This next weekend I will be running another beta session. This beta will start on Friday September 13th 6:00 AM EST and run until Sunday September 15th 11:59 PM. All previous characters have had a semi wipe. Your character remains intact with spells learned, skills and platinum gained. Your level, items and tasks have been reset due to a complete restructuring of item stats, tasks, NPC stat changes and zone additions. Please see the home website for any information currently regarding the server.
This beta session will include special rewards such as special potions and a beta limited white lion mount. This mount will grant 200% speed. Now that I have a solid foundation on the structure of how I will be progressing, I can truly say there will be no more wipes unless a game changing exploit is found, and in that case I honestly hope whoever finds it will report it to me first thing. I will try to reward those who find serious exploits depending on the severity of the case. Please understand this is still beta and bugs will be present, but I myself try to test all avenues I can to eliminate as much as possible before it hits the population.
This beta will include 4 combat zones. 3 open which include Elddar Forest, Blightfire Moors and Arcstone, Isle of Spirits and an instanced dungeon Chambers of Xill. There will be a multitude of tasks to complete as well as 17 unique gear sets, 8 of them being upgradeable, 4 different tradeskills, the 8 novice job classes, and much much more to accomplish during this beta session. Sometime Thursday night, September 12th I will upload a new set of files which will be completely up to date. If you have played during the previous beta sessions please know that every file has been updated in some way so please replace all files with the new ones available to correctly see and play the server as intended. Currently I still do not support the Titanium or Rain of Fear clients so please dont ask about either of those. To best play on this server I recommend using the UF/HoT client.
I realize development has been rather slow, but I attempt to make everything to the best of my ability before launch and with a lot of real life excitement going on lately, progress has been slowed. I appreciate the multiple offers of help, but this is merely a hobby and not my job. Content will be released, but not as such a pace as to stress myself or anyone else out as I want only the best for my server. Nothing half assed and I appreciate those who understand this. My goal is to always have fun with something I enjoy and to create a place where not only can others enjoy themselves, but myself as well since I will be playing this server on legit terms, because after all why else would I be creating such a place. If you have any questions from here until next week please post them on these forums and I will address them the best as I can. Thank you for your continued interest and support in Enlightened Dark: Ascension.
