1. We have a dedicated Player Test Environment on our QA server available for player use. This server will be kept open with periodic database resets, when we will copy the database from the live server. The server database will be updated at least twice a month during a scheduled maintenance window.

    Though players are welcome to use the QA server to experiment or test anything they wish, we will post patch notes and testing directives in this area. Players testing new content, features and systems will greatly help in reducing post release bugs and making the game better.

    To assist players in helping us make the game better, the Test Server will award login bonuses in CotOs and Gold coins to allow players to purchase resources or anything they may need to test from the Crown Store and/or from the in game vendors. In Addition, the Developers will announce dates/times when Dev Assisted Player Test Events will occur on the QA Server.

    Please use the Test Environment Bug and Feedback forums for QA Server activities only.

    You can help test by downloading a new SotA Launcher(QA) installer to download a separate QA copy of the game. It exists independently from the regular live version of the game and installs to a separate folder. To use the Player Test Environment, please download the QA Server client here:

    Windows: https://d2sx9mrt4zumaq.cloudfront.net/Installers/SotAInstaller(QA)-1.2.0.exe

    Mac: https://d2sx9mrt4zumaq.cloudfront.net/Installers/Shroud of the Avatar - Installer(QA) 1.1.0.pkg

    Linux Package: https://d2sx9mrt4zumaq.cloudfront.net/Installers/shroud-of-the-avatar-launcher-qa_1.1.0_amd64.deb

    Greetings!

    An issue was reported in a forum post here that Newly crafted Exceptional items were not getting/displaying full durability.

    The issue has been corrected and the fix is now present on the QA server. Any players who have experienced this issue may want to assist us in verifying that the bug has been squashed by crafting a few items on QA prior to the build going on live next Thursday.

    Also ... as a thank you for being patient while the durability issues were resolved, all items have been granted a repair boost of up to 50 points. So ... if you have an item that was showing 16/75 it will show 66/75. If the item's max durability is less than 50, then it will be completely repaired (for example: 2/20 will become 20/20).

    This is currently on the QA server as well, and will be put on the Live Server during the update to R84.
