6/12 - Test Server Wipe
The Lineage test server is scheduled to be ‘wiped’ twice on Wednesday, June 12, in order to verify our backup processes and prepare for upcoming testing. This will clear the entire character database for the test server ONLY. Here is how the process will work:

If you actively test on the test server, please log in after 7 p.m. CST on Tuesday, June 11, and take note of your character inventory and level.

The first wipe of the test server will occur at 10 a.m. CST on Wednesday, June 12.

In order to test our restore process, we will restore the test server immediately after it has been wiped.

As available, testers should log into the test server after 12 noon CST on Wednesday, June 12, and confirm that their inventories and levels approximately match those of the prior evening (depending on playtime, this may vary). If there is a great difference in information, please use the Support section of the website to report this as a bug, or report it to the Lineage Testing message board.

The second wipe will start at 3 p.m. CST on Wednesday, June 12. The server should be back up around 4 p.m. CST.

The 3 p.m. wipe will not be followed by a restore and the test server will remain clean, so that we may appropriately test changes to the new player zones and prepare for Episode 11 testing.

Please note that the test server will be taken down and wiped more frequently in the future, in order to maintain a suitable test environment. News of planned wipes will be posted to the News section before they occur.

Well...as the server name states 'test server' means it's there for players to test new things and give feed backs / report bugs (not sure have many actually reported the bugs). Some people think it's going to be made into a live server just because many people have invested lots (trading dep/ken stuffs for test) into test server...and the time to lvl the chars..well, too bad such things are meant to happen...and I feel sorry for the short-live glory of turning 50 for some individuals. --

..... You knew wipe would come sooner or later.
Why trade for items that will be deleted with items that will stay?

In the words of Petey Pablo, "I Told Y'all!"
Don't waste your time on the Test Server next time. Go to Depardieu or Ken Rauhel. If you can't live with the real drops, then you weren't cut-out for Lineage.

Could of sworn they told us awhile ago that they wernt going to do any more rollbacks or wipes...
"As available, testers should log into the test server after 12 noon CST on Wednesday, June 12, and confirm that their inventories and levels >>>approximately<<< match those of the prior evening." Sweet mother of god, approximately? This restor system isnt going to be used on the main servers is it? APPROXIMATELY? how bout we send you a check with approximately 15$ on it? If its alil short youll let it slide right? If you can do it, why cant we?
Also... how exactly do you maintain a normal test enviroment when your server has increased drops, and all your characters will be low-mid level. Oh never mind I just answered my own question didnt I. I forgot that you guys like to cator to the low levels and totally forsake your vets sometimes...

Forsake your vets sometimes? Try all the time. Seeing how all the vets from beta/early Dep play test, this is really dumb. They just don't want to make, NC-Austin is so high strung on this tulba rulsa crappy game or whatever and pay no heed to their Lineage Customers. All I have to say is that Lin 2 better be controlled by NC-Korea or it will end up dead like Lin1 in North America. NC-Austin will run it into the ground. I'm openly offer my services to gm in Lin 2 and work hard for what the US Market really wants in Lin, get rid of LB, his own company fired his dumb A%*. Sorry Amer, just found out that I got a B- minus on my mid term paper and I spent weeks researching it and did some great work, I hate college teachers, they suck as scoring papers. The 5 people I had proof read it loved my paper, two were former teachers of mine.

my 48 elf!!!!!!!
Its sorta funny that it is wiping so soon.......too bad :(
Too all the people who think test server sucks, hey its a fun server......isnt that what we all want outta the game anyway? to have fun? Im sure everyone knew it was going to wipe, but why not have a good time and be crazy strong and rich? Hmmm......the best part of lineage is blowing up items and fighting people and getting good drops so why wouldnt you want all of that? on test server drops are nice and everyone is rich enough to blow items everyday and fight all the time..
Oh...and people who say its a newbie server just because any new player can get strong in a matter of a few days, you should go see who plays test server. Alot of the old school players are on test...they've probably been playing lineage before you even heard of it.

test is very fun, 5 months of playing getting wiped and ill be back on test seconds after the wipe to do it allll over again. no regrets, its fun. on live servers, you slave for hours to make what test players can get in 2-3 orc fighters.... its also not as crowded, not 600 players online at once. anyways, i hope people think test sucks & is for newbies, less people on test means more drops for me 8 )
