Thanks so much to everyone who came out on Saturday to help test patch 1.121 and to take part in a really really fun event! Hectic, maybe even a little chaotic, but incredibly fun. Even if the aim was my death, over and over, and over...and over. You guys really liked that part!
Thoroughly enjoyed, though :)
We even managed to run the event twice, giving away lots of bracers,and also 3 one month game timecodes.Yay!
Bracer Winners
Ulfrika and their group (Mid's 1st deathblow)
Usetactics and their group (Hib's 1st deathblow)
Norezzforu and their group (Alb's 1st deathblow)
Odinbjorn and their group (Mid's 2nd deathblow)
Ashketchem and their group (Alb's 2nd deathblow)
Elendhriel and their group (Hib's 2nd deathblow)
Plzkillkennyforme and their group (most kills - loved the name!)
Korkhe and their group (most heals)
Riddles and their group (most deathblows)
Timecode Winners
Apergia
Mrsbluecandlestickbe
Alkyynyn
Timecodes have all been issued, and all but a couple of the bracers delivered. If you are one of those who hasn't received their bracer yet, check the email you sent us on Saturday and get in touch (same email) - you forgot to tell us what live server character is to receive the bracer!
Also thanks to Lea for streaming the event. You can watch that back on our official YouTube channel here:
Congrats to all the winners, and many thanks again to all of the participants for their testing and feedback on 1.121!

 Kill Kenny... as in kill ME! Ever wanted to get me back for those perfectly timed screenshots of your death that I shared? Or your group wiping in that embarassing way that one time on my stream?! I do love traps :)
Well here's your chance!
On Saturday, July 9th, at 3 PM EST/8PM GMT/9PM CET I'll be holding an RvR playtest event on Pendragon's Ellan Vannin. All players are welcome, so please come along and drag your guildies/friends out for some fun. The object of this event is to get the deathblow on me! Some of you old timers might remember this event from years back :)
Here's how it will work:
-
Copy your favorite RvR Character to Pendragon sometime this week. For instructions on copying your character over, go here.
-
At 3PM EST/9PM CET on Saturday, July 9th, please assemble at your realm's milegate on Ellan Vannin. I'll do a "/who Ellan Vannin" for each realm.
-
Round 1: A random group will be chosen from the realm with the highest number of players. That group will be the Protectors of Carol for Round 1 (you'll need to invite me to your group). When the signal is given, groups from the other two realms will try to rush in for the kill. Whoever gets the killing blow on me for Round 1 will win a PENDRAGON'S BRACER for themselves and everyone in their group!
-
Round 2: Carol will join the winning group from Round 1, and the other two realms will have a chance. Whoever gets the deathblow on me for Round 2 will win a PENDRAGON'S BRACER for themselves and everyone in their group!
-
Round 3: Carol will join the winning group from Round 2, and give the final realm a chance to win a PENDRAGON'S BRACER. This round will continue until the winning group is from the remaining realm. (In other words, if Midgard wins round 1 and Hibernia wins Round 2, then Round 3 will go on until the Deathblow comes from Albion.)
-
We will also be giving away a 1 month DAoC game timecode to one lucky player from each realm!
-
Members of groups who won a Pendragon's Bracer will not be able to win a time code.
-
Groups, or individuals who were part of a winning group, cannot win a round more than once.
-
Winners of Pendragon's Bracer will get to choose 1 character on the Live servers to receive the item. Character must be level 45+.
-
Event will be streamed on our official DAoC Twitch channel.
By the end of the event only three groups will have won, one from each realm.
Will yours be the winning group? Will I pay dearly for this?! Bring your best (or worst) and see!

The Pendragon Test Server is being changed to the Free-for-All PvP ruleset until the next announced playtest. This is to facilitate communication and testing across realms.
Players can teleport to the strength-relic towns using the normal NPC channelers where they will find Testermatic and Buff NPCs.

On Tuesday, June 28th, at 8PM EST/1AM GMT BG Leaders Luvly and Smeger will be running a playtest on Pendragon to see what the upcoming Patch 1.121 brings for zerg and group fights as the realms go head to head!
Everyone is welcome to take part, the more the merrier, so bring your characters out and kill, kill, kill!!
To get involved: create a new character on Pendragon, or copy your existing characters from Ywain. Instructions on how to copy your characters can be found here, and it's best you do it ahead of time so you're all set up and ready to go for Tuesday night! Tester NPC's can be found in the capital cities for each realm.
As always, we'll be there to osberve, chat, and help :)
We are very grateful for the assistance of the community, and we look forward to seeing you on Pendragon tomorrow night!
