Frostval, New Emotes, Speech Bubbles, and... players spawning Gift Bushes!?
[h2]It's that time of year again. It's Frostval![/h2]
Happy Frostval! New emotes, speech bubbles, players gift spawning bushes with loot, and the return of Blizzy the Frostmoglin and our seasonal areas... let the wintery madness begin.
[h2]Seasonal Frostval areas are now open![/h2]
Find Blizzy the Frostval Moglin at the Travel Portal and you'll find...
- Frostval Labyrinth - Quick travel to the Frostval Holiday map, complete with story, dungeons, and special crafts.
- Frostlorn Raiders - Quick travel to the front of this seasonal dungeon in Frostvale.
- Previous collections are back! You can purchase the items from these collections individually.
Also...
- Seasonal items are back in your daily treasure chests!
- You can head to the storyline of Frostval too!
[h2]Speech Bubbles![/h2]
Yes! Yes! Yes! I have wanted this feature forever. By default, you will now see speech bubbles above players heads then whey talk. (And yes, you can turn this off in the options. Very thoughtful of the devs to always allow us to immediately turn off their new features XD)
[h2]New Emotes[/h2]
Everyone is saying their favorite is /sus ... you can also access these all on your emotes menu.
- /sus
- /lol
- /honor
- /nod
- /cheer
[h2]Players are summoning Bush monsters that drop loot?[/h2]
How and why are players summoning bushes full of loot!? It's the giving season... and what screams "holiday gifting" more than spawning hostile shrubbery for your friends and fellow heroes?

[h2]Happy Frostval![/h2]
Hope you have been enjoying our releases and looking forward to the new things that are coming up. Some of the most interesting things seem to happen in-between our big releases while the animators and map builders are doing the part that takes longer. We are very grateful that you are a part of our video game community and with more devs logging on the live server than ever.... I really hope to see you in game.
Battle on!
Artix, Glisel, and the AdventureQuest 3D Team
P.S. We've updated the Battleon Chess "Gamemaster" title to "Chess Gamemaster"... just in case ;)
