How to Fix the “Server Error ID: 5/10004” Error in Tower of Fantasy

Check the status of the servers

The first thing that a player should do on facing this issue is to check the server status. This can be done in a few different ways.

  • “Tower of Fantasy” updates its scheduled maintenance and tweets on its Twitter handle. You can keep an eye on their social media to know about the scheduled maintenance.

  • You can also check the status from the game dashboard itself. All the available servers are color coded that makes it tracking them easier and to indentify.

If you see that your preferred server is unavailable or red (Which means overload) by any means the best option for you would be to change over to an available server with a lighter load on it. In case nothing is available it’s best to wait out the rush and try joining at a later time.

Check Your Connection Status

You can expect frequent server issues if your connection is not stable or upto the mark for the game in question. Here it is Tower of Fantasy.

Here are a few points to check to ensure that you have proper internet connectivity.

  • Close all unnecessary background apps, which aren’t being used or isn’t critical to the proper functioning of your system. This ensures minimum load on your available bandwidth.
  • Run a quick speed test using websites like speedtest.net or fast.com. If you have a slow or unstable connection, it means that your login requests are getting timed out and you are missing out on stability.
  • Initiate a quick router restart, also known as a soft reset. This helps in clearing out the cache of the router.
  • If you are running the game for the first time and you face this issue, this might also mean your firewall can be blamed for this issue.
  • Check your outbound and inbound rules for something preventing a successful connection.
  • It is recommended to disable the firewall completely and trying logging in. Sometimes the firewall blocks 3rd party connections that can cause this issue.

Retrying Logging In as a last resort

If all of the mentioned steps do not work for you, try retrying the log in option until you can get in. That is because, sometimes there are long login queues that take time to clear out.

Spamming the login makes sure you are in the queue and get in as soon as there is a space to do so. This is, by no means, a viable option, but if nothing else works, give this a go!

Restart Tower of Fantasy

Sometimes a simple thing like a restart can fix most of the issues regarding servers, error codes, and logins. That is because if there is a patch being pushed by the developers, restarting makes sure that it gets applied and the errors getting fixed.

Make sure to either do this at the very beginning of your troubleshooting or at the very end for safety measures.


That would be all from this troubleshooting guide for Tower of Fantasy. I hope you manage to fix any error codes or server issues that you are encountering. Make sure to check out gamerunits for more of such guides.
