While it's going to differ for each realm we expect it to take about a month for the the "Anvil" to be taken, and the new badge vendor that accompanies it to become available.

Participating in all of the Shattered Sun Offensive-related daily quests contribute to your realm's progress in taking back each section of the island. So lend a hand! Only you can prevent Fel-Infestion! Give a hoot, don't ... avoid doing the daily quests. Where's the Anvil! How many daily quests does it take to get to the center of Quel'Danas? etc. etc.

Is it really going to take a month? Three hours after the patch went live my server had 12% on stage 1. I guess the later stages take a lot more dailies.

We do what we must, because we can.

Yah, it must because 32% done on the first night, im guessing the stages will each double each other in the time it takes.

20% a day.

5 days for one stage. Given variance, let's say it takes a week.

Stage 1-2: 1 week
Stage 2-3: 1 week
Stage 3-unlock anvil: 1 week

3 weeks seems about right for high pop servers.

I dunno. I am on a decently low-pop server, and we were at 30%ish when I signed off.

Also, not everyone is able to get on during the first day of a patch. I'm assuming there are people on each server that avoided the Isle just to not lag.

I don't like to disagree with a Blue, but I don't think that the Anvil will take more than 2 weeks to get. With an average of about 35% a day, that's less than a week for 2 stages of "recapture", and if later stages DO take more, it will probably be an extra day's worth of time for stage 2 and 2 days for stage 3, making it just about 12 days to recapture three parts.

Just as a curiosity thing... once the whole island is retaken... Will the Daily quests still be available for noobs? Or will the earlier daily quests go away and instances and the few remaining quests (Whatever they are) be the only ones left?


Q u o t e:
No, but there are consequences for your actions.
