Read that Raynes, however, they only cover Fyros, there is nothing in the Chronicales about Zoria, Tryker, or Matis, nor is there anything about the Matis / Tryker army that showed up in Fyros after taking down the monster in Matis then Tryker lands, then following the Fyros take down with there assistance, moving on to Zoria where it was then defeated.
The Chronicales are incomplete, and suggest that it was still some sort of stalemate by the fact that he was able to get into the Fyros camp and hold ground until such time as he was removed.

I agree that the Event Storyline is yet incomplete. The one listed for us, as mentioned above, is the pre-finale invasion that took place in Fyros and has been up for several days. I know because I read it days ago. They just haven't put up the written version of the story for the end of the invasion yet. Guess we'll just have to keep on waiting for to see it for now.

The three boss mobs my team looted on the US server had the following loot.
80 mission claws
3 stacks of q220 supreme mats, 20-30 in a stack
2 stacks of 3 kitin trophies
The craftable mats have good stats but not the best I have seen.
I don't think the trophies have a use.
The boss loot was not that good for all the work it took to get it; I think this kind of boss mob should have much better loot. The bad thing is it took 40+ people to take these mobs down and one team was able to loot 3 of the 4 bosses. It would be nice if everyone that helped could have gotten something.

I would love to give you one, however they are mission items and cannot be given or moved off of me.

As are the tokens, secretions, claws, and packages...
What do we do with these now? The @%&$% things have bulk and masss -filling my already feeble inventory space! Are the Masters still in the areas of the camps? Will they be useful at some future point?
I am merely a parttimer here. I found that I greatly wasted my time by harvesting mats [since apparently no one ever turned in any secretions to make gen mats] and crafting packages, instead of just killing critters and turning in claws. I earned perhaps 2 royal tokens doing this; then in 2 hours earned another 16 by fighting the 1-4 star critters near the war camp.
Hopefully, the next event will be more balanced...I know I won't bother crafting [STILL haven't been able to get to the harvest camp in Matis] the next event unless it is.

Yhea the info in the event section is what was there befor the end of the event took place. In all honesty it bairs no resemblance to what happened. Wich is basicly after a Large Matis to Tyker then back to Matis run a bunch of people got together and desided to take down the boss in the Matis land (there had been an attempt the previous day, but the boss could not be found). Haveing acomplished this Task, they desided one good deed deserves anouther and moved on to the Tyker boss and we proseaded to cut it to size (but not spead out the good bits amoungest the partisapents). After that every one was feeling prity spiffy, so the raid of Matis and Trykers moved on to Fyros and kill theres. After that, just to finish things up the raid moved to Zori and took out the final boss. While the raid did gain and loose people along the way and from each land it was esentualy an outgrouth of a Tryker and Matis event that just kept moveing under its own power to just get things done.
And yhea raids nead some serious tweeking. Like a raid chat so people dont have to spam others with there text; Raid groups (ie groups of groups) for beter looting, healing, and co-ordanation; and beter ways to reward people who attend events like the end of this one rather than just give everything to one group or person.

And let me add to that list, which is already very good:
There needs to be more meaningful participation available for mid and lower levels chars. My level 60 melee, level 72 forager, was almost useless against the kitin invasion(he did some healing but also needed to be rezzed a few times). One still gets the feeling that the events, and rites, are geared exclusively to very high level chars. I've been playing more than 2 months, I just don't have the time to play enough to get quickly to very high levels. Yet I feel I'm a part of the game, have grouped with many others, have helped new players, and overall feel like I fit in. Except for the events/rites, which don't seem relevant to a char with my levels. That isn't the way it should work, IMO.
Better to draw people into the game, and give them a feeling of accomplishment as their character grows, by allowing for meaningful event participation even at lower levels.
