Returning player..what to expect

[alpheaus]

I've tried to keep up with all the updates and fixes, but if someone could give me the tl;dr on major changes since Live. I know the first couple months of this being up, but after that not so much.

Also looking for old friends/guildies from badlands/gorfang

Since no one has responded yet, I'll give you a little info. I didn't play on Live so can't answer the specifics of changes. The Wiki provides some details of changes from live.

I can tell you a bit about what is currently in the game:

• Quest - many baseline leveling quests are in the game and continue to be fixed or added
• Public Quests - in the game, including the Chapter 22 PQs which require a Warband to complete
• Dungeons - up to Bastion Stair currently available
• Scenarios - many scenarios are in the game and continue to be tweaked
• Tier 1 RvR - for levels up to CR 15
• Tier 2 - 4 RvR - for levels CR 16+ (all tiers 2+ have a combined population for RvR with bolstering for lower-level characters)
• Fort Battles - open when a realm wins Tier 4. They are currently tweaking the number of participants allowed on each side.
• City Sieges - open when a realm wins 2 Forts. 24 vs 24 instanced with 3 stages
• Gear - up to Sovereign
• Classes - continue to be balanced and tweaked regularly
• Tier 4 Accessory Tome unlocks (eg. Winds Impervious set)
• Professions - can have 1 gathering and 1 crafting profession

The game is very alive and well regularly sees 1500+ simultaneous peak players. The devs take good care of it, providing weekly updates which include balance patches, mechanic updates, and a weekly featured Scenario that awards +50% experience. Over the past few months, the devs have also facilitated 3 twitch drop events with generous free goodies for twitch viewers. Pretty good overall for a free to play private server.
