So, two very weird things:
1) in town, I saw someone /ra one of the Babban's entourage ...
2) it died and stayed dead.

no idea wtf that's all about lol

Why ban?
There will be an emergency maintenace in sandoria to remove the dead bodies.
I see dead bodies everywhere.

So they weren't supposed to be dead then? I wondered what was going on.

Already did the trust on the 3 characters I was bothered about. So I wasn't interested anyway.

Apparently a bunch of people are doing the event now that the mobs are dead. I fear the banhammer so I'll just wait.

You seriously worry about being banned, Talk about dumb.

It's a *** event. For fun. Absolutely no one gives a flying *** if the mobs are dead and you get the event done 5 minutes faster, I promise you.

Why ban again?

Does this event give something that special that can be exploited, cheated and banned?

I am a worrier irl and in-game. I don't see why you're so worked up about that.

It's just stupid. Go do the event. If you magically get banned for participating while the NPCs are dead. I'll give you my account.

I don't really know. It gives you a trust but other than that I don't know anything about the rewards. I just don't trust SE to be consistent.

It would be too much lol if they ban people cheating to get an innocent trust and leaving alone the people exploiting salvage and others duping item.

Nobody will be banned for doing the event, but (i'm assuming) you can only attack the NPCs by using packets not just the ingame commands.

I'm not saying SE will ban for it, but it'd be pretty easy to filter for.

Well, they finally killed them on our server.

"Good job ruining such a fun event, and making it so easy anyone can do it, I'm so upset it took me so long and so much effort to do when the NPCs were alive."

Said no one ever.

Easy mode. Go. Thank you.

Ironically....the game is actually twice as hard with the npcs dead... more people doing it makes it harder to get sunlight lolz

I thought it was humorous at first but in the end it's actually a bit sad. Who would kill npc's for an event? It's not like the event is even hard...

I finished the event in one night due to the *** up lol

While the event is not particularly hard, I find it to be one of the more trolling events S.E has put in this game. Consider these three things:

Why do you have to waste time talking to the NPC when you're ready to turn in shards?

Why can the NPC's still hit you with their tp moves when you're talking to Babban?

90% of the time, if someone reaches the sunlight shard before you do, it'll vanish. None for yoo~

Again, it's not really a hard event per se, but I find it absolutely hilarious that they screwed up their failed at trolling.

It's literally the most grindy event I've ever seen from them.
Never want to see it EVER again now that it's been revealed that the killing of the NPCs isn't a part of it...

Makes me wonder if the instability that's been happening is cause of that... You know SE and their code... It doesn't make sense, but that's using logic.

I just want the Babban trust ... but man it is taking a while to get to 300 pts. I lose patience with it real quick and just do a little bit at a time.
3 minutes isn't long enough when you're blocked by NPCs. Sometimes they sit right on top of the sunlight or the HP crystals.
It's almost impossible to not get seen.
Other people doing it at the same time means you get very little, and then most of it gets stolen by the NPCs.
And yeah, the NPCs should NOT be hitting you when you talk to Babban.
Bleh. ;p I wonder if Babban will be available in another campaign.
