Different Shards

Here is my second question of the day, There are so many Shards to choose from. I keep hearing about Siege Perilous and Origion Shard, what is so special with these shards? are there any other special Shards other then these two?

Re: Different Shards

Siege Perilous and Mugen are modified Felucca ruleset shards, designed for veteran players. They have some strict rules:

1. Only one character per shard
2. Non-consensual PvP is permitted in all areas.
3. NPC's will not train you in any skill.
4. Prices to purchase from NPC's are much higher than production shards, and NPC's will not buy gems, items, armor or weapons from players.
5. Skill gain is different than production shards: much harder.
6. There are few blessed items on Siege or Mugen. You can individually bless one item. Plain spellbooks of all types are blessed, but spellbooks with properties are NOT blessed.


Origin is a production shard. The only difference between Origin and other production shards is in the area of publishes; Origin receives publishes after the Test Center has been published, but before other production shards are published. This is an extra layer of protection against bugs and exploits.
