A new venue has been discovered: Outcrops of glowing crystals have begun to form among once-tranquil waters. Though the energies of these crystals have altered the wildlife and explorers within, dragons still flock to the site to harvest the gems for their hoards. Test your skills in Crystal Pools.

New Wildlife to Befriend
What dragon wouldn't want the friendship of a gem-bedecked companion? This new location has revealed a plethora of new familiars to befriend and care for.
A Hoard of Loot
The Crystal Pools introduces a variety of new items for your dragons to consume, barter or hoard. Finding each of these treasures can be a challenge.
Upcoming Downtime - Sunday, September 27
On Sunday, September 27 at 06:00 server time, we will be performing backend optimizations to align with the goals we outlined in our last Words on the Wind post. These changes are significant enough that we would like to place the site into maintenance mode in order to implement them smoothly.
These changes are in an effort to address periodic pockets of site unresponsiveness that some of our players have been experiencing in the last few months. We anticipate that the downtime will be about two hours (with a chance to go longer than that), so we wanted to make sure that everyone was notified and can plan ahead!
Automatic Alert Cleaner Deployment - Saturday, October 10
On Saturday, October 10, we will be deploying and enabling our alert cleaning process. This process (also outline in our last Words on the Wind post) will run each night and perform the following:
- Alerts that have been read and are older than 30 days will be automatically cleared each day.
- Alerts that have been unread and are older than 60 days will be automatically cleared each day.
We wanted to inform the community far enough ahead of time to allow players to gather and save bookmarks for threads that they would like to keep archived. As some of you may have noticed, we made an update last month that included forum thread names in the site's title bar, so the process of saving meaningful browser bookmarks should be much, much easier.
We will make a final reminder in the site status box as the deployment approaches. Thank you, and enjoy the last day of the Starfall Celebration!
