Hey guys! Big news! We have set our Archlight Reborn Release dates (We had to confirm with otservlist for countdown on dates) and Archlight Reborn will be launching on January 22nd. (in 3 weeks).
However, I know many of you are aching to play, to give you guys a sneak peak at all our new features and changes (and there is... ALOT of them..) we will be opening up a test server for players to come online!
Archlight Reborn Will Launch on January 22nd 10:00AM PST (19:00 CET)
We are also coming back on a much more powerful dedicated server (No more freezes on any server freezes, even with 250+ online)
Also our brand new custom Archlight Online Website will be up soon too!
Q: When will the test servers be up?
A: The test servers will be online 24/7 from January 9th > January 19th.
Q: How can we see these changes?
A: All these changes will be phased into the test server over time and can be played before release.
Q: If we donated, do we get our points back?
A: Yes, more information on this will be posted on our website on release day.
Q: What new is coming/changes being made?
A:
1. All currencies being majorly reworked/adjusted. We want to make gold important again! To do this we will be doing many changes to the loot/drop rate of gold primarily, and also many items. This will help make gold a worthy currency and not a pointless one.
2. 4 Events added to Archlight Online (which will run every 4 hours automatically)
Last Man Standing
Zombies
Team Death Match
????
and an Online Event Ladder System. (What is this?) Every event you win, will grant you Event Ladder Points, this will not only be for the pvp events but also the PVE ones, where your level will not make a big difference but more your skill. This will not only be a way to show your dominance of events to the rest of the server, but also will weekly earn you free rewards.
3. Reworked fishing system - Our biggest mission is to change fishing to something that isn't just a "bot feature" we want it to be fun for everyone.. and not require a bot to reap the reward from fishing. The overall fishing system will be getting a massive re-work. - More details coming soon!
4. Some small class changes to every class on Archlight Online
AND NEW SPELLS!
5. Brand new re-done starting guide. (more in-game interactive also). In archlight we noticed many players got so confused when they first joined from all the new systems and features, we want to fix this for reborn and make sure no player is lost/confused when they join Archlight Online
6. Low level spawns increased in size!
7. Reworked task system to be slightly more interactive an give better rewards for any level progress. (We want to also make tasks more for earning money, which will be important, rather than just exp, and keep exp for team hunts).
8. Cracking down much harder on in-game player MC's and Botting.
9. Ramparts complete rework! It's currently almost pointless for players to do since we nerfed the daily medal reward, we want to bring back the ramparts more than ever and make it a big part of your experience on Archlight.
10. We will be redoing many of the ways you get certain outfits and mounts to show more visible tiers of which addons/mounts are rare and which are common!
11. Reworked daily quests and dungeon system!
We have so so so many more changes we are implementing or already have implemented but it would take far to long to list them all here! This is just a teaser on the large changes
More to come soon!
Miss you all <3
