1.23 Imperial Event

How is random exclusionary? By definition, it includes everyone who participates.

Random events are a lot harder to get a group of casual people to attend. There are a lot of people who play and don't have the time to sit around waiting for an event to spawn. That makes it very exclusionary. I think most people are fine with events having a long cooldown (24hrs+) as long as there is a way to track when the event will happen so they can gather people. Think FFXI HNM time of death system.

It usually excludes anyone who doesn't have ages to camp the camps.

Could be weekends only =p

Lazy imperials! Taking 5 days off and only raiding on the weekends! No wonder we can't beat them, we're too busy raiding dungeons and beating down primals on weekends.

It's quite possible it's not working as intended. Maybe it was supposed to have set times of occurrence but they messed up the code so it only happened the 1(?) time.

nope, I fought them during two distinct spawns. Both were on the same day. However, I haven't seen them since.

They've spawned 3 times since the event began. However if SE could give us any word on it, it could easily clear up the wild speculation going on and allow a lot of us to get some sleep.

We confirmed with the Battle Team that like everything else, the rights to the loot will go to the party that makes the initial claim.

Thanks, that's the part we needed to know..

You don't need to camp. You just need someone to tell you when it's back up. Since it spawns on every server at the same time, and each time it pops, this thread is spammed with people saying it's back up, I doubt you'll have trouble finding out.
