After a few days of downtime, most of the site is back-up again. A quote from discord explaining the situation:

Dear community:

we are sorry for the inconveniences with the webserver in the last couple of days. And especially sorry for not keeping you properly up to date, truth is, we had hopes of it being recovered.

Sadly, something as trivial as a RAM upgrade on a server cascaded into our provider (ServerHub) breaking our entire filesystem.

We are now in the process of moving to an ever better webserver. The good news are, @Aahz , had created a back-up a few days ago into his network. He saved us again, from something that could have been absolutely tragic and horribly timed. While it's mostly complete and recent, we still have a lot of pieces to put together, on our new host, and some things we have to create from scratch.

This sadly means we have to push our beta/trailer schedule one week further until we get the new site running, which will be fairly soon.


Most of the site is recovered now, except our download/launcher infrastructure, which we are working on to rebuild.

We're on a new (better) host now as well! Feel free to provide feedback on how things are running.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Things are running lightning fast on my end, the new provider seems like a big upgrade compared to the past ones.
I'm glad the situation was solved so rapidly and efficiently, really big thumbs up to the team and Aahz's foresight.

This all sounds great! Do you guys have any idea when the launcher download will be up again? I have patch 1.14d so the launcher is the only way I can play.

A ram upgrade eh, did you guys try to download more ram?

haha just kiddinig.

I'm glad to see the server is back, I was lost without the guides on my characters and that had me thinking, is there any way to possibly have an offline version available in case this issue occurs again?

Since the website was down I was using Google cached versions which you can use on any site if they are down and want to see a specific page, you just have to be more specific in Google searching it so you can get the page you want.
