After months and months of anticipation, a spark has kindled into a flame!

Yes, today you can meet Izmar, your long-awaited, brand-new, red hot Content & Community Manager. She's come quite a long way to bring light and cheer to the International and UK communities, and now she's here to serve you, the players.

Let's all welcome her and wish her good luck!

The DOFUS 2.0 beta test server is under maintenance.

The changelog detailing modifications brought by this update is already published in the Log Book.

Some modifications of the game are particularly extensive, therefore this maintenance will be longer than usual.

Thank you very much for your patience.

Changelog Beta 2.0 22/10/09
Characters:

-The Male Iop has been completely redone. The bug concerning the pelvic area not taking on the colour of the trousers in the front view has been corrected.

After the release of the Ogrine Seeker many of you have been seeking more information as to what an Ogrine might be.

It’s time to tell you a little bit more about it!

Following this morning’s maintenance, some paddock items and fairyworks were no longer usable on an empty cell. A fix was applied, which corrected this issue when a character was reconnected.
If items that have come from a “persistent” in-game inventory (a house chest, or picked up off the floor, for example) still appear not to work properly, please “force” the fix by disconnecting and then reconnecting your character with the item in your character’s inventory. The item will then be adjusted and you will be able to use it properly.

The final fix will be implemented during the next maintenance on 20/10/2009.


Thank you for your patience and understanding in the meantime.

Osamodas:

-Spiritual Leash: the spell no longer allows static summons (Cawwot and Tree, for example) to be resurrected.

Sram:

-Invisibility and Invisibility of Others: when a spell is used while under the effect of Invisibility, the caster’s position is revealed to their allies and enemies. From now on, players will be able to more easily work out the position of an invisible enemy and are no longer forced to wait for them to become visible again. This system forces invisible characters to think about how much risk they are willing to take. The more MP an invisible character has before casting a spell, the more difficult it will be for their opponents to work out their position. We made this change to make invisibility a lot more fun, participative and balanced in PvP.

Sacrier:

-On the turn that a punishment is recast, it is no longer possible to benefit from the cumulative effects of two identical punishments.
-When multiple same-effect punishments are accumulated, the maximum achievable bonus is now equal to the sum of the maximum bonus of each individual punishment. The speed at which bonuses are gained in this type of situation is no longer multiplied by the number of active, same-effect punishments.

Xelor:

-Rhol Bak: the spell is no longer castable under the effects of Gravity

Cra:

We have reviewed the majority of Cra spells to increase the effectiveness of this class in PvP. All spell points given back are returned given the number of spells changed. Here are the major changes:

-The randomness of Cras’ damage has been reduced to make their attacks more predictable and facilitate the establishment of reliable, attack-minded tactics.
-The differences in the power of spells at levels 1 to 5 have been reduced to make them viable at level 1 and thus reduce the points investment required for the class to be viable in PvP (over the course of coming updates, this change will also be applied to all other classes). Obstructive spells (reduction of range, MP or AP, for example) have been generally modified so as to be almost as effective a barrier at level 1 than at level 6.
-All Cra spells now have a usage limit per target in a single turn or a minimum recast time. This limitation helps us to facilitate balancing spells by allowing us much more easily determine the maximum potential defensive or offensive restriction over each turn. This restriction also allows us to more easily reduce the spells' AP cost to facilitate setting up combos without increasing the raw power of a spell. We also believe that these constraints encourage more players to make tactical choices between several different spells rather than repetitively using the best possible action.
-The differences critical hits and normal hits have been reduced to make builds that are not based entirely on critical hits more viable, and thus make the class more accessible, without making critical hit builds less efficient. Restrictive effects have been modified to be essentially the same on a normal hit as on a critical hit. We want the tactical effects of restriction not to be subject to the randomness of critical hits. We have therefore changed spells so that critical hits do higher damage above anything else.
-The recast time of some spells has been changed, and the durations of some effects reduced, to make a Cra's game more vigorous, less sensitive to unbewitching and to make them a more dangerous opponent. We believe that Cras were far too dependent on their spells bonuses, which made them very vulnerable to unbewitching. We want to limit the number of spells whose cooldowns exceed the duration of their bonuses. For spells with very powerful bonuses, but whose duration is short, we allow Cras to exercise greater control over their opponent's game, by imposing significant tactical decisions on their opponents. Specifically, exposing yourself to the attack of a Cra benefiting from its bonuses should be much more dangerous, but should not be continuous. The introduction more powerful bonuses with shorter durations allows us to further enhance the Cra's tactical game since the decision to use a spell that gives a bonus at the right time will have a significant impact on the outcome of battles. Furthermore, these changes allow us to better differentiate between offensive and defensive phases in a Cra's game to offer more varied game for Cras and their opponents.
-Extra negative effects on enemies have been added to some offensive spells in order to provide Cras with better control of their opponent's game.
-Spells critical hit rate at levels 1 to 5 are the same as at Level 6. As critical hit bonuses are increasingly easy to accumulate as a character progresses, it is generally not necessary to make critical hits less accessible at levels 1 to 5.
-The critical hit rate of spells have been standardised according to 3 levels: 1/30, 1/40 and 1/50. This standardisation allows certain levels [of critical hit rates] to be reached through temporary bonuses to critical hits. Each Elemental build has at least one offensive spell at rates 1/30, 1/40 and 1/50. Low level spells are the easiest to achieve [at 1/2] in order to make a critical hit build playable at low levels. The offensive spells that have recast times have the highest chance of a critical hit (1/30 generally) and have moderate critical hit bonuses so as not to make their use too random. Spells giving bonuses are also based on this "three level" system of critical hit rates. This system makes it more interesting for each elemental build to want to move into the next "level" of critical hit rates, as for each transition to the next level [of critical hit rates], at least two spells reach 1/2.
-The maximum potential reduction of MP through Cra spells has been reduced during one turn, but the average of MP removed per AP used has been increased. We want to reduce the randomness of the restriction caused by MP reduction. In return for reducing the maximum potential removal of MP, the number of spells that push back targets has been increased to allow Cras to more easily keep a safe distance from their opponents. We decided to focus on the effects of push back rather than reduction of MP because we believe that the effects of push back allow for more interesting tactical possibilities for the opponents, making their positioning much more important.
-The offensive capabilities of the class are increased when faced with opponents who use spells giving a temporary reduction in damage by increasing the potential damage of Cra's push back spells and with the addition of a poisoning effect of the 'new' spell 'Poisoned Arrow'.
-The effects of critical hits are modified to be consistently more effective than normal shots.
-The spell descriptions are updated.
-Spells that have a very large offensive potential now have a minimum range but increased offensive potential. We want to make Cras more dangerous at distance, but offset this by reducing their close combat potential. We've also increased Cras' ability to keep their opponents at bay.
-The range of the majority of Cra spells has been increased to give them an advantage when using long-range attacks without necessarily having to rely on temporary range bonuses.

Here is a list of Cra spells that have changed:

Magic Arrow: the damage is less random and is increased at all levels. The critical hit rate increases to 1/30 at all levels. The AP cost rises to 4 at all levels. The spell is limited to 2 turns per target within the same turn. The spell’s maximum range goes to 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 respectively. The spell now steals the target’s range. The spell steals 2 range for 1 turn at level 6. The damage on a crit is increased at levels 1 to 5. We have changed this spell to allow players to have better control over the opponent's range by being able to more quickly increase the differential between the enemy's range and the Cra's range. This change also partially offsets Distant Shooting's cooldown period.
Homing Arrow: this spell is now called "Poisoned Arrow". The range of the spell goes to 7 cells at all levels. The spell is limited to 1 use per target. The critical hit rate is now 1/30 at all levels of the spell. Damage is less random and is increased. The spell now causes Neutral damage over two turns. The spell now costs 4AP at all levels. The minimum range of the spell is now 2 cells. The first source of damage is applied at the beginning of the opponent's turn to avoid it being reduced or reflected. The spell's maximum range changes to 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. We've changed this spell to make it more effective against protection and damage reflection.
Retreat Arrow: the spell's damage is now less random and is increased at all levels. The spell now pushes back 3 cells on both normal and critical hits at levels 1 to 5 and 4 cells on both normal and critical hits at level 6. The critical hit rate is now 1/30 at all levels of the spell.
Frozen Arrow: the spell's damage is now less random and is increased at all levels. The spell removes 2AP on both a normal and a critical hit at levels 1 to 6. The spell is limited to 2 casts per target at levels 1 to 6. The spell's maximum range is now 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The critical hit rate is now 1/40 at all levels of the spell.
Burning Arrow: the damage is now less random, and is increased on a crit and a non-crit. The spell’s area of effect is now 4 cells at all levels. The critical hit rate is now 1/40 at all levels. The spell's maximum range is now 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 cells at levels 1 to 6. The spell costs 4AP at all levels. The spell is limited to 2 casts per turn. The spell now pushes all targets present in the area of effect back by one cell.
Distant Shooting: the duration of the range bonus is now 3 turns. The spell can be recast every 5 turns. The spell costs 2AP at all levels. The critical hit rate is now 1/30. The spell now gives a bonus to range in an AoE of 2 cells at levels 1 to 5 and 3 cells at level 6. We have changed this spell so it can replace Eagle Eye and so that one spell is enough to increase the range of the Cra and its allies.
Atonement Arrow: the damage is less random and is increased at all levels. The spell now causes Water-type damage. The spell can be recast every 3 turns. The maximum range of the spell is 10 cells and the minimum range is 8 at all levels. The critical hit rate is now 1/30 at all levels. The spell applies the state Gravity (which prevents the target from using movement spells) for 1 turn. The spell costs 4AP at all levels. The damage bonus cannot be unbewitched. We have changed this spell to reduce the hindrance caused by the Gravity state and give Cras another offensive long-range spell but with a significant minimum range constraint.
Bat’s Eye: The spell costs 3AP at all levels. The duration of the effects of reduced range last 3 turns at all levels. Range is reduced by 6 cells on both normal and critical hits at all levels. The spell can be recast every 4 turns at all levels. The spell now steals HP through water-type damage in all of the spells area of effect. The spell's maximum range is now 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Critical Shooting: The spell costs 2AP at all levels. The bonus to critical hits lasts 3 turns at all levels. The spell can be recast every 5 turns at all levels. The bonus to critical hits is now 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 on both a normal and a critical hit. The range of the spell is modifiable and the maximum range is now 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. A critical hit increases %damage.
Paralyzing Arrow: the damage is less random. The spell now causes Water-type damage. The spell costs 2AP at all levels. The critical hit rate is now 1/40 at all levels. The spell now steals 1MP on both a critical hit and a normal hit. The spells maximum range is now 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Punitive Arrow: damages are less random. The damage bonus on a crit and non-crit is increased at all levels. The spell can now be recast every 2 turns and gives a damage bonus for a duration of 2 turns which can significantly increase the spells damage when it is recast after 2 turns (damage is doubled). We changed this spell to enrich the Cra’s spells, to make a spell that is a significant deterrent and that has high offensive potential but that needs to be cast at the right time, and can potentially be countered by opponents. The damage bonus associated with the spell cannot be unbewitched. The critical hit rate is now 1/30 at all levels of the spell. The spell costs 4AP at all levels. The minimum range of the spell is now 6 cells. The maximum range of the spell is now 8 cells at all levels.
Powerful Shooting: The spell’s effect lasts 2 turns on both a normal and a critical hit at all levels. The spell costs 3AP at all levels. The spell’s range is modifiable and is now 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The spell increases damage by 110, 120, 130, 140, 150 and 250% damage on a normal hit and 130, 140, 150, 160, 170 and 290 on a critical hit at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The spell can be recast every 6 turns at all levels. The critical failure rate is now 1/100 at all levels.
Plaguing Arrow: the critical hit rate is now 1/40 at all levels of the spell. The spell costs 3AP at all levels. The spell is limited to two casts per target. Damage on a crit and non-crit is increased at all levels. The spell's maximum range is now 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Lashing Arrow: the damages are less random and increased at all levels. The spell is limited to 1 cast per target at all levels. The spell now removes 2MP for 1 turn at levels 1 to 5 and 3MP for 1 turn at level 6. Damage on a crit is increased at all levels. The spell's maximum range is now 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The spell costs 3AP at all levels. The critical hit rate changes to 1/40 at all levels. We have changed this spell to allow a large amount of MP to be reduced quickly so as to better manage the enemy's approach in the early turns of a fight, while being less sensitive to unbewitching. This change also allows this spell to work well with Paralyzing Arrow, since it can now be used without being penalized by the old reduction in MP that was made at the beginning of the opponent's turn.
Eagle Eye: this spell is replaced by "Tormenting Arrow". This spell causes Air and Fire damage, for 3AP at all levels with a limit of two uses per target, but with significant constraints: cast in a straight line with a minimum range of 5 spells. We have replaced Eagle Eye because it provided a way to get around Distant Shooting's cooldown, but also because the increased range of Cras' basic spells makes this spell less useful. Adding the ability to cast the spell Distant Shooting on allies in its AoE also helps to compensate for Eagle Eye being replaced. We chose to replace it with an offensive spell to compensate for Cra's lack of offensive potential.
Destructive Arrow: The spell costs 4AP at all levels. Damage is less random. Damage on a crit and non-crit is increased at all levels. The spell's maximum range is now 8 cells at all levels. The spell's minimum range is now 5 cells. As well as the initial damage, the spell now applies an additional penalty of fixed damages of 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 15 at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 to the target for a duration of one turn. The spell is limited to two casts per target. We have changed this spell in order to increase its offensive potential but have added a range restriction to it.
Absorptive Arrow: the damage is less random. The spell costs 4AP at levels 1 to 5. Damage on crit and non-crit is increased at all levels. The spell is limited to two casts per target. The critical hit rate is now 1/50 at all levels of the spell. The spell now has a minimum range of 5 cells. We have changed this spell in order to increase its offensive potential but have added a range restriction to it.
Slow Down Arrow: the damage is less random. Damage on crit and non-crit is increased. The spell costs 5AP at levels 1 to 5. The range of the spell is now 8 cells at all levels of the spell. The critical hit rate is now 1/50 at all levels.
Explosive Arrow: the damage is less random and increased at levels 1 to 4. The spell costs 4AP at all levels. The critical hit rate is now 1/50 at all levels. The range of the spell is now 8 cells at all levels.
Bow Skill: The spell's effects now last 2 turns. The bonus is increased at all levels of the spell. The spell can be recast every 5 turns at all levels. The range of the spell is modifiable and is now 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Dispersing Arrow: The spell costs 3AP at all levels. This spell can now move the caster as well. The spell’s range is now 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 cells at levels 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. We have changed this spell to potentially increase Cras’ mobility and give them the opportunity to get out of tackle zones more easily.

Enutrof:

-Slaughtering Shovel: the damage is less random. The damage on a critical hit is reduced and damage on a normal hit is increased at all levels. The average damage of the spell is increased at all levels. We changed this spell to make its operation more stable and thus make the spell more usable in a tactical game.
Conquest Villages:

-When attackers lose a fight against a village Heart, it will automatically re-appear just after their defeat.

PvP:

-Fights against the guards of cities or conquest villages correctly force the activation of all fighters’ PvP mode.
Mounts:
-It’s now possible to exchange more than one mount certificate at the same time for characteristic scrolls with the NPC Mounded Ghard.

Heroic Server:

-The Newtroll Knight will only join characters if the area was neutral when the character was attacked. It is therefore no longer possible for a neutral character to be helped by a Newtroll Knight if the prism of the area where the assault took place is defeated after the assault was launched.
-The spell scrolls for Soul Capture, Perfidious Boomerang, Moon Hammer and Mount Taming now work correctly when obtained after killing a character which had those spells. These adjustments are not yet retroactive. The old spell scrolls that do not work will be modified for the release of DOFUS 2.0.

PvP Quests:

-The DOFUS Client now prohibits the use of multiple accounts from one machine to attack or defend the target of a hunt. We believe that players who play together should be able to defend each other from attacks, but the use of multiple accounts by a single person should not allow them to protect themselves too effectively.

Monsters:

-Mushd: the monster is no longer aggressive.
-Crocodyl Chief: this monster is no longer aggressive.
-Immature Green Larva: no longer has the spell Backfire.
-Immature Orange Larva: this monster no longer has the spells Backfire or Carapace.
-Boomba: the spell Bombomb works correctly.

Pets:

-Pet Bonuses can no longer temporarily exceed their maximum at the time of the last increase in bonus.
-Soul Eaters can now retroactively benefit from the reductions in the number of monsters that need to be killed for them to earn bonuses. The retroactive bonus will be applied when they next gain a bonus.
-Bilby: The +damage bonus increases from 6 to 10.
-Bow Meow: This pet can now give a chance bonus if it is fed with Green Mice, Trout, or Gutted Trout.
-Bloody Koalak: as well as eating Boomerangs, this pet will now eat the following foods: Wild Koalak Femur, Reapalak Fabric and Koalak Warrior Bandage.
-QuaQuack: the maximum prospecting bonus increases from 10 to 20 and the maximum initiative bonus increases from 100 to 200.
-Peki: the maximum vitality bonus increases from 300 to 400.
-Little White Bow Meow: the maximum initiative bonus increases from 400 to 800.
-Little Black Bow Wow: the maximum damage bonus increases from 40% to 50%.
-Ross: The heals bonus increases from 6 to 10.
-Wabbit: This pet can now give an intelligence bonus if it is fed with the following resources: Demonic Rose Saliva or Five-leaf Clover. The maximum interval between two meals increases from 52 to 72 hours. In addition to Cawwots, it can now be fed the following resources to increase wisdom: Wabbit Leg, Wabbit Leg **, Wabbit Leg *** and Wabbit Leg ****.
-The majority of pets can now enjoy increased capacity by using Pet Enhancement Potions, which are made by Alchemists from resources that can be obtained at the Pet Cemetery and from several dungeons in the game.

Markets:

-A Fairywork Merchant is now available in the Trool Fair at coordinates [-10,-41].
-A Handymen’s Market is now available in Astrub at coordinates [5,-18].
-From now on, keys can be bought and sold in Handymen’s Markets. Keys that were already in the Resource Market before the update will be removed and put into their owner’s bank account.

Quests:

-Alignment Quests 61 to 70 are now available. The NPC Ali MacBeth, situated at [1,1] in the Duty Free area, will grant you alignment level 60 straight away in order to facilitate testing the quests.
-A new quest is available in Astrub in order to facilitate enrolment into the minority alignment.
-The XP and Kama rewards from most of the quests in-game have been increased.

Banks:

-The addition of objects or Kamas in banks when loading a character on a game server has been fixed.

Artificial Intelligence:

-Areas of Effect and obstacles: the AI better handles positioning and obstacles when using spells that have an Area of Effect. For example, Living Bag will correctly cast Sacrifice on its summoner when it is forced to move to find a line of sight on its summoner.
-Unbewitching: the weighting of bonuses and penalties has been standardised to facilitate the calculation of removing a spell’s effect.
Critical Hits: The AI now takes into consideration the actual probabilities of making a critical hit, taking into account the agility bonus and critical hit bonus.
Invisibility: the AI’s handling of invisibility has been completely revised. The AI now knows the position of invisible characters when they use a spell. The AI then determines, through the character’s remaining MP, a list of the invisible character’s possible positions and will attack a position chosen randomly from those present in the list. If the AI attacks an empty cell, it will attempt to target another cell if it has enough AP to launch another attack during its turn. If the AI enters a tackle zone while moving, it will attempt to target at random the invisible character’s possible position, until it finds it. We have changed the AI’s handling of invisibility to provide behaviour as close as possible to logical human reasoning: recording the last known position, calculating the possible positions depending on remaining MP, selecting a position and testing different positions until the target position is found. The AI’s handling of invisibility is very similar to players’ methods of detecting invisible characters, and so we hope that in PvM, management of invisibility will be much more enjoyable and tactical since the likelihood of a character being detected by the AI will now depend on the risk that the player has taken: the more MP a person has after casting their last spell, the more difficult it will be for the AI to detect them. This new system makes invisibility viable in PvM, both at short range and long range.
-AI performance improved.
-Carrying characters: The AI correctly handles carried characters and carrying characters. For example, it can target an immune, carried character in order to reach the carrying character.
-Pushback damage: The handling of the effects of pushback damage has been improved. The AI will more effectively calculate pushback damage.
-The AI will now more often prefer to attack the summoner than their summons.
Incarnam:
-It is no longer possible to return to Incarnam with characters whose level is greater than 15.
-The NPC Fairy Sette, in the Incarnam Inn, allows players to redistribute their characteristic points for free up until level 30.
-The map [2,3] in Incarnam is now a Market Square and can have up to 20 players on it in merchant mode.

Regeneration of Health Points:

-Health points regained by offline characters have been increased, characters will now gain 1HP per second they’re offline and 2HP per second they’re offline in an inn, a house or a class temple.

Miscellaneous:

-The price of weapon skill scrolls has been standardised. The scrolls are all worth 1,000 Kamas if sold to an NPC.
-The tile action bug has been fixed, it is necessary to have one character per tile. It is now no longer possible for one of the characters standing on a tile to activate a lever and make the server believe that they are still standing on the tile.
-The area in the Dark Vlad’s Labyrinth that had an inaccessible Malicious Chest in it is now accessible.

Updater:

-The Flashplayer version has been updated on Linux, which should resolve problems with the loading of language files when the game is launched.

In 3 days you will be able to activate your key on the DOFUS website. You will then receive an email confirming your access to the client download page and the forum dedicated to bug reports.

Be patient: only three short days to go!

DOFUS 2.0 is arriving in a little over two months!

We’ve decided to keep you up to speed with our hard work by publishing exclusive images from the revamped game.
You will get the opportunity to admire sketches for the new character classes, some screenshots of Amakna and various sprites.

This week, Fecas are under the spotlight!

See you soon for the new pictures...

Have you heard about DOFUS 2.0?

Twice as immersive, twice as powerful, twice as progressive...

DOFUS 2.0 will arrive December 2nd!

Until the official release of DOFUS 2.0, those lucky few who got a VIP key for the beta test will be able to use it soon! There’ll be a dedicated forum for them to report any bugs they find.
As for the others, they won’t get left behind, as the next important update to DOFUS will be on September 29: Update 1.29!
If that's not working extra hard, then we don’t know what is!

The international community has been deprived of an appointed Community Manager for too long now and, therefore, a direct contact with Ankama on the forum. For a time, Nabolo, Lead Community Manager, was able to talk with you while we waited for the arrival of our new recruit.

Unfortunately, for various reasons, the arrival of the new International Community Manager is still delayed. Moreover, Nabolo has left Ankama and there is nobody available at the moment to monitor the "Talk with the DOFUS Team” part of the forum on a daily basis.

For this reason, and in order to clarify the situation, I am going to close this section of the forum for the time being.

This is clearly an unsatisfactory situation and we will do everything we can to resolve it. We are currently recruiting a person who will be tasked with talking with you over the next few months until the arrival of your Community Manager.

I am aware that this will please you even less than it does us, but you can be sure that we will do everything we can to address this communication problem quickly.

Best regards,
Sylfaen, Community Manager for the francophone community.

Hello everyone,

Our web developers just checked the tournament's site, everything is fine. Actually, for players who'd like a few technical explanations, the login process used on the tournament's interface is exactly the same that we use on every Ankama's login interfaces (which means support, account management, forum etc). If our website have truly been hacked, I think than more than a 'few' people would have had their accounts stolen.

To be honest with you guys, I definitely think this comes from account sharing, which is absolutely forbidden for the record.

We are currently waiting for a few informations from the players who think they've been 'hacked' in order to make deep investigations about their cases. I should be coming back here in a few days to give you more details.

That’s the end of the pool stage! The 64 teams that have collected the most points thanks to their performances so far in the tournament and also to the support of their server during the community challenges have been chosen, and are now ready to face off against each other! From now on, any defeat will mean elimination! Only 32 teams will remain at the end of today.

The rule concerning time-based victories no longer applies. The fight will only end when all players in one team have been killed.

See the combat tree! - See the fight schedule

The sixth challenge begins on 22/08/2009 at 00h00 GMT +1 and ends on 23/08/2009 at 00h00 GMT +1.

This last Goultarminator event will test the harvesting professionals! Fish, scythe, chop, mine, dig; do whatever you must to make resource protectors attack you!

The server that kills the most resource protectors* by the end of the day will earn 50 points for its 4 teams.

* Server ranking will be based on the number of Resource Protectors (NB: Devourers, not Perceptors) killed in relation to the total number of people having at least one of the harvesting professions, subscribers or not, and regardless of their level.

Congratulations to the Nehra server which won Community challenge #4!

The fifth challenge has been going on for a while and will end on 23/08/2009 at 23h59 CEST.

60 alignment quests are now available in game! Get stuck into these quests, and make a name for yourself in one or the other of the two warring cities. Do it for your server!

The server with the most people on alignment level 60* will earn 50 points for its 4 teams.


* The ranking of the servers will be based on the number of people who have completed alignment quest 60 compared to the total number of aligned characters on each server.
Only aligned characters of character level greater than or equal to 50 and who log on at least once between 18/08 and 23/08 will be counted.

You have to fight as much Dopples as possible during the 24 hours with each character you have, multiple characters will give more points for your server
