Hail Norrathians, The vote to unlock Kingdom of Sky content on BOTH Stormhold (PvE) and Deathtoll (PvP) has passed. This content is scheduled to unlock to players on Thursday, January 7, 2016. There are a lot of updates coming to Time-Locked Expansion servers after this content unlocks. To give you an idea of what’s coming: Adventure, Tradeskill and Guild Level will be raised to 70 Alternate Advancement Subclass Window will be unlocked with a 50 AA cap This launch will include a full balance pass for all TLE content level 30+, including existing encounters. All blue stats, with the exception of crit bonus, will be available on the server. Cloud Travel will be restored. Spire Travel will be restored on Stormhold (PvE) and Deathtoll (PvP), and reverted to its original design, teleporting players every 5 minutes. To make sure this content is done right, we’re opening up the beta server to test these updates for Time-Locked Expansion servers. The beta server will remain available through the first week of January. If you’re an All Access Member, you’ll be flagged with access to the beta server! Here is some information to help you get started in Beta: How to provide testing feedback: Use the /bug or /feedback command in game to open a window and submit information Post issues and suggestions in the TLE Kingdom of Sky Beta Forums How to copy your character over to the Beta server: Log in a character Stormhold (PvE) or Deathtoll (PvP) and then type the /beta command. To patch and get into the Beta servers: Open your station Launchpad In the top-left corner, click the 'Version' link which will open the 'Select Game Version' panel Choose 'Beta' in the drop-down menu and then hit 'Apply' to begin patching Hit 'Play' once the patching completes Other Key Points: Beta installs into a subfolder that takes about the same space as your live game version. Remember to set the 'Version' back to your regular setting to access your normal server. The Beta server may not be accessible at all times, as patching occurs when it is necessary. The Beta server is wiped periodically, meaning Beta characters may be deleted with or without notice. We look forward to hearing your feedback and seeing you on the Beta server!
Check out the first balance pass on the beta! If you have feedback after you have a chance to check it out, be sure to share it with us on the beta forums.

Any beta buffs available? Would be cool if I could test things/AAs on a variety of characters but I don't have any 60s yet. p.s.: fix beta forums plx
Yeah, I think more people would be interested in testing content if we didn't have to do the levelling process. I can't see to many people wanting to grind out their AA just to be wiped in a week. Content can't properly be tested without having full AA.
Scout defensive stance mitigation focus effect isn't working still. Been like this since release, but I'd expect it to be working in KoS.
You guys literally did change every item, which is nice. Good to see that even all the relics were updated. I'm looking forward to a lot of the items as-is. With that said, the Arm of Mithaniel Marr (Claymore 2.0 Mage reward) is a disappointment at the moment. Tarton's Wheel is still a comparable option unless this has hidden casting speed somewhere. Potency may slightly push it over Tarton's, but T5 vs T7..it's not a clear upgrade. Will post lots more feedback once forums are up..
Loving this. The TLE has been a great experience so far but I'm so glad for the improvements. I'll be checking out the test server soon. Thanks for the love!
Sigh...it's not on the Test server, it's on the Beta server, which are two entirely different beasts; Public Test is the next best thing to a "real" server (only with some XP help and all the Advanced Volumes of recipes); no need to power level through everything like with Beta, only to get it wiped (you keep what you kill--er, loot, etc.). I sigh because I think it should be tested first on Beta, then on Test to make sure it's working well before release, but unfortunately, the TLE servers don't have a TLE (Test) there...though they really should. :-/ Uwk
anyone else noticing a trend in the xpac pollings thus far? 1st vote NO, 2nd vote YES. Both servers. Fudging the voting?
It's been pretty fast to me. Is this the xpac where everyone wants to slow down a bit? (I can't remember, but seems like ppl wanted to stop a while in KoS.). Edit: I'm on Stormhold btw. It is interesting that both servers are moving forward at the same pace. It's going to be bad for me if DT stops and SH keeps voting expacs in LOL!!
i hope we both stop for a bit. i'm locked adventure on all my toons < 40 but i sure would like to finish grinding tradeskills for a bit.
this is complicated alone to get to the zone is aham "interesting" Than you get there you got to jump down a cliff as everybody knows but I did not know you cant get back up again the plants don't agro at all or maybe my I am just to fast. Got to do some more exploring I am a warlock thank you heaven but at least on Beta I will try to do things the hard way And in my opinion the public test server would be better than a regular server if we had more people playing on it every now and than you can get trades kills up pretty fast if you do writs . now I also understand why we get a xp bonus till the end of the year that way more people can get to the level cap before we get the next x pack. I shall do some trade skill writs and level up my woodworker .
It would be nice if we got a reward for testing this new x pack something unique for the time locked servers.
When I look at my AA window, and hover my mouse cursor over Tradeskill AAs, it says they are unlocked during KoS. Will you be unlocking them at the same time as AA Subclass, or will it be unlocked later into the KoS schedule?
