The Queen update arrives on [b]January 20, 2020[/b]. With this update, the [b]Outlands [/b]will be completely reworked, and with very few exceptions, [b]all territories and siege camps in the Royal Continent will be removed[/b]. We have put a number of measures in place to assist with this transition, but as there is the potential for item loss, please read the following changes carefully.
[h1]Migrating Players and Items[/h1]
[b]1. Players:[/b]
[list] [*]Players in the [b]Outlands [/b]will be moved to the city with the portal closest to them. Even though the Caerleon portals will no longer exist, for this transfer, Caerleon is included among these cities.[/*] [*]Players in [b]affected zones in the Royal continent[/b] (i.e. those that had [b]territories or siege camps[/b]) will be moved to the nearest zone entrance.[/*][/list]
[b]2. Banks and Battlevaults:[/b]
[list] [*]All personal items in [b]banks and battlevaults[/b] in the Outlands, or in a removed Royal Territory or Siege Camp, will be [b]moved to the Royal City that is closest or has the closest portal[/b].[/*] [*][b]Guild banks in territories[/b] will be moved to the owning guild's [b]Guild Island Bank[/b].[/*] [*]Territory bank [b]tabs [/b](and their corresponding access rights) will be copied to the Guild Island Bank.[/*] [*]If the guild doesn't own a Guild Island, [b]the items will be destroyed[/b].[/*][/list]
[b]3. Islands:[/b]
[list] [*]Personal and guild islands [b]will be movable[/b] during the month following the Queen update. This is currently slated for January 20 10:01 UTC to February 20 10:00 UTC.[/*] [*]Only islands created prior to the launch of the Queen update are eligible to be moved.[/*] [*]Islands moved during the last island move are still eligible to be moved once more after the Queen update.[/*][/list]
[b]4. Items that will NOT be moved:[/b]
[list] [*]Items currently for sale or in the completed tab of [b]Marketplaces in Guild Home Territories [/b]will [b]not[/b] be moved. This means that any items in Marketplaces in the Outlands when Queen goes live [b]will be lost[/b].[/*] [*]Contents of placeable chests, as well as all placed furniture items, [b]will not be moved[/b] and will be destroyed.[/*] [*][b]Farmable items left in territories[/b] will be destroyed.[/*] [*][b]Buildings left in territories[/b], including farms and pastures, will be destroyed.[/*][/list]

[h1]Amnesty for Low Reputations[/h1]
With the changes to the Outlands, and particularly the destruction of the Caerleon Realmgate, movement restrictions due to reputation will be mitigated as follows:
[list] [*]Players below -15000 reputation [b]will have their reputation adjusted to -15000[/b] to allow movement within [b]yellow and red zones[/b].[/*] [*]However, as Caerleon will no longer have a Realmgate to the Outlands, if a Dreaded player enters Caerleon (after re-lowering their reputation in a neighboring red zone), their [b]only options[/b] are to wait for their reputation to increase or fast travel to another city.[/*][/list]
