The battle rages on between the Blackthorn Fleet and the Midori Kage… this week brings the penultimate chapter of the Pirate vs Ninja War storyline. Join your faction leader and explore an ancient abandoned temple in search of the mysterious voice that called them to this island…


We released the Doom Ninja class skin last week and received feedback on the colors being a bit too bright so we are releasing a new version of it free of charge to go along with the original. Thanks for your continued support and feedback.


With the war drawing to its conclusion, a horrible force has influenced the Island of the Titans. Doom energy has spread from the temple and contaminated the world around it… Heroic pirates and ninjas across the battlefield have fallen to a bloodlust-filled rage and are now turning on each other… There’s only one way to set things right… continue the battle next week and purify the land of Doom’s influence.

The drums of war continue in this week’s AdventureQuest 3D release. Both the Blackthorn Fleet and the Midori Kage Clan are locked into a conflict that threatens to wipe out both factions. Head over to Lolosia and speak to Yara Hara to start the questline which will result in you picking a side to fight for. For those of you returning from last week, you’ll find a new chapter of the storyline has opened up with unique story moments for both sides. Additionally, new housing shops have opened up at each faction’s provisioner. Salty Sally for the Blackthorn Fleet and Kikishi for the Midori Kage.


This year’s Talk Like a Pirate Day Collection is mixing things up a little bit! We are doing two class skins with a pet and travel form that have two different variants each. One is pirate-themed, while the other is ninja-themed. A little benefit to buying the collection is you won't have to spend class tokens on the armor for the skin. Speak to Gunpowder Marry in Battleon and purchase your collection for 6000 Dragon Crystals. Or, if housing is more your thing check out the new Talk Like a Pirate housing kit.


The ultimate crossover of Talk Like a Pirate Day and Friday the 13th has just happened! The two new class skins being added to AdventureQuest 3D are the Doom Pirate and the Doom Ninja. Embrace your inner darkness and use unique DOOOOOOM-themed attacks for fan-favorite classes.


The storyline of this evolving conflict will continue as the war goes on but don’t forget… So do the rewards! The more of the meter your faction fills the more rewards that will be available to you!

Past Talk Like a Pirate Day collections have returned, speak to Gun Powder Marry to take a look at the previous collections.


Our September promo item are the Draconic Dread Cannons! To get this menacing dragon gun, just purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages.

The winds of war blow once again across Lore. A tale of revenge and duty is about to unfold. The Blackthorn Fleet, a group of fierce pirates led by Captain Mordred Blackthorn, demands the head of Master Kurohane, the leader of the Midori Kage ninja clan, to avenge the death of Mordred’s only son, Arthur Blackthorn. With tensions higher than ever, a mysterious voice calls to Mordred, offering a chance to avenge his son by summoning him to the Island of Titans with promises of power. Unbeknownst to him, Ninja Master Kurohane is also heeding a similar call, one that warns of a calamity threatening his clan but offers a way to prevent it. It’s time to pick a side, brave hero of Lore. Travel to the Island of Titans and fight for the cause you believe in!


The Blackthorn Fleet is a formidable group of pirates feared by the people of Lolosia. They believe in a life of freedom, unshackled by society’s rules, as free as the wind that blows across the ocean. Unfortunately for those around them, this means they steal and do as they please.


A secretive ninja clan with a long history, the Midori Kage have outposts across the Mysterious Islands. Over the years, they have accumulated many valuable treasures and relics. The Midori Kage value tradition and honor and do not take kindly to outsiders trespassing in their territory.


The AdventureQuest 3D war system has been completely revamped. Previously, you had to turn in quests to gain progress for the war meter, with all quests counting for the same amount of progress. Now, you can gain progress for your faction’s war meter through various means. Killing monsters, summoning additional troops, and even repairing structures can all contribute to filling up the meter and can be worth different amounts. Additionally, for this war, we are experimenting with a dual storyline, updating the story of the ongoing conflict weekly, so don’t forget to check back!


By completing quests, defeating enemy units, and fishing, you can gather materials to turn in with your faction’s NPCs in exchange for items to spawn the reinforcements of your choice.


As the war meter fills up for your faction, you will be able to earn more rewards, including pets, travel forms, armors, and weapons. This time, the items you can unlock are themed around the specific faction you are fighting for.


With it being Friday the 13th Camp Gonnagetcha has opened up once more! Head on over to Yulgar’s Inn and speak to Dottie, the High Archcounseler to book your trip to Campe Gonnagetcha while it’s still open.


Our September promo item are the Draconic Dread Canons! To get this menacing dragon gun, just purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages. For those that get one of the Guardian upgrade packages, you will also get the Draconic Canons at no extra cost.


Next week, the war continues with an expanding plot unique to both factions. And of course, the Talk Like a Pirate Day collection will arrive! This collection will be themed around the war and feature two new class skins: the Doom Pirate and the Doom Ninja.

A strange… person?... has shown up in the town of Battleon this week. If you head over to the Barber Shop you will find Hatrick, the Man of Hats. Hatrick, as you might guess really enjoys hats. He’s obsessed with them in fact. He travels the land in search of rare hats to add to his hat collection, however. This time he needs your help to obtain a hat. Travel to the Hat Tomb and grab it for him. Obviously, this is a simple task for a hero such as yourself.


Once you’ve helped Hatrick out a little you’ll be able to obtain hats from him and.. Horns? Hat-orns…? Collect Powerful Hat Essence from all monsters in the zones. You can also earn Powerful Hat Essence by running the 3 Daily Quests that Hatrick will have available to help you along the way.


Hatrick also has Travel Forms and Pets?!… They wear hats so no rules are being broken with this theme!


In our ongoing effort to tune classes and put more fun and power in the hands of the player, we’ve made some changes to both the Pirate and Ninja classes, giving them some AoE.

• Pirate: Flak Shot is now an AoE
  
• Ninja: Both Slashing Gale and Fire Strike are now AoEs

Our September promo item is the Draconic Dread Cannons! To get this menacing dragon gun, just purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages. For those that get one of the Guardian upgrade packages, you will also get the Draconic Cannons at no extra cost.


Next week the Pirate vs Ninja war begins! We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to create a new war using feedback from the Invasion From the Deep. One of these changes is how the War Meter is progressed. Originally, you would only get a set amount from turning in a quest… Any quest. We’ve worked hard to change that system to allow you to earn varying amounts of progress so harder quests will fill the meter faster. But, it doesn’t stop there! These updates to the war system go beyond allowing different quests to have varying impacts on the war effort. Kills and other actions can now count towards filling up that bar. We look forward to seeing you on the battlefield!

This week we’re adding a new boss to the social district along with two new shops. A dog-themed onesie shop to match the cats. These shops will use all the same materials as the cat day shop so if you have any leftover materials you’re in luck!


The BIG DOG has been let loose in the social district joining the Vicious Cat as a social boss that drops Bits of Pet Fur. You can use these totally not gross tokens to get cat and dog-themed onesies from Not Alma in the social district.


Just like Cat Day you will be able to earn “Bit of Pet Fur” tokens from defeating the bosses in the social district to turn in to Not Alma for fluffy pet themed rewards.


We’ve also added some dog-themed housing items using the usual housing item materials.


Woohoo! For one week we will be running a 150% XP and Class XP boost to assist in your adventures. Grind hard, heroes!


It’s the last chance for our August promo items, the Azurecrest Cape and Shield! To get this regal shield, just purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages. Those who already have or decide to purchase one of the Guardian upgrade packages will also get the Shadow Azurecrest Cape and Shield at no extra cost.


We'll be showcasing our first AQ3D Guild tomorrow! The AQW Guild "Hero" stole the spotlight today and we are thrilled to see such creativity and community spirit. Share your Guild’s story and some screenshots for a chance to be featured on our Design Notes. Additionally, we're excited to announce the upcoming Pirate vs Ninja War event for Talk Like a Pirate Day, featuring new Doom weapons and class skins. Furthermore, our team has started work on a new Saga, and AQ3D will soon see a new homepage, too!

This week players will meet up with Bob-O once again and learn more about the Azurecrest Lance. Travel to a mysterious island that once was a home for both Water Elves and early Lolosian settlers. Uncover it’s dark history and eventually empower your Azurecrest Lance into one of two new powerful Spellforged weapons.


The Azurecrest armor is but one of the rewards you’ll find on your adventures. This statted rare quality gear will be an alternative way to get caught up if you’re feeling a little behind in gearing.


One of the two upgrade paths you can choose for the Azurecrest lance is Redemption. This regal weapon has the power to call down lightning dealing high damage to the enemy struck.


The alternative is Scorn, a loathsome shadowy weapon that drains the life force of your enemies healing you with every strike. The choice is yours to make, but don’t feel too bad you can eventually create the opposite weapon to the one you chose as the boss at the end of the Azurecrest Lance’s storyline has a chance to drop more.


Last week I released a statement about an error I made in releasing an item that was supposed to be reserved to players who purchased the Primal Orb Pet. As promised we are providing a shop attached to the Primal Orb Pet that will give you access to a Fiend Cape of Nulgath without the requirement of any Lost Fragments of Nulgath. Additionally, I had asked Dage to craft an exclusive version of the game known as the Primal Fiend Cape of Nulgath which will also be in the shop for no additional cost.


I’m really excited to share some information on what we’ve got cooking. The team is hard at work creating a unique Talk Like a Pirate Day event this year. But, this isn’t your typical Talk Like a Pirate Day affair. As a long-time fan of Artix Entertainment and the original AdventureQuest, I’m super excited to announce we are working on a Pirate vs Ninja War for this year’s Talk Like a Pirate Day. Splinter factions within the two groups have formed and seek to put an end to the opposing side once and for all. However, this desire for destruction has awoken an ancient evil from deep within the Mysterious Isles. A new island emerges from the sea and an unseen voice calls out to the war-hungry leaders of both factions. Whispers of ancient weapons of unparalleled destruction can be theirs, an ultimate solution to their problems… DOOM to the opposing faction.

The Pirate vs Ninja War introduces two new DOOM weapons into AdventureQuest 3D. Along with two new Class Skins. It’s with great pleasure that I announce the Doom Pirate and Doom Ninja, we’ve been working on this stuff in the background for a while now and the team is really excited for you guys to get your hands on this sometime in September.


We’ve begun work on a new Saga about a month ago. I can’t say too much about it yet, but I’d like to show you early progress.


Our August promo item is the Azurecrest Cape and Shield! To get this regal shield, just purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages. For those that get one of the Guardian upgrade packages, you will also get the Shadow Azurecrest Cape and Shield at no extra cost.

This week in AdventureQuest 3D players we’ve added the unreleased Nulgath items to the Oversoul. Head on over to talk to Poniard in the Forge of the Forlorn to access a shop containing lost Nulgath items.


Two armor sets, both obtainable through farming the new token which drops off monsters all over the Oversoul or via doing 3 new daily quests that involve fighting the current 3 big bosses in AdventureQuest 3D.


One of the two new travel forms added this patch is Skratch, the DOOM KITTY for Dragon Crystals. But Skratch is not alone…


The Vicious Overgrown Cat is also obtainable for Dragon Crystals in the new shop.


Apocalys was an unreleased sword made by Dage, it was a shame for this weapon to lay dormant in the vault so not only are we releasing it. We’ve made it into a level 50 Spellforged weapon.


Finally, we… uh, ripped apart our Gnome-y friend and turned his parts into items you can earn from Gnome Berries


Our August promo item is the Azurecrest Cape and Shield! To get this regal shield, just purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages.

Cat Day returns to Adventure Quest 3D this week bringing with it items from the past, purresent, and furr-ture? Sorry, I tried! But yes items appreciating our soft little friends will be returning to the game as well as a boss in the social district!


A… weird creature joins in the celebration….? Next to Aria you can speak to “Not Alma” to purchase Cat Onesies, how cute! Some will be earnable through collecting bits of cat fur from the boss while others are purchasable through Dragon Crystals. BUT THATS NOT ALL…

Not Alma contains another shop containing some cat-themed related housing items… including a “Sand Box” for cats… I’m sure you can figure out what that is.

More importantly, however, you will be able to get some sleeping kitties for your house.


We’ve heard the feedback from players about wanting a permanent version of the MIni Doddery the Gnome travel form. Your cries for help have been answered!

Doddery the Gnome has made his presence known across Lore by being a bit of a nuisance. You can find him in Warlic’s Magic Shoppe where he has a nifty little shop. But, If you find him in a daily boss map you can fight him for some extra goodies. Both the Travel Form and Pet will be obtainable through gameplay or can be purchased with Dragon Crystals.


Starting this week during the intro in Death’s Lair, Death will award you with a stone that unlocks the Blue-Eyed Soul Dragon Travel Form and Pet. But fear not existing heroes! If you return to Death’s Lair via the Travel Menu, you can unlock the Blue-Eye Soul Dragon for yourself. To be clear, the Blue-Eyed Soul Dragon is free for all players.


The Legendary Oracle set arrives in all of its mystical glory! Achieve Rank 50 with the Oracle to unlock this vibrant appearance. We can’t wait to see the awesome screenshots you’ll share on socials!


Woohoo! For one week we will be running a 150% XP and Class XP boost to assist in your adventures. Grind hard, heroes!
