The story of this shard

X2 grew from the AkarraXP shard hosted in fall 2015, based on Akarrian Expansion by “Apocalypse”, itself based on Whispers in Akarra by Jens “Khaile” Bergensten.

  • This version of Akarra was released to allow old fans and new players alike to play and explore the world of Akarra on a stable 24/7 server.
  • All monsters grant 2× the experience points, providing a faster-paced experience for players who have gone through the grind dozens of times, as well as encouraging more creativity in character builds and endgame playstyles.
  • A new Zatra’s Basement leveling area is located directly west of Hope.
  • Fighter weapons were buffed with more damage and lower attack speed, and all Fighters could use War Stomp to compensate for powerful mage area attacks.
  • Many skills were rebalanced, with rebalancing described as a work in progress.
  • More coming soon!
