ArcheAge Senior Producer Merv “Khrolan” Lee Kwai has taken to the game’s official forums to reassure the community. Despite last week’s layoffs that included Associate Producer Seraphina Brennan and QA Member Jessica Pate, and the unrelated departure of Community Manager Joe Brogno, the rest of the ArcheAge team is still hard at work on the game. “[E]ven during times of trial, we remain focused on the next big milestone,” Kwai wrote. More will be shared “as soon as possible”.

The ArcheAge forum has a new post with the patch notes for the July update that includes some pretty awesome stuff. One of the coolest things is that players can now head to either Marianople or Austera to view some works of art created by other players. The best part is that these works can also be purchased and placed in player housing. Purchases are made with Gilda Stars and the artist benefits from every one sold.

On July 186th, ArcheAge Fresh Start players will be primed for the next big update to the game. In Reign: Part 1, players will find the Dwarven and Warborn races added, and a new level cap to 55. The new races will feature their new starting areas and quest chains throughout the Airain Rock, Aubre Cradle and the Sunbite Wilds zones.

The ArcheAge team has sent word that the next phase of the ArcheAge: Legends Return fresh start servers will kick off on June 13th. Players on Legends Return will be able to take on the Serpentis raid, be able to claim new housing in the Golden Ruins and find that villains Meina and Glenn have returned to Auroria. Players will find new dungeons, raids and upgrades to enjoy as well as new daily quests and high level characters.

When ArcheAge “Legends Return” debuts next week, it will come with a new Shadow Invasion. These invasions will begin after any of the eight world bosses are defeated. Immediately after the world boss falls, new enemies will crop up that will require a minimum of ten players at 6K Equipment Score. Each Shadow Invasion has an underboss that is specific to that type of invasion and, once defeated, will drop a rare crafting material that can be made into a “valuable new trade pack”.

The ArcheAge site has been updated with a quick look at the dragons that will be coming in the 4.5 update, Legends Return. Players will be able to fly and fight on or beside dragons of immense power once raised to an age where they become combat-ready. Players will be able to take to the skies for up to 5 minutes of true flight and can even fight from the backs of their dragons. These dragons are no pushovers either. Each comes with a number of skills that can change the face of battle.
