Albion Online Dev Tracker

Hi everyone!

On Monday, Dec. 13 we will be performing brief maintenance on our website starting at 10UTC, same as our regular server Maintenance.

During that time, the website cannot be accessed. The Forum and Wiki will still be available, but you won't be able to log in.

The Maintenance is expected to last roughly 10-15minutes.

If by any chance it lasts longer than that, we will keep you updated in this post as well as on discord.

Kind regards,

The Lands Awakened update launched November 24, ushering in a new era of open-world gameplay in Albion Online. Along with sweeping changes to biome graphics and layouts, dungeons, mobs, open-world objectives and Guild Seasons, the update brought some major quality-of-life improvements to a wide variety of ingame activities. In our latest Dev Talk, UI Designer Moritz Bokelmann discusses some of the biggest improvements to UI and usability that arrived with this latest update.

Hello everyone,

With today’s downtime, we made some follow-up changes to two issues addressed in Hotfix 3 and Hotfix 6.

Season Point Breakdown

After we corrected an issue with Might Level progression, some guilds had Season Point Breakdowns that no longer represented the actual amount of Season Points gained in each respective Might Level category.

This has been corrected, and the Season Point Breakdown now shows the appropriate values.

Conqueror’s Challenge Weekly Reset

Last Saturday, we encountered an issue where players that had completed their Weekly Conqueror’s Challenge and were also online at the time the server went down for maintenance didn’t have their Weekly Reward reset correctly.

We corrected this issue yesterday in Hotfix 6.Since it was too late in the week to realistically ask most of these players to complete their challenge, we instead opted to not reset their chall... Read more

Hello everyone,

With the upcoming Energy Surge season beginning September 25, guilds will have the opportunity to earn HQ Hideout status for one of their Hideouts beginning with Season 14. Based on community feedback on this feature, we have updated the requirements for earning an HQ Hideout during the Energy Surge season. Please note that these numbers are balanced for the Energy Surge season, and the various Season Point and zone type requirements will likely change in future seasons.

Hello everyone,


We have been made aware that there is currently an issue with how fast Guild Might levels are being earned at the moment.

We will apply a change on Monday Nov 29 to address this issue and balance the speed at which you can earn these levels.

On Tuesday Nov 30 we will modify the Season Points that have already been earned to synchronize them with the new balancing.

Please note that as the current season’s HQ qualifications don’t begin until Patch 1, excess Season Points acquired before this change will not affect HQs in any way.

You can find out more about the changes to HQ qualification with Patch 1 ... Read more

Lands Awakened Update - Hotfix 4

Fixes

• Resolved an issue that caused some Hellgate NPCs to yield much more fame than intended. These NPCs now correctly give 20% more Fame than they did previous to the Lands Awakened update. The same issue affected Aspects and Group Resource Mobs in the Roads of Avalon as well as Territory Guards to a lesser degree. Those have been fixed as well.
  
• Resolved an issue that caused Energy Manipulator Battlevaults in Hideouts to lose their contents when upgrading from Level 2 to Level 3. Further information about replacement of items lost due to this bug will be posted in the coming days.
  
• Fixed an issue where Achievements related to Expeditions and Crystal League would unlock even though the correct conditions were not fulfilled.
  

---------------UPDATE: this issue has been fixed with Hotfix #5, footage can still be submitted to support----------------------

Lands Awakened Update - Hotfix 3
Desktop versions of the game (PC, Mac, Linux) have received new clients
Mobile versions (iOS, Android) have received a 'softpatch', i.e. there will be a small download when you launch the app

Guild Might Level Fix

This hotfix corrects an issue where Guild Might Levels were progressing much faster than intended. This means that your guild will keep the Total Might earned by category thus far, but since the Might Level progression is now different, your Guild’s Might Level will be reduced to the new intended level.

Any Season Points earned due to the faster level progression before this fix will be removed again in the coming days, so no guild will keep any advantage from this bug. For more information, see this post: ... Read more

Hi everyone,


It has come to our attention that there is currently an issue with the Energy Manipulator Battlevault in Hideouts.

Level 2 Hideouts do now have an Energy Manipulator as well, however,

When upgrading the HO to level 3, the Battlevault at the Energy Manipulator currently loses all it’s content. Meaning that anyone who has gear in that chest during a Hideout upgrade will lose it once the upgrade is finished.

We are currently working on a solution for this bug and will keep you updated on the progress.

Rest assured: everyone who lost their Items will be able to retrieve these Items in the Hideout Bank after the fix goes live. Additionally, the chest will not lose its content anymore so you are safe to store your items there once again.

Until then please be aware of this issue and take your Items out of the Battlevault while the HO is under construction.

We are sorry for the inconve... Read more

• Fixed an issue where certain Achievements related to the Destiny Board did not unlock (they will still unlock retroactively now)

On November 24, 2021, the Lands Awakened update goes live. This update improves and expands nearly every aspect of Albion's open world: reworked open-world dungeons with limited-time events and exits in multiple zones, as well as open-world mobs that increase in power and value over time, offer substantial rewards to those who venture into unexplored zones. All five biomes have been overhauled with massively improved visuals and updated terrains and layouts, bringing new depth and vibrancy to exploration, travel, and gathering, and an expanded soundtrack with new city, Hideout, Tutorial, and Destiny Board themes, as well as numerous new combat cues, adds excitement and emotion to the world.
