Hello everyone,

Beginning today, we have updated how the Black Market buffers items before transferring them to the open world.

Here's how it works:
  • In order to prevent issues where high value chests would receive less than the intended value, we've improved the Black Market algorithm to buffer drops more effectively and thus always retain enough items to fill high-value chests effectively.
  • To prevent shock in the system as we start to buffer items, the buffers will fill slowly, so this entire change will happen slowly over the coming days and weeks.
  • During the adjustment phase, it is possible you may see slightly reduced drop chances for some items, as these are filling the buffer. However, fill rates have been chosen to keep this effect minimal.
  • No changes have been made to the overall drop rate of items, and Black Market demand will continue to be generated as normal.

Albion's Living Legacy returns! On the eve of Albion Online's sixth anniversary, statues of seasons past have awakened and can be found throughout the world. As these statues are tributes to conquerors, they are hostile and will employ a wide range of weapons and magic. They can also drop unique, limited rewards when defeated (details below).

To ensure the same variety of enemies on Albion East and Albion West, the statues from Albion West will appear on both servers. In addition to the enemy statues from the fifth anniversary event in 2022, three new statues will appear:

Hello Adventurers,

This was quite an intense weekend. A weekend that, unfortunately, was nowhere near as smooth as anyone would have hoped and that fell short of the frictionless experience we want to deliver for our players.

The DDoS Situation
Let’s start with the most obvious thing: the ongoing DDoS attacks. Throughout the weekend, we saw a number of DDoS attacks against several parts of our infrastructure. The good news is that we, in cooperation with our server host, could react quickly each time and managed to stop individual attacks. The bad news is that, since the attacker is extremely dedicated and creative in their efforts, it is likely to take some more time to fully prevent them from having any impact on Albion Online’s systems. We and our server host are working tirelessly on proper solutions for healing the frustrating situation. We are committed to overcoming this problem as soon as we can.
However, we are still in for a bit of a b... Read more

Fellow Adventurers,

For this update, we are not coming to you with new numbers, but instead a general update and some context.

As you may have noticed, the number of bots found in the game is, at least for now, on a significantly lower level than it was in the majority of the past few weeks. That’s good. We’re seeing it too.
That means that a combination of our efforts has yielded tangible results. We have gotten a large number of bot accounts out of the game, and found ways to make it harder for them to get new accounts back up and running.
You are seeing the results, we are seeing the results - the person(s) running the bot farms are also seeing the results. And while you, adventurers, and us are very happy about the results, the people running their bot business are not. Very much so, apparently.

The server instabilities that we have suffered in the past 1 ½ days were results of large scale DDoS attacks against our server infrastructure. Th... Read more
