ArcheAge Updating to Secrets of Ayanad
Adventurers,
ArcheAge is updating to Secrets of Ayanad (Version 1.2 Build 5.0)! The patch notes can be found below.
SECRETS OF AYANAD
• The new zone of Diamond Shores is now available! Far across the Arcadian Sea, and to the west of the existing Auroria zones, this highly contested region benefits from unique access to the Ayanad Library, a variety of conveniences, and multiple climates.
○ For North America and Europe, Diamond Shores is a contested zone that cycles through the war and peace stages. Honor can be earned in Diamond Shores during war. ○ Areas around the Library and the hubs outside are protected similarly to Nui statues.
○ For more details on Diamond Shores, see the Secrets of Ayanad Spotlight: Diamond Shores article.

• The ruins of the Ayanad Library have been discovered and opened to adventurers. The Ayanad Library is a massive construction unlike any other seen in Erenor, consisting of three floors with dozens of rooms as well as boss and ring-event fights. Each level comes in three open instances that anyone can enter and leave at will, regardless of faction or group status.
○ The interior of the Library is a no-PvP area.
