As promised here are some more infos about the upcoming stress test.

When?

The stress test will start on Friday the 4th of January 2019 at 6pm CET (i.e. 6pm in Berlin, noon in New York, 9am in San Francisco and 4am in Sydney) and will end on Sunday the 6th of January 2019 at 11 pm CET (i.e. 11pm in Berlin, 5pm in New York, 2pm in San Francisco and 9am in Sydney).

What?

After the end of Beta (Dec 21st), we will delete all chars on your account. At the stress test weekend you will be able to log in and create new characters. While the server is open it will run under "live" properties (having an active 12h realmswitch timer). If you want to change the realm you will have to wait for 12h or you have to delete all chars that you created on the actual realm. You can test leveling, search for good starting spots or start crafting. But all progress (XP, money, craftingskill, drops, etc) will be deleted at the end of the stress test, except the toon itself. When you login on Jan 12th (launch of the server) you will have naked chars (except personal bindstone and training weapon) with zero gold, xp, items. Those chars will have the names, which you gave them when you created them during the stress test. Last names will be saved too.

If you already know where you want to begin xping at launch, you can log out your toons at the end of the stress test at the spot where you want to start. This could be interesting if people want to xp together. It might also be a good choice to log at a spot that is not that popular. For example in Hibernia you might bring your toons to Howth, Ardee or Connla as Mag Mell and Domnan will be pretty full of people.

Anything else?

Guilds created during the stress test will NOT be deleted. To create a guild you need a group of 4 players and 50 gold. All progress that you might make during this weekend on your guild (merit points, bounty points, money, etc) will be deleted after the stress test but the guild will stay (including members and ranks).

When creating a toon don't get rid of your training weapon, all items except for bindstones and training weapons will be deleted. While there will be an NPC in the main cities that hands out those items it would force you to go to the city as your first action as you would otherwise have no weapon.

Last but not least

Please stick to our naming rules. If you are not sure about a name take a look at our rules first --> https://playphoenix.online/rules
Any warnings & offenses that happened in Alpha/Beta will still be on your account and will not be deleted.
