[US] [8.6/Custom] Rookhaven

Rookhaven

Hope to see you online. Report any issues and please do give suggestions aswell to help us improve Rookhaven before launch!

A little update!
Testing has been going great so far, and we’ve already made a lot of progress thanks to all feedback from our testers.


Since launch, we’ve continued improving Rookhaven with focus on the overall gameplay experience.

During Test Phase So Far​

• New content, quests and areas added
• More progression systems and expanded on existing ones
• New spells, items and rewards implemented
• Combat and balance improvements
• Economy and shop adjustments
• Client UI and quality of life upgrades
• Performance, stability and backend improvements
• Many bug fixes and general polish

Moving Forward​

We’re developing actively every day during the test phase, using player feedback to refine systems and prepare for launch.


More content, more mysteries and more features are still on the way.

Small update: End date for the open test will be 20th of May, until then we will be continuosly monitoring feedback, issues and bugs and try to mitigate them on the "fly", is possible. After that we will take the server down for further development and eventually we will run another test in the (hopefully) near future.
