A merger of merged servers. Long considered impossible, today this magical occurrence is finally within reach… In this article, we explain all the steps we went through to complete the server merger for October. (CW: The word "server" will be used with alarming frequency in this article.)

We took advantage of Update 2.65 to balance the Pandawa class. Check out the objectives we intend to achieve right now.

Update 2.65 gave us an opportunity to make some changes to common spells, which is something we have been wanting to do for a very, very long time.

Inspired by Temporis and the Tempokens timeline, we wanted to add a similar mechanic to the game. Although incredibly popular, the Temporis editions don't necessarily include all players.
In addition, you play in Temporis with characters progress differently and have different equipment than on the classic servers. What we are proposing here is a progression system with objectives over a set period that can be completed with your classic characters.

As a further improvement on the changes we made back in March, but also as a transitional step before the final update with the overhaul of social aspects (coming soon!), we've been working on improving guild chests.

To celebrate three years in the World of Twelve, we decided the Temporal Anomalies deserved a bit of renovation! And of course, area bonuses and legendary pets will be part of the change.

Greetings, adventurers of the World of Twelve. I'm writing today to tell you about the next update coming soon to Retro: 1.38, aptly titled the "PvP Update". It's focused on convenience, clarity in combat, and a few tweaks to the tracking system.

As previously mentioned, we're currently working on an overhaul of the game's social aspects – a major change that will extend over multiple updates (and yes, that means you can expect more guild-related changes in the next few updates as well). 

Find out what Update 2.63 has in store for you!

As we announced in the KrosmoNote, we'll be making certain changes to make it easier to complete the quest An Eternal Harvest. In recent years, many of you have shared your feedback with us about this quest, especially the archmonster part of it. It's that portion of the quest that we'll be targeting now. 

The time has come for the World of Twelve's adventurers to celebrate Iop's arrival in their lands. He's fond of nice meals with friends and good old-fashioned beatings, so he's adding some seasoning to the DOFUS Retro experience – his own special seasoning, of course! Temporis is back, and Iop is working to bring everyone their own version of the game, one that is faster, more powerful, and more fun!

This 2021 end-of-year update offers plenty of new content to finish the year in style. We've been talking about it for months now: a modern makeover for Bonta and Brakmar. After Astrub and Pandala, now the World of Twelve's two most iconic rival cities are in line for a facelift. This revamp and its geographic upheavals will be accompanied by new additions to the cities' history… and their sewers. It'll also be an opportunity to learn more about the "Eternal Conflict" between them, its consequences and its origins, and the reasons for this endless confrontation and the forces behind it… 

It's here at last! The revamp of social aspects in Dofus has begun. It will continue over several updates, and for this first step, we've been working on recruitment within guilds.

Dear adventurers of the World of Twelve, today we take our tofu-feather pens in hand to write to you about an update to the mimisymbics system in Retro.
We're no longer satisfied with their implementation in the game, and we've decided to make some changes to certain mechanics.

In this devblog, we'll look at the two major aspects of update 2.61: the modifications to the Kolossium and class balancing!

Here's your chance to learn about all the new class mechanics in the upcoming Temporis!

Dear adventurers of the World of Twelve, today I take my tofu-feather pen in hand to talk to you a bit about Update 1.36. An update that's focused on convenience, usability, and fixing multiple issues awaited by the community!

Have a seat, grab a nice cup of coffee or tea, and let's get started!

After a focus on bug fixes in update 2.59, we're back with more traditional content for update 2.60: the continuation of the Pandala and Eliocalypse storylines, a new area, and new equipment. Get ready to take on hordes of opponents who are just itching for a fight!

Dear adventurers of the World of Twelve, today I take my tofu-feather pen in hand to talk to you a bit about the future of DOFUS Retro. Last August, we presented the content of version 1.33 in a livestream that included a very special announcement: We raised the possibility of a potential update that would provide you with a way to obtain the last two Primordial Dofus in-game. Once this exciting livestream was over, we checked in with you to see what you thought of the idea. A huge majority of you were in favor of this plan, and so today we're finally presenting a few more details about update 1.35.

Have a seat, grab a nice cup of coffee or tea, and let's get started!

In early February, we reached out to get your various ideas about modernizing the Blacksmith Dungeon, so let's revisit the topic!

The main purpose of the changes to the Well of Infinite Dreams is to balance combat. This obviously involves balancing combat modifiers, but it also involves incompatibilities and assigned scores.

After an early announcement for the 2.58 update, this new feature to guide you in your progress will see the light of day on the 2.59 beta server.
