We're still planning on going forward with the PvP server merge Wednesday night at midnight PST. Initially only Venekor will be brought down to backup the database and export all of the data. When the export is complete, Nagafen will be brought down for us to merge the data. After the merge takes place, we have some other background tasks that could take a few hours. This includes cleaning up universal-chat, merging shared banks and updating player names and guild names that had conflicts. Be prepared for as much as a 24-hour downtime for Venekor players. Nagafen players will experience around 12 hours of downtime depending on how fast the processes go.

What this means:

The Venekor server will be brought down at midnight tonight, Wednesday October 21st. Nagafen will be brought down around 8am PDT on Thursday October 22nd.

Neither Butcherblock nor Lucan D'Lere should be affected by this downtime.

Please watch this thread for updates about the merge.

Discussion and questions can be directed to this thread.

Thank you all for your patience with this process and we apologize for the inconvenience.
