Migration Buffs Have Arrived!

Traveling to the Migration area now comes with an extra reward!

Once you’ve reached the current migration area, simply use !migration in Local Chat to claim your rewards:

+2,500 Marks
+5% Attack Damage Buff

The command will reward players who have successfully reached the active migration area, giving you an extra incentive to travel with the seasons.

This buff stacks, and remains active until you switch dinos, log out, die, or the server restarts.

We’re not finished yet! We’re already working on an additional migration buff that will be coming soon, so stay tuned for even more reasons to follow the migrations.

Happy migrating!

Sesonal Migrations Rollout

You will start seeing seasons and migration areas announced across the server.

These are part of a permanent four-season rotation system and are not the same as the staff-run testing events many of you are familiar with.

As these changes are introduced, please take a moment to review your creature’s profile. Some species have seasonal nesting and/or hunting restrictions or preferences, while others do not. Be sure you know what applies to your creature before heading out.

A reminder that your creature’s preferred habitat remains its primary nesting location. If your profile specifies a particular nesting season, you should establish your nest within your preferred habitat or POI first, then travel to the active migration zone for that season once your family is ready to move.

If your profile does not specify a nesting season, assume your species nests during Spring or Summer. Some profiles may be updated with specific requirements or preferences in the near future. Any profile updates will be announced when they are released.

Carnivores may initiate hunts at 80% hunger or below during Fall and 20% hunger or below during Winter. Spring and Summer follow the standard hunting rules unless otherwise specified by a creature’s profile.

Check out our new Seasons channel so you know at a glance what the current season is, where migrations are taking place, and any rule adjustments that may apply.

We are also still working on getting automated system and/or whisper messages in-game when the season changes. For now, please bear with us while we continue fine-tuning the system.

To help everyone adjust and to allow for tweaks, there will be a two-week grace period beginning today (6/11/26). During this time, staff will focus on education and guidance while players become familiar with the new expectations.

Good luck out there, and happy migrating!

More Creature Additions

Well… they’re finally here! After what felt like forever (but was actually a month), the bug preventing their release has finally been resolved, and both creatures are now available on the server.

New additions:
-Asylum’s Giraffe,
-Asylum’s Feline,

If you’ve been patiently waiting for either of these, your time has come. If you haven’t, congratulations; here’s more creatures anyway.

As always, profiles for newly added creatures take time to create, test, balance, and review. Please allow a minimum of two weeks before expecting profile releases.

For those planning to play them, remember that a new creature does not mean immune to consequences. Until profiles are released, both creatures fall under the default realism rules. Take some time to learn their abilities and play them responsibly while we gather feedback and evaluate their place within the roster.

May the survival odds be ever in your favor!

The Roster Continues to grow!

New additions:
-Primal Wrath’s Pachyrhinosaurus,
-Marvelous Mods’ Playable Wonambi,

A quick note regarding Wonambi (also known as a danger noodle, nope rope, or “absolutely not”): Wonambi is a critter. If you choose to play one, don’t be surprised if other players mistake you for an actual critter and treat you accordingly.

Primal Wrath’s Pachyrhinosaurus should follow the current Pachy profile. Adjustments and profile-specific tweaks may follow as we continue testing and evaluating the mod.

The profile for the Wonambi will be released as soon as possible; please allow at least two weeks minimum. Until then, it will fall under the server’s default realism rules. As always, profile creation, review, balancing, and testing take time, and we appreciate your patience while our team works through the growing roster.

In other news, the Deltadromeus, Ankylorhiza, and Ursa profiles have now been posted. As always, if you’re planning to play one, please familiarize yourself with their behaviors before setting off on your next adventure.

Happy surviving, and watch where you slither!
