Greetings Inheritors,

After our initial announcement about the server merge schedule on May 1st (“Server Merge Schedule”), we took a careful look at all of your feedback and decided to tentatively put the server merge plans on hold.

The free server transfers for ArcheAge: Unchained Dahuta & Shatigon servers will take place as originally planned after the maintenance on May 11 (Thurs) and up until June 29 UTC 08:00. You can view the details in the May 11 (Thurs) Patch Notes.

• You can purchase the graduation reward at the Marketplace once per account.
  • Please make sure you purchase it before transferring servers.

 
We are revisiting and reconsidering the original server merge plans, so we'll share with you what has been confirmed for now. We will be providing free server transfers for players transferring from the Kyprosa and Erenor servers to the Leviathan and Ospheros servers. We're also planning on providing a transfer period for players transferring from ArcheAge: Unchained's Nehliya, Kyrios, Arcadian, and Stormraw servers to the Ardenia and Kraken servers. We will carefully consider the details about the free server transfers, and share with you the details in a separate announcement once we're ready.

We'll continue to actively implement your feedback for our game service, and promise that we will strive to do our best to improve the game service.

We thank everyone for all of your love and support for ArcheAge and ArcheAge: Unchained!

Thank you.

• Fixed the issue where the damage area on the ground would not disappear after Aria died.
• Fixed the issue where you could not accept the Building Character quest when at the Pirate Faction.

• Improved the location and the pop-up notification for the Workshop Employee in the territory.
  • Because "Workshop Employee" was standing too close to "Workshop Manager," interacting with the latter NPC to accept the "Supplies" daily quests in the territory would cause you to exchange your Territory Coins for Enhancers by mistake. To improve upon this inconvenience, we've made the following adjustments:
  •  "Workshop Employee" will now be located next to "Territory Resource Workbench."
  •  The pop-up notification text that appears when interacting with "Workshop Employee" was changed from [Deliver Territory Coins] to [Use Territory Coin and Receive Supplies].

• Combined Story Quest Infusion: Rank 1–3. 
  • We have combined "Story Quest Infusions" as the different ranks caused issues such as the difficulty of learning about the ranks in the early stages or the insufficient bag space. You can now use this item without any rank distinction up to Hiram Guardian equipment (before awakening).
  • You can use the "Story Quest Infusions" that you already own, but you won't be able to acquire those anymore. Now, you can acquire the new "Story Quest Infusion."
  • Story Quest Infusions can be obtained through race quests or Marketplace purchases.
• Made adjustments so that the "Sea's Protection" buff is applied when the first Kraken is spawned.
  •  "Kraken" is randomly spawned in two locations, and players, depending on the number of participants, prepare this raid by dividing the available force into those two locations or by focusing the force on one location. However, a faction that opts for the latter case can be at a disadvantage if Kraken is spawned in the other location.
  • To mitigate this issue, we have adjusted the "Sea's Protection" buff effect to be applied for a certain period of time when the relevant raid monster is spawned for the first time.
    • "Sea's Protection" buff effect
    • Siege Damage -50% for 5 min
    • If you return when the "Sea's Protection" buff is expired, the buff will not be recovered.
    • If you return when the "Sea's Protection" buff is active, the buff duration will remain.
• Mitigated the issue where you could easily complete a weekly quest of Ipnya Ridge in a certain situation.
  • Upon completing the race quest Erenor Chapter 3. Ipnya Ridge - 33. "The Voidbreaker," players would enter the single player dungeon Queen's Altar, obtain a powerful buff from "Timbo," and defeat the monsters from this dungeon that are relevant for the weekly quest to easily complete this quest. In order to mitigate this issue, we have excluded those monsters from the quest targets.
• Adjusted Warlock Erik's spawn time.
  •  Although players must defeat "Warlock Erik" for the "Anthalon's Invasion" race quest, because the spawn time of this NPC is too long, it was difficult to complete the quest when there were too many participants. Hence we have adjusted his spawn time as below.
    •  Warlock Erik's Spawn Time: 205 sec > 30 sec
• Adjusted the territory and the population density of "Brown Thorn Hedgehogs" around the Statue of Nui located in the lower region of "Plains Eye" in the "Great Prairie of the West" as there were too many of them.
• Changed the target range of Spelldance - Dance of Calm from friendly target (excluding self) to Raid Members (excluding self).

 

• Mistsong Banquet event dungeon has started. 
  • Event Period: April 13 (after maintenance)–May 4 (before maintenance)

  • Each of 3 participants must take charge of a way that leads to Ominous Worldgate and stop Lethy's minions.
  • You can exchange the "Mistsong Guardian Soulstones" you have obtained in the Area for various items at the "Mistsong Gift Exchanger" in Mirage Isle.
  • Please visit the Event page for more information.

  • Event Period: April 13 (after maintenance)–May 11 (before maintenance)
  • Your XP, Quest Honor Points, and Vocation Badges earned will be doubled during the event period (Fri–Sun).
  • A separate Double the Gain event is being held on [Dahuta & Shatigon] servers, so this event does not apply to them.

• Fixed the issue where Powerstone Pet Ellam was sometimes desummoned.
• Fixed the issue where incorrect color was displayed for a dyed Doctor Healgood costume.
• Fixed the issue where using certain Coinpurses while the bag is full only consumed Labor.
• Fixed the issue where a currently unavailable item appeared in the Auction House search box as an autocomplete word.
