MAINTENANCE COMPLETE: The servers are back up and you should be able to log back into the worlds. Compensation for the maintenance extension has also been sent via GM message. (UPDATE: Addition of the x4 EXP Tome and x8 EXP Tome items has been postponed for further improvement. These items will be introduced in a future patch. Also, Blessed Gem recipes can be purchased from Item Merchant NPCs, not Accessory Merchant NPCs as previously announced.)
