I am sure it can be done more than 3 times, Sally and I was in dungeon for 4th times.

I assume the dungeon only open for an hour after weekly maintainence. (which reset the dungeon CD.)

We don't know if there's 1 week cooldown, it's just your guess, so calm down.

Point is, there is no way to determine whats the cooldown, so unless you are camping the entrance 24/7, you have no chance to try this dungeon. And thats wrong for sure, at least NPC could give you some info. The 2 minute countdown to dungeon is bugged aswell, its not open long enough to run from zaap to the entrance - but may be different for everyone, i was running there with another char, door already closed, so i reloged to another to move it there for next try, and magicaly he got bonus 10s to enter...

The dungeon being accessible only during early morning tuesdays same as the world bosses is a slap in the face to everyone who can't be online at the time not to mention the horrible horrible way to stretch content out. If you think this will keep people from leaving you're sorely mistaken ankama it will just drive them away.

Troyle please make sure to forward up the chain our deep loathing regarding the subject.

People opened it few times right after the release. One week passed and it was opened few times again. And now it's closed again. I also hope, it's just a coincidence.

I wish I could buy p2p just for 1 day, I would buy it for Tuesdays

If it is really only open after maintenance then this is the stupidest idea of Ankama yet.

The world bosses are already horrible game design, but this is even worse.

Who opened it after release? We had no screenshots, no drops from the boss or any other proof that anyone on Remington opened it, untill today.

It's jelly island all over again. Except this time we're paying and we're pissed.

After maintenance this morning I know my guild (a few people from it, not me :T ) got into it, I'll post the picture up when I get home - I was at college, and I agree with the rest of the people complaining that if this is a weekly thing it's completely stupid. Some of us players have lives, we can't camp in front of a dungeon 24/7 just to wait on something that MAY happen.

I reckon most people get or got into this dungeon by a fluke. And if some people have figured it out, everyone is so goddamn secretive that they'll never tell anyway.

Btw this is the Remington server shown here.

There was a screenshot of someone inside the dungeon. There were people who said, it's very easy to open it and they did it at first day (night?). We had informations (movie on youtube) from the other servers, that they did it on 1st day.

And then silence, no one could open it anymore....

Until today, exactly 1 week later, after the maintance.

I also wish it's just a coincidence.



@up I don't think people know the combination. From what I heard, they just lighted all the candles in random order.
I wish Troyle could tell us what is happening, but apperently he doesn't have permission to tell anything more about this dungeon.

1) Players just farm dungeon and dont care about loosers who cry at forum.
2) Probably it have 72 hour timeout.
3) It is no special combination.

That would be weird. I wake up every day and log on to feed my pet about 10:30 a.m., always on Monk Island. And today is the first time I saw the timer.

Whatever the truth is, I'm pretty sure it will be opened again after the next maintance, so be ready people, because every second matters if you want to enter the dungeon. The timer is a lie.

Chocoboknight's screenshot has players from the remington server talking in guild chat in it.

From TODAY (well, yesterday in my time zone) I was there too, yesterday. But I was talking about opening the dung after release. Noone was there until yesterday on Remington, so we can't really be sure that it opens only after weekly maintancence.

Nobody that you saw on the forums, you mean. The forums are really the vocal minority of the community. It's quite easily possible (and likely) that a bunch of australian/new zealand players opened the dungeon and ran it a few times before it was available for everyone else, since monk island was a local timegate. They were on monk island half a day before everyone else. I would put money on a few of them getting into the dungeon straight away and just not posting about it.

According to the French CCM, that stupid World Boss system will be changed for the 2nd May update...

I've turned all the candles on myself (server was dead at one point, easy to test with nobody around) and they stay on for long enough for me to go on the forums, find a new theory and turn them all off again manually. I've never ever seen a candle turn itself off. If one player can't do it alone it's because there's some arbitrary, invisible time limit to do it.

Still, if this dungeon does have the cooldown people claim I think it's the final nail in the coffin for my Wakfu subscription. I've hated the direction Ankama has been going in lately; making more and more and more content effectively 'exclusive' to a very small group of level 100 players that know the exact timers and camp the mobs every 3 days. Now we've got an even worse situation with a dungeon that is effectively being locked out from the entire playerbase except a couple of people. Like others have said: what if you can't play at that time? Tough shit. You can't run the dungeon, just like you can't fight black crow or moowolf.

I don't mind cooldowns for PLAYERS, but not for the world. Make the world bosses and dungeon have a 24h/72h cooldown or w/e for individual players in an instanced zone. Don't make it so nobody can do it because someone else did it instead of them.

I sincerely hope this is bad information or a mistranslation but I can honestly believe Ankama would do something that awful and think it's awesome.

Exactly, the past 2 updates are mostly unreachable for a lot of players, including me.

I have yet to fight a Moowolf; see a Black Crow and indeed, get into Monk Dungeon, those are a big chunk of what Ankama promised to deliver to us in the last 2 updates. And might I say before the 13th I had been really active, averaging about 6-8 hours of play time per day, I mean that's gotta be on the higher end of active players, so I can safely assume that I share the same experience with the majority of players,

But I feel change is upon us, I mean they can't be completely oblivious to the fact that they have designed content to be only available to a very small group of players, right?

Oh and also I am really glad I only subscribed for 3 months, which lines up nicely with D3 release because after getting full Starry set I'm really at a loss for things to do in the game until maybe they release Gobbsage, which I suspect will again be something 'exclusive' to the .... shall we just say 'super-determined' players.

So... don't blame me of not holding my breath.

Alright, 72 hours have passed now and still we couldn't open the dungeon again. And I dont think it will be opened tomorrow or the next day all I think is: this dungeon has 1 week cooldown and if so I want to say bravo ankama! Brilliant idea. Congratulations... Making the game more of hell kind than a fun place... What makes me suffer is that very similar kind of nun set which is lunar for fire users are being farmed so damn easily and on the other hand me an air user needs to wait 1 week for dumb puzzle to be activated and so that I can get my damn set. Again thanks ankama we wait more awesome ideas from you like this!

Well according to Troyle's Post here, it will get worse if this get the same change as World Bosses

Right now you could at least predict the time of the opening. After that its hourly lighting candles and hoping
