Carmila and Godfrey are growing out of their Fresh Start status, and moving on up! Matchmaking Instances and Auction Houses for both Carmila and Godfrey are going to be combined with the other servers on their regions.
Things like Dungeons, PvP Instances, and more will now include players from the other servers instead of only other Fresh Start players. Additionally, Auction Houses will be combined with the other servers of their region, allowing for more goods to be bought and sold throughout NA and EU!
When does this occur?
On August 24, 2021, the Auction Houses for all Unchained servers will be disabled. During this time, new listings will not be able to be created, but you can still purchase items from the Auction House. Purchased and Expired listings will work as they normally do.
On August 26, 2021, after the weekly maintenance, the Auction Houses will be reopened. Carmila and Godfrey will then be combined with the Matchmaking Pool of the other servers, and goods can be bought and sold throughout all servers of the respective regions.
Starting August 13 and lasting until August 16, ArcheAge and ArcheAge: Unchained welcomes the return of the Double Event!
