I don't get it.

What kind of raid is this? No boss. No reward you couldn't make yourself. No fame you can't get running missions. No real exp. for killing the damed things. I don't want to be an a**h@1= but this is about the most pointless event in the game so far.

After I figured out what to do and then finished the missions I could. I found myself with max dp and little to show for it. So then I explored. No bosses to be found. Thats it I said to my friend with me Im done with it. I worked off our dp and logged.

So, tell me when its over. Im not going to waste my time on it.

Of coarse I could be wronge. There might be a boss somwhere. But, it would take more than all the players in the game to get to the boss the way things are.

Anyway good luck with that cause it won't be me. Ill just stay out of the area for now.

The invasion hasn't started yet. See Takashi's follow-up post here:

Our job is to help arm the outposts in preparation for the invasion.

You may be right. But, I've lost my read between the lines glasses. However, I think that this event, whatever it is, is a complete pain in the butt. With the way its set up to receive a useless reward.

OK, but what about your read what is plainly stated glasses? :)

From Takashi:

"The harvest camp is very isolated in matis lands, but it is quite important to get supplies here. They will provide the materials for the crafters. Although it will be hard to access, if only a few homins can pass back and forth between the harvest and the craft camps, surely there will be a great increase in arms and armor creation. Many of the resource masters have yet to recieve sufficient secretion to make a batch of the raw materials, but when they do, after submitting your next batch of supplies to your craft master, they will give you a voucher to take to the resource master, who will supply you with materials for your next batch of crafting.

"As many of you have surely seen by now, the craft master will have you bring the finished package of arms and armor to the armorer in the war camp. This is very important, because the armorer needs 5 packages to outfit a guard group. The more complete packages they recieve, the more homins they are able to equip to help fight the kitin attacks."


We need to get resources to arm the outposts. Forget about gathering claws to turn in for some sword and think about the bigger picture here. Those reward items are not the purpose. The purpose is to create an army of guards to help us when the kitins finally decide to attack.

Your looking at this all wrong, this isn't about awards and such. Our lands have been invaded by the same creatures that nearly wiped us out in the past. We are only here due to some our ancestors escape to the Prime Roots where they hid for years. If we don't provide the guards needed supplies and get our forces out we will surely meet the same fate from our follies of the past.

Great Mynias the Watcher and his two pets named Shaman Oba and Doomblade! I was told the burning axe for fyros was 1H! For Mynias's sake, 37 HPM on a 2h weapon with what I assume is max damage? *death'd*

Yeah but thats not what you handed out to read is it. And yeah I have plain reading glass on and it looks to me like a craft / frorage event and a quick fix for a big mistake. I found out tonight IG what was going on. So now what when the invation takes place and our cafters a foragers havnt put enough guards out there we lose the city or the region. Wow thats agreat idea, good plan. To bad it was implemented so poorly
