Something needs to be done about kraken/black dragon for the eu/no asian player base.
Agreed. After multiple polls and days of arguing / discussions the gm's have managed to select times that specifically cater to only EU and nothing else even when the original post specifically stated it wanted changes for Asia as well. It was intentional to select times where NA would be working, same for brazil and Asia/OCE would be asleep. Also by having the timers stretched out e.g kraken being 12:30 and bd 5pm staying up for a few hours or waking up early is not even an option as the timers are intentionally stretched out enough to where it would cost your whole night.I was in favor of changing the time of BD and kraken
However, the options available now are meaningless options for Asians.
Rather, I think the original time is better.
In Asia, the BD time is 5 a.m.
Asians cannot participate in BD
kraken is also late at night
As for kraken, most Asians cannot participate.
Only Asians who play AR until late at night can participate.
Asians are expected to have very few people.
If this option is maintained
I will not vote for this
Because the original time or the changed time is meaningless to Asians
Nice to see you more vocal than in the past and you also make a good point. I thought the weekend was perfect but it did not work out. Keeping it 100The intention of this post was never to make it more accessible to players, it was about having less lil critters there to contest their boss kill. Thats why they no longer show up on weekends currently, even tho they all claim they can attend the current weekend spawn times. The proposed time is literally later in the night for China than the current spawn timers are for EU, as well as moving it to a weekday, rather than a weekend which couldve actually made it more accessible to China. All in all this has been nothing more than a sad play to dodge fighting us for the boss.
Also lets not forget that China voted over 1/3 of the total votes for a weekend spawn timer change, and Sjinderson deemed them all "fake" effectively silencing an entire community of the server.
it's sad to see an entire community of people who were being apparently advocated for in this thread all banned from the forums, the 50 votes we lost were from China and they're saying they were all banned from here.Nice to see you more vocal than in the past and you also make a good point. I thought the weekend was perfect but it did not work out. Keeping it 100
it does look like the time would be bad for most people that work during the week for any time zone. As far as people dodging fighting Pirates for the Boss it does
look that way and I am not super excited how this all worked out. I guess when you are West or East you can not be as selective with who you PvP with at times but
just settle for whoever shows up that day.
If i were in a group that killed BD but it was not contested by Pirates the victory would feel cheapened to me. I agree not a
good look. Who knows maybe once a good majority learn the mechanics the other BD spawns will create some fun pvp that is East vs West vs Pirates? Maybe not but
who knows stranger things have happened. It is what it is * shrugs *
Yea these time options are straight trash. I understand that there may be overlapping events and stuff that get in the way but then players need to choose what is important BD/Kraken or "other stuff". If the other stuff is too important to give up a few times a week than you should be doing that content. Choice is a great thing and giving EU/Asian players a chance to contest during the weekend was perfect if true all round pvp inclusion is the goal.it's sad to see an entire community of people who were being apparently advocated for in this thread all banned from the forums, the 50 votes we lost were from China and they're saying they were all banned from here.
please keep in mind these are people who have to circumvent their own countries internet restrictions to connect to this site to vote, mind you this is a literal crime in their country and to just be cast out of the voting simply because they didn't have accounts made already because of such restrictions they were all considered alts or whatever and banned.
the proposed times are all worse for China, Sooth has been saying this for days but everyone ignores him, Sooth has overlapping timezones with China he is fully aware of how it will affect them and himself. @Blessing also has stated how horrible the current times are and that they would make attending these spawns even harder for them.
All I'm asking is for @Sparkle to wake up and read some of this over, grasp that the Chinese accounts were in fact real players who are trying to voice their vote but were shot down by a heavy handed banning. The previous poll weekend spawn change was a largely favored option until they were all banned. Please wake up and be more available to communicating and support your Chinese player base as well rather than exile them by banning them off the forums while people are simultaneously using them as a reason to push EU time changes when they directly have a negative impact on the entire Asian community of this server.
Agreed. After multiple polls and days of arguing / discussions the gm's have managed to select times that specifically cater to only EU and nothing else even when the original post specifically stated it wanted changes for Asia as well.
so youre saying you care about the asia/chinese community but picking the 3:30pm spawn time which is 3:30AM for them while rest of us picked the best 12:30PM, i like that mentalitythe proposed times are all worse for China
I agree with almost all what you have said this type of content requires a lot of communicating practicing and organizing I'm against giving free content for those who dont know even want to try their hardest specially such endgame content with the best item drops ingameYea these time options are straight trash.

If this time frame is the answer than i say leave it like it was because this is not an answer to include EU and Asia. How does a weekday even remotely make sense to anyone?
If we spent more time communicating, practicing, and organizing pvp with our factions in game like we do on forum posts shit would be lit. But few want to do that. There is always an excuse and this has become embarrassing if i am honest.
I have friends that have voted for this and that is their choice. But tbh i hope a better option or nothing happens before this does.
@Sparkle @Sjinderson since changing timer for both bosses in same day is bad idea what about kraken in thursday and BD in tuesday this is a good idea both everyone to practice in both bosses especially chinese, the current time for BD is too late for them and no one from them going for it upvote this post if its good idea, you can see all sides complaining even NA players about that spawn time for BDI beg the admins to reconsider changing times for black dragon options or shifting it to the next day and make it at kraken's time options that way we ensure that they get the chance to attend black dragon aswell
no one in EU have any problem if the options had earlier time that fits asia/china but admins who type those timers and decide them not us but if you really think you can convince them to change the timers to be closer for asia/china go ahead and do it but dont pick 3:30AM spawn for them and say "we care about them"
weekend wouldnt make any difference theres more events going on in weekend they would have to move 3-4 events just for 1 bossThis is why we initially agreed with the weekend

theres no events going on when kraken spawn for youThat shouldn't be an issue. We skip events all the time to do content. You have to decide what's important to you and Sjinder said himself that he'd move his rd event if needed.
