The Crest Cube design contest starts NOW!

Welcome to the location of the most spectacular and colorful display in all of Erenor! Starting November 12 at 1 AM UTC (6 PM PDT), head over to Falcorth Plains to enjoy the combination of color, entertainment, and fireworks, in the Shadowguard Festival. You will find portals to the Festival grounds in Austera, Marionople, and Diamond Shores. During the event, Falcorth Plains will be into a Festival period, which prevents PvP from taking place.

No festival is complete without tasks, and there will be 9 Daily Quests for you to solve. Succeed, and you will win Shadowguard Festival Coins that are exchangeable for cool items at the Exchanger on Mirage Isle.

Exchange your Shadowguard Festival Coins at the Exchanger on Mirage Isle for any of the following items:

Small Shadowguard Firecracker (Furniture) - 70x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Crest Yata Nesting Dolls - 100x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Crest Tanning Platform - 70x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Flamesinger - 50x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Purple "Snowlion Snuggles" Painting - 30x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Pink "Snowlion Snuggles" Painting - 30x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Vivalt's Sketch - 30x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Splendid Festival Fireworks - 5xShadowguard Festival Coins
Heartwarming Festival Fireworks - 5x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Mystic Festival Fireworks - 5x Shadowguard Festival Coins
Manastorm Crystal - 10x Shadowguard Festival Coins (Free-to-Play Servers ONLY)

This event and all its NPCs will disappear on November 26 at 1 AM UTC (6 PM PDT) so hurry before the merriment ends.

Starting Thursday, November 12, and lasting through Thursday, December 17, before the start of that week's maintenance, you can grab your Ruby from the Marketplace for 10 Loyalty Tokens on Legacy and 10 Diligence Coins on Archeage: Unchained.

If each day during the event, players with a character level 30 or higher maintain access for two (2) consecutive hours, they will receive a Gem Upgrade Scroll* - up to 10 per day! To claim the Scroll, click on the activated button in the lower-left corner of the screen.

*Please note: Although the description says the 'Gem Upgrade Scroll' will be sent every 40 minutes, this is incorrect and will instead be sent every 2 hours. This is a known issue.

Use your Gem Upgrade Scroll to upgrade your Ruby to a Garnet, a Topaz, and others until you acquire the coveted Prismatic Diamond. These Scrolls work similarly to Awakening, so the possibility of failure exists. Proceed with caution!

Also, there are Daily Quests that will grant you additional Gem Upgrade Scrolls. Complete your Daily Quests quickly as they will be reset each day.


In Mirage Isle, you will find the Gem Exchanger and all the great rewards your upgraded Gems will provide!

The rewards are:

Ruby (Rank 1) - F2P: 3x Manastorm Crystals (Bound) - B2P: 10x Diligence Coins (Bound)

The Rise of Nehliya dawns upon ArcheAge and ArcheAge: Unchained. Explore the brand new Mysthrane Gorge location and work with the Crimson Watch to understand more about the Ipnya and their struggles with brand new Main Story Quests! Challenge the ancient Ipnya Machinery gone rampant – the Risopoda. These war machines have lost control without the presence of the Ipnya and challenge the integrity of the very Sealstones holding Akasch in their alternate dimension. Afterward, eliminate the biggest threat to Erenor so far – Nehliya. Stowed away for thousands of years, this Akasch had been laying still awaiting instruction on releasing the rest of her people out into the world of Erenor. All this and much more awaits you in our most recent update!



Beyond the Western Hiram Mountains lies a land embued with magic and evil. Now abandoned, it was once the battleground between the Ipnya and Akasch and home to the Halnaak’s Arcane Academy. It holds the story of the past and the future.



Join the Crimson Watch and Ardios to unveil the secrets that lie within the Mysthrane Gorge about the Ipnya and Akasch with (9) nine brand new Main Story Quests!



Designed by the Ipnya to defeat the Akasch, conquer the agile and powerful war machines, Risopoda! Each Risopod was built to aid the outnumbered Ipnya forces while under their control; without Ipnysh presence, these machines will wreak havoc and destroy the very Sealstones that keep the Akasch within The Abyss.



Fight the brand new Raid Boss lurking within Mysthrane Gorge, Nehliya! Escaping through a crack in the seal that kept them in The Abyss, this Akasch keeps a watchful eye over the entirety of Erenor waiting for instruction from her Queen. Stop her before it’s too late.



Get the simplicity of being a landowner with a fraction of the work! Introducing the Farmhand system, you can now hire your very own Farmhand to tend your land and do Trade Runs. Improve your productivity with your very own Farmhand available for any farm thats 16×16 or larger!

A powerful and foreboding presence stirs among the ruins of Halnaak's Arcane Academy within the Mysthrane Gorge - a land since laid untouched for thousands of years until recently. With its intentions unknown, you must discover what lies ahead.

Explore the Mysthrane Gorge in the Rise of Nehliya update coming on November 12! Defeat enemies corrupted by the Akasch, obtain Soulslake Gear to show off your victory and conquest against a truly powerful monster and defend the Sealstones at whatever the cost. This update is sure to put your vehicle upgrading skills to the test and push your faction coordination to its limits!

The Little Witch and her friends have prepared an exciting new challenge for accomplished broom riders this Hallowtide.

To participate in this competition, Adventurers ready to take flight may borrow a Mirage Broom from the Little Witch on Mirage Isle starting on October 22nd.

Successfully fly your broom through 5 consecutive gates without falling off to complete the Broom Rider quest. To up the ante, a second quest - Broom Master - will be added, where you must again successfully navigate through another 5 gates. Sounds easy? Well, those 5 gates are in a more difficult area!

Of course, no Hallowtide is complete without a little scare. Along the track, Mirage Ghosts, Wraiths, Scarecrows, and other spooky friends of the Little Witch are ready to distract and interrupt your flight and test your abilities. Use the unique skills of your broom to avoid these obstacles and try to reach the finishing line as fast as possible to receive additional rewards!

The faster you glide, you can earn additional rewards such as:

Broom Rider: 5 Little Witch Tokens
Broom Master: 5 Little Witch Tokens
Finishing in 3min: 10 Little Witch Tokens
Finishing in 3min 30sec: 7 Little Witch Tokens
Finishing in 4min: 5 Little Witch Tokens
Finishing in 6min: 3 Little Witch Tokens
Finishing in 6min+: 1 Little Witch Token

Of course, the event wouldn’t be complete without a couple of achievements, and the Little Witch brewed up some special rewards to incentivize participation.

Broom Rider: Flying through 160 pumpkins in a row, without losing the “Pumpkin Collector” buff grants the title “Broom Rider”.

Knows no Fear: Completing the quest “Broom Rider” 10 times grants the title “Knows no Fear” and a title icon of a jack-o’-lantern.

Might be a Witch: Completing the quest “Broom Master” 5 times grants the title “Might be a Witch”.

Ghost of Mirage: Completing the entire course in less than 4min 3 times grants the title “Ghost of Mirage” and a title icon of an adorable ghost.

Finally, avid Token collectors can exchange their Little Witch Tokens at the Hallowtide Gift Exchanger for Bound Serendipity Stones, Honorable Victory Potions Rank 5, Honorable Vocation Potions Rank 5, Radiant Hiram Awakening Scrolls, Brilliant Hiram Awakening Scrolls, Radiant Infusion Supply Kits, and Fortune Boxes! ArcheAge Free-to-Play servers have the added option to exchange these coins for Manastorm Crystals. However, be sure to turn in your Hallowtide Coins for your favorite goodies before the vendor disappears on November 12th!

Hurry up and take flight, as this event ends on November 5th!
