All server merge updates coming to Lost Ark

While Lost Ark has been a huge success, like all MMORPGs, the initial excitement has died down a little, leading to some servers not being as well populated as you’d like. To combat this, Smilegate and Amazon have decided to merge some servers to keep populations high—crucial for all that end-game content goodness that needs large teams to shine. Here, you can find all the server merge updates coming to Lost Ark in September 2022.

Lost Ark server merge patch notes for September 2022

We’ve taken the following information from the Lost Ark’s official September 2022 patch notes. Take into consideration that server merges can be complex, so these may not roll out exactly as expected.

The first round of server merges will begin after the regularly scheduled downtime. To ensure players in every server are able to reliably participate in world-specific content (Field Bosses, Co-op Sailing Missions, Guild content, etc.) we plan to kick-off the first round of server merges immediately following the September 28 update.

Server merges will be straightforward for players who have a roster of characters on one of the servers (they’ll just need to log-in to the new server), but players who have a roster on both servers will have their rosters combined. If you’re one of these players, find our plan for combining your rosters below list of planned merges.

Roster merge FAQ

For players who have rosters on more than one server merging into each other, here’s how we plan on handling items, progression, and rosters together. With some exceptions, the majority of items and systems can be categorized by the following policies:

Max - The items/system are set to the highest value found on either roster.

Min - The items/system are set to the lowest value found on either roster.

Sum - Both roster’s values are added together.

Union - The items/system are added together, with duplicates being removed.

Reset - The system is reconfigured to the default value.

With that key for reference, let’s dive into how each system will function.
