Get your Free Wheel of Doom Spins

Everyone loves to get prizes... and that's why everyone in AdventureQuest Worlds will get at least one free spin on the Wheel of Doom per week.

Members get one free spin a day while their upgrade is active
All players get one free spin a week.

Spin the Wheel, Collect Treasures, Choose Your Prize

Each time you spin the Wheel of Doom, you'll get a Treasure Potion to spend in the Doom Merge Shop. Save up 1,000 and you'll be able to buy a Wicked Item of Donated Awesomeness. Each WIoDA lets you choose a rare or valuable item* straight from your account manager.

How to Claim your Prize

Make sure you have a confirmed email address attached to your game account, and then follow these steps:

Decide on the item you want
Log into your Account Manager
Click on the "Awesome Prizes" link on the sidebar
You'll see a list of the IoDA tokens you have available
Choose from a list of ALL the eligible item rewards
You'll be taken to a verification page to confirm your choice

Redeem IoDA tokens to get even MORE bonuses

For each of the first six eligible IoDA tokens you receive , you'll get a FREE Bonus IoDA. The eligible tokens are the Ultimate, Epic, Platinum, Wicked and Golden tokens. After that, you'll get a free Bonus IoDA for every 3 eligible IoDA you redeem, with no maximum stack. So if you have that dream set of gear you want to create... now you'll be able to.

After you redeem your...

1st IoDA, you'll unlock 1 free bonus IoDA
2nd IoDA, you'll unlock 1 free bonus IoDA
3rd IoDA, you'll unlock 1free bonus IoDA
4th IoDA, you'll unlock 1 free bonus IoDA
5th IoDA, you'll unlock 1 free bonus IoDA
6th IoDA, you'll unlock 1 free bonus IoDA

Then, for every 3 IoDA you redeem, you'll unlock another free bonus IoDA.

After you redeem your...

7th, 8th, and 9th IoDA, you'll unlock 1 free bonus IoDA
10th, 11th, and 12th IoDA, you'll unlock 1 free bonus IoDA

And so on. The 3:1 bonus IoDA ratio starts after you get your first 6 free BIoDA, regardless of when you received them. (Example: if you've redeemed a total of 21 IoDA tokens, you'll unlock 11 BIoDA total. The first 6 BIoDA at a 1:1 ratio, and then 5 more at the 3:1 ratio.)

* Exceptions include staff personal items, custom weapon contest prizes, HeroMart items, etc

This Weekend: Summon the Arcana

Battle to Unlock Darkon's Class, New Rewards, and more

This weekend, our Spring updates continue with more rewards, wicked rares, and Darkon's new class! Log in now and begin to battle to collect ALL THE GEAR in Darkon's Garden, Astravia, and the new /Arcana map.

New Game Update

New Class: Darkon's Arcana Invoker end-game class
Rewards of Madness: new gear for all players in the Garden + other Astravian zones
Treasure Chest: Urban Dragon Warrior set + Battlegear of Madness
Featured Gear: Urban Dragon Warrior set, Fa's Bunny Gear + more

Weekend Daily Gifts & Boosts

Server Boost: double Class Points, Gold, Reputation, and XP boost
Saturday: permanent Undead Pwny Pet, member-only BattlePet, & guard
Sunday: Wings of Debris from La in /astraviajudge

How to Obtain the Class

If you are at least level 80, Arcana Invoker can be unlocked by obtaining 22 different Arcana related items and turning in their respective quests. There are two ways to obtain these items:

Create each one in a merge shop using new and existing items.
Merge Darkon and/or King Drago Insignias for Arcana's Debris, which can then be used to create the Arcana items.

Each Arcana's Debris will cost either 1 Darkon or King Drago Insignia, and if you are only using Arcana's Debris to obtain the class, you will need a total of 80.

Note: The farming methods aren't mutually exclusive. If you want to get some of the Arcana items through merge shop farming but others with Arcana's Debris, go right ahead!

Arcana Invoker Details

Arcana Invoker is an endgame two target farming and solo DPS class that revolves around summoning all 22 aspects of the Arcana, starting with The Fool, then ending with The World.

Arcana Invoker will be acquired at rank 1, like other classes. Previously, we thought it could be acquired at rank 5, but an issue is currently preventing this. The class will not have a rank 4 passive in the traditional sense, but its rank 10 passive provides more effects than the average one to make up for it.

Class Shop

Arcana Invoker Class + Armor
Arcana Voyager
Arcana Conduit + Mask helms
Arcana Wings
Arcana Particle pet
Arcana Fragment ground rune
Anagenesis Sword (single + dual-wield)
The Chariot's Claw
The Chariot's Gauntlet (single + dual-wield)

Rewards of Madness

As a show of gratitude for your service, the Arcana guides you on their own personal journey - one that will lead to transformation, and harnessing the power of the Primordial. You'll need to be level 80 to begin farming the Arcana Invoker Class, but we've dark new gear for EVERY hero this weekend! Battle monsters in the /Garden, /Astravia, and /Astraviajudge for wicked reward drops.
