New Year's Gift!

[h2]Happy 2023![/h2]
Ring in the new year with our gift to you – 30 more inventory slots. Head to Upgrade Shop to load up on more DragonCrystals to get this month’s new promo item, then talk to Gaz in Battleon for a last chance to get promo items from previous years.



[h2]Our Gift to You[/h2]
Everyone’s inventory space is getting an increase. This is our gift to you! Everyone gets 30 more slots. Guardians also get an additional 10 for a total of 40 new slots. This increase now makes the base inventory 90 total slots for all future players as well.

Note: Due to the app stores not being able to finish the review process in time, the inventory expansion has been delayed. The changes will go live as soon as it is approved.
 


[h2]Gaz’s Last Chance Shop[/h2]
Gaz has collected all of the regular (non-Guardian) promo items from the past two years and put them in a shop. Now is your chance to get any regular promo item you missed out on. Gaz is offering these items for a flat fee of 1,000 Dragon Crystals. The Last Chance Shop is only open for a limited time and will leave his stall on January 31st. The promo items from 2021 and 2022 will then become Legacy.

Reminder: Guardians cam always purchase any Guardian-only promo item they missed from Fortes in his "Special Guardian Rewards" shop with Guardian Class Tokens.



[h2]January 2023 Promo Item: Axe of Nulgore[/h2]
Forged in the Furious Fires of Mount Nulgore. This Axe holds the rage and fury of Nulgath and his followers.
The Axe of Nulgore is included with all packages from the Upgrade Shop, including Guardian and Lore Strider. Guardian packages also give the Toxic Axe of Nulgore. Check your inventory on your next log in after purchase.

Note: All accounts that had made a purchase from the Upgrade Shop prior to this update on January 1st, 2023, were retroactively awarded these items.

Lolosia Saga: Atlantis Finale

Are you ready for the final boss fight of the year? Join us in AQ3D to complete the entire Lolosia Saga. Complete the Sea God’s Trident and reach the new level cap of 42! Plus, we’re preparing for the New Year’s Eve Live Events.



[h2]The Shipyard (Dungeon)[/h2]
King Nautilus will help repair the trident but Atlantis will be vulnerable to the Sea Ogres with him being distracted by this task. Find the Shipyard and stop the Sea Ogre incursions once and for all. Inside this dungeon you will battle your way through Sea Ogres, dangerous sea animals, and… darkness.

Hint: Look for the sand paths and use pools of Light to combat the Darkness.



[h2]The Sea God Rises (Boss Fight)[/h2]
Race to the water’s surface to face the Sea God once the trident has been reforged. Amongst the debris of shipwrecks, avoid the Sea God’s tentacles and combat his powerful attacks with help from your friends. You must find a way to subdue him to bring peace to all who sail, and live in, the sea.
Talk to Aquella to replay the story version of this fight, or play the level 40 Challenge with up to 10 of your fellow players.

Note: There is also a chance to pick up a Coral Headpiece which resembles Atlantean Water Elf ears.



[h2]Aqua Soldier Gear (Level 40+)[/h2]
You can obtain pieces of Aqua Soldier gear from the Shipyard and the Sea God fight. However, Sulfin has returned to his shop with Kenai in the city of Atlantis. They have shops to help you acquire missing pieces and upgrade their power stats, if you like. 

[h2]King Nautilus Set (Cosmetic)[/h2]
The Royal Guards know how you can get your hands on a set of King Nautilus’s clothing. Earn enough Royal Favor to persuade the palace tailors to let you take home a set of your own. 



[h2]2022 Frostval Collection[/h2]
Huzzah, it’s here! Visit Blizzy in Battleon or in the town of Winter’s Grasp to get the 2022 Frostval Collection now. Buy the Collector’s Chest and get the title “Frosted”.



[h2]Elvira is Preparing to Leave AQ3D[/h2]
Elvira has moved next to the Travel Portal in preparation to leave the game. All access to 20th Anniversary content has moved with her and is only available on Elvira now. When Artix finishes his Live Events on New Year’s Eve, Elvira and all of the 20th Anniversary content will be removed. The individual mini-game maps will return to the game permanently after we have done some re-working to completely remove some of our special guests from the content. 20th Anniversary Troves will be able to be completed when the maps return. 

For more information, read Artix’s design notes post.



[h2]Ring in 2023 with Artix[/h2]
Artix will be back for his New Year’s Eve Live Events to ring in 2023 around the world. This year he will only be able to host 3 Live Events, but we encourage you all to ring in the new year with your friends in AQ3D as well. 

Also, go get your New Year’s gift from Artix’s Holiday Presents shop.

[h2]Winter’s Grasp[/h2]
Start a new Frostval adventure in the town of Winter’s Grasp. A haven for all creatures, Winter’s Grasp invites you to join their celebration. Meet the residents and find out what makes this town so special.

You can also find your way to the original Frostval event maps and dungeons with Blizzy here in Winter’s Grasp and in Battleon.



[h2]Mayor Kayne[/h2]
The mayor is busy getting ready for the big celebration. Everyone is welcome. Care to lend a hand? And maybe you can help him find out what is behind the mysterious beast sightings recently. Word seems to have spread and drawn the attention of Hale, a monster hunter.



[h2]The Monster of Mount Scrunch[/h2]
Hale is certain the reports of the beast sightings point to werewolves, but Mayor Kayne is not convinced. Follow the beast up Mount Scrunch and learn what this beast is once and for all.



[h2]Mount Scrunch Rewards[/h2]
Your hard work isn’t for nothing. The various beasts on Mount Scrunch have loot hidden up there. As you battle your way to the mountaintop, you may get some of these awesome rewards.



[h2]Hale’s Winter’s Grasp Rewards[/h2]
Return to Hale to get similar monster hunting armor pieces made with the green fur of the monster and a couple new weapons.



[h2]The Frozen Artifact[/h2]
Hale would like you to retrace your steps to be sure we know the truth about the monster of Mount Scrunch. Help her out and you’ll obtain an elusive frozen artifact, the Holly Jolly Head Splitter. This item will become Legacy (unobtainable) after Frostval leaves around January 25, 2023. Get it while you can!
