| Captain's Log 29: Brief update & PTR Incoming! Posted: 15 May 2019 04:54 PM PDT  Ahoy Pathfinders!Today's log will just be a brief update on our current status with our upcoming Mega patch touching on where we are! May Mega Update The team are currently working on wrapping up the patch for internal review and we expect it to enter our QA process later today. Following that, we'll be hitting it hard and barring any fires, we should be in a good state to get the update released onto our new Public Test Realm soon. This means that we're currently planning for the Public Test Realm to be available around the end of next week. As we get closer to the date, we'll be able to provide you with a more specific timeline. So far it's been smooth sailing, and we're on track for our end of the month release date.For those who have been away at sea, in our last Captain's Log, we covered our most recent Developer Livestream, as well as spoke about the content that's coming in the latest update. If you've not had a chance to watch the stream, you can do so here for some in-game footage of what's to come: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/420002173 But for those just after the nitty-gritty details of the patch, here's what you can expect:
