Test Instance

The Test instance is a DragonRealms server dedicated to testing. It is where new systems are released for beta testing and commentary by a select group of players, before being incorporated into the "live" servers (Prime, Platinum, and The Fallen).

Current Status

December 9, 2012

The Test Instance is currently open to all subscribers for final beta testing of DragonRealms 3.0, a major upgrade of many game systems.

Access

Access is normally available for Platinum Subscribers, Community Leaders, Mentors, and other players individually selected by the GameMasters.

Before major system upgrades, the test instance is typically opened up to all subscribers for final beta testing.

Notes

Experience and items gained or lost in the Test instance have no effect on your character in the live game.

Typically, character files will be copied over from the relevant instance into Test en masse, and may be recopied without notice as the GM's see fit and as testing circumstances warrant.

Special "cheat" commands and items are also usually available to assist players in testing, such as the Healme command, the hurty thing, etc.
