Arch Server New Reset - May 11, 2013

Post by Laanders » May 11th 2013 20:32

Arch Server will restart at Mon May 13 08:00:00 2013.
Armageddon is scheduled to begin at Sat Jul 13 16:00:00 2013.

Changes from previous set

Changes:
  • Hero generation rate reduced by 33% (to 1 hero/hour average)
  • Orcish Archer and Wolf Raider changed:
    • Unit stats returned to pre-November 19th 2010 values
    • Unit stats are now identical to those on other servers
Comments:
The change in hero generation rate is an adaptation to the reduced player base, aimed at making heroes less excessively abundant (and cheap.) It follows on a similar reduction made in January 2011, from the original (also TR standard) value of 2 heroes per hour average generation rate.

The normalization of the affected recruitables follows on similar changes on beta and lightning. There is a long-term objective to revamp barracks units and make them more usable overall in the game, but until that happens, we will avoid isolated units with stand-out stats like these.
