Late Note: Fixed an issue that caused the default size of each homestead decoration in the Meditative Garden Homestead Package to be incorrect. Each decoration's default size has increased. Players will need to remove and replace or resize their decorations if they have already placed them in their homestead.

Thank you for sharing this feedback. I want to let you know that on November 5 we'll be increasing the default size of all decorations in the Meditative Garden Homestead Package. After the November 5 game update is live, you'll need to resize or delete and replace any of these decorations that you had in your homestead.

Hey, everyone! We’ve noticed some questions about our Extra Life stretch goal, so here’s a quick rundown to help clear things up. You'll receive two Extra Life Victory Caches when you complete the Extra Life Donor Goal for 2024. This achievement has two parts: All tiers of the Extra Life Community Goal: $105,000 in direct donations on our Extra Life team page. This is a community-wide goal, so you don’t need to link your game account to that page. Extra Life Donor: Purchase any Extra Life item in the gem store. Once both of those are completed, return to Lion's Arch and you'll receive your reward. Thank you for helping us Change Kids' Health again in 2024 with Extra Life!

Yup! 😄

This is fixed!

Bug Fix: Fixed an issue that prevented the Mad King Says Halloween event from starting on its normal schedule in Lion's Arch.

Update! We found the issue and it's a pretty quick fix, so we're testing it and preparing to get it live as soon as we can. Mad King Thorn will be yelling commands at you in LA before you know it.

Do you really want a surprise gift from something this closely related to the Mad King? That would not end well for anyone.
