Issue 14 Live!
Issue 14: Architect has been released to the Live Servers. Go forth, create your own stories, or conquer your fellow players' custom critters! Gotta collect 'em all!
Additional tidbits about Issue 14:
- Active accounts will no longer have items placed on consignment deleted after 60 days of inactivity.
- Taskforce Random Recipe Roll has been combined with Trial Random Recipe Roll to form the Random Rare Recipe Roll at Merit Vendors.

Issue 14 Open Beta
Issue 14: Architect has officially[1] entered Open Beta phase! With the Mission Architect, this is one of the most widely anticipated issue releases in a long while, so fire up the Training Room and help the bug-finding process, fiddle with the mission creator, or make your very own personal archnemesis for use in the mission creator.
