ArcheAge News

Adventurers!

EU maintenance for ArcheAge has started at 08:00am UTC and is currently on-going. We'll share the full patch details with you soon!

Downtime was expected to be for 6 hours. Currently there are no changes to this plan.

The Garden of the Gods: birthplace of magic, the Gods you know, and of Erenor itself! Created by the Mother Goddess Thiol, it has been for many a legend, and for others, a dream of paradise. The only thing keeping you from the secrets that lie within the Garden of the Gods is the Garden's door.

Dangerous monsters, more dangerous bosses, secrets, quests, and beautiful scenery are just a few things that await you on the other side of that door. From June 4, 2020, until June 10, 2020, we want you to show us your hype in the Navel of the World for a chance to win either an ArcheAge - Garden of the Gods Archeum Pack or ArcheAge: Unchained Garden of the Gods Archeum DLC! Nothing is as fun alone as it is with friends, so grab your friends to join you in your screenshot, video, or GIF.

Gather your friends, family, and guild members for a screenshot, GIF or video in front of the Garden Door in the Navel of the World from our Public Test Server! Any GIFs or videos should not be longer than 15 seconds and should reflect your creativity and wit. Edit it with text, filters, cool transitions, and a whole lot of emotes. If you aren't sure where to go, the Navel of the World is located in Eastern Hiram Mountains!

You can enter our contest via Twitter using the #ArcheAgeGotG or through our Facebook channels (ArcheAge Free-to-Play post here, and the ArcheAge: Unchained post here] for a chance to win!

There are no limits on how many entries you can submit, so the more entries you submit, the greater your chance of winning a pack!

What can I win?

4 winners will be randomly selected to receive an Archeum Garden of the Gods pack for their preferred version of the game: ArcheAge or ArcheAge: Unchained.

4 winners who meet the criteria will be randomly selected to win either an ArcheAge - Garden of the Gods Archeum Pack or ArcheAge: Unchained Garden of the Gods Archeum DLC. Winners will be contacted via Direct Messages on the platform on which they submitted their entries. All 4 winners will be announced on our Blog, Steam Forum, Facebook, Discord and Twitter.


• All screenshots, videos, and GIFs should be taken in front of the Garden Door in the Navel of the World.
• Entries should be submitted via Twitter using the hashtag #ArcheAgeGotG or on the relevant Facebook post of the version of the game you'd like to win the pack for. ArcheAge Free-to-Play's post is here and ArcheAge: Unchained's post is here.
• All submissions must be received between June 4, 2020, and June 10, 2020, 23:59 UTC

Thank you so much to all of our participants and their beautiful entries!

Beginning on June 4th, 2020 you will be blessed by the Gatekeeper Kyprosa herself with the Garden’s Blessing Event! Once a day, you can be rewarded with the Gatekeeper’s Bundle in your mail by remaining in-game for 30 minutes continuously. You will only be able to receive one coffer once a day per account during this event period.

What is the Gatekeeper’s Bundle?

The Gatekeeper’s Bundle is received after 30 minutes of uninterrupted in-game activity once per day during the event period, and it is sent by mail. Each Gatekeeper Bundle contains the following:
2x Sage Taffy
2x Tiny Treasure Taffy
4x Adventurer’s Goblet of Honor
10x Gilda Star
1x Gatekeeper’s Orb*

*Collecting 5 Gatekeeper’s Orbs will grant the title ‘LFG Garden’! This title has no stats and is Arcane grade.

Please Note: The Sage Taffy and Tiny Treasure Taffy disappear after 24h of opening the Gatekeeper’s Bundle. Additionally, the Gatekeeper’s Bundle will disappear when the event ends on June 11th.

Get your title and rewards before they disappear!

It's time to celebrate! The Equipment Growth and the Call to Arms Events have been extended until June 11th! Make sure to take full advantage of the double quest rewards from the quest givers of Reedwind and beyond to prepare you for the vicious battles and bosses that await you behind that gate to the Garden of the Gods. If you haven't already, make sure that you've taken advantage of your 18 quest allowances for the Equipment Growth Event while it's extended to exchange the Reward Gems for infusions of your choice or crates!

Get Reward Gems for completing a quest that you can get from Mirage Isle's Event Quest Exchanger and exchange the Gems for infusions or crates to upgrade your gear to prepare for the fight that awaits you past that Garden Gate! To read the full news about this event click here!

Don't forget that the quest givers in Reedwind, Sungold Fields, Exeloch, Western Hiram Mountains and Eastern Hiram Mountains have doubled their rewards! Receive double the amount of infusions, awakening scrolls and experience for completing your daily quests. To get all the details about this event click here!

What are you waiting for? Get to questing before these powerful events end!

The Public Test Server is open once more and ready for you to come test out the latest patch. Experience the Garden of the Gods first hand with your family, friends, and guildies! Our Public Test Server is targetted to be open on Monday, June 1st, 2020. However, there is a possibility the Test Server may be open prior to this date.

Head to the Eastern Hiram Mountain and (carefully) traverse the stairs down towards to the Navel of the World to get to the Garden Gate!

Fight Powerful Bosses: Anthalon will spawn on Saturday and Sunday at the Delphinad Mirage.

Upgrade your Gear: Upgrade your existing boss gear, Hiram gear, and Erenor gear or try to get your hands on the newest gear: The Dread Necromancer Gear, dropped by Anthalon himself.

All while testing out the server and content out during this major testing period! We could use your help in help identifying bugs, localization issues, and more. Please provide all feedback and bug reports in the thread here.
