Flashback event

I'm quite new to Poe but getting more and more informed on things

However I read this event and it just didnt make sense to me
But free stuff always sounds good so I thought i'd give it a shot coming up weekend

But would like to get some stuff straight...

- When I go ingame at 6 may, when I create a new character it will participate automatically on the flashback event?
- It doesnt matter what league I choose (I play BHC now) but if its just for the free micro things, ill just go standard as thats safer anyway?
- So when u start on the event, u cant really trade? I mean seems kinda dumb if you can have all the equipment from level 1-95 ready once u start....? That will be huge advantage for rich players already....But why can u choose between 4 options in the event? Doesnt make sense at all...

So conclusion:

If I know I dont have enough time to be able to compete with top 3 players for demigod, and I'm just here for the free micro transaction points....
Should I just create a standard character level it to 85 (probebly wont have time to get to 95)
And then create a hardcore character level it also to 85, to get the most points possible in my limited time?

EDIT: also this event starts at 9 am saturday NZT...I'm not good with timezones
But this means it starts at 11 pm friday night for europeans? ISnt that ultra crap?

Everyone starts fresh. Once you are able to choose the league, there will be a flashback option.

You can trade just fine unless you play ssf where trading is disabled.

The event starting time is displayed in your timezone as far as I know.
Come May 6th when Flashback starts and you create a new character the 1 month Flashback Event will be listed along with the regular leagues we have now. That's how you enter the 1 month challenge league. There will be softcore and hardcore to choose from and the SSF checkbox should you choose to go solo no trade.
"You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone..."
Necessity may be the mother of invention, but poor QoP in PoE is the father of frustration.

Ahh ok thx so far

1 more question...

Are the rewards limited to the league ull play flashback in?

So if i go standard flashback any reward can only be used in sc..not in hc?
Just wondering cuz why is there hc anyway?

All MTXes (event rewards or otherwise) are always account-wide, and can be used in any league, current or future.

The Demigod's Dominance will be awarded into your stash in the permanent league of the same type you win it in (Flashback Softcore -> Standard Softcore, Flashback Hardcore SSF -> Standard Hardcore SSF, etc.)

May 6th ? Isn't it may 4th ?
The start date is May 5th 9 AM NZ Time.
Which is 3 PM Eastern Time May 4th I believe, or noon for me (PST)
~ Please separate the PoE1 and PoE2 forums.
