We are nearing the end of the QC for the updates. Information will be available soon.

As for smithy invites, originally we were going to be limiting these to only being able to obtain one per Duskruin event (separate from certificates). We changed that due to the delay. I realize there won't be as much time to earn a second one, but you will have the option once the smithy is opened.

This is very good news. I even like the idea of being able to earn a second invite (though I wish they could flip the switch on that now and make them start to accumulate).

I guess it could be an 'only one at a time' system, which would sorta make sense. So use your invite ASAP (maybe even tonight??) and get grinding on another one.

problem is we don't know. I'm running low on entries, so last night I considered whether or not to buy SCs, and I decided to not and wait for the release.

To clarify invites, they are intended to be rare. They weren't intended for everyone to get one. They are an added bonus to your arena wins. Winning an arena match has a small chance to get an invite, getting a perfect win (250 bloodscrip) ups the chances by x10. Doing a quick look, I see about 70% of all arena goers having earned one at this point.

Don't feel too bad, being in the 30% there. This character didn't exist until about two weeks ago, so this is all this run.

pretty impressive for a new character to run trains through the arena like that.

Kicking warmage. Started at level 11. Now level 14.

Love the unbalance flaring boots and gloves from Bare Aggression for the arena.

People never want to believe me when I tell them UAC warmages are better than claids early on...

Is there anyone out there who's gotten an invite from a perfect run? I'm still wondering if something's bugged there...

I have invites on two characters from perfect runs.
