The only one with drogue chute is the only one having a rebuild tool? Holy crap, this is evil!  :o

Protip: drogue chute lasts for 2 seconds after deactivation.

You can hop on and off the helm while rebuilding balloon. Its tedious but it lets you get one to two hits in before needing to hop back on to keep effects of drogue chute.

Yeah, true. Still evil.  :P
Hope that I'll have time to participate, we had fun yesterday. And I guess making those galleons work will be a pretty interesting challenge.

We were just checking out if the event was running and unfortunately didn't get any information.
Was it cancelled or postponed to next week?

yea, cancelled. I'm not gonna wait, nor expect others to wait, in a lobby for excess of 10 minutes trying to get people to join in.

Lets consider it a one time event.

That's a pity but I can understand.
Sorry for not being there in time.
In case you reconsider giving it another try, we (some LMB and ooc members, I guess) are still interested in general as long as we've got time.
