It seriously wouldnt be that bad if it werent for the fact this crap is only up on the weekends apparently. I have no idea what they were thinking with that and Im hoping they increase the spawn rate. That way everyone will have ample time to get the hats.Hey guys I got a good idea. Lets make a world event that only one group gets drop for that way people get angry at each other and end up hating other ls's . It makes no sense not to up the amount of elite mobs, so people aren't competing or allow a chest drop for everyone who tried. All this event does is encourage intentional wiping of other groups so you can get claim. I'm now anxious about 2.0 after seeing this event.
I have a request.
Lets stop saying when its up in this thread until the attack is over.
It will still serve to make a time sheet, and will decrease the amount of shells camping it.

They just start attacking again?
This event is absolutely ridiculous, frustrating, and poorly designed. Please change it so that anyone who participates is eligible for the drops. Right now it's just pitting players against each other, and not in a fun way. It's just plain frustrating. Change this claim-fest, mechanic-abusing, clusterf**k!... please.
True. Note the "spawn times" have rarely ever been around 4/5 PM PST... I WONDER WHY!?
I am actually for saying when they are up. Hopefully it gets swarmed so badly, like atomos, that they will be forced to change it.

They could have at least not given all elites group claiming, so that more people/parties could get their own piece of cake

They really need to unlink the elites from the H-1, and spread them out. Competition will still be fierce, but it'll stop the massive MPK'ing/Griefing going on. Otherwise we're back to ffxi HNM tactics, which NO ONE WANTS (ie: winner take all, do whatever it takes to claim, sabotage other players so you can get claim).
Despawn @12:00pm pst, spawned @8am PST
--; didn't see a single drop, few kills were claimed swapped don't know if they got hat on those - was there for 3 hours

Yup, we got 2 tricornes and 2 mage hats. Still working on my tricorne >_<;
few people camping it, I think not calling it out loud worked.
You can tell its an awful event when people are scared to talk about it. As shown above this event is too pro not helping people. In a random time event, people need help to try it, but this poorly constructed event has everyone trying to keep it a secret.
Sad thing is this event is an easy fix, to make it tolerable.
1. Make the trash mobs have chance to drop hat
2. Make it so killing the elites respawns trash
This makes this event eligible to smaller groups who can't form a party 8 people at a moments notice at a random time and a random day. This also makes it so that smaller groups benefit from helping a party of 8 kill an elite because they get more chances at hats because the garleans respawn after that. It creates a cohesiveness, instead of, stand there watch or try to kill to them. It makes you want to help because they are giving you something, you want to speed up the process.
