The answer is that we don't have set dates just yet, but that testing is going well so far. We will be looking to do the first stages of the 1.06 update once we are happy that they are stable on the test servers. Progress is good there so far, and once everyone is back from their seasonal retreats we will be pushing hard to get the update rolling on the live servers.
(on a side note...is there a forum acceptable term I can use for that these days?...since the dreaded '
soon' and '
when it's ready' seem to be most under appreciated
Either way...it may be both or neither of those things depending on your own personal relative scale!)
The PVP towers will then of course depend on the timing of the previous stages. The expansion is also looming now, and is coming along nicely itself, and there is a chance the two may clash some, so we will be making a call there once we see when we get Guild Renown and Tier Three onto the live environment.
