Celebrate Earth Day in Real Life
While you heroically help Heartwood’s forest flourish in-game, it is also a great opportunity to think about how to use your powers to help the real world too. You can make a difference by picking up trash around your neighborhood, raking your yard, making a pinecone bird feeder, planting a garden… and if you’re feeling devious, find some dandelions and blow their seeds. People think of dandelions as weeds, but they are a great source of food for insects and humans, and help restore depleted minerals to the soil.
J6 shared with us an Earth Day tradition from his home, called Earth Hour. “Everyone in the neighborhood shuts down for an hour. No lights, no TV, no phone… and it's amazingly peaceful. You take the time to talk more with your family, discover new card games, find fun things to eat that don't require an oven, and most of the time we go way beyond the hour and just forget to turn everything back on. It'll melt your worries away and might make you realize how much noise electricity makes in your life.”
We're the dominant species on the planet, but we're just one species out of millions who need it to survive. We have the time, the skill, and the knowledge to make it habitable, so start with your own backyard and watch the positivity spread outwards from there.
A new addition to Death’s Stash
A much requested item, the Red Reaper’s Skull Belt is now available in Death’s Stash, for those who like to explore. If you don’t know where Death’s Stash is, maybe try going back to where it all started…
Seasons Cleaning
This week, April Fowls and Heroes Heart Day have left Battleon! Now that the fowl invaders have been successfully repelled, Maurice can finally take his vacation until the next Heroes Heart Day. Next week, the Lunar New Year shop will be closed for business, so get your gear to celebrate the Year of the Tiger while you can!
Coming soon to AQ3D
We are excited about how well the upcoming Nulgath saga is coming together. The map, the monsters, the dungeon experience. We just need a little more time to make sure it is ready for release. If you would like to see how it’s going so far, Artix posted a sneak peak of Dage’s artwork on the monsters and weapons you will find in the beautifully haunted Red Forest.
Exit the gates of Battleon and find Hooper in the Crossroads to begin learning what he’s uncovered about the Grenwog. Hooper has been investigating this for years and needs your help uncovering clues to find the Grenwog's nest. And maybe grab some delicious snacks... I mean bait... in the hunt for the Grenwog.
The Trap is Laid
Hop down deep into what may be the Grenwog’s Lair, and fight monsters of all flavors: Rock Candy, Taffy, Hard Candy, and... Angry Carrots? While you’re in the cavern, gather Pixie Dust to harvest and place carrots to lure the Grenwog to you, just like a professional Grenwog Hunter would do!
What’s going on in Old Battleon?
Old Battleon sprouted... Mysterious Time Carrots?! We have no idea what's up with that, but maybe you can investigate! Whatever the case may be, keep an eye out for the dreaded Bunny Berserker…
Grenwog Nest items
Once you've picked up some Chocolate Grenwog Eggs from Time Carrots, the Bunny Berserker, and even the Grenwog itself, take them to Hooper and trade them for some delicious new armors and weapons! *Note: Grenwog has the only guaranteed Chocolate Egg drops every time.
Bunn Dynasty Samurai Armor set
Bunn Dynasty Head Morph
Bunn Dynasty Carrot Bow

What Happens to the Old Grenwog Items?
You can still get Gunter Armor, Grenwog weapons, and Ears and Tails in every color, all from Hooper's Grenwog Shop! They no longer cost Zard Eggs. Now they cost Chocolate Grenwog Eggs!
What About Drops?
There's plenty of drops to go around! Fight the Grenwog and Past Battleon monsters for a chance at the following items:
Carrot Sword
Carrot on a Stick
Grenwog pet
Golden Carrot Sword
Golden Carrot on a Stick

Breaking News
The invasion of Chickencow creatures from outer space has been fought back by the Heroes of Battleon, alongside the brave members of the Guardians. Heroes and Guardians should continue to mop up the last of the invading forces residing in Battleon Social District. We spoke to renowned Paladin, Pun-adin and slayer of undead things, Artix, for an update on the situation:
Artix - "We've successfully bawk-sed the fowl invaders into the Social District of Battleon, after a high steaks gambit by our Heroes and Guardians. We've yet to discover if this egg-vasion was led by some kind of cow-mmander or Dairy Queen, but we fully eggs-pect the udder madness of it all to end some time next week. Don’t worry, the time will fly right by"! Thank you so much for that commentary, Artix! We can’t wait to moo-ve on from this terrifying eggs-perience.
In other news, local romantic Maurice, who went missing last week, has now been found! He is reportedly okay, and just had an ailment to recover from. Maurice has informed this crew that he’ll be back in town for one week, before taking his regular year long vacation next week. You can find Maurice sipping on Moglinberry Juice in Yulgar’s Inn.
Now back to your regularly scheduled Design Notes.
Coming soon to AQ3D

See you in-game.

The Grenwog Appears! Hidden somewhere in Greenguard, Hooper believes he has finally found the Grenwog, but he's too terrified to investigate. Head over and see if you can find the colossal cryptid.

April 1st, 2022 Have you seen that meat-eor in the sky? I herd it just crashed into the Social District of town! "COW-BOOM!" It was actually a legen-dairy egg. The big egg-splosion unleashed... a high-steaks Chickencow Egg-vasion! (MooTube videos from Unrelia-bull sources show it to be a Special Event happening right now in AdventureQuest 3D and across 4 other Artix Entertainment video games.)
The Chicken Cow Egg-Vasion!
Cow Tip: Our attackers are a complete source of breakfast when served with milk.
Half-chicken, half-cow, and whole-stein... this is udder madness! Get your dairy-aire in-game as fast as you can. We need to beef up our defenses. Maybe we can milk these monsters for loot.
Stop the Apo-COW-lypse in 5 games!
Or is it Ar-MOO-geddon? Either way, this release is Egg-xactly what you need on the 1st day of April. Join us in AdventureQuest 3D or all of our games for this event.
AdventureQuest Worlds
Our first world boss! A titan ChickenCow hatched from the Meateor. Every player in the entire world is attacking the SAME world boss. It is a single boss monster with a health bar that spans every server and every instance. There is a chance for you to get loot every time you hit it! Which is good.. because that thing has 500 Billion Hit Points! Also... you may notice that the meat-eor destroyed town. Use your gold to help rebuild and upgrade the Town of Battleon.
Farm the Invading ChickenCow to purchase new armor sets, weapons, and more!
AdventureQuest (Original)
Data agreggated from player feedback suggests that they eggspect an astronomically-large prank this weekend. When asked for a reply, developers said, "No comet." Sounds pretty suspicious to me.

The Eggsalted Meateor has landed in Falconreach! As you sift through the remains of the once prosperous town, you catch sight of a large, oval structure looming over the destruction. Push past the fog and discover what horrors await inside…
A new rift in the cosmos has scrambled the natural order of Delta V. Horrific hybrids from outside the known Universe have infiltrated the planetary protection field and invaded PvP. Battle friends and foes to egg-spose these egg-stra-terrestrial menaces and capture them for your own!
The Legion Vs Paladin fight has now escalated to a full blown PvEvP battle!
Fight Both Monsters and Players!
This is "player versus environment versus player." This new game mode will send your team in against other players and their powerful defenses. Face your foes, complete your objectives, and earn glory in battle. For the next 2 weeks, the Siege of Souls will be completely taking over PvP, as the battle rages fiercely, but our experts believe that it should slip into the regular rotation of PvP after those 2 weeks are done. With a very heavy PvEvP style, it’s a little different than what you might be used to!
How to Play Siege of Souls
Join the Queue in from your PvP menu or the Battle Hall! It’s really that easy! No more need for assault supplies. This map is fully PvEvP. Your team will be randomly assigned to a side, Legion or Paladin. Assault the enemy base and take down their General.
Very powerful Turrets have been added to assist in protecting your base and must be defeated before the General can be killed. A powerful Big Bones, and an army of skeletons (legion) or Palatron, and an army of wolves (paladin) will also spawn to assist you in attacking the enemy base. Destroy the enemy General for a decisive victory, otherwise, the game ends after 10 minutes. The team with the most points at the end wins. Gain points for each enemy player, mob, or turret destroyed. Even if you don’t land the kill shot on the turret, you’ll still get points! Earn stacks of Fervor for kill shots on enemies!
Fervor? What’s that?
Fervor is a 4% health and damage buff that stacks with each kill shot, OR you can walk over a Crystal that spawns on the map for 3 stacks of Fervor. There are 3 crystal spawns in the map. If you die with more than 10 stacks of Fervor, you lose 2 stacks. You cannot drop below a minimum of 10 stacks from death in game. Wow, we said “Fervor” a lot just now! Fervor, fervor fervor. It’s lost all meaning now xD
Is there anything else new?
Yes! You may notice a new mini objective map in Siege of Souls. It’s a new UI for this game mode that displays the current state of the defenses. Each node represents a turret, and the skulls represent the boss. If they are outlined in yellow, they are invulnerable and you need to kill a closer defense to take down the invulnerability. If the node is gray it has been destroyed. Pretty neat, huh?
What happens to the old quest rewards?!
The Legion Assault and Golder Order Assault rewards have been moved to the Battle Hall. The quests have been removed permanently. Since these were repeatable quests, there were no badges or titles associated with completing them. Don’t worry, nothing has gone rare! Paladin Rhys and Deadeye have both returned to their factions, extremely proud of the work they’ve done. See High Marshal Firebrand for the new shop: Siege of Souls Rewards.
New rewards in the Siege of Souls Rewards Shop!
New rewards have been added to make the Siege of Souls even more interesting! Check out the list below, then check them out in the Battle Hall’s new shop: Siege of Souls Rewards.

Greetings Heroes! Can you help the head of The Ravagers, an elite group within the undead Legion, find his missing soldiers? Pivot around Lore and track down the missing Ravagers for a revolutionary reward!
Prove Your Worth
Go down for a visit to the Underworld and find Farfa, the leader of the legendary Legion Ravagers! Farfa’s elite soldiers have gone missing in action. Help track them down and prove your worth to Farfa in exchange for his knowledge of a legendary ancient weapon… the Fidg'it Spi'nar! You can find Farfa near the Warfiend in the Underworld.

The Fidg’it Spi’nar
The legendary Fidg’it Spi’nar is used by specialists within the Ravagers of the Legion. An ancient buckler forged to look like a skull. With fast-spinning scythe-like blades adorned in skeletons, this weapon will claim the souls of anyone caught in the destructive path.
Also, it's fun to spin when you're bored.
Equip the Legion Ravager armor from the 2022 Dage Collection, along with the Fidg’it Spi’nar, and become a true Ravager!
Fidg'it Spi'nar crafting unlocks once you complete the Prove Your Worth questline. Collect Underworld Metal Shards from Daily Bosses, and Fractured Souls of the Forgotten in Pointe Less to craft your very own Fidg'it Spi'nar!
Seasons cleaning!
We’re continuing our seasonal cleanup effort, sending NPC’s home after they’ve long overstayed their welcome in Battleon! To that effect, Gunpowder Mary has been convinced to return the TLAPD collections to the depths of the sea until it’s time to uncover those treasures once again, the Midnight General has gone back to the darkest darkness, and the Cyberknight has reuploaded his consciousness to, well we don’t know exactly where he went, but he said he’d return some day when we need him the most.
Content Creator Highlight
To show our appreciation for all the amazing content creators, we’re highlighting a new video every week! This week, we’d like to show our appreciation for Camarguets! He makes great videos about AdventureQuest Worlds for Portuguese speakers, and we hope he’ll try his hand at AdventureQuest3D too! If you want to hear more about AdventureQuest Worlds in Portuguese, and convince him to make some AQ3D videos, then head over to YouTube and check out Camarguets now!
Coming soon to AQ3D
Dage the Evil brings you back to the on-going fight between the Legion and Lion Fang’s Paladin order with a very exciting update. You can try it out now in the Public Test Realm!

We are currently working on the 1st map for this new story.
Yulgar's Inn Story
On Friday, Memet and I wrote a storyline for Yulgar's Inn. We can build this alongside our other releases without needing too many new assets. How do you guys feel about adding some romance-able NPCs?
Legion Fidget Spinner!?
Way back in.... um... a long time ago, we 3D printed a small number of prototype AdventureQuest 3D fidget spinners. They came with a very unique fidget spinner weapon. It is animated. However, only 20 of those were ever made. Many players have been requesting we re-add this item to the game. At one point I had said that we would add a re-textured version of it to the live event shop. But how about we release a quest-line that allows all players to get one? This week we are going to do just that. Since it is March, makes sense that it should be a Legion themed Fidget Spinner weapon. Clarion wrote the quests to unlock the ability to craft it. It is scheduled to go live this week!
