Hey all, Canthan New Year begins in approximately 3 days and a few hours from the time of this post. If you're like me and you hate trying to convert timezones, here's an easy way to do it on Discord, simply type in -cny and you will get a countdown! It will work throughout the 3-hourly finales too so you know exactly how long more before the next finale cycle begins.
To join GWGlobal Discord just go to (https://discord.gg/RpuJFKF) Discord is free, and no installation or microphone is required.
In addition, you can also start forming / joining groups for Rollerbeetle and DragonArena using the -lfg command on Discord.
You can start preparing for CNY now in fact. GW Wiki has a great guide on what items to start gathering in advance and how to maximize your profits from this event. https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Lunar_Token
Most people will be AFKing on Nine Rings for Lucky/Unlucky points, and that's because it has and still is the best source for that.
As for the finales, just keep a look out for sponsored districts. We will share more information about this on the GWGlobal server. (Alternate link: https://discord.gg/KnjgCkS)
Hope this helps out returning or new players. This is not a complete guide but I'm sure that others here will have better advice.
Mayhaps GWLegacy might sponsor a district too. Would be cool.
