is not just only wartags, I lost my lightning effect on my weapon now there is just flames.
And when I leveled up I dident get the light effect only the white leafes thingy.
Other then that great event NC.
Tip for players: the raindear dont rebuff there speciall buff after it is grown up if you delete it :D I just goes away after 20mminutes.
btw It seems my clanless alt see wartags over certain players.
i hope thats sarcasm n i cant help but wonder if the ppl that come up with these actually play - i have zero interest in participating in this event but the ******* fruit baskets stop me picking up pots n such i have to keep moving about just to take drops :(
Epic patch fail. Seriously, this might be the best candidate yet for a patch rollback until you guys can test this stuff better. I know mistakes happen, but sheesh, these are pretty big glaring issues that should have manifested from basic regression testing.
Failure in the change management process is always a crying matter.
Seriously NCSoft... do I need to draft you a proper change management process, so ******ed things like this do not happen?
"Should our test servers be to the same specs as our production servers?"
"nah.. its fine, if it works on the test server, it has to work properly on production."
Seriously... I am failing to see how an event could change the warring system, and even better yet the client representation of the server names. WTF does quality management team do all day? Even better, what does your internal audit team do?
first wartag i saw was an extreemly powerful character from an extremely powerful clan... and the tag was two way war...
so for this passive aggressive care bear...
i was a bit frightened...
as for the reindeer buffs...
the main part is the cp,mp,hp boost... also the movement speed.
everything else is just extra.
so even if you do get boosted crit rate or attack speed and vampiric rage...
the extra hp,mp,cp is still beneficial.
here's hoping for one hour vitality...
Had a wartag over my own clanny's head earlier before they took the server down to fix the server name issue, it went away after about an hour and a half though by itself.

but who realy needs more cp/hp/moving speed? .. and is it worth the afford of running around the baskets trying to pick up the loot. I got the mage-rudolf buffs too .. and i play a fighter-class. Why dont get mages the caster buffs and fighter the melee type buffs?

yes it is, with the 1h buffs and regular peting buffs and some "Heart of Paargrio icon"? buff it is very much worth it.
As I said, I like this event. Events are supposed to be fun, not suddenly boost your char. They even made it harder for bots than usual, no tradeable santa socks and scratching rudolph so bots will have to script some more or totally skip this event.
The bugs were more fun than bad, no much lag, moxie is reading forums and intervening here and there, lyzira has been present also, it could have been much worse. This player base does not deserve better, as well as a company that does not police the game deserves this player base.
All in all things are not worse nor better than expected given the mistakes that have been made in the past and continue to be made to this day.
Business as usual, tho an encouraging sign is that spam bots returned, so the player base is not likely diminishing as fast as before.

some other possible problem is that in Rim Paliaka Seduced Knight is no longer talking to us, but i fail to see the connection with the event. Apart from mobs there and bosses dropping food for reindeers (even get sys message about rb that died and dropped orange basket or something) wartags, suddenly broken NPCs that have no connection to the event, server names changed seem to suggest some client as well as server problems unrelated to the event. As I saw, besides event there were some other fixes, so I think those are also contributing to the issues we see. I think it was a mistake to roll out both fixes and event in same time, because there is a risk we dont know which issue came from what change not to mention interactions between the two, like pet issues which are interfering with rudolphs.
M
P.S. BTW, there is a time of 10 min when you log between aggro mobs when they dont "see" you unless you move, however, new system of pet coming with you broke this, as mobs see the pet and attack it. As it was obvious for players that read patchnotes, should have been obvious for developpers too so they would have taken measures to prevent this from happening, most likely by making pet invisible also, or give the option to have pet back or not, or at least retain its buffs, if making pet invisible also is too much of a hassle.
i see ppl blaming the event but it could be the patch they did not the event it self and its wiered i had a 2 way war on my un claned dwarf spy today and thats on dev
this game has way too manny things wrong with it.... search 'this game is so messed up' read up on my gameplay issues....there very debateable and very annoying for the average person....they are just things that make this game a joke to play....
this game has way too manny things wrong with it.... search 'this game is so messed up' to find all the people who qq about anything and blame everything/everyone else. there very debateable and very annoying for the average person who wants everything easy and thinks it shud be a perfect world....they are just things that make this game the best god **** mmo ever made thus far....
/fixed
If you had your way all the freedom and good things from the game would be removed and we'd be left with another boring pointless mmo. Sometimes things that are hard, are good, because it has more point and reward to it when you achieve stuff.
I've been harsh on ya but you've been harsh on the game. Just get ingame and enjoy earning xp and getting stronger while avoiding enemies and whatever else. Dont take easy uninterupted xp as a granted given.
Theres an issue with siege grounds too. Yesterday my clan went to take a fortress and guess what? Half of my clan got red swords over the head and the other half got blue swords making AOE and macros a pain.
Phoenix.
And I see the opposite too. 1-sided war above one Camelot toon and no war above other Camelot toons. We don't have wars with Camelot.Exactly the same here on Sayha but with 2-way war icon.
pvp game, everyone's a wartag - i like it.Sorry Spud, now i have to put you in my sig :D
Oh come on.. it was funny to see a wartag on a clan member...LOL, quick PK him! it's a spy!

Issue is still on (at least during european night).
I'm from Teon and I notice that people that I recommend most likely become in 1 side war (in some cases 2 side war).
It seem to be connected to Santa. (not rudolf :D )
I was in Rune with 10 % of people with war tags (practically no one was in real war in our clan - mostly were my clannies!) and then was massage :
"Sanata is going to delver presents"
Exactly at same moment all war tags over clannies gone.
Maybe it will be usefull to check reason of error.
P.S. We checked if I have 2 side war my 'opponent' sometimes don't see any war tag over head. It seem not related to real war tags but just really bad hidden relation.
P.S.S Please fx it asap - such error in mostly PvP server as Teon is real pain

If u remember there was another event that caused the same issue (a year ago or so, can't quite recall the period in time but there was such a thing), so guess everyone's just assuming the same thing :)
