DST in Germany ended on 2023-10-29 (2 weeks ago). You probably would have noticed by now, if the GW2wiki/Browser time is off by one hour, right?

Rewards Temporarily Removed From Road to Heitor Meta Event

We are temporarily removing rewards from the Road to Heitor meta event while we address an issue. We are working to resolve this as soon as possible and will keep you updated.

Does anybody know, why?

Edit: Apparently some people received loads (unintended amounts) of the new map currency from the meta.

I assume you are referring to Icebrood Saga. I’m actually just playing through it on my second account. Currently close to the end of Drizzlewood 2.

IBS is really weird. You mostly hear very bad things about it, but when you actually start playing it, you probably think “WTF, this is amazing. What are people talking about?”.

I think IBS starts very strong. e. g. it has the best event in the game, loads of detail and very immersive maps and story. Sadly the Norn part is not as detailed as the Charr part and the overall level of detail diminishes the further you progress in the story.

I think what we see is a game that was destined to go into maintenance mode. Hence the rather grindy masteries and achievements. And then we can see a change of mind/direction, i. e. another expansion (EoD) is coming. Hence we see this rushed ending with 2 Elder Dragons being killed off within a few minutes.

exactly one type of content

One very, very, very specific type of content in this case. Also, it’s not so much the act of grinding itself which I oppose. I have done my fair share of grinding in MMOs and I can see why this is something one might even enjoy. What I strongly dislike is the you have to do exactly this today/this week, if you don’t want to miss out on rewards.

Here’s some data from previous expansions. Combined with the experience that patches generally hit the live servers in the early evening hours (UTC)) my guess is between 17:00 UTC and 18:00 UTC which is late morning / before noon at ArenaNet in Bellevue, WA (PDT = UTC-7).
