July 12th Public Test Information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After a weekend of hard work preparations for tomorrow's public test are nearly complete! Below we have included information about how the test will be conducted which should help to answer many of your questions. We're currently still working on ironing a few things out, so you will notice that a specific start time was not included. Once we know what it is I will update this post and indicate this in the thread title.
经过一个周末的努力工作, 明天的公测终于快要准备好了! 下面是一个关于公测的信息, 应该可以回答到你们的一些问题. 我们还在解决一些问题, 所以具体时间还没有定好. 我会即时通知大家的.
Time
Monday, July 12th at To Be Announced
时间
7月12号, 星期一, 时间未定
Location
Because the team had higher priorities than setting up a special teleportation system simply for this event, all players will start at the north side of the Aeldreth safe zone. This will allow for players to setup their gear in safety and socialize in this general area without fearing harassment, but also allows those who would like to engage in PvP to do so by crossing the safezone boundary.
地点
由于传送系统还不是我们的工作要点, 所有玩家会在Aeldreth安全区的背面进入游戏. 这样子玩家可以安全地准备装备. 同时喜欢PvP的可以走出安全区.
Training
All new characters are automatically set to level ten and given 50 trains in each skill line they have available to them at this level (depending on base class). As far as powers, any power that the class has available to it will be set to one train, unless the power is specifically granted at a higher level for that class. It is also worth noting that no characters will be promoted from their base class, this test is specifically for testing base class powers and ensuring that everything is in order up until that point.
技能
所有的角色都会设定在10级, 而且会在每个技能上拥有50点技能. (要看基础职业) 能力方面, 所有可用的能力都会有1点.
Gear and Items
A vault keeper will be placed at the spawn point where players may access their vault. When the vault is opened it will automatically be filled with 50% and 75% items for the player to use on his/her characters. This will be within the safezone so that there is no need to fear being killed while equipping your character.
一个仓库管理员会在Spawn Point, 仓库里会有50% 和75%的道具. 仓库会在安全区里. 不用担心拿装备的时候会被杀.
Concoction potions will not be included in this test event for balance reasons; at this level the defense gain from the potion far outstrips any effective attack rating gain, particularly because everyone has a fixed skill percentage.
药水不会在这次公测里.
Bug Reporting
Reporting any bugs or glitches that you encounter is the central focus of this event, and we ask that you do so in the Bug Reporting forum. This will greatly assist the team and help us make the next full public preview a more enjoyable experience!

Acknowledgements
The team has worked tirelessly this weekend to prepare tomorrow's test, and we would like to acknowledge the efforts of all who sacrificed their weekend for the project. RichV has put in more than 80 hours in preparation for this event (not all over the weekend, he did sleep some). Eighty also worked hard preparing the vault system for use.
Otlichno, Claymore, and Murray all played their parts as well and without them this wouldn't have been possible. The testing team (as well as many design team members) also played a key role, helping us to test new fixes rapidly and get things ready on time.
