*** PoE:2 Call to ARMS ***

[Daarken]

Attention Soldiers!
Due to the great quality of soldiers and players that represent the TG community, I have decided to show you my appreciation with a very important mission...

This mission if you choose to accept is non other then the final test of our hotfix release candidate. Due to the possibility of a potential leak, I have requested that these testers be hand chosen for this mission.

If your chosen for this mission, you agree not to discuss or provide any information, screenshots or files to anyone.
