Update 4:40 AM - All servers are now open!


Update 3:21 AM - Still working on East, but so far things are proceeding as planned. Still no ETA.


Update 1:54 AM - West and EU are back up. The server migration is still underway on East, though we have no ETA for completion.

Hello everyone!

Today there will be a server restart and server migration from 11pm PST - 3am PST.


All servers will undergo a server restart, however East servers are going to be migrated to new, faster hardware.

As a side note, East servers may be down longer than West and EU.



This week's maintenance question:

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?

    First non-human reply!

    There doesn't seem to be any new manual patch for this maintenance.
    At least not yet.

    That would be purely speculation.

    If I could be a Superhero,
    I would be Awesome Man.
    I'd fly around the world fighting crime
    According to my Awesome Plan.
    And if I saw criminals trying to lie
    Hurting other people and making them cry
    I'd haul them off to jail in my Awesome Van.
    Because I would be Awesome Man.


    But in all seriousness, I'd have the power to manipulate matter!

    The frontal Slash AoE attack and the regeneration of the Toad in Flowsilver Palace, Rank 9 gear stage 3 +12? the Toad don't know about what it mean, he just only smack them.

    Immortality is not invulnerability, see Torchwood: Miracle Day and you will change your mind in a heart beat.

    That's an awful lot of responsibility though. Whereas matter manipulation ala say Mr. Manhattan? Many of those powers without any of the weight of being the one and only that everyone must look to for guidance!

    Silly Venus. With the ability to win everything forever, the concept of people looking up to me for guidance is now a kitten until I feel like changing it back.

    Literally.

    Hate to break it to you but if you make a kitten, you're gonna have to care for it. Kittens need love, training and food!
