To keep the game more exciting and always have something going on we decided to implement a regular wipe schedule for Official PvP servers. Please see the details below, but the general idea is that Official PvP servers will be wiped monthly with last week being run with x2 rates. PvE servers will stay unaffected and will ONLY wipe with major updates release. Private and community servers are also unaffected and their owners will decide if and when they want to wipe them as we have no control over those servers.
- The next wipe is scheduled on 17 January (Friday) on all the official PvP servers.
- The wipe interval on all the official PvP servers will be every 4 weeks from now on.
- Wipe time: 1 PM by GMT/UTC time (as usual). For your convenience, here is the local time in the primary time zones we have:
- 7 AM by Central US (CST, GMT-6)
- 10 AM by Argentina/Brazil (GMT-3)
- 2 PM by Germany (GMT+1)
- 16:00 by Russia/Moscow (GMT+3)
- 21:00 by China/Beijing (GMT+8)
- 10 PM by Japan and South Korea (GMT+9)
For the last week before the wipe, the servers will have x2 rates for items drop, resources gain, skills XP and LP rate, and crafting/manufacturing speed (this time only; for the following wipes we will consider this again based on players feedback). There may be minor variations to rates from time to time to keep the game interesting.
The rates are raised to x2 now on all the official PvP servers until the next wipe.
Global PvP 1 server will include the following changes:
- Friendly fire enabled with 50% damage.
- Spawned Oil/Li capture restriction cooldown reduced from 30 to 20 minutes.
