Greetings,

On Thursday, 06/16, we invite you to join us in a test of the new event scenario, the College of Corruption. There will be two session of about one hour at 2 pm EDT (20:00 CEST) and 7 pm EDT (Friday morning 1:00 CEST) during which we open the College for you.

If you want to help and participate, please have your template character ready and waiting in your capital city before the start time. Feel free to organize groups as you like.

Apart from feedback about the general playability, we want to gather information about the optimal size (6vs6 or 12vs12), the Aspects of Fire, etc. You will also find our topics in a dedicated feedback thread in the Dev Discussion area which we’ll open on Thursday.

As a side note: Some of you might remember that we have announced the start of the Live Event for June 21st in the latest Community Update. But we want to have enough time on PTS and therefore postpone the Event (and the patch day) to the week around the 29th. 

We’ll see in college!

This weekend’s warfront is open for battle! The Black Fire Basin scenario is open for all tiers. Capture the flag in the middle of the frozen lake but be aware of the things it can do to you.
