On October 17-18th, 2018, several ArcheAge servers will evolve to better balance populations! Read on to find out what’s coming!
The ground under your feet begins to rumble, the first indication of sweeping change in store for the lands of Erenor. Soon you will find new allies and new foes as servers evolve together!
WHEN
On October 17, 2018, servers will come down for 24 hours:
North America: 12:00 Noon PDT
Europe: 14:00 UTC (07:00 PDT)
Important: Land placement will be locked until Saturday, October 20th – time is currently slated for 12:00 (noon) for each region.
The 5.0 Update will take place after the evolution, tentatively scheduled for October 23rd (EU) and October 24th (NA). Please watch for updates as we get closer to the dates!
WHAT
The new server names are not set yet, but we know what’s going where!
NA EVOLUTION 1: Aranzeb, Kyrios, Reckoning, Vengeance, Kraken
NA EVOLUTION 2: Conviction, Thunderwing
Nui remains as is.
EU EVOLUTION 1: Shatigon, Eanna, Prophecy
EU EVOLUTION 2: Tempest, Retribution
Ezi will remain as is.
AUCTION HOUSES
The Auction Houses will not be changing, with Merged Servers sharing an Auction House for each region as usual, and Fresh Start remaining separate.
New auction postings will be blocked for 50 hours prior to the time of the merge.
BUT WAIT, WE HAVE MORE QUESTIONS!
We will have a full FAQ available for you next week, and will open an official discussion/question thread at that time. We’ll also discuss it further on our Sept 14th livestream, with Khrolan!
