Cautious Optimism

We are thrilled to bring you all these major updates, but are also fully aware of the bugs that may accompany them. We have done a fair amount of testing in-house, but we can never fully simulate what hundreds of real players will encounter. Please be patient and use the Bug Reporter in the settings menu to let us know of any problems you may encounter. Happy Raiding! - the Iron 27 Team
