A horrifying new fight for those who have unlocked the Arena of Souls
Calling all heroes! A Legion Dragon has been resurrected by a vile necromancer. We need your help to defeat him and his minions. Be careful though, the necromancer has recruited himself a group of samurai warriors to aid him! Once the challenge is cleared, you will be rewarded with great loot, including new Legion items and a title! You can access the challenge by talking to the book next to the door to the Arena of Souls. You will need to be level 45 and have completed the Underworld story to access the fight.

• Soulbane Ninkata
  
• Soulbane Oni Mask Snarling Death
  
• Soulbane Oni Mask Shadows
  
• And a new Title! “Soulbane Samurai”

Finally, it is back! Buy a Summoning Rune from the Underworld Summoner... and use it to summon a Legionary for you and all of your friends to battle. For those who want to host their own events in game, we also have Greater Legion Summoning Runes. The Greater Legion Summoning Rune will spawn a Greater Legionary which can summon up to 6 lesser legionaries. Sometimes the summoned lesser legionaries will be upgraded to a Rogue Legionnaire, which has double drop rates and a chance to get a live event coin!



These summoned monsters always drop a special currency known as Legion Soul Remnants. These can be used to get items from the shop on the bridge in town. Summoned monsters also have a chance to drop one of 15 items including weapons, armor, and exclusive travel forms.

For those of you that are already a Guardian, you will get both the Wings of the Astral Veil and the Spectral Wings of the Astral Veil upon purchasing any Dragon Crystal package in the upgrade shop. Check your inventory on your next login to see both blades in your inventory.


No matter if necromancy or ninja…mancy… is your calling, let us not forget the true significance of a birthday. For the birth of Dage the Dark Lord marked the beginning of a new era for the forces of darkness – and fantastic art design. Let this day be a reminder that even in the depths of darkness, there is always the promise of achieving greatness!

Thank you and be careful in that new AdventureQuest 3D challenge fight.... You and your friends are in for the fight of your un-lives.

Battle on!
The AdventureQuest 3D Team

Greetings, Hero! A new mission has emerged from the shadows, beckoning you to a tale of mystery and sorrow. In every main saga zone, a new NPC awaits with a shop filled with gear tailored to your level.


Additionally, we've supercharged the XP from questing in the early zones of the main story, and a week long  gold boost to boot! Let’s dive into the details!




Embark on a poignant journey in "Shadow of One's Self." A woman’s lover has vanished into the night, leaving only silence and mystery in his wake. She needs your help to uncover the truth of his fate. Can you solve the mystery and bring her closure? During the Darkovia saga, seek out Altaria in Boog's Tavern to begin the quest.

You will be rewarded with...


Shadowsunder, a blade that gleams with the promise of resolve and strength.




You can play this new story adventure once you have completed the vampire & werewolf fueled Darkovia Saga. If you have not played through the Darkovia Saga yet, then prepare to step into the war between the Vampires and the Werewolves as both sides attempt to fulfill the prophecy of the Blood Moon. To begin or continue this level 18+ saga (That is level, not age.... although Safiria's dress really is something... the new quest is level 21. Which makes sense. It does start in a tavern after all.)  Open your adventure menu and go to Main Story and then Darkovia.




Players with low level gear have been asking where to get better gear during the main story. Look no further than Justin Case. He is a NPC dedicated to making sure you’re well-equipped for the challenges ahead. Justin's shop offers level-appropriate gear to ease your journey through each of the main saga zones. He is located at the beginning of each of the main saga zones.




We increased the XP for main story quests from Doomwood all the way to Ashfall, including dungeon side quests from Greenguard through Shadowskull Tower. These changes are designed to streamline your adventure, making it easier to progress through the main story uninterrupted.


The Lunar New Year celebration is drawing to a close, and with it the Lunar New Year shop is now closed, but not to fret, hero!  The Dragon Guardian shop will transition to its new home in the Guardian Tower on Guardian Fortes. Make sure to secure your dragon-themed items before the Year of the Dragon festivities conclude!




Next week heralds the arrival of the Dage collection, complete with blue flames and skulls. The update will include gifting and a challenging level 45 boss fight. Prepare your gear and rally your allies; epic battles and legendary rewards await.

See you in game and…

Battle On!

Your friendly neighborhood AQ3D team

Join the Tailor Scouts on their mission to retrieve the coveted Mithril Shears. These shears are a magical item that will help Winnie make new, more powerful costumes, taking their style to the next level! However, an encounter with the Fashion Police pokes a hole in their plans and threatens an old friendship. Help the Tailor Scouts stop the Fashion Police and maybe even save an old friend in the process.

Note: You must complete the first quest, “Tailor Scouts” in order to begin this quest, “The Mithril Shears”.



When you talk to Winnie in Battleon about The Mithril Shears, she informs you that Tailor Scout Melanie is taking longer than expected to retrieve the coveted magical Mithril Shears from Arcangrove. The mission is simple, find Melanie and help her bring home the shears. However, the Fashion Police show up just in time to snag the Mithril Shears before you can. Help Melanie and the other Tailor Scouts track down the Fashion Police and get back those shears for Winnie! On the way, you just might save an old friend from becoming a fashion victim herself.



Earn these Tailor Academy Uniforms and Shoes as you play! Later, you can craft the Fashion Police outfit as well (and additional Tailor Academy Uniforms), from Winnie’s Tailor Academy Uniforms shop when you complete the Mithril Shears quest.

As of this release, all commercial music within AdventureQuest 3D (with the exception of some tracks provided by guest artists) has been removed from the game maps! Jongaar (with some help from Broomtool) has spent many months replacing the soundtracks in the main maps with his own custom music, and is continuing to work on replacing the music in the side story and event maps as well. This is a huge task and will take a long time to get every map filled with new soundtracks. However, this means that our content creators are now free to stream AQ3D with the sound on without fear of their stream being demonetised. So, if you happen to enter a map without a soundtrack playing in the background, that’s not a bug. New music is on the way!

Carnaval has left the Social District until next year.

• Lunar New Year event ends near the end of February.
  
• Heroes Heart Day Collection and related content leaves around March 13th, 2024.

Next week is the last week of February, which means… Gold Boost! This will be quickly followed by the new March Promo Item, so head to the Upgrade Shop to grab your Crimson Moon Sword before it’s too late.

See you in game and…
Battle On!

1.111.0 fixes and updates

New Mail System! Send and receive messages in game!
Tweaks and polish to the Guild UI
Brand new introductory area for new players

The Lunar New Year is a time where citizens all around Lore celebrate their good fortune and prosperity! Meet Saber in the Social District to get started on your Lunar New Year festivities! She has exciting quests and shops with delightful rewards based on the year’s (and past) animal representative, and 2024 is the year of the dragon!

Note: The Lunar New Year shops and quests are seasonal (temporary) but come back every year.



Check out the new Dragon Scaled Guardian shop where a brilliant new golden dragon armor is exclusive to Dragon Guardians only! If you purchased the Dragon Guardian upgrade from Upgrade Shop, you can get the whole set from this shop for FREE! Just talk to Guardian Tormir in Battleon or Saber in the Social District.



Moonlight Shop
Saber will trade you special items for delicious Moonlight Biscuits from Darkovia. Moonlight Biscuits drop from monsters all around Darkovia this February, including the dungeons.

Lucky Envelope Daily
Turn in 5 Moonlight Biscuits for a Lucky Envelope and some Firecrackers! This is based on the real life tradition of giving red envelopes during the Lunar New Year celebrations which symbolize good wishes and luck for the future. Red envelopes usually contain money, so these Lucky Envelopes can be sold for 5000 gold.



Carnaval starts in Rio on February 9th, so we’re taking the party to the Social District with the Carnaval Sneevils! These guys are barrels of fun and drop Carnaval Feathers to trade with the Adventuretainer for colorful gear! The party lasts for two weeks, so grab your friends and get ready to get down with the Adventuretainer.



Thank you so much for joining our live playtest of the new intro zone, Battleon Foothills. We have used your wonderful feedback to polish and smooth out the rough edges.

New players will enter the Foothills after leaving Death’s Lair. That’s right. Vane no longer tosses you across the lands of Lore. Instead, they will encounter the various NPCs who can continue to teach them the gameplay basics of AdventureQuest 3D before moving on to the city of Battleon. Hopefully this will result in less confused players once they begin the core story and begin to explore the game on their own.

You can still return to the Battleon Foothills through Heroes Bend (to the right of the Crossroads) after passing the Blue Flying Eyes, but just know that everyone’s quest progress for this area has been reset. Also, by popular demand, Dragonwatch Keep will remain accessible, just detached from the tutorial and main storyline. You can find it easily in the Adventure Menu under Side Stories.

• Lunar New Year event ends near the end of February.
  
• Carnaval event leaves the Social District around February 21st.

Next week Heroes Heart Day celebrations begin! Maurice will return to Battleon to show you his love and appreciation with a new Heroes Heart Day Collection.

See you in game and…
Battle On!

This masterfully forged weapon draws its name from the mesmerizing hue that seeps into its razor sharp edge. Crafted under the full Crimson Moon, this sword combines both elegance and deadly prowess, making this the perfect choice for all who seek style and strength on and off the battlefield.

The Crimson Moon Sword weapon is included with all packages from the Upgrade Shop, including Guardian and Lore Strider. Guardian packages also give the Radiant Crimson Moon Sword weapon. Check your inventory on your next login after purchase and enjoy the additional 50% bonus Dragon Crystals as well!

Note: Purchases from the Upgrade Shop in January prior to this update on February 1st, 2024, are no longer retroactively awarded these items.

Great! When you buy any package, you will get both versions of the Radiant Crimson Moon Sword directly added to your inventory.

If you miss the promotional period, Guardians can still get the Radiant Crimson Moon Sword. Head to the Guardian Tower to talk to Fortes. He has a shop for "Special Guardian Rewards" where you can buy the Radiant Crimson Moon Sword and any other special Guardian items released through these monthly promotions with Guardian Class Tokens. Make sure you have completed the Guardian Initiation to unlock class gear.

Hello Hero!
It’s time that AdventureQuest 3D’s early game got a refresh. The game has changed a lot over the years, mostly in the newer maps and late game story lines; so, alongside the regular content releases, we’re steadily working on making the game’s progression feel more intentional and smooth.
And so, we must begin at the beginning. The tutorial.

We actually really like how the current tutorial in Death’s Lair feels, and our fancy data charts prove that most new players like this too. However, after that, it’s clear that players weren’t keen on the Void attack on Dragon Watch. So, we will be removing that map (after this live playtest) and use a new approach that is more reflective of the general gameplay and tone of the AQ3D.



Taking place right after leaving Death’s Lair, you will enter a brand new map to learn more of the gameplay basics. Encounter various NPCs who are more than happy to help a new hero learn how to build the skills they need to be successful before moving on to the city of Battleon.

So, get ready to view the game through a newb’s eyes and help us playtest the tutorial live!
Talk to Twilly in Battleon to join the new map and play through the same quest line that new players will experience as we teach you to switch classes, use travel forms, and more! Then please fill out the feedback survey from Twilly when you complete the questline so we can make adjustments for the final version.


The monsters in this new area have a chance to drop an assortment of new cosmetic items perfect for starting a new adventure.



New Promo Item releases on Thursday, February 1st, 2024, so if you haven’t gotten the Frosty Torrent Rune Blade from the Upgrade Shop, now is the time!

February 1st brings a new promo item to the Upgrade Shop, and next week we celebrate the Lunar New Year!

See you in game and…
Battle On!

Loremaster Hazel has made more progress in her research about the Cosmic Raiment! Journey to the highest heights of far away places as you follow Hazel’s cryptic clues.



Once you have solved the clues and brought back evidence, Hazel will be able to piece together a pattern to craft the Cosmic Cloak. With a little more sleuthing you can gather additional materials to ‘awaken’ the Cloak into a more Epic and stylish piece.
 
Loremaster Hazel has been researching a long-forgotten cosmic being that once roamed the lands of Lore. The writings she uncovered contain clues on how to unearth the remnants of this being, specifically the materials used to create its clothes and gear which Hazel calls the Cosmic Raiment. Additional special materials can be gathered to ‘awaken’ the pieces of the raiment to make them.



Hazel awakened this Cosmic Companion during her initial expedition and seems to have created a special bond with it. If you choose, it will tag along with you and communicate your research findings back to her.

The Cosmic Companion quest pet allows you to access the Cosmic Raiment quests and quick travel back to the Loremaster’s Lodge with just a click wherever you are! And your pet will always be updated with the release of each new piece.

• Frostval Collection, Gift’thulu, and related seasonal activities will leave around the end of January, 2024
  
• Gaz’s Last Chance Shop closes on January 31st, 2024.

 


We’ve been working on the new player experience and we look forward to releasing a new introduction following Death's Lair next week.

See you in game and…
Battle On!
