大家好。

我叫Pleasant，是开源副本开发团队的一员，我们队伍正在拼命工作以准备重现魔兽世界史上最特别的副本，纳克萨玛斯。


在香草年代只有不到百分之一的活跃玩家曾经杀死过克尔苏加德，包括我自己，一直梦想着亲自看一下最终场景并参与一下这个副本。


现在，梦想已经朝着现实迈进了一大步。 


纳克萨玛斯公测将于2017年7月12号开始。 纳克萨玛斯是个有着15boss并且大量怪物的大型副本。最令人难以置信的是，boss的多样性要求玩家们需要高度的协调配合以及事先准备。


为了让该副本尽可能贴近官方，我们需要大量集中的和有效的反馈。为了完成这一目的，我们开发了一个方案以最大化获得玩家反馈并维持副本的完整性控制。 测试服务器将转移A服数据库并邀请每一个公会加入测试。


一个公会花费在每个boss身上的时间将是自动规定好的有限的时间。每次测试都集中在一个区域，先从蜘蛛区域开始。我们将提供一个消耗品供应商，并可能在不同的时间提供其他商人以测试奖金和任务。 


我们希望每个公会参与测试时以某种形式记录他们的行动和提供详细列举他们的经验报告以及他们可能遇到的任何问题。随着测试服的进展，如果我们没有发现任何证据表明他们在测试反馈中有参与能力，我们可能会限制一些公会参与进一步检验。


我们目前计划将最困难的遭遇测试限制在少数几家提供最高质量反馈的公会上。 


每个测试部分都很短，以便我们的团队能够快速地修复和迭代这些遇到的问题，加快我们的反馈循环。我们还将每个测试部分轮流一周的每一天对每个公会都会开放，以便最大数量的公会成员有提供反馈的机会。


第一个测试时间表如下： 

蜘蛛区试验计划 开放--7月12日，13日（周三和周四） 

关闭--7月14日，15日（周五和周六） 

开放--7月16日，17日（周日和周一） 


当纳克萨玛斯发布时，将尽可能实现所有boss可用。


我们目前还没有计划大幅度人为地夸大其困难，因为我们相信模拟官方的难度足够带来预期的挑战。提前感谢所有公会自愿献出他们的时间帮助Elysium项目提供最佳的纳克萨玛斯的体验。

Greetings! 


My name is Pleasant and I’m part of the open-source raid development team. Our team has been working hard to prepare for the release of the most exclusive World of Warcraft raid that has ever been released, Naxxramas. Less than 1% of the active player base during the end of vanilla killed Kel’Thuzad. For many players, including myself, the dream of finally seeing and clearing Naxx40 has been a long time coming. That dream is taking one giant step forward to reality.


The Naxxramas Public Test will officially begin on JULY 12th, 2017.


Naxxramas is a large instance featuring 15 bosses with a significant amount of trash. The most incredible thing about the instance is the diversity of boss encounters that reward highly coordinated and prepared players. In order to make sure the instance is as close to a retail-like experience as possible, we need a lot of focused and intelligent feedback. To accomplish this, we have developed a strategy to maximize player feedback and maintain the integrity of the raid.


The PTR will feature a transferred database from Anathema and every guild is invited to join the PTR to test. There will be an automated limitation on the amount of time a guild will be able to spend on each boss. The testing will focus on one wing at a time, beginning with the Spider Wing. We will provide a vendor for consumables and may, at various times, include other vendors to test set bonuses and quests.


We expect every guild participating in the PTR to record their raid in some form and provide detailed and cited reports on their experiences and any issues they may encounter. As the PTR progresses, we may limit the ability for some guilds to test further if we have found no evidence of their participation in the testing feedback. We currently plan to limit the testing of the most difficult encounters to a small handful of guilds who have provided the highest quality feedback.


Each test session will be short in order to allow our team to fix and iterate on the encounters quickly and speed up our feedback loop. We will also rotate the days of the week each session will be open to allow the maximum number of guilds the opportunity to provide feedback. The first PTR schedule will be as follows:


Spider Wing Test Schedule

OPEN — July 12th, 13th (Wed & Thurs)

CLOSED — July 14th, 15th (Fri & Sat)

OPEN — July 16th, 17th (Sun & Mon)


When Naxxramas is released, it will be released in full with all bosses available. We currently have no plans to significantly buff specific encounters to artificially inflate its difficulty because we believe the retail-like difficulty of the instance will bring the intended challenge. Thanks in advance to all the guilds who will volunteer their time to help the Elysium Project deliver the best Naxxramas experience possible.
