October Seasonal Set: ChronoStriker
Available every year from October 1st - 31st
Every October, we celebrate the anniversary of AQWorlds' launch. This year -- our 10th anniversary -- we're showcasing a set that pays homage to the origin of your hero... and their future. AQWorlds was created when Galanoth the DragonSlayer killed the Eternal Dragon of Time* and the 3 original timelines** merged.
October Set: ChronoStriker
The Eternal Dragon of Time rules over the past, present, and future. The ChronoStriker armor will enable you to strike at your enemies regardless of the timeline they inhabit.
There are two ways to get the gear:
1) Total package: Buy the entire set directly through the website for $9.99 USD
2) Individually: Buy each of the individual pieces from Garek the Traveling Gear Merchant in Battleon.
The total cost to buy all of the gear individually is 4,000 ACs, so getting all the gear from the ChronoStriker pack is a pretty sweet deal (you save 2,000 ACs).
The set includes:
- ChronoStriker Armor
- 3 helms
- 4 capes
- 3 weapons
- character page badge
Seasonal Set Details
Each month, we'll feature a new set, available only during that month every year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as the monthly upgrade bonus?
Monthly upgrade bonus gear is an extra reward for buying AdventureCoin or Membership packages. Seasonal set packs are bought separately. Just like the Flame Dragon Warrior pack, you can buy the entire set directly, for one price, on our site. You can ALSO buy the individual pieces in-game.
This set will return EVERY October, so if you can't get it now, you'll have another chance in 2019, or 2020, or 2021, etc.
If this isn't the monthly upgrade bonus, what IS the bonus in October?
The current upgrade bonuses are the Guardian of Time sets. These brave warriors defend the timestreams from those who would corrupt them, or use them for their own nefarious purposes. Get more details here.
What if I just want ONE of the items?
You're in luck! Talk to Garek in Battleon. He'll be selling the individual pieces of the set through October 31st.
Where do I get my gear if I buy the full set through the website?
You'll find it in your Book of Lore.
* To see this in-game, /join thespan and play through the 10th Chaos Lord's story, Iadoa the Chronomancer. Your hero may experience deja vu upon seeing the Eternal Dragon of Time. It is perfectly normal. Do not be alarmed.
** Based on the first three Artix Entertainment games, AdventureQuest, DragonFable, and MechQuest.

September Seasonal Shop
Available every year from September 1st - 30th
September is coming soon, and that means... pirates and parties! YARRRRRR! Every September, we celebrate Talk Like a Pirate Day and celestial AQW Artist Aranx's birthday. And this year, we're combining those two great themes to kick off a new monthly shop.
Each month, we'll feature a new set, available only during that month each year. There will be two different ways to get the gear from these sets:
1) Total package: Get the entire set and a character page badge for $9.99 USD
2) Individually: Buy each of the individual pieces from Garek the Traveling Gear Merchant in Battleon.
September Set: Celestial Naval Commander
Remember to keep your wings tightly furled when on deck to avoid getting tangled in the lines. But if the ship starts to sink, you'll be GLAD to have them as you fly to safety!
The set includes:
- Celestial Naval Commander armor
- 2 helms
- 2 capes: 1 set of wings, 1 parrot cape
- 5 cutlasses
- 1 Parrot Pet
The total cost to buy all of the gear individually is 4,000 ACs, so getting all the gear from the Celestial Naval Commander pack is a pretty sweet deal (you save 2,000 ACs).
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as the monthly upgrade bonus?
No, this is a different set. Just like the Flame Dragon Warrior, you can buy the entire set for one price on our site. You can ALSO buy the individual pieces in-game.
This set will return EVERY September, so if you can't get it now, you'll have another chance in 2019, or 2020, or 2021, etc.
Think of this like a carousel of gear. Every January, we'll have the January set. Every February, we'll feature the February set. The monthly upgrade bonuses will be separate and distinct bonuses.
If this isn't the monthly upgrade bonus, what IS the bonus in September?
The next upgrade bonus releases on September 7th, and is the Infernal Naval Commander. It will go rare at the end of the month.
What if I just want ONE of the items?
You're in luck! Talk to Garek in Battleon. He'll be selling the individual pieces of each month's sets.
Where do I get my gear if I buy the full set through the website?
You'll find it in your Book of Lore.
Is this the same as Tier 1 for the new upgrade package?
The seasonal sets are separate from the monthly upgrade bonuses, and won't impact the gear you get with them. The monthly upgrade packs will still have Tier 1 and Tier 2 options.
