Wakfu's EU Server Elbor Rolled Back To June

Wakfu initiated an unprecedented rollback for the European Elbor server, setting the world back to June 21, 2015. Four months of player progress have dissipated. Ankama stated that their database backup system was broken, and no one noticed until recently. They are still investigating the issue but the possibility of complete data recovery looks grim. Compensation packages will be distributed but it might not be enough to regain Elbor's player confidence.

Apparently, the system was broken so that the server continued to show that it was making regular backups but was actually saving the state of the game on June 21. According to one forum translator:

If you logged in on October 14th after 17:00 server time and before the hotfix, they will most likely be able to restore your account as it was on October 14th.

If you've logged in since September 14th and were in a guild, they will most likely be able to restore your level.

If you leveled up between September 29th and October 14th and were not in a guild, they will most likely be able to restore your level but with 0 XP towards the next level.

If you dropped items from monsters between September 14th and October 14th, they will most likely be able to return those items to you.

If you worked on professions between September 14th and October 14th, they will most likely be able to restore your profession level by estimating your level with a log of your actions performed.

If the last time you logged in was September 13th or earlier, everything will be rolled back to June 21st.

Elbor may become a ghost server after the rollback, and players can't be blamed for leaving.
