I would assume that the timing was posted wrong. Seeing we had maintenance last nite, I don't see anyone coming on the servers to place the NPC's just for 2 hours. It was probably an oversight and I didn't expect to see them to be honest.

The guy has a point, i mean after all Dio did bring up this in another thread:

Pssst, don't tell anybody but I got a bit carried away and already placed all the NPCs for the third event

Just saying

That post was referring to them originally being placed..early too

I dont see that that was the case. It specifically states that Dio "placed ALL the NPCs for the THIRD EVENT". This is the third event, that would mean that is referring to the npcs which are now no longer there, as stated by Keyshana

Yes, but during maintenance, they disappear. Therefore, after reset, Dionaea has to place them manually again..reason why I didn't expect them to be here this morning.

Whenever event runs on weekend weekend to Tuesday, it is gone after maintenance. Always had. Whatever time translation issues there are, they are done and wont be back.

hrm that is weird to think..... I mean NPCs dont have to be manually reset for events after server mait. So they would have to be "special npcs" outside of normal programming. I would just figure they programmed them to show up at a certain time. I mean that would only be the smart way to do it to remove human error (lol frogster error is still as bad). You dont think there is a GM there to flip double xp instead of just having it programmed? I just think you are one of the players that still likes to wear blinders to how incompetant this company is.

I mean after all the whole event is just a joke for noobs that think grinding helps. I mean 44 mil for level 70. even if you consider 10k a kill, is 4400 kills, assume (being generous) 400 an hour, 11 hours. That is being REALLY nice. So a 2 hour buff that wont even let you get to that high per kills... worthless

I think Vfwiffo is more right, that they were programmed to go away with server mait and not intended on being back. Maybe they think "we activated them early, we can take them away early"

Here is a link to a post this week during the zone resets of Osha that will show that that is not the case:

It is more likely the time translation is just wrong rather than "activated early so take them out early". It was like "when is server back up on Tuesday?" "Around 8? Well, I'll put that in the news announcement".

Hi everyone

It is correct that these special Event NPCs are placed manually by us. It is also correct that it was planned for this week's maintenance to take the NPCs down for us. The maintenance time ended sooner then the event timer. This is why the NPCs were gone sooner then originally announced but since I got carried away, as someone already linked to, and placed the NPCs almost half a day too soon on the beginning of the event, I hope you can forgive us. Next time I will adjust the news for such events to clearly state that the maintenance will remove the NPCs. Sorry for the confusion.
