Should be the last time we need this diagram…

Server-Merges-2015d

From the EQ2 Forums:

The server consolidation for the Freeport, Permafrost, and Nagafen servers merging into Skyfire will start on Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at 7AM PST*. This downtime is expected to take 24 hours, which means these servers are scheduled to be unavailable until Thursday, November 12, 2015 at 7AM PST.*

Important Notes for Players:

  • Players should pick up soulbound (NoTrade) items from shared housing (such as Guild Halls) BEFORE the merge. This will prevent losing ownership of placed items during this merge.
  • When the consolidation is complete on Thursday, players should delete their “logincache-us” or else LaunchPad character logins may fail.

Note that the Terrors of Thalumbra Beta server will also be available to players during this downtime. To learn more about theTerrors of Thalumbra Beta, visit this link.

We appreciate all of our players’ patience and support during server consolidations. If you haven’t been keeping up on server merges, you can find out more in our most recent FAQ here.

    Oh bloody lovely. I get a day off on our guild’s Founders’ day, no less, and that’s our merge day.

    Also, Veterans’ Day, so holiday, so good luck of things go pear shaped.

    Really getting sick of getting poked in the eye so often.

    so, I say good. I can play on Deathtoll while waiting. But looking forward to the changes for Nagafen. Not ideal.. but its a least better than it is.

    I’ll probably be hung over after my birthday the day before lol! I’m kidding! Looks like I’ll be playing on the Test server or Beta.

    Please also consider merging Valor, Splitpaw (and perhaps Storms).
    I don’t know about the latter, but both Valor and Splitpaw feel rather dead most of the time.

        You just need a few phrases and you would have grouping…

        Mehr dps Sie Fett Bastard!
        (DPS in!)

        Stoppen Sie in Beschlag die Bard Büffelleder!
        (Can I have your buffs?)

        Bewegen Sie Ihren Arsch mit aller gebotenen Eile!
        (Joust!)

      Splitpaw is the more active of the three. I don’t see why they couldn’t merge them though. I know their clients have been localized, but that shouldn’t affect anything technically, right? Of course, some players might not understand each other, but this is a common problem on Splitpaw anyway (some Czech, Polish, Scandi guilds, etc.)
