What is ValorBots?
+
ValorBots is a unique AI bot system on the Valor server. They require no commands and no extra interface — the bots sign up for the Dungeon Finder and raid queues automatically. You can add them to your group only while you are inside a dungeon or raid. The bots use the spells and tactics of their class just like real players.

When do the open beta and the release start?
+
The open beta test starts on 16 March 2026 at 16:00 MSK. The server is open to everyone — sign up and join in! The release date will be announced later.
Important: there will be a wipe at release — all characters and progress are reset for a fair start. Your accumulated votes, however, will be kept! Beta rates are x10, so it is the perfect time to explore the server and test the races and classes.
