I'm so torn. On one hand, I want to get the new items. On the other I want to earn the new achievements, even if they are stupid easy to get.

[FadedOasis]

I'm feeling generous. Anybody who helps considerably at this Engie Farming event will get server reserve slot access for the rest of the weekend. :-D

(Note that this will probably be another Free-play weekend.)

[brianblack]

I'll be there, but i don't think i want to farm the achievements. Helping hand ho!

[phevnil]

I'm in a pickle over this to. Quit the dilemma. Farm the achievements for a class I rarely play, spoiling the fun of the moment when you get an achievement during your every day gaming (keeping in mind, I do not play engineer every day) or draw out and prolong my attaining of what appear to be very enjoyable items for my brand of engineering… Well, possibly see you there maybe?

[thechurch]

i'll be there

[Jeziah]

I'll do the super easy/lame ones for the items .

That sounds excellent. Thanks for planning this out, Faded. I will be there (hopefully).

[phevnil]

I plan to show up and help for as much as I can, but in just the two hours I played last night I got thirteen acheivments (counting milestones). I may or may not decide to get the rest naturally as well, but I will try and be there for the manpower!

The wrangler is the last item you get. Wrangler achievements should not be part of the event

Cool, I got the wrangler from a random-drop

Thank God I'm not hunting Jeziah anymore.

Change of plans (by no plan of my own...), I probably will not be on tonight for the farming. Sorry about that.

Edit: I will still make it to help a bit in the afternoon.

[FadedOasis]

There is no farming tonight, we're switching to a normal server at 5:30 eastern. That's in about 15 mins.

[FadedOasis]

Event is over. Will hold a repeat event tomorrow morning, 10am to 1pm EDT.

[FadedOasis]

Encore cancelled. Got some stuff to do.

[FadedOasis]

Anyone who showed up to the event yesterday has reserve slot access until Monday afternoon. Follow the directions on the forum home page.

Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for the aid on Friday! See you all soon.
