    shard 4 @ 960

    12:00am
    Sub just ended
    leader Daver321 w 18,722pts
  • I was hoping slice 4 would fill before the end of the sub but I guess I am still waiting a little. Mind filling us in when it is full?

    I guess I don't get how this all works. People are NOT clicking on the sub page and playing yet, because we hope to get into a fresh bracket, yes?

    Does that always work out to your benefit?

    Are the correct terms what I had previously asked for ("tell me when first bracket in final shard is full")?

    Does anyone know if shard 1 vet bracket is full yet?

    People are not starting the event altogether until one of the time slices "rolls over", meaning that the main event (not the sub events) hits 1000 people. When it hits 1000 people, it's full, and anyone starting the Prodigal Sun PVE event in that time slice from that point onward will be put into a fresh bracket.

    Does that always work out to your benefit?

    If you start in a fresh bracket, your chances of placing in the top10, 20, 50 or whatever are much higher (it may be impossible to place top 50 in a slice that is full of 999 other people that have been grinding for a day or two already before you start). Individually, this is usually a good course of action to take, but it does not help your alliance, so each player has to consider their personal goal weighed against alliance goals when doing this.

    Are the correct terms what I had previously asked for ("tell me when first bracket in final shard is full")?

    What it looks like you want to know is when slice 5 rolls over. If you have already started the PVE though (selected a time slice and entered the event and see the main event "card", so to speak), it's too late for that to be helpful to you.

    Sorry I can only give you 1 thumbs up for your sacrifice for the rest of us. I've done it a couple times though. Luckily, with the tremendous rebalance going on, Quicksilver covers probably won't be a major concern for a while -- there will be time to build them.

    If you are around when it rolls over, I'm sure a few would appreciate it, but by the looks of it, it might be a few hours... sadly.

    I'm 343rd after 1 clear. It's all good, he'll turn up in pvp. I took a gamble trying to get a dream bracket. Sometimes you roll snake eyes

    How can I tell once a bracket I'm already in fills up?
  • Slice four is still at 994 with mistical in the lead with 24217. I'll keep you guys updated on when it fills up.

    On the event screen it will state the number of players. As soon as it hits 1000 it is full
