While they were fixing ASSIST type of things, the messaging associated with someone arriving to respond to your assist will be routed to your Announcements window, if you have it enabled.

ASSIST QoL Updates

For some time now, there has been some concern surrounding the use of ‘positions’ with regards to assists and referrals. For instance, players might see that they were number X in the queue. These numbers have always been of more use on the internal side of things, as they counted players who were not online, which would make you appear to be much further away from getting assistance than you actually were. As of a few minutes ago, this unhelpful messaging has been removed on the player side.

Also, as a QOL update, the messaging associated with someone arriving to respond to your assist will now be routed to your Announcements window, if you have it enabled.
