eventual experimenting for the exact method.
Obviously I didn't experiment that one, I visisted Night Revel with a single character, IIRC I did two quests with long lasting keys from last year, that included Haywierd, I was there for the phat first time XP on that character.

It was posted, approx 10 hours before they 'half' fixed it. Heyweird they fixed fast, but Lordsmarch was still doable for an additional half day. This was just before the weekend before last.

basically you needed everybody in the party to click and open the urn window, and do nothing, don't back off, don't acknowledge it, just leave it up untouched. Once everybody had it open, 1 person closed it. Do that on every urn with capped characters on the lvl 35 version with a full party of 6 and you got 54 of everything each completion.

I found out about it about 6 hours before they fixed it. Sad

You make it sound like it was current?
This was fixed over a week ago.
Or at least it was when I tried it?
The Heyweird runes would not toggle.

It was a nice find though - especially for those who wanted any of the Revels reward crap.

LOL.  Still two weeks behind eh?  You probably missed the fun stuff in Lordsmarch, too.

This was still very current we farmed it this way this last week using the Druid and arti pet on rotation afer summoning and dismissing them...macro it when you sleep...

Agree though the night revels stuff is crap but the augments sell well on the cannith asah...free shards are free shards imo Smiley

Okay, did not know it was still working.
I wasted some time trying to do it, and it didn't work so I just applied the "fuck it" approach, as the Revels stuff didn't excite me.

It just blows my mind that after so long turbine have not upgraded the special event loot of Mabar and the Cove...the loot was OK'ish back then but they are in serious need of some TLC and maybe some ml28 upgrades...

Once upon a time all the festival loot in general was 'end game' gear. But that was before epic casual.
