Healing Testing
To facilitate testing of the 3.1 healing system, in front of the Empaths' Guild in Crossing there is "a hurty thing" and a GameMaster named Testone. The hurty thing can be used on Testone to generate wounds for testing the healing systems. Additionally, shock tester dials are available for sale for 1 kronar, which allow an Empath to set or clear their shock if they become shocked during the course of testing.
Notes
Experience and items gained or lost in the Test instance have no effect on your character in the live game.
Characters are copied from the Prime instance the first time they are logged into the test server. Occasionally the test server will be completely reset, typically when adding a major system, at which point logging in will copy the character from the Prime server again. A GameMaster can manually copy characters over for various reasons if asked, although this is usually only done for characters from the Platinum and Fallen instances since those characters otherwise have no way of being copied over.
