AHOY! All dressed up and no place to plunder? Har Har. Today being th' official Talk Like a Pirate Day and all, me crew worked through the night making a special map fer ye! We set sails for Clawg Island!



Th' island is barely the size o' me cook's bald spot, but rich in loot. Legend says it only shows up once a year-- and every swashbucking scourge of the 13 seas aims their bow there when it appears. If ye look at the island-- it be too straight. Think'n types be saying it might have been sum sorta sunken city. But shiver me timbers... if it were', was it home to whatever that golden skeleton was? ...before it was'nt.



Avast! You be finding Raspscallion & Scallawag (I be spelling it "Scallywag", but Cysero be getting his briches all in a bunch o'er it.) gear.

Talk to Captain Rhubarb in town to travel to the island... not much be known of it fer "Dead men tell no tales."

Alpha Pirate Shell Shoulders, Gloves, and Pirate Sword Back Item!

AdventureQuest 3D keeps getting better, and in our next major release we will have the new Warrior, Rogue, Mage, and Guardian classes. Once you fall in love with those, we will rapidly be releasing Dragonslayer, Paladin, Necromancer, Ninja, and... Alpha Pirate-- which will be our first ranged Pistol class. We really wanted to surprise you by having it ready for this event, but it will be worth the wait. So, for this special event, we put bonus gifts in your Alpha Pirate shop at the Founder's sanctuary to give you more pieces to your perma-rare set-- Alpha Pirate Shell Shoulders, Gloves, and a Pirate Sword Back Item!




Thee first thing ye need to know ‘bout becomin’ a pirate be crucial: ye gotta believe yer a pirate! If ye don’t truly believe ye be a Swashbuckler, then ain't nobody else gonna be fooled!

Best follow these steps below!

• We pirates don’t be good at speakin’. We scowl a lot, and we like to mutter most o’ our words. Best get used to it, matey!
  
• Ye gotta run yer words together. Ye gotta slur. Don’t use no proper sentences, neither!
  
• If ye still have yer hands, use a motherload o’ gestures. Movin’ yer hands about when ye speak be key to a pirate’s life. It also be good fer ye circulation!
  
• Pirates be loud n’ lusty. Th' louder ye be, th' smart’r ye sound!
  
• Never say “you” or “your” unless ye wishes to walk thee plank! It be “ye” an’ “yer” in th' Pirate’s life! Savvy?
  
• Oh, and it be “me” and not no “mine”! Fer example, “that be me sword, ye no-good, two-toothed, thievin’ scallywag!”
  
• Drop th' “g” after words endin’ in “ing”. There be no need fer that “g” after many words, like goin’, and questin’, and fishin’, and swimmin’!
  
• Make up words if ye have to! We pirates don’t be minding a wee bit o’ hornswaggling!
  
• Never leave port without yer good luck charm, or there be mighty dire consequences! I never leaves home without me lucky skull beret!

On behalf o’ th' Aaaaaaartix Entertainment crew, ye be ready fer Talk Like a Pirate Day! Grab ye cutlass and ye hat, and don’t be forgettin’ yer lucky charm! At any time that ye be needin’ a quick reminder, come back ‘n get a refresher! Savvy, pirate?

"OMG! I can transform into a Bush!" - a random player who should have been talking about the world plot, cinematics, mini-bosses, surprises, secrets, challenges, puns, and ...yup, you really can find a secret that lets you transform into a bush.




Who is this strange scythebow weilding guy? What does that gold symbol on his chest mean? Who does his hair? Wait... scythebow? How do you use a bow made out of two scythes!?




Check out the new Greenguard and you will find we not only listened to your feedback, but also poured in a little of the secret sauce. (R.I.P "The Grind")




Go into the field with the world's foremost Frogzard Expert. He knows them inside and out... literally.




He also now lives atop an impressively tall Sneevil Tree fort. Perhaps you can claim that box crown for yourself?




50% Unicorn, 50% BRUTAL!!!!!! Do you have what it takes to challenge our dude-bro version of Monty Python's Black Knight?




As you progress through the story you will unlock different things to craft-- starting with the Zardscale armor set. You will find it is much faster and more fun to make items now.




We hid things around Greenguard forest for you... most you can handle yourself with the right gear. But to battle the Clawg, you will need to bring a few tough friends.




There is a secret hidden in the forest which... if found, will allow any hero to transform themselves into a bush at will. Excels at hiding, sneaking, espionage, and x-treme bush racing. Moves at 0% travel speed.




Head to ye' old barber shop for all new ways to customize your hero including beards, braids, and you can now change your eye color, lip color, and we added new skin & hair colors. We also made it so you can spin your character around while customizing-- and added a random button for awesome and sometimes horrifying results!




10% off this weekend only from Gaz. Transform into a Green or Elvenguard Dragon at will and hover across the land at 130% speed.




Did I mention the Stone in the Sword in the Stone thing? Come play the new Greenguard with us. Simply login and choose Greenguard from the travel menu. Battle on!

P.S. We (Artix Entertainment / The AdventureQuest 3D Team) are located in Tampa, Florida. We have secured the lab and are now bracing for Hurricane Irma which appears to be coming for a visit. It is the biggest hurricane in current history. Do not worry, the game servers will not be effected, they are in Texas. But the staff and I may be unavailable/offline for a few days if the power goes out, or we have to fight sharks or whatever else the hurricane hurls at us. If you see anyone ask why we/player support/Heromart has not responded right away, please let them know we will get them fixed up as soon as we are back online. To everyone in the path of the hurricane, be safe.

P.P.S. If you have any problems be sure to go to options on the login screen and "Clear Cache"

Craft the amazing new armor and axe set at Cysero's forge. It is rumored that the markings on this armor have a very special meaning to the Iron Berserker who live in the Frozen Northlands.



You can craft this new set using the Battle Gems that you earn from random adventures.




We snuck the Iron Berserker set into the game so you would have something to do while we finish up the next major release of AdventureQuest 3D. Coming very soon we will have the new customization options including bears, mustaches, braids, eye colors, lip colors, and new female faces, and more. We will release updated Greenguard Forest 2.0 which was rewritten with the fun and humor you expect from our games, and most importantly... you will at last meet one the most important characters in the AdventureQuest 3D's main story line.
