Got a friend who would actually click with Achaea, or a returning veteran you have been trying to lure back?

We just made it easier to bring them in, and you both get rewarded for sticking with it as they play!

Take a look at HELP REFERRALS for all specifics and exact rules.

What's new
----------
- Two referral types: New Player and Returning Player.
- Rewards for the player and the referring player when milestones are hit.
- A personal referral link plus in-game tracking for referrals and rewards.

How it works
------------
- Get your personal link with REFER LINK, then share it.
- New Players: they sign up using your link and confirm you as referrer during their first character creation.
- If they forgot the link, they can still confirm with REFER CONFIRM <PLAYER> within 25 hours of total playtime.
- Returning Players: If they log in using your link, you're automatically confirmed as referrer.
- They can also confirm with REFER CONFIRM <PLAYER> during their first login session after 365+ days.
- No self-referrals to alt accounts. Do not troll newbies to earn bonuses, this can result in a permanent ban on referring.
- Abuse can revoke rewards and add penalties. Referrer must be in good standing.
- Returning invites are limited to one per registration per real-life year.

Rewards and eligibility
-----------------------
- Rewards are based on milestones tied to referral type.
- Easier milestones award Unbound Credits, harder milestones award Iron Forged Bonds which may be used in an exclusive shop for various rewards*.
- New player referrals require the new player to not already have an account for the game.
- Returning referrals require the player to be fully inactive for 90+ days, and have no active characters.

* The Iron Works in Delos (v68716) is now open and can be found near the artefact shops. Offerings include:

- Vouchers which can be traded in for 100 bound credits, 100 housing credits, 250 customisation credits, or 3 bound Mayan Crowns.
- Statutes that grant the wearer unique deathsights on their kills.
- Vials of warpaint.
- Exclusive minipets (a lycopod and baby humgii).
- Exclusive mounts (a flameforged nightmare and an iron carriage).
- A figurehead of Aeolos.
- Buckets to transform a ship into an iron-chained version of itself.

Note: Rewards available may fluctuate and change over time.

Once again, take a look at HELP REFERRALS for all specifics and exact rules.

Enjoy!
