Can we stop Locking the collectionebla's behind some stupid events. Or add an in game timer so we can see when the events starts. OR just place the collectible somewhere in the world itself like.

It's so annoying to wait for a long time while having no idea when or even if the event is going to start.

Or look at the pages for specific events, they would list if there were specific spawn conditions or times.

i see his point, most events dont have set timers or at least we dont know what the exact timer is, some are set times after a previous event succeeds/fails, some arent even set times as far as anyone can tell

this was most noticeable for gen 1 precursor collections, most of the Orr events collections had uncertain waits up to 2hrs(?)

the EoD ones can be just as bad. you could map jump using lfg, but many are bugged/extremely rare/difficult to encounter

How about we just put your specialisation weapon on a pedestal in arborstone and you just collect it with no effort whatsoever.

You may not like it but events itself doesn't have much rewards so i see it as necessary evil
