<b>Travels in Dereth</b> - [http://actraveller.blogspot.com/ Link]
<b>Upcoming Web Site Data Center Migration - Monday, March 14th</b> [https://www.asheronscall.com/en/forums/showthread.php?65588-Upcoming-Web-Site-Data-Center-Migration-Monday-March-14th link]<br>
<br>Bellos The Mighty has published an excellent travel blog of Dereth that hearkens back to sites of AC's golden age (2000-2002) where he describes and documents his journeys through Dereth with great depth and sharp wit. I highly recommend checking it out.<br>
We are in the process of preparing to move Asheronscall.com to our new data center. What this means for you is that sometime around 9:00 AM Eastern (-5 GMT) on Monday, March 14th we will temporarily close the AC forums to posting, so that we can copy the data over to the new data center, do some checks on it, and then reopen the forums to posting. It's possible the web site may be unavailable for a while as this work is being done.

When the web site is reopened, you should simply see the ability to post in the forums, and that's that. However, some Internet Service Providers may take some time for the new DNS information to propagate, so if you run into an issue, you can clear your browser cache, or, if you are technically savvy enough to want to do it, open up a command prompt on your computer and type ipconfig /dnsflush. This would be something you could choose to do after we reopen the web site on Monday. Eventually, all ISPs will have updated their DNS information, so regardless of whether you take these steps, things should "just work".

<br>
Asheron's Call 1 and 2 game servers undergo a world restart every Tuesday morning starting around 8:00 AM Eastern (-5 GMT) to promote the general health of the game worlds. We have not typically announced these every week, but want to post this announcement to hopefully clear up the occasional confusion that players experience when they attempt to log in during our weekly restart. Thanks!
Make sure you head on over to Leaderboard and vote for AC.

Back at the turn of the century, you didn't have the equivalent of cable's infinite choices when it came to MMOs. No, you pretty much had the standard Big Three of network programming: Ultima Online, EverQuest, and Asheron's Call. With the subscription model firmly in place, most players had to choose their loyalty and choose it well.

Kintani: I’ve been working on the Lugian player race, which has proven to be an interesting challenge as this is the first player race where I’ve had to make new versions of all of the clothing and armor in game. I’m working to preserve the look of the armors, even though the Lugians have a much larger frame, so the looks people have come to know and love transition over onto the Lugians in the ways they’d expect.

Asheron's Call is Officially Dead Jan 31, 2017:-( link
It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the end of our support for Asheron's Call and Asheron’s Call 2, and will close both services on January 31st, 2017.

This decision did not come easy, and we know this is disappointing for many of you. This game is a labor of love, and it's not easy for us to bring it to an end.

We have had a phenomenally long run; one of the longest in the world of MMORPGs, and that in and of itself is a spectacular feat. We are proud of our legacy, and the entire Asheron's Call team has been honored to adventure with you for nearly twenty years. We thank you very much for being a part of it.

It’s been an amazing run. You’ve done Asheron Realaidain proud.

Between now and January 31st, 2017, the game will remain available to play, completely free, for any player currently with an account. New account creation will be disabled.
