With much anticipation, Update 1.0.6 has been officially announced! Tomorrow the servers will be taken offline at 6:30AM EST, with the Oceanic servers to follow at 9:00AM EST for the update.

This is our biggest update yet! It's chock-full of exciting career changes and heralds the debut of the highly anticipated Black Guard and Knight of the Blazing Sun careers. If you've finished the Heavy Metal event and have opened your Heavy Metal Chest, then you will be able to play a Black Guard and Knight of the Blazing Sun when this patch goes live (before anyone else!). For those of you who did not complete the Heavy Metal event, don't fret! You, too, will be able to play these two new careers starting next week.

Because this is such a massive update, we've added the notes directly into our wiki with discussion regarding the update located in our forums. Part 1 focuses on Highlights, Combat and Careers. Part 2 completes Combat and Careers and finishes with General Changes and Bug Fixes, Items, RvR, and UI.
