Albion East’s season will start at[b] 00:00 UTC[/b], and then at [b]11:00 UTC[/b] Albion West’s will kick off. Both seasons run concurrently, ending on 11 September, and as before, each server’s season is open to any character on that server - so you can participate in both simultaneously should you wish. Tremendous prizes are on offer to guilds who rank highly enough, like the [b]Juggernaut, Conqueror Avatars, [/b]and[b] Fame buffs[/b]. And as with last season, the top three guilds will receive special [b]Direwolf Skins[/b].

[b]Castle and Castle Outpost treasures[/b] now spawn 30 minutes earlier on Albion East. Meanwhile, the Crystal League and Crystal Arena will use the [b]Cross Map[/b] this season, and Rank Points have been adjusted to make progression through the ranks flow more smoothly. For the complete schedule and a detailed rundown of the season changes, see this [url=https://forum.albiononline.com/index.php/Thread/181982][b]forum post[/b][/url].
