11-11-11 Portal OPENS!
Enter the DragonPlane
Not long ago, a large mysterious portal appeared in town. Nobody knew what it was or what would happen when it opened. You will have to verify this with your own eyes.. but it appears to be a gateway to the plane of dragons. The actions you take when you enter, will likely DEFINITELY change OUR world forever. Battle on, Hero!
And if you emerge victorious from freeing Desoloth, you will earn a character page achievement so that all your friends and fellow players will know of your success!
EPIC Gear from Beyond the Portal
Rare and wonderour treasures lie beyond the Portal, but we have a sneak peek ready to entice you, Hero! Get ready for amazing armors and incredible equips... but remember, if you want this wicked gear, you will have to BATTLE ON to get it!
Zellare Armor
By assuming the form of a fire dragon minion, you take on the fury of a dragon's fiery breath and the wisdom of the wyrm's ancient age.
Only the wisest and strongest of Heroes are able to /equip this armor and wield this weapon... but we know YOU are up to the challenge!
Elementalist and Storm Runner Armors
Stand tall, defiant, in the face of the elements! Face down the fury of a storm of dragons ready to devour you! With courage and unshakeable confidence, these armors and items will see you through any challenge Lore can throw at you!
Azure Armor
Water is life - by turns pure, calm, and destructive. Harness the power of the flood in this Azure Armor and you will command not only the ocean, but a tidal wave of allies as you face off against the armies that wish to destroy you and all of Lore!
But that's not all we have for you tonight:
- TWO member-only BATTLE PETS drop from the dragons!
- Four Elemental Chakra weapons
- Four Elemental Septaxe weapons
- The "Wet Look" and "Hot Head" helms
- And SO MUCH more!
The AC shop will be going RARE, including the Member items (so get your gear while it is still here)!
