You must be Lv30+ to participate in the event quests.
All event quests are daily quests and reset daily at CET 23:00 (PST 21:00).
Event NPCs and event quest items will disappear after the maintenance when the event ends.
Timed items given during the event can only be used at Falcorth Plains.
The Waterballon Token and Themepark Gift Exchanger will disappear after the maintenance on Dec. 22 (Thurs), 2022.
The current Arena ranked system will be revamped. Below are the details on the ending of the ranked system and future plans.
The Arena system was there to promote competition through rankings, but it did not work as intended, such as being used in certain contents as a means to earn rewards.
As a result, the current Arena system will be terminated in November and will be revamped over 2023 to provide various benefits to players who participate in various activities. We're also planning on a coin revamp in December, which should allow for better acquisition of Kyrios Badges.
[Schedule]
The Arena Ranking System will be maintained until November, all rewards will be distributed as normal.
Akrites Accessories (Ranked rewards) will be usable until December and will be unavailable afterwards.
Arena rank information will not be provided after the December 1 maintenance.
Arena List
Gladiator Arena
Sparring Arena
Free-For-All Arena
Drill Camp Arena
We plan to introduce the update and future plans in December.
We were pleased to see the positive reception to the ArcheAge: Unchained Fresh Start server in September and see that the seasonal style, with enhanced boosting and progression, was popular and well received. We’ve also heard a lot of feedback that on the original ArcheAge, the hurdle to catch up to veteran players is too high. With this in mind, we will be opening up a fresh start for ArcheAge on Dec 15th, 2022.
How will the Fresh Start Server be different?
Focus on faction PvP[/b]
In addition to extensive boosts to enable you to progress efficiently, the core focus would be on the conflict between Nuia and Haranya. So, to make this possible, the Pirate faction will be disabled.
Faster and smoother progression[/b]
Level Achievement crates: - We want you to reach end-game content and competitive PvP rapidly, so, as you progress you will earn rewards that will ease your journey. These crates will include Infusions and Luna Charms that will allow you to reach a respectable gearscore in a relatively short amount of time.
Meaningful Events[/b]
We want to set some different challenges and competitions so we’ll be running a bunch of fun and rewarding events that will let you win even more prizes. Follow us on Twitter and come hang out in our Discord to learn more about these.
Content Gates[/b]
We also want to allow those that missed the very beginning of the server to be able to catch up and join in. To facilitate this we will be bringing back the content gates in a similar manner to our first Fresh Start servers. However, the exact timing and specifications of each gate are not yet determined so more information will be provided in the coming weeks.
We’ll be providing more detailed information on the specifications and schedule for events, land rush etc soon. In the meantime, we hope that many of you will join us for the next Fresh Start and that some of the changes we are trying are enjoyed by all who take part. We’ll continue trying to find new and interesting ways for you to enjoy ArcheAge and ArcheAge:Unchained.
