Restrictions Being Lifted on 20th Feb

So...what would be the best strategy to get a plot that you've been eyeing? I have my eyes on a small plot in a lavender beds subdivision and I have never been through a housing rush like this. If I log out in front of the plot and log in right after maintenance how difficult or congested will it be? I'm assuming it'll be easier since i just want a small AND it is in a subdivision but I am still worried.

You log out in front of the plot and pray to RNGsus that you don't get hit by error code. And have your clicker finger on the ready.

And make sure you set /busy so people can't trade you to try to stop you from buying the house.

Do a test log out and back in, to see where the camera faces. Memorise where the placard is or adjust your char so that you log in with it in an easier place for you to remember where to click the second you log in. This time around, you won't really have the time to set up a busy status that was suggested for previous rushes.

I've been through it a couple times now, once in 4.1 and once in 4.2. There's a few things that will be different for you, since the wards are all active so you can essentially just log out in front of the plot you want. That will make things both easier and harder for you.

1. Create a /busy macro so no one can open trade/invite to party to block you from buying.

2. Create a plan of attack, have backup plots in mind nearby in case your chosen plot gets taken from you. Memorize the aetheryte locations and names and be sure to be ready to sprint to the next house if need be.

3. Be prepared for a queue logging in after maintenance. I recommend signing in with your credentials before the servers come up, then click on the "worlds" button to refresh the launcher as soon as the clock hits the hour. The button will appear for you to log in after that. That way you don't need to waste time trying to type in your info last minute.

Gonna add to this, BE NAKED. I seem to load faster when my character has less to load. The less particle effects on you the better.

If you don't have an SSD don't be too worried, it's the lobby error that is your biggest foe.

Personally I would log into a ward that has the most plots available and next to the plot of your choice. If your plot is sold I would grab a plot fast (any) so i wouldn't be locked out. Maybe check see what is close and interesting before you log out the night before. And then depending upon your finances I would then tele to the nearest npc to check and see available plots and if any of my 1st choice were still available. If so you could tele to it and make a transfer if it's not sold but obviously that would cost you a lot more.

don't forget to set yourself "busy" asap or ppl will have their partner in crime try and trade u to stop your buy.
