Looks like Thursday will be the day for Turbine to bring at least some of Update 3 to the Lammania preview server! Very exciting. Turbine's Tolero wrote on her My.DDO.com blog this week:
"...something nice for the Llama server that I’ve been itching for - I’m in the process of writing the final details on character copy! I had mentioned it a little on the forums a bit ago. I’ll have more info for Thursday on how it works and what it entails and all that jazz, but the general take-away is: it’s new stuff for Llama for the new year! Granted it is in beta stages at this point and I expect some funky behavior, but it’s definately a step in the right direction. Bah, back to Llama prep I go, more info will be coming on how it works and what you’ll be previewing and all that."
Very cool! We've already heard about Turbine's plans to offer one-way character ports to the preview server as a way to improve the experience (many of our characters were last ported over a long time ago). Also, it looks like at least part of Update 3 will be hitting Lammania on Thursday. Tolero wrote on the DDO.com boards today that we'll be getting the chance to check out Lesser and Greater Reincarnation along with various other things, including apparently the Wizard Pale Master II and III prestige enhancement line. I'll of course have more on this as soon as possible. No official downtime or update schedule announced as of this writing. |
