Update:

Because we’ve made corrections to the item enchantments and their level requirements, it could happen that armor that you were previously able to carry, will now display as red (not available to use). This is because you might no longer be at the appropriate level for the item.

This correction was necessary and will offer a better, long-term understanding regarding enchanted items. The affected armor will not at all be lost and can be used again normally once you reach the appropriate level.

We apologize for any inconvenience that this might cause.

Hello again, here is another update:


PvP Arena Protection:
To prevent a hail of spell and sword hits, you will now receive a short protection spell in order to allow you to get your bearings. However, the protection goes away if the following is done:

1. If you’re in the arena for longer than 15 seconds.
2. If you drink a drink (Healing, Mana, Rage) or use a blessing.
3. If you start an attack on another player in the arena
