Steam & Nightingale Planned Server Maintenance

Heya Realmwalkers,

For those of you playing on Steam, when the Steam maintenance window happens today:
- Already in-game? You should be able to continue playing (may get connection errors when traveling to a different Realm).
- Not logged in? You won't be able to join servers until the maintenance is complete.

For Steam Maintenance status updates, you can check this unofficial Twitter account: https://twitter.com/SteamStatus

We're also planning a hotfix to address the following:
-"Running out of GPU memory" error on graphic cards that exceed min spec
- Issues with arrow keys being used for key rebinds

To roll out this fix, we have to update both the client and the server, meaning players will need to be kicked from the game when it is rolled out. An exact time will be communicated before it happens, but it will likely be late tonight Mountain Time.

You will then need to update the game in order to get back into the Realms after the hotfix is pushed,

Thank you for you passion and patience.

Nightingale Site of Power locations and rewards

What are Nightingale Sites of Power? These open-world dungeons are semi-optional challenges that contain a wealth of loot, puzzles, and enemies. They also give you the rare opportunity to expand your collection of craftable Realm Cards, so they're well worth the effort it takes for any budding Realmwalker to complete them.

Sites of Power are a perfect activity for Nightingale multiplayer, though it's also possible to take them on solo - you can always recruit an NPC if you need an extra hand. Conquering a Site of Power in Nightingale typically bestows the crafting recipe for the relevant Nightingale Realm Card, though you'll have to defeat the Nightingale bosses that guard it first. Here's everything you need to know about Sites of Power in Nightingale.

How to increase Nightingale gear rating

How do you increase your Nightingale gear rating? Everything you do in Nightingale revolves around how powerful you are at that particular moment; the world defines you by the gear you carry, and there are places you won't be able to access if your equipment doesn't meet certain requirements.

The Nightingale release date is here, and those wandering the Faelands will likely have seen places and glimpsed enemies that are way above their current level. Nightingale doesn't have a traditional player-level system and instead opts for an overall gear rating to measure your current ability, with Sites of Power being hard-gated by this gear rating. Here's how to increase your Nightingale gear rating so you can take on the toughest challenges that the survival game has to offer.
