    Hail Norrathians!

    We're incredibly excited to announce the launch date for Blood of Luclin, December 17, 2019! The team has so many cool things that they are working on while beta is still going on!

    Want to join us in beta?

    Pre-order today!

    One More thing! A quick note regarding pre-orders and expansion purchases. There will be a 72 hour hold on tradeable items in the Friends & Family edition within the period before launch - through the sale of the F&F edition.

    What does this mean for you? If you want to make sure the items are tradeable on launch day be sure to buy the edition at least 72 hours before launch day!

    Good news but we know the exact time please? Also do we know how long the downtime will be on 17th? thanks

    We can pre - order up until the day before, correct? We need 2 pre orders so we need to space it out. Haha.

    Is there going to be a livestream showing what the new expansion is? Like the others had beforehand?

    There will not be a livestream until much closer to launch. At or around launch day.

    I will be there! Oh yes, I will be there.

    As with every expansion, downtime is anywhere from 5 hours to all day.
    Just prepare for it.

    Sorry Dreamweaver, that week doesn't work for me. Would you see what you could do to move it up to Dec. 10th instead. ;)

    Can we get the stats on the items between the packs? For example:

    What are the stats on Mount Umbra? Or is this just an appearance mount?
    What type of mercenary is Tarsil the pure? I'm guessing a tank, but what kind?
    What are the stats on Mount Skygge? Or is this just an appearance mount?
    What type of mercenary is Horthis? I'm guessing a scout, but what kind?
    With the overseers, I'm assuming the standard package gets at least one or two. With the Collectors edition you gain the three additional from the "Collector's Overseer Pack" for a total of 4 or 5. With the Premium edition, you would get three additional from the "premium overseer pack" for a total of 7 to 8? Or are all these just upgrades to the originals ones? like better stats for the initials ones given

    I want to ensure I buy the right version asap so that I can get into beta, but there's not enough about the items for me to make a decision.

    Thanks for all the hard work your team is doing!

    I am almost certain that you can buy the basic expac now to get beta access, and then upgrade to a superior expac come launch day, and the cost of the basic expac is deducted.

    Can a Dev pls confirm this?

    It's worked that way in the past. But with some expansions, the "upgrade" took days to get applied

    Unless the new mercs are already in the beta (and the mounts/illusions), it doesn't help for me to buy one of the lower versions at this point. Can someone verify that the mounts and mercs are in the beta?

    I have a CC here ready to buy at least the Collectors version (for each of my two accounts), but want to know if the additional in premium is worth it or not.

    well the mount you got in Chaos Descending (skoria) you could upgrade after doing the signature line and she has like 6k potency and is not far behind the best mount except the cobalt crate one, so maybe the cobalt crate one will be around what the mount in the premium edition has, so 15k potency?
