WAAAGH!!!

Welcome to the first stage of the 1.3 Public Test! It's an exciting time for WAR and this patch is massive. We're going to need your help more than ever to dive into every nook and cranny and leave no rock unturned as we get 1.3 ship-shape and ready for prime time!

This first segment will focus on the Combat & Careers changes we have in store, while some careers are impacted more than other there are a number of changes that impact everyone and its very important we get your experience from playing and testing them in a live environment with other players.

In addition to the C&C changes the mechanic for gathering resources and unlocking the Tomb Kings zones will also be in place, while we're not taking focus feedback on it at this time we'll have a bug forum available and encourage you to discuss your experiences in the General Feedback forum until its time to actually test it out.

Please note that The Land of the Dead is not currently available and while you can unlock it you won't be able to travel there during this segment. We know many of you are excited to check out all of the new content and it will come soon enough, for now enjoy part one and we can't wait to work with you and read your feedback!
