Members now get a three day head start on the brand new story line and main content in the Issue, while the rest of the new stuff, general updates and fixes will be available for everyone.
In this update you will play through a new, deep and revealing story within Egypt, learn how to use the vicious Whip Auxiliary Weapon, experience many PvP enhancements, get a new Veteran and Recruitment system and face off against a terrible Raid size Lair boss in a prison between worlds. While playing through the new story line in Issue #6 you can also acquire the all new Whip Auxiliary Weapon.
An all new Veteran system is introduced with this update. Every member now gets Veteran Points for each month they are or have been a member. Anyone recruiting a new player also gets Veteran Points equal to one month of membership. These points can buy unique rewards, such as cool new clothing or handy utility items.
