Chaorruption Continues!
Return to The Span Friday for a lesson in Chaos!
Fiery dungeons, legendary heroes, and a ChickenCow in a TOGA?! How is THAT supposed to teach you about being a Hero? As the Chaorruption continues to grow stronger, will you be able to gain the knowledge you need to know before Chaos completely infects the your Professor?
Find pseudo-Falconreach, Ash has much to teach you!
If you haven't started our current Chaos Saga storyline, /join thespan to begin learning why you are here... and what your destiny is! But hurry, because your teacher is the Chaos Lord, and he is quickly losing control over his sanity!
Prepare for Cluck-cluck-DOOM in Zeuster's Temple!
When Chaos turns your classroom into an endlessly-confusing maze of fire and doomstone, you'll want to grab a pencil and paper and map your adventure... or you may NEVER find your way out!
And Then Check Out the Rest of Our Release!
- The new Book of Lore
- Improvements to the new Tutorial
- The Golden DrAEgon Statue house item receives its quest and reward
- The Guild PTR Tester Reward: the Guilded Scythe
(Bonus points to AracnidAQW for suggesting the "Guilded"/"Gilded" pun!)
Shops Leaving This Friday!
- Mogloween: maps, quests, and seasonal rares shops
- OverSoul Shop in Battleon
- Alina + Rolith Wedding event: maps, quests, and rares shop
- Death's Rares shop
Leaving November 16th!
- The Committed/One-Eyed Doll event rares shop leaves
(The Committed map and quests will remain. Find them in Darkovia!) - The Secret Underground Lab map leaves (for now!)
- This is the LAST day to farm the quests and earn resources to buy the Chunin Class!
(You can still purchase the Chunin Class from Itzachi in Battleon until NEXT year)
Wait, What About the Sword of the Legion Shop?!
If you held onto your Sword of the Legion from this Summer's Dage vs Nulgath war, you'll be excited to learn we haven't forgotten about the shop it is supposed to unlock in Shadowfall! That will come sometime during December, after we release Frostval!
We've got Two New Assistant Artists!
We've brought on TWO new assistant artists, and they have already begun contributing to the weekly releases! Welcome Vokun and Tyronius to the team! You'll see even more of their work as the weeks go by. We're excited to have them join the team at such an AExciting time of the year!
You Are All Awesome!
Over the past week, we've received a lot of very helpful feedback for improving the new tutorial. You guys are directly influencing how new players will be introduced to AQWorlds, and that means helping your future /party or /guild members understand the game and how to play it better and faster. Thank you so much!
We'd also like to toss out a thank you to the mods and AKs on the forum, where we posted the feedback thread. They work hard to make sure you have a safe, fun environment in which to talk about AQWorlds and the rest of our games.
