You can discuss the update as usual HERE in the discussion thread.
The plan is to release this update on the 30th of July 2018. We will start with the update procedure early in the morning between 9:00 AM CEST and 11:00 AM CEST. The downtime is expected to be around 30 minutes long. Of course, food will be frozen during that longer downtime. But as always, do not take the aforementioned times as guaranteed, be aware of possible delays due to unforeseen circumstances.

there was a slight miscommunication in regards to the availability of the announced Shapeshifter Baron Set.
Yes, it will be available in the monthly questline, though not from the next month (August) on, but rather towards the end of this year. So this set will be obtainable at first in the Shapeshifter Charm-Shop!
We got something prepared for you though. Something which should make up for the aforementioned absence of the Shapeshifter baron set in the royal questline:
We are going to give you the chance to obtain the Ivory Queen Set again, during the course of the next months in their respective royal questline. To avoid any missunderstandings: this means that you will be able to collect certain parts of the whole set with each passing month's royal questline (just as an example: 3 pieces in August, 3 pieces in September, etc.). For those of you, who are not familiar with this set yet, we got all the information you need, as follows:
The Ivory Queen Set - Artifacts of the Ivory Queen :
| Ivory armor (Armor) | +24% later army detection |
| Ivory sword (Weapon) | -29% enemy wall protection |
