    The time for beta testing is now.


    Laurion’s Song beta is upon us, and we are so excited for you all to check it all out! Don’t believe us? Check out the beautiful expansion page we launched today!


    [IMG]

    Beta started today, and if you’d like to jump in with others, please head to our pre-order page to reserve your copy of the expansion, which will instantly grant you access to Beta. Pre-ordering also grants you three Crucible Steel Weapon Ornaments of your choice. Once you’ve secured your copy of Laurion’s Song, you should also immediately gain access to the Beta forums as well. If, for any reason, you cannot see or post to them, please contact Angeliana via private message. Beta testing for Laurion’s Song will end once the expansion is ready to launch. You can learn more about how to join beta by clicking here.

    As chaos looms overhead, you will be tasked with assisting some of Norrath’s most notable heroes in righting wrongs. Pull up a stump, have a seat, and listen to the stories and memories of each hero. You never know what you might hear.

    Key Features to check out on Beta today:
    • Level Cap Increase to 125
    • New Zones
    • New Raids, Missions, and Quests
    • New Collections
    Features still a work in progress (check out on beta in the future):

    So exciting!

    Can you tell us if the new Alternate Personas will work on TLP servers?

    Another quick question - will we have to start the persona from level 1 or can we "absorb" an existing character from our list of characters?

    Sleep with a dev. I know, right? Sexual harassment in this day and age...

    Some quests you can just earn tokens from completion. Everyone on dev lead raids gets tokens. Sitting in PoK on Beta will get you tokens sometimes if a dev is randomly handing out. Devs will call for players to go to certain zones/try certain tasks/etc and hand out tokens in that zone, when done with quest, etc.

    If in a raid guild that has a dev raid or two (or joining an underfilled dev raid), you will generally get enough. If not, your best bet is to stay logged in, in PoK when not doing anything and if doing something, make sure to do quests and send in feedback.

    Looks like they will be on TLP, and while you will not be "absorbing" any of your alts you can use heroic upgrade with personas.

    Posting this once and yes I know it will get buried. But hosting a death rolling tournament on Vox in PoK on Saturday 10/14 at 12pm PST. There is no buy in. You don't need to wager, or play on Vox, so bring a level one if you want. This is benefitting Extra Life. I will set it up based on participants. Winner will walk away with a free tradeable copy of Laurion's Song, runner up some Kronos (or a mount, or maybe... another copy of Laurion's Song... spooky mystery for Spooktober.)

    Player 1 /ran 32000, Player 2 /ran the result of Player 1s roll, Player 1 /roll the result of that, etc, repeat til a player hits 0. First player to hit 0 "dies" (death) and loses. Usually this is done with two wagers, but in this case, it will be a tournament. Loser will just be eliminated, winner will move on. Nothing lost, no stakes on your part to play. Just a fun thing to raise some awareness and have a fair shot at a free copy of the expansion.

    Will cover it at the event, it's very easy.

    Ok...so never pre-purchased (that I remember)... if you get the cheapest version, can you upgrade to a more expensive version later?
