Battle Herald: News from the Frontlines

Posted by Kai Schober | 2011 Aug 01 07:53 -0400 GMT

Last week saw a very special anniversary: One of our oldest players celebrated his 80th birthday. Happy birthday, Gerd! We /salute you for your continued enthusiasm and wish you all the best for the years to come.

But the battles didn’t pause. Probably because of the relic situation – Midgard owns its relics and the ones of Hibernia, while Hibernia keeps controls the ones from Albion – Sunday evening saw a full scale invasion of Midgard’s frontiers. Hibernia’s forces established a foothold in Bledmeer Faste and were soon joined by a big Albion attack on Blendrake Faste. The Battle Herald was on site and you can find some impressions in the Facebook Album.

The Dark Age of Camelot Wiki

Posted by Kai Schober | 2011 Jul 13 18:23 -0400 GMT

Greetings,

In the last Producer’s Letter we announced a new Dark Age of Camelot wiki as one of the projects we had planned.  The goal was to allow an easy entry to the immense knowledge surrounding the game and to improve the overall experience both inside and outside the game world.

The wiki had a soft launch together with the new website, and was quickly discovered by some of you. It has since grown by hundreds of articles – especially regarding classes and zones, and the structure of the wiki was improved as well.

Several players have already became regular contributors, amongst which Etaew is most active, with a whole list of ideas on how to improve the wiki.

From today on you will find a direct link to the wiki in the right corner of the news box, next to the Facebook, Twitter and YouTube buttons. Why don’t you check it out and contribute your knowledge about your favorite template, skill set, quest or anything else people might find useful?

Battle Herald: News From The Frontlines

Posted by Kai Schober | 2011 Jul 11 10:28 -0400 GMT

After a lot of back and forth skirmishes without major lands gains, Sunday evening saw the wrath of Albion renewed, when the troops of Billings and Rescu joined forces to recapture Albions relics which were both held in Hibernia. After gaining a foothold in Dun da Behnn the Albion invaders quickly laid siege on Dun nGed and took it while Hibernia defenders were distracted by a simultaneous attack of Albion on Ailinne Outpost and a Migard raid on Dun Crimthain.

King's Order Extended

Posted by Kai Schober | 2011 Jun 30 08:31 -0400 GMT

After a long discussion the councils in the three realms have decided to extend the opening of the warehouse for one day. While the quartermasters expressed a lot of concern about their shrinking stock of valuable assets, the Champions still were worried about the safety of their kings and were happy to see an increased strength amongst the heroes of their realm. The city guards argued that these merchants attracted some strange and dangerous monsters right to the walls of the city but were drowned out by the loud voice of the treasurer who wanted to continue to count his stacks of coins. In a nutshell: The merchants for the items of the Infernal Invasion and for the Mythirians will stay another day until Friday, 1st of July.

Highlights from this version include:
  • Several balance changes have been made to ML10 Encounter Weapons.

  • Master levels no longer require Master Level experience.

  • A series of repeatable Monster, and Player kill tasks have been added to the following Battlegrounds: Wilton and Molvik. These quests will grant generous amounts of experience and Aurulite as rewards.

Free Character Transfers from Glamorgan to Ywain

We will enable Free Character Transfers from Glamorgan to Ywain with the restart of the servers. If you have characters on Glamorgan, please read the Character Transfer Guide to be prepared.

Important:
  • If you want to build a new house on Ywain, please check which server of the cluster has lots in the location you are looking for. We recommend not to transfer to Ywain1.

  • If you transfer your guild, make sure to withdraw the collected guild taxes before the transfer. Realm Points, Bounty Points and Merit Points will get stored on the guild leader, the guild money won't. In order to withdraw the money, just click on it in the /social window.


We'll see you in the Frontier!
