How hard is it to open Crystal Cove on Wayfinder?

[ValariusK]

I'm on Orien and I've noticed it takes a long time (granted I'm only on after like 7-8 pm Pacific, so this isn't prime time), to collect the 3k map pieces to open the cove. What's your experience on Wayfinder?

.... What's your experience on Wayfinder?

They're still waiting for their first Opening.

Well, unless.... they ARE still waiting.

Looks like the map piece requirement has been lowered for Wayfinder a lot.
Hopefully you guys will be able to get the runs you want in.

Dont join wayfinder, you will double their population and I dont think server can handle that.

This time around, it only takes 1000 map pieces to open the portal. So it's not too bad if there are several groups depositing map pieces.

Actually, the grog and coffee were fairly easy to come by so it was just about 2 hours of dedicated farming (Kobold Assault) to farm 1000 map pieces. i did it myself and opened the cove 5 times alone, so yes, on Wayfinder it was fairly easy to open.

The sad thing was that nobody seemed to beinterested in running the open cove then...

During the October 2014 Covapalooza

Wayfinder was initially set to 1000 and was being opened quite frequently when I first checked.

After Turbine lowered all servers, 500 for the other seven, and 250 for Wayfinder you could not keep up with the how fast it was opening on most servers.

The required amount of map pieces to open the portal pn Wayfinder is 700.

I was on Smuggler's Rest for about 3 hours on the 4th, and it seemed to me that CC opened up about every 20 minutes or so. So, open for 20 minutes, and another 20 minutes until the next opening. In other words, fairly fast.

And with the doubloons I farmed plus some gems and shards from two prior CC runs I picked myself up an Admiral's Tricorn with +25% Kobold speed boosting aura for the next time I go in myself. That should help the 'lil buggers work faster!
