There will be a maintenance and update/patch on Thursday, probably quite early but I will post more accurate times when I know them.
The update will address the problem with damage absorb. All armor and weapons with the damage absorb stat have been reworked and the alternate card slot item will be removed.
Fixes to the bosses in Circus hard mode.
Changes to the loot in Vortex (this will happen every patch to keep things interesting).
Some language changes that should hopefully fix the disconnects some people receive when porting or entering a dungeon.
Daily quests in the new maps will have their levels adjusted so they can still be taken once you pass level 72.
Other less important stuff that I can't think of right now xD
I will hopefully be able to bring back the flag match and channel 2 but need to make some tests whilst the server is down before I can tell if it will work.
The server will be down for a few hours at most.
