Merv “Khrolan” Lee Kwai has penned the latest Letter from the Producer on the ArcheAge site. In it, he quickly runs down the game’s most significant updates and improvements over the past month and then gives players a look ahead at the future.

The ArcheAge site has been updated with an important notice to players that auction house mergers are incoming. Prior to the merger process, players will not have the ability to post new auctions for approximately two days (49 hours, but who’s counting?). Once the time has passed, all existing auctions will have expired and the merger process can begin.

Trion is inviting all current and former ArcheAge players to log in this weekend between now and Tuesday, March 29th. As a reward for doing so, players will score five free days of Patron status that unlocks a number of perks including a larger labor capacity, faster labor regeneration, access to the auction house or arena from anywhere in the world, and up to five Loyalty Tokens per day.

ArcheAge players are going to feel a bit richer with a free gift of three Reward coins thanks to Trion Worlds. In thanks for avoiding any interaction with the disciplinary system, those players with characters made prior to January 15, 2016 and who have logged in at least once in the last thirty days, this reward will be made available via the ArcheAge account management page in Glyph.

The ArcheAge site has good news for most players, bad news for those who choose to use third-party bots and hacks. A new program has been put into place that has significantly improved the team’s ability to detect the use of bots and to subsequently put into play new enforcement rules.

The ArcheAge team has a pair of cool notes for players. The first comes in the announcement that paid character transfers will be opening again on “leap day”, February 29th. For about 2700 Credits, players can purchase a Character Transfer from the Glyph Store. Be sure to head to the ArcheAge site to read the fine print and preparations for leaping to a new server.

From now through March 8th, ArcheAge players can take on some extra daily quests outside Mistsong Summit that offer the chance to take down Dochul, Sojung and Aria on either Easy or Normal modes. Each successful completion yields Daru’s Gift Box that can offer a number of rewards.

Trion Worlds has made a post on the official ArcheAge forums regarding a server first kill of Leviathan boss by the guild called “Rage Quit”. According to reports of other players and the summary by forum moderators, the guild utilized an exploit to complete the kill. As a result of taking advantage of the exploit, all members participating in the event got permanently banned, the guild has been disbanded and all loot gained has been removed from the world.

ArcheAge NA is just about 100% caught up with its KR forebear, as today patch 2.5 launches on the Trion Worlds servers, bringing with it tons of new content. Not the least of which, the game’s hardest 5-man dungeon to date comes in the form of a deadly opera house with more than a few secrets and tough bosses to be conquered. Read on for the full details.

The ArcheAge community team will be hosting a special live stream concert on Friday, January 22nd at 1:30 pm Pacific / 4:30 pm Eastern. The concert will feature the women who make up the band Invocation Array and the music of Mistsong Summit.
