By weekend, do you mean right now untill sunday? :) Because some countries don't count friday as weekend. Just wondering wether I should go crazy farm right now or not.
EDIT: Okay, let me rephrase the question.
Will this be in effect starting this Friday US time or Saturday?
Anyone? :$
Well, considering it's still thursday in the U.S., I'd say not right now, no.
Okay, let me rephrase the question.Quote:

Keeping your post up. Apparently I started the same thread without bothering to do my research first. Regardless I hope we get an answer soon - it's friday arvo here = weekend to us!!!
I do wonder, though, that although the number of boxes and keys might increase the quality of the rewards might have been adjusted temporarily or permanently?
eg (and just to use round figures) if the drop rate for a horse from a box was 5% prior to this weekend would it be dropped to perhaps 2% over the weekend? Or if the drop rate for WSOTEK was 2% prior to weekend would it now be 1%?
I think over all it's great we get more gifts, and let's face it something for nothing if you don't buy the keys from the store but given the uproar and controversy of the current drop rate (or supposedly) of best items I do wonder. I suspect they might up the rate of the horses and temp drop the rate of WSOTEK.
Im going to guess the box drop rate will much higher than the key rate to increase store sales. Only time will tell though.Quote:

Stop doing that. It's against the code of conduct to "bump" posts. And really, it's just plain rude. The freaklin' announcement says "this weekend". The weekend is Saturday and Sunday. It probably will start Friday night, but really, does it matter? Are you going to change your life around for a chance at a lootbox?Quote:

Anything that brings me closer to a WSOC or anything that helps get 2nd or 1st age weapon is OK in my book, although I reckon my chances are nil. I'll just have to keep farming sigils and dribble them on to the AH to keep the price high
Reading the notes for the live testing of update 6 it seems they will be barter items in the main game soon anyway.Quote:

Actually, it is.Quote:

I find minimods much ruder than bump posts. I agree that bumping is against the forum ToS, but there was really no reason for you to respond in this manner.Quote:

This thread reminds me of Glengary Glenross...
"three BUSINESS days!"
great play; great movie!
To answer the question, yes, the event is enabled right now! Good luck finding those lootboxes and keys! :D
To answer the moderation question, yes, don't bump your posts because it's a violation. :) You're lucky my hammer's behind me and I'm too tired to turn around to get it, so consider this a warning. ;D
*Steals your Hammer* Sorry, my warden needed that :)Quote:
