That didn't turn out quite as expected..
Game flexed some legal muscle to ensure people would adhere to the April
1st release date, and then (according to some) proceeded to sell their
initial stock of the game before April 1st themselves.
GOA arranged something with DLGamer.com where you could receive a CD key
and download the game, but their download servers were quickly
overloaded. If you know how you can just patch your TOA client to
Catacombs using the GOA patchers, but now Catacombs is on pre-order as
well at DLGamer.com for whatever reason.
The first level 50 Catacombs class (Warlock) appeared friday afternoon
on Lyonesse (German server), a few hours later he had his artifacts at
level 10 as they did several artifact encounters on a precreated level 5
Mystic. Appararently not all encounters have a level requirement :P
