Celebrate 2023: Year of the Rabbit

[h2]Happy Lunar New Year![/h2]
This year’s lunar zodiac animal is the Rabbit. In Chinese culture, rabbits symbolize the moon because the shadows of the moon resemble a rabbit. Our team has created several items with these themes in mind.

Read on to find out what they are and where to get them…
 


[h2]Saber’s Lunar New Year Shops[/h2]
[h3]Lunar New Year Shop[/h3]
  • The Hare's Blade of Fate [weapon]
  • Rabbit Cheongsam [armor]
  • Rabbit Changshan [armor]


[h3]Moonlight Shop[/h3]
Saber will trade you these special items for delicious Moonlight Biscuits from Darkovia. Moonlight Biscuits drop from monsters all around Darkovia this February, including the dungeons.
  • Sticky Dumpling [consumable travel form]
  • Lucky Golden Earrings [helm]
  • The Hare's Lucky Katar [weapon]
  • The Hare's Auspicious Blade [weapon]
  • The Hare's Prosperous Voulge [weapon]
  • The Hare’s Charm [use to get “Lucky Rabbit’s Foot” title]

 
[h2]Lucky Envelope Daily[/h2]
Turn in 5 Moonlight Biscuits for a Lucky Envelope and some Firecrackers! This is based on the real life tradition of giving red envelopes during the Lunar New Year celebrations which symbolize good wishes and luck for the future. Red envelopes usually contain money, so these Lucky Envelopes can be sold for 5000 gold.
 


[h2]Strange Happenings in Darkovia[/h2]
Strange visitors are drawn to Darkovia’s Forest this Lunar New Year. Keep an eye out for anything strange and report back to Saber with your findings.



[h2]Horn of Hype Hotfix[/h2]
The Horn of Hype had an issue where Party Blaze could be Stunned and Silenced making him unable to spawn anything. The hotfix went out on the same day, however, those who purchased the Horn of Hype before the fix have been reimbursed with a new Horn of Hype in their inventory. Blaze on!

Blaze's Bonfire Returns!

[h2]Who is Blaze?[/h2]


"A long time ago the raw element of fire was threatening to consume the world in flames. Blaze sacrificed his body to control the flame, imbuing him with the power to control fire, ensuring it does not consume the world. The flame slowly burns away at his body and when he uses his power, there are severe consequences. He wants to be a light to the world, but the brighter he burns, the shorter his wick."

Blaze in real life is a programmer and game designer for AdventureQuest 3D. His passion is in class design and enhancing the social aspects of our game.



[h2]Battleon is a Bonfire[/h2]
There is a Blaze in the Social District. Actually, there are FOUR different forms of Blaze to fight. As usual, talk to Rose to earn Social Flyers for Social Event Prizes. Plus, Blaze has a Daily quest “Illuminate the Shadow” which gives 100 BlazeCoins for completing it. You may also get lucky and receive the rare Chibi Blaze Pet as a drop.



In Battleon, Blaze has shops full of goodies to buy. The BlazeCoin Gift Shop has lots of hot weapons and armor sets, including 1 new armor set and 4 new weapons. You can also get BlazeCoins by defeating Gifting Inferno and Gifting Fire.

Blaze’s Birthday Shop has all of the same things as the Gift Shop but with a few extras, and everything here costs DragonCrystals. The Birthday Shop exclusive items are the Summoning items:
  • Horn of Hype (NEW! Summons “Party Blaze”)
  • Fire Starter (Summons “Gifting Fire”)
  • Wide Blaze’s Calling Card (Summons “Wide Blaze”)




[h2]Horn of Hype[/h2]
The latest of Blaze’s summoning items. Use the Horn of Hype, Fire Starter, and Wide Blaze Calling Card to summon an enemy for your fellow players to fight.

Use the Horn of Hype to summon a Party Blaze which, itself, summons up to 6 Firestarters, or something even more special. While Party Blaze is invincible, all spawns killed do drop loot. Party Blaze despawns after he has reached his summoning maximum.

For more detailed information on the Bonfire, read this post from the first Blaze’s Bonfire event.



[h2]Anime Opening Video Contest[/h2]
Make an anime opening video using the Tailor Scouts theme song for the chance to win one of 3 Emperor's Chests and a badge! Or make a digital Tailor Scouts poster for the chance to win one of 5 Warlord's Chests. Submissions accepted until February 8th.

See the full post for details.

1.94.3 Hotfix Notes

- Updated app icon and loading screens
- Various other minor fixes

Winnie's Tailor Scout Adventure!

Battleon’s Seamstress Extraordinaire has magical new clients… the Tailor Scouts! These powerful mages have an epic battle waiting for them on the moon; but, first, they need some improvements. Help Winnie gather the best materials to get the Scouts battle ready.

[h2]Winnie’s Magical Clients[/h2]
The Tailor Scouts have come to Battleon’s best tailor, Winnie, for new combat outfits. They are preparing for an epic fight and their current clothes are a bit battle worn. However, time is running out and Winnie is still short on materials. It’s all hands on deck. Will you help the Tailor Scouts gather the rest of the materials they need?
[h2]


The Epic Battle![/h2]
There’s nothing wrong with a little extra help. At least, that’s what Winnie thinks. You’ve proven yourself very capable, so she’d like you to join the Tailor Scouts in their big fight. They are going to eradicate the Xenoscythe invasion on the Moon.

Plus, Jongaar wrote an anime-inspired soundtrack just for this release.
 


Winnie herself drew this recreation of the Tailor Scouts.
 


[h2]Tailor Scout Gear[/h2]
You’re an honorary Tailor Scout, thanks to all of your help! Collect the Glitter that appears when you defeat a Xenoscythe enemy and bring it back to Tailor Scout Melanie. With enough, you can get a full Tailor Scout outfit and a matching Sword or Wand, or both!



[h2]Blaze a Trail of Friendship[/h2]
For a handful of DragonCrystals, you can have a magical travel trail in one of the colors of the Tailor Scouts, or even a rainbow trail with the most powerful magic of all: Friendship.

Which color will you choose?
  • Emerald
  • Tourmaline
  • Ruby
  • Sapphire
  • Topaz
  • Friendship (Rainbow)


[h2]Dragon Crystal Bonus Extended![/h2]
We don’t want the Bonus to end… There’s no such thing as too much of a good thing, right? Get 50% extra DragonCrystals with your purchase from the Upgrade Shop while the bonus is on!
