We would like to remind you that all the official servers will have a scheduled wipe this [b]Friday, April 1st[/b]. No, no April fool jokes planned :) As you may know, all official [b]PvP[/b] servers currently have accelerated [b]5X[/b] rates and wipe [b]every Friday[/b] to ensure a level playing field and offer a fresh economy with each new round. It's a major event that brings many players to compete with each other, starting from a common point. On these fast-paced 5X servers, you [b]can focus on fights and raids[/b] non-stop which is the most fun aspect of the gameplay in PvP. Recovering after getting raided is also much easier. Likewise, all official [b]PvE[/b] servers will also have their regular wipe on the same day. Unlike the PvP servers, however, PvE servers have their regular scheduled wipes every [b]6 weeks[/b] instead. Feel free to join any of the official PvE servers for a fresh round of economic and technological competition and race to reach the highest faction score on any of the regional PvE servers. [b]Wipe time:[/b] 1 PM by GMT/UTC time (as usual). For your convenience, here is the local time in the primary time zones we have: • 8 AM by Central US (CDT, GMT-5 summer time) • 3 PM by Central EU (CEDT, GMT+2 summer time) • 16:00 by Russia/Moscow (GMT+3) • 21:00 by China/Beijing (GMT+8) • 10 AM by Argentina/Brazil (GMT-3) • 10 PM by Japan and South Korea (GMT+9) [h3]Discontinued servers[/h3] With this wipe, we will discontinue [b]Asia PvP[/b] server in favor of other PvP servers. Official South America servers are [b]not[/b] discontinued, however, we had to change our hosting provider in São Paulo which may affect your ping and overall connection quality in a better or worst way depending on the international routing for your local ISP.
