Please remember that all times listed above are estimated. Realms could return to service a bit earlier or later than posted.

Also, as all maintenance schedules are provided in PDT (Pacific Daylight Time), should you not live on the pacific coast, you will need to adjust this time accordingly. Here's a quick to reference, however:

Last but not least, don't forget that this is an excellent time to run maintenance on your own systems by completing any pending OS, browser, and anti-malware software updates and then scanning your computer for possible threats. You may also want to read over the following sticky detailing a recently discovered vulnerability in several Adobe applications:

My apologies folks, Lightbringer was taken out of service one hour earlier than the other realms for a little extra attention, but it is still in the normal maintenance group.

Q u o t e:
The Lightbringer realm was brought down for additional maintenance at 4:00AM PDT, one hour before our scheduled weekly maintenance. This realm is expected to become available for play alongside the regular maintenance schedule. Apologies for the delayed notice.

Hey, folks! Quick update: All realms except those included in the extended maintenance are now online and available for play. :)

Should you experience any issues with login or game play and are not playing on a realm undergoing extended maintenance, please let us know. We're continuing to monitor the stability of online realms and would greatly appreciate your reports.

Thank you!
