Saint Valentine's Day is just around the corner, ah.. this sweet feeling inside of you when you spend hours in the stores searching for the special gift or needed ingredients for the hand made chocolate, then late at night you are trying to wrap the gift and make something out of the chocolate bars that you have bought earlier. Just keep in mind that the gift is just an excuse to be able to tell the one you love how you really feel!

It's a great time to bound yourself with your second half - new couples that will book the wedding and get married from 11 till 18 of February will receive a discount of 80 platinum for the ceremony, so the Golden wedding will cost 20pt and Platinum 120pt.
All couples that got married during 11-18 February will gain a double damage against monsters.


Also at this time on 11-18 of February monsters of your level will drop pieces of Valentines puzzles (total 9 pieces of 3x3 puzzle with a receipt in the middle), that could be brewed together in a Valentine Heart (can be given to another player). By using it a character gets a Heart as a gift (without parameters).

The time has finally come to test the strength of your Alliance and to compete against your enemy in the first battle over the Kingdom.
Tomorrow all Clan leaders who are members of an Alliance will be able to place their participation quote on any of 7 Kingdoms/Realms free of charge.

First siege will happen on Monday 7th of February at 19:00 EET (server time).
According to the rumors a lot of rivalry clans are eager to dig their claws and blades in to the enemy's flesh in order to snatch away the right to control Realms and Kingdoms. Please take your time to prepare for this Event!
Good luck to everyone and let the best Alliance win!

• Removed achievements for visiting events. They can no longer be obtained.

Now religious guilds are studied endlessly. We changed the formulas for the chance of passing religious skills and removed the dependencies of cults from each other. The first levels in cults give the most, and then their influence diminishes. We also reworked the formulas of testaments and added a similar progression to them. All players received a free change of religion, and you can look at specific changes in this calculator: here

• The following potions have been disabled: Potion of Divine Absorb, Potion of Divine Empathy, Potion of Divine Reflect, Elixir of Divine Generosity, Divine Power-up
• The Elixir of Unexcelled Accuracy is not being phased out just yet, but it will continue to have effect only in the Ancient China lands.
• Gold sourced from the monsters increased significantly
• Ingredient prices raised significantly
• Privately-owned shops will have been forcefully expired. The rent extension price has been temporarily lowered to 1 pt so the owners can fix the prices during the week.
• Respawn time was increased for the unique monsters (bosses). The bosses are to undergo changes in the nearest future
• The sell prices for artifact equipment obtained from monsters is planned to be increased in 3 days

We heartily congratulate you with the coming up Halloween! Despite all its frightening attributes, this holiday is an excellent occasion to have a great fun.

Note: the server is running by Moscow time GMT+3. There is no summer time in Russia, so the server time is shifted one hour ago compared to the summer period. Use the \info command to check the current server time.

This new mechanics is intended to facilitate the mostly fair 1-on-1 PVP combat. As soon as two character enter combat while being in a location that lacks any other player characters each has an option to trigger the Non-intervention Sphere. A button will appear replacing the “attack” button pressing which signifies the willingness to fight 1-on-1. Once applied, the Sphere will take effect after 30 seconds provided no other player character ventured into the location. If both players engaged in combat press the button the Sphere will be created at once. The Sphere protects the characters from being attacked (or helped) by any other character. Solo mode is not available inside Quest zones which include Ancient China territory.

• Roulette tickets are now issued at midnight by server time.
• Most monsters in the world have ceased to be aggressive.
• Genetics potions stopped working.
