Join the Party is back with a new wave of celebrations! We’ve got a new wintry Hub, a new batch of Shadow Pinata invaders, and a brand new party animal – Tysorian, Steward of New Beginnings, the dragon that carries a cacophony of confetti wherever it travels.

Shadow Pinata invaders spent Turkeytopia getting stuffed. Now they’re well rested and back with a vengeance. Defeat them for a chance at Pinata Coins, Celebratory Pinatas, or the rare Celebratory Pinata mount.



Collect enough Pinata Coins by defeating invaders and visit Pinates the Purveyor in the Hub. He got great deals on his holiday shopping and is now loaded up with Dormant Worldspring Eggs that you can use to craft your very own legendary dragon, Tysorian, Steward of New Beginnings.



In addition to those fanciful party favors, they now have a chance to drop these gorgeous Lively Launcher wings!



Throw Celebratory Pinatas to complete the quest and earn rewards. While the quest can only be completed once, throwing Celebratory Pinatas is the gift that keeps on giving. Toss them near friends to share the loot! If you’re the one throwing the Pinata you’ll always receive loot, no matter how many other Trovians are celebrating nearby.

The cherry on top of this swirling sundae of scintillating celebrations are brand new Weekly Deals! Each week we’ll have a special, limited time deal available for Credits from the Trove Store. This week is the Dragon Weekly Deal:

• 15 Greater Dragon Caches
  
• 2 Diamond Dragonite Pouches
  
• A Golden Dragon Effigy that unlocks a legendary dragon that you don’t already have. Possible dragons granted from the Effigy include legendary dragons that come from eggs (not the Primordial dragons) and the refer a friend dragon, Disaeon the Immortal.

Greater Dragon Caches will also rarely drop a Golden Worldspring Dragon Egg which can be used to craft Tysorian, sold on the Marketplace, or given to a friend in the spirit of generosity.

Party down all day, erryday!

• The Checked Off hat has reacquired its name in the tooltip.
  
• The Tech Table Segment recipe is no longer called the Tech Table Corner recipe.
  
• If one person cancels out of the name change prompt, other players also contemplating a name change will not have their prompts disappear.
  
• Consuming Dragon Souls will now properly refer to the type of soul consumed.
  
• Added an internal cooldown to reduce /joinme spamming.

Update 3 - 11AM PST (7 PM GMT) - We're back online and stable (though you may see it take longer to change worlds). With the EU servers disconnected you may still experience the occasional disconnect but should be able to connect again almost immediately. There's a chance that there will be a queue of a few minutes after a disconnect, but that should be fairly rare. Thanks for your patience!



Update 2 - 9 AM PST (5 PM GMT) - We're working on a resolution to the latest disconnect. The EU servers have now been disconnected from the system and we're likely going to need another restart. Please bear with us.

Update - 8:15 AM PST (4:05 PM GMT) - We're back online! Thanks for your patience. To prevent a network disconnection from bringing Trove offline entirely we will be taking the EU servers off the network through the weekend. We'll investigate the best options for reconnecting them and will provide additional updates on Monday.


Players in the EU will still connect as normal, but will be directed to servers located in North America for the time being.



Hey all,

We're aware of the issue preventing players from logging in at the moment and are working to get it sorted out as quickly as possible.

I'll keep posting regular updates on progress.

Thanks

Hey everyone,

We experienced a series of network issues last week that caused disconnections and latency across all Trion Worlds games. We’ve worked hard on resolving the issues, and we’re happy to let you know that we’ve just installed new hardware to help manage these issues in future.

Now that connections have become stable once again, we want to provide everyone who logged in during the issues with a heartfelt “Thank you!” for sticking with us through last week’s challenges. We know how frustrating disconnections can be and hope to see you back in your favorite Trion game soon.

If you logged in to Trove between November 9th and 12PM PST on the 22nd, you will receive the following (should be completely sent over the next couple days):

Everyone: 5 days of Patron status and 3 Empowered Gem Boxes
Patrons: In addition to the Gem Boxes and Patron time listed above, you'll also receive 5 additional days of Patron status (10 days in total)

Thanks again for adventuring with us in our many worlds.

Now, let’s get back to gaming!

Sincerely,
All of your friends at Trion Worlds
