Hello everyone! Today we are happy to announce that on Sunday, July 3rd @ 2:00 PM EDT / 5:00 AM AEST / 7:00 PM BST we will be resetting the Outlands gamemode! Keyall
Factions: Onyx Reset
Greetings everyone, the upcoming season of Factions Onyx is here!
Realm Information
The next Onyx map will release on Sunday July 3rd @ 3:00 PM EDT / 6:00 AM AEST / 8:00 PM BST.
The map will last 7 days which means there will only be 1 payout that will be issued at the end of the map on Saturday 9th July @ 5PM EDT.
Keyall
After the release of Onyx today, we ran into major issues that caused multiple crashes, in which some important player data was unfortunately lost. This lost data made it unfeasible for the reset to continue as planned. After taking the server down, we've since fixed the issue and are looking to re-release the realm.
30 minutes after the reset takes place at the new time shown above, there will be a key-all on Onyx where everyone online at the time will receive a crate key. This is to apologize for the disruption and delay - we understand that this can be frustrating and appreciate your patience and support.

The sun is shining and the temperature is ramping up, so it's time to dig out your bathing suit and sunglasses, and head on down to the beach! To celebrate the summer season arriving at last, we have released the limited-time Summer Dungeon on Factions!
The limited-time Summer Dungeon will be available all summer from now until September 18th so raid one while you can! You can find the Summer Credit Bundle in the Dungeon section on shop.thearchon.net. Find out more about the Summer Dungeon below:

Additional Information
Last but not least, here is some miscellaneous information:
- We will be running a Mining, Woodcutting, and Fishing economy alongside Mycelium (Silverfish).
- The Faction size has been increased from 5 players to 7.
- We will be increasing the number of faction bans needed for a strike from 2 to 3 due to the Faction size increase.
- Envoy rewards are being buffed, this makes the Supply Drops more worth grabbing!
- We are revamping our /ArchonPass to make the challenges more diverse with better rewards.
Thank you everyone for another amazing map, see you all at 3:00 PM EDT on Sunday for the Onyx reset!
