Active Events List

[Arbegla]

This might've been suggested already, but can there be a way to check what active events are going on? Especially with the Zombies, and Banner events, its hard to log in and find out what zones are currently under attack.

Plus it'll help to know what the timers/rotation is for certain spawns.

Check the chat channels "Zone Events"

This channel just tells you when an event is starting and stopping. If you've logged in in the middle of an event you'll have no idea there's an event going on unless you happen to be in that zone.

 

EDIT: As far as timing/rotation goes for zone events:

• Zombie invasions are triggered in a random zone whenever a team completes a KHTF.
• Rikti invasions are triggered in a random zone whenever a team completes an LGTF.
• Croatoa event has a 25% chance of triggering every 1-2 hours.

Zombie events are rumored to also be triggered by redeeming costume temps from the Halloween vendors, but the source provides no citation nor confirmation from developers.

"Zombie Apocalypse: Redeeming costume salvage with Granny Beldam appears to trigger a 20% chance for a Zombie Apocalypse event in both a hero and a villain zone. However, this has not been confirmed by a developer."

Tarikoss SF should do the same trick for redside, dont think a KHTF works for redside and some Zombie Invasions started when at least it was no KHTF announced in LFG but a Tarikoss just finished :).

 

But generally a Event List would be a good idea, even better if it had a timer how long it is, till that Event finishes.
