7th Annual Easter Events

We’re excited to announce our 7th Annual Easter celebration in-game, packed with festive activities and rewards for everyone to enjoy.

Event Highlights

• 🥚 Egg Hunt: Eggs can be found throughout Britannia and contain Fabled Carrots or other surprises, redeemable at the Easter Vendor.
• 👹 Easter Paragon Monsters: These may randomly spawn in place of normal monsters, offering bonus chances to earn carrots and special items.
• 🥕 Previous years’ Easter Carrots can continue to be used in all Easter events going forward.
• ✨ A few new and rare drops have also been added for this year’s Easter activities.
• 🏦 Note: The Easter Vendor is on duty at Britannia’s bank.

Additional Features

• 🐇 Killing regular rabbits may trigger a Vorpal Bunny spawn, which rewards additional carrots and loot.
• 🧩 Egg Riddles remain updated with quality-of-life improvements:
  • You can request a Hint to help solve a riddle.
  • A Skip option lets you bypass a riddle once per egg.
• 🥚 New for 2026: A new Golden Egg Hunt quest is now live. Speak to Tails near Britain Bank to begin collecting stolen golden eggs from greater dragons in Destard, Exploding Wells, or Easter puzzle chests, and earn a magical Easter wand when the quest is complete.

ℹ️ Ongoing Updates

We’ll continue adding more items and activities as time allows, so keep an eye out for additions during the event.

Event Dates for 2026

• 📅 Event begins: April 2, 2026 at 9:00 AM
• 📅 Event ends: April 28, 2026 at 9:00 AM

We hope you have time to log in, participate, and enjoy the festivities. See you there!

Tails, the Easter Bunny’s helper, is offering a special Easter quest.

He can be found near Britain Bank. He needs your help to recover the magical golden eggs that were stolen by a mischievous pixie and given to the greater dragons in Destard.

Slay the dragons, retrieve the eggs, and deliver them to the Easter Bunny’s helpers to restore balance to the Easter celebrations. Once you have delivered all the eggs, return to Tails to claim your reward, a magical Easter wand! The magic wand can change the color of any rabbit in the world.

Alternatively, if you prefer not to fight dragons, you can find the golden eggs by blowing open wells during the Exploding Wells event and opening unique Easter puzzle chests. However, you still need to have the quest active!

New Changes

• All faction pillar locations now have chests inside each faction’s base. Players can store items in these chests to use in the events.
• Paragon monster gold now has a cap of 6,000. Wearing the Fortune Favor amulet increases the cap to 8,000.

Changes

• Added training weapons to the game
• Fixed a big with unwavering stance that would allow infinite stat gains
• Modified the chance of armor pieces to be hit so the chest is hit slightly less
• Updated herding to be a passive skill
• Added secondary skill bonuses for melee skills Macing and Fencing
• Added PvE Bonuses to the Arms Lore skill to make it more useful overall
• Fixed an issue with players not receiving items from the Black Goods Vendor.
• The item fixer now repairs broken exploding barrels.
• Loot for the Ancient Reaper Boss has been updated.
• The Moonglow Pirate Invasion event has been completely refreshed! It now features new visual effects, catapults, new mobs, and improved loot.
• Added a second Blackgoods vendor in Bucc's.
• Murderers can now use Luke the Wizard in Despise.
• Thieves can now steal from monsters in the spider cave near Wind, and Kolthi the Weaver (spider miniboss) has now relocated here.
• Clockwork golems can now be stabled.
• Horned Pack Beetles have been changed to require 2 control slots.
• The Moonglow Pirate Invasion event has been refreshed! It now includes catapults that players can use to attack the invaders. The pirates now bring with them special rock giants that can only be killed from catapult rocks!
• Increased PvE stealing drop rates for thief coins.
• Arms Lore Identification Fix : Fixed an issue where heavily repaired items would incorrectly display as "brand new" when inspected. The skill now correctly accounts for an item's repair history and maximum durability loss.
• Bounty Hunters and Murderers are now equally restricted from all forms of teleportation for 5 minutes after engaging in combat with each other. The Bounty Hunters' bola has been nerfed and no longer grants an increased chance.
• Tommy's Lost Apron Quest (young players) fixed: Rewarded horses can now be stabled.
• Bear Hunter Quest (young players) adjusted to 10 black and 10 brown bears.
• Drop rate of skull tokens in the new player dungeons increased.

We continue to work on the elusive crash bug that is keeping us offline and will update here with more information when we have it. Thank you for your patience.

UPDATE: We've rolled back (per https://shardsofbritannia.com/news/server-update-march-23-2026) and the server is back online!

Hey everyone,

We've rolled the server back to its state from Thursday, March 19th (9 AM UTC restart) as a precaution. We identified some recent changes that may have been causing stability issues, and we want to make sure everything is running smoothly for you.

What this means:

• The server has been restored to the last confirmed stable version from Thursday morning
• This includes character data and world saves — any progress made after Thursday's 9 AM UTC restart will unfortunately be lost
• Recent code changes have been temporarily removed and will be re-introduced gradually as we verify each one

We know losing progress is frustrating, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. This was a necessary step to ensure server stability and protect the game experience for everyone going forward.

We'll keep you posted as updates are re-deployed over the coming days.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

The login server is offline at this time. It should be restored early US EST all going well, and we have notified the responsible parties. Sorry for the inconvenience.

A rune tome has been added to the donation vendor for 1000 donation points. It works the same way as a normal runebook (not sacred) but has 40 slots and 25 charges.

Hi all,

Shards of Britannia will soon be moving to its own login server. In order to prepare for this, we need you to do a few things!

Please read https://wiki.shardsofbritannia.com/en/Updates/LoginServer/FAQ

All your questions and answers should be there in the wiki, however if anything doesn't make sense, feel free to ask in Discord or send us a note via the contact form.

Just a reminder, please /verify your accounts as soon as you can! While there will be a process if you miss the /verify boat, it will be manual and therefore take time. Doing this step ensures a seamless transition for you.

The server will remain offline for up to 2 hours at the next shutdown. We will advise as soon as it is back online.

Thank you for your patience.

Hi all,

New servers have been provisioned and built, so we'll be migrating to them at 9am UTC today (usual server downtime.) This means we'll be offline for up to 4 hours while this takes place.

Apologies for the late notice, however we need to progress this ASAP to avoid a billing event for the old servers and have them decommissioned in time. Keep an eye on #news for updates, and thank you as always for your patience!

Hi all,

Our server infrastructure is some 5 years old now and is nearing end of life. We have been preparing in the background for this and will be migrating to new servers at some point in the next few days.

While we don't have an immediate timeframe as we are waiting for provisioning of the new hardware, we currently expect this to be done around 3am UTC on Saturday morning 31st January (10pm US EST Friday 30th January) assuming there are no delays in provisioning.

We appreciate the timing is not perfect, and expect to be offline for a few hours while this happens. However it needs to happen and relies on availability of team members to do this.

We're giving you some advance notice in case you want to make other plans, and will confirm the date and time as soon as we have the new hardware provisioned.

Thank you for your patience, and watch out for the next announcement!

The Exploding Wells event has had some updates: new loot has been added to the puzzle chest and to the MOBs that spawn from the wells, plus a few other little surprises! Have fun!
