Greetings Inheritors,

After the success of the ArcheAge Unchained Fresh Start server that was opened up in September, we’ve been considering opening up that experience to players on ArcheAge. We understand that the desires and expectations of the two versions of the game are different, so we’re looking to make adjustments to the specifications in order to offer something new. 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 would be disabled.

We’ve been carefully going over feedback from you, especially when it comes to progression and we’re making plans to ease the gap between new and established players so that end-game content is more accessible and PvP battles are more active and more evenly matched.

We will release more details over the coming weeks so that we have time to hear your feedback and take it into consideration as we finalize our plans. To kick that off, we will be releasing a quick survey in-game from Nov 3rd (after maintenance) which will last for one week. To participate in the survey, you can also participate through the [Survey] tab that was added to the [Daily Schedule] menu. Please check out the screenshots below for the details.



You must answer all questions on the survey in order to submit your survey. You'll receive 1 Reparation Crate as a reward for participating in the survey.

We look forward to hearing your thoughts so that we could provide an even better ArcheAge experience!

Thank you.

 

●     The "Autumn Has Come, Share the Harvest" event has been extended for 2 weeks.

●     The Machine Filled Dimensional Crevice event has begun.

●     The Black Friday Ticket Exchanger event has begun.

●     A survey on the Fresh Start server will be held for 1 week.

○     "Reparation Crate" x1 will be distributed as survey reward.

 


● Fixed the issue where your character would freeze when dismounting Arcadian Jet Ski after using its "Listen to Music" skill.

● Fixed the issue where the Lunastone FX effect was not applied on Combat Costumes.

● Fixed the issue where certain costumes would display the incorrect dye color.

● Fixed the issue where the Calamitous Manticore could not use the Run! skill while airborne.

Greetings Inheritors!
