Welcome to the Onslaught

"This day you become knights!" he laughed fiercely, pointing with his dripping sword towards the hillmen horses, herded nearby. "Mount and follow me to hell! " - “Black Colossus”, Robert E. Howard, 1933

A classic tale brought to life, you’re invited to experience a slice of Hyborian lore: introducing Kuthchemes Temple Onslaught, a brand-new group scenario inspired by the original “Black Colossus” story by Robert E. Howard!

We’re looking for able-bodied heroes to band together and test this new mode on TestLive this Friday, April 3 2020 from 4PM - 8PM Eastern Time USA.

No signups, no invites - just fire up the test client to join! Read on to learn how to participate:

First Time?

If this is the first time you’ve attempted to connect to TestLive, don’t fret – the process is simple!

First, download the TestLive “Local Config” file below. If you are taken to a page that looks like raw HTML code, simply right-click anywhere on that page and then “Save As”. Then save the physical file to your PC:

TestLive Local Config

Installation

  1. EITHER:

    • COPY your Age of Conan folder, duplicating the client, OR

    • RENAME your current LocalConfig.xml file in your existing Age of Conan folder to something else easy to remember

  2. Download and save the LocalConfig.xml file included in the above link

  3. Move the .xml file to the Age of Conan folder (same folder where AgeOfConan.exe is)

  4. Run the game

If done correctly, you should see a “Welcome to TestLive” message in green at the top of your launcher.

What to Expect

Once the server opens up on Friday, simply log in with your usual account name and password.

You’ll need to make a new character on TestLive and play through the beach area. Not too long after, you’ll encounter two NPCs; “Fate” and “Raidmaster”. These two NPCs can boost your character’s level and gear so you can play Onslaught. Remember, Onslaught is a group mode! Going in by yourself will assure your death.

More info on Onslaught itself to come! Looking forward to seeing you and hearing your feedback!!
