Why the long maint?

Keeping with my tradition of always being on the cutting edge of things, I have no idea why the maintenance today is so long.

What are they doing?

New expansions always come with lengthy maintenance’s, think yourself lucky that this isnt TBC release, we had 14 hour maintenances back then which would extend up to 3 times

An expansion released less than a month ago.

It isn’t just maintenance, they are pushing a lot of bug fixes, nerfs and buffs into the game with resets as well.

Swarf, should know better.

Let’s see Azure Span has been a hot mess for some people just to name that. There’s the centaur arena quest chain that’s buggy letting multiple groups spawn multiple bosses, all kinds of things need fixin.

Lots of class updates and dungeon nerfs

They’re also fixing that artisan’s mettle professions glitch that was in the game since DF released.

Well, I don’t, so hold my hand and explain it to me like I’m five; and do it with a smile on your face.

Yeah… today is my only day off this week. Why not do the maintenance over-night when there is the least amount of player volume because most people will be asleep. Have your employees work from home remotely and do maintenance on the server. Ridiculous every Tuesday game is down for the half the day.

The servers require different levels of “why maintenance” topics before they can reboot.

I now understand. Thank you.

Basically, the glitch enabled players that knew of it to repeat certain quests over and over when the quests weren’t supposed to be be repeatable except for once a week.

And not your partner either so don’t ask to hold hands.
