We will be holding an emergency maintenance tonight at 10:00 PM PDT. This maintenance is only a restart, but afterward our Homeless players should be able to enter their Homesteads. :) We expect the maintenance to last approximately 2 hours.

    Any ETA on how long the restart will last? Usual maintenance window time frame?

    Also, by Homeless, do you mean people like me who got inside our homestead, but are now able to enter.... Or do you mean those who completed the quest, but never got teleported into their homestead, and have never been inside.

    I would assume the latter, but clarification would be nice. tiger-1.gif​​

    It should be around the regular maintenance time, maybe shorter. Hopefully it will fix both types of homelessness. :)

    Nothing will be changed in existing homesteads. :)

    In the Elysium bug thread, it was mentioned that china no longer has RoR and until we get that update to remove RoR completely, they were gonna send out codes of 5 tele stones to get in an out of there apparently.
    So yeah: enjoy RoR while it's still here. :p

    Update time everyone! So lets get to the weird stuff first. Realm of Reflection.Here's the deal so in the Chinese version RoR no longer exists due to updates that will be making their way here soon enough. As such there will be no NPC's in the RoR... So what we're going to do is every week until the realm is removed, issue a code (like James and O'Malley ) that will grant you 5 teleport stones to enter and exit the realm as you please.

    Any idea on when ror npcs might be fixed?

    They announced that in the future (due to PW-CN not having RoR) they are removing it from the game via a patch, and Until said patch they will be releasing weekly codes for 5 tele-stones (and the code announced in-game for 100 event gold) so they know about the RoR NPC's being A.W.O.L., even said that in multiple places too( CMs correct me if I'm wrong on the tele-stones pls)

    Do you know why chars need 35k rep to get a house? honestly seemed like a dumb idea considering rep costs 40m for 35k and it's forcing people to diver their money to alts instead of main just to have a house for personal reasons.

    You never know how strong you are, until being strong is the only choice you have.

    They went down at 10pm PDT, and are expected to be down for about 3 hours.

    The time is now 11:09pm PDT​​

    The server restart is for updating the storage to resolve the Homestead issues. I'm not entirely certain what you mean by the rest of the words. There is not patch to download. It is simply a server restart.​​

    You have had over 13 hours to sign in today, even if you had to work, there was probably enough time before/after you slept to sign in. Absence notes cost less than 2m coin each, so up to you to decide if it is worthwhile to get them

    On the other hand 3 of my 4 eligible characters have never been able to teleport into their homestead.
