While these regions will be claimable during the next Invasion Day (May 18), and will generate siphoned energy and spawn loot chests, they will not contribute season points to the current (sixth) GvG season. They will begin generating season points as normal at the beginning of Season 7. In conjunction with this expansion and the redistribution of Outlands portals, [b]Energy Manipulator NPCs[/b] have been added close to the Realmgate in each of the Royal Cities. For more on these changes and a list of portal/city connections for each region, click [url=https://albiononline.com/en/news/outland-expansion-incoming][b]here[/b][/url]. [h1]Portal Binding Reset[/h1] Players can now remove their [b]portal binding[/b] (i.e. the lock to a particular city's Outlands portal) once every 30 days. This allows some flexibility with portal locks, while ensuring it only occurs for important reasons (guild moves, major strategic changes, urgent access to a new territory, etc.). The option of switching city bindings by traveling across the Outlands to a different-colored portal remains in effect. [h1]Siege Camp Changes[/h1] With the release of this update, the connections for the Siege Camps in [b]No Respite[/b] and [b]Carpet of Bones[/b] will be switched from Caerleon to [b]Martlock[/b] and [b]Thetford[/b], respectively. The newly introduced Siege Camps in [b]Desecrated Sands[/b], [b]Torn Earth[/b] and [b]Badbury Bog[/b] will be connected to the remaining Royal Cities. This change should make it significantly easier to compete for control of the Royal Cities. [h1]Favorite Islands List[/h1] By popular demand, players can now set certain islands as [b]favorites in the Travel Planner UI[/b], making them easily accessible without searching. [h1]New Caerleon Marketplace Cluster[/h1] To reduce overcrowding, a [b]second Marketplace cluster[/b] has been added to Caerleon, accessed by walking directly south from within the Bank of Caerleon. [b]Both clusters give access to the same Marketplace, including all for-sale items, buy orders, sell orders, and purchased goods[/b], and can be used interchangeably.
