Posted by John Thornhill | 2019 Jan 25 16:49 -0500 GMT

We've got a few more fixes and notes for you on this fantastic friday! Once again, thank you all for the continued feedback and bug reports.

Developer's note:

  • We're currently aware of and plan to address the following issues during our next server downtime:
    • Death spam range unintentionally reduced. 
    • Issues with Wardens applying the new pre-set helm patterns.
      • To alleviate any issues, Wardens are currently prevented from purchasing these helm patterns until then.
      • Normal or blank helm patterns will still work normally.
  • There's lots brewing for DAoC in 2019 and we can't wait to share the full details in the coming weeks!

A Ghostly Incursion begins...

Posted by John Thornhill | 2019 Jan 16 13:16 -0500 GMT

           


Ghost Keep Event


  • Members of each realm should make haste to their ghostly ambassador to strengthen their realm's cause:
    • Albion - See the Ancient Paladin in the Catterick Hamlet relic town
    • Midgard - See the Ancient Thane in the Godrborg relic town
    • Hibernia - See the Ancient Champion in the Crair Treflan relic town
  • Players should ask the 'Ancient' NPCs for a [progress] report to be directed to the current task at hand.
    • These NPCs offer two quests during the 'supply' phase of the event that can only be obtained and completed during that phase.
    • Once a ghost keep has been triggered by a realm, the 'supply' phase ends for all three realms and these NPCs will direct players to defend or attack the appropriate ghostly keep lord!
    • Be sure to visit this NPC at each phase to ensure you pick up any available quests.
  • Earn extra realm and bounty points for completing the tasks throughout each phase of the event!
  • A successfully summoned ghostly keep lord will offer the Ring of the Summoned reward, along with a quest for the Ghostly Medal of Valor!
    • Please note that players who have already completed the Ring of the Summoned quest can obtain a new one or exchange their existing one for a new one at the ghostly keep lord.
    • Players who obtained the Ghostly Medal of Valor last year can obtain one more with this event.
  • For more in-depth information, our handy guide explains the phases of this event in detail!
  • The Ghost Keep event will be available until February 6th, 2019.

Harvest Celebrations

Posted by John Thornhill | 2018 Nov 21 01:04 -0500 GMT
Update November 27th: Harvest celebrations have drawn to a close. Characters that already have the event quests active may still complete them at the Festival Steward but she will no longer offer new quests.

It's that time of season when the leaves have changed color and are steadily falling, when the wind arrives with a chill, and the bounty of the year's harvest is ready to be served and celebrated!


Harvest Celebration Event


  • The realms are humming with anticipation for their upcoming feasts and local festivals!
    • Help the realms' Festival Steward recover a lost shipment of food and root out some secret stores of delicious desserts!
      • The repeatable RvR quests '[Harvest] Lost Turkey' and '[Harvest] [Daily] Secret Provisions' are now available at each realm's strength relic town at the Festival Steward NPC!
        • Earn bounty points for your efforts!
        • The Tower of Korazh, Deifrang, and Graoch on Ellan Vannin will have sturdier doors for this event's duration.


Farmer's Market Festival


  • The Farmer's Market Festival makes its return to the following locations:
    • Albion: Ludlow
    • Midgard: Vasudheim
    • Hibernia: Ardee
  • Visit the Festival Matron and go bobbing for apples to earn some house trophies!
  • Let Captain Mack in Albion, Captain Marks in Midgard, or Captain Geddes in Hibernia regale you with their tales of a shark THIS big on the high seas and see if you can avenge their crews to earn the Sharkblood Bracer!

1.125 Live Hot Fix #2

Posted by John Thornhill | 2018 Nov 16 20:44 -0500 GMT

We've got a few more fixes and notes for your enjoyment! Once again, thank you all for the continued feedback and bug reports!

Developer's note:

  • We're currently aware of and still working on fixes for the following issues:
    • Autoloot and autosplit not working on characters that have a completely empty backpack inventory.
      • We're working on a fix for this but for now a way to rectify the issue is to move a new item into their backpack from their /bank and that will allow the loot to once again be split to that character.
      • So long as characters have 1 item in their backpack, autoloot and autosplit should continue to work in the meantime.
  • Molvik's keep and towers all upgrading when the Stone Quarry is taken instead of just Molvik's keep.
