Week #2: Improved Stability, Armory and more
Posted 10 years ago
Discussion
Dear Players,
as you may have already noticed we recently achieved significant improvements to Kronos’ stability. Since these fixes we have already seen continuous server uptime exceed 48 hours. We will of course keep addressing any upcoming issues negatively affecting server stability and continue to make Kronos as reliable as possible.
This week we also have the Beta version of the TwinStar Armory for you, that now includes characters from Kronos. You can check it out here, but be warned that it is only a Beta version and, for example, item stats are currently not correctly displayed. We will be resolving issues and adding further features and functionality to the Armory over time.
Additionally we would like to give you an overview our donation system. Donations are rewarded with TwinStars. Information on how to donate and how many stars a certain donation rewards can be found in the TwinStar Account Manager. This is where you can also find the shop, with a list of all currently available mounts, vanity pets and vanity items. Note that you will have to login to your TwinStar Account to view these pages. Over time we may add additional pets, mounts or tabards, however as previously stated, no other kind of items will ever be available through donation. As we would like to keep the items available through donate at least somewhat rare, we have have also recently adjusted the prices to better reflect Kronos’ current population.
Last but not least we have a Changelog for you, detailing last week’s work.
