Desert Ruins Challenge and Sekt's Treasure Vault!



[h2]Defend the Ruins Challenge and Search Sekt's Vault for Zhoom’s Bow[/h2]
Hop on AdventureQuest 3D for a double-dose of fun with the Vault of the Undying King and a replayable challenge version of the Ruins Defense mission from Sandsea Part 5. Plus, you can now craft your own replica of Zhoom’s bow!



[h2]Vault of the Undying King[/h2]
All the treasure that Lord Sekt is hoarding in the Vault of the Undying King isn’t doing anybody any good, so Zhoom wants you to do something about it. But before you venture into the Vault of the Undying King, Rebel Rosen has a request for you while you’re in the vault: Find Zhoom’s bow! Rumor has it that Lord Sekt is stashing Zhoom’s Ancestral Bow inside the vault, and Rosen thinks it is high time for the bow to return to its owner. After all, it’s not like Lord Sekt will notice if something from his vault goes missing… Or will he?
And before you rush into the Vault of the Undying King, be sure to get Rosen’s new repeatable “Vault Hunting” quest to slay any creepy crawling things you find in the vault for their precious carapaces. Completing the quest will award you with Rebels Rubies and Deadly Desert Monster Parts.



[h2]Zhoom’s Make-A-Bow Workshop[/h2]
Craft a replica of Zhoom’s Ancestral Bow! No need for Zhoom to get all the spoils of the Vault of the Undying King. Upon completing the Vault of the Undying King quest chain, you’ll have access to a new Daily Quest that rewards you with the materials needed to create your own Level 35 replica of Zhoom’s bow, one that can be upgraded from Uncommon to Epic quality!



[h2]Desert Ruins Defense Challenge[/h2]
The Voidrakar’s assault on the ruins continues, and the Croc Commander needs the help of you and up to four other allies to fend off wave after wave of Vane’s minions. Keep as many of the Croc Guards alive through this challenge’s Three Rounds, with each round having up to four waves of enemies. The more Croc Guards you can keep alive, the better the rewards you’ll receive at the end. Potions, Bastion Bucks, Titles, and even Rare Pets are yours to be had if you and your allies can defend the ruins from the Voidrakar!



[h2]New Croc Pets![/h2]
Included with this release is a new assortment of Croc Guard Figurine Pets. These autonomous action figures look and move just like the real thing! Kai-Lee is selling General Gaspar and Onyx Croc Guard figurines in her Specialty Pets shop, while the Rookie, Veteran, and Elite Croc Guard Figures are rewards from the Desert Ruins Defense Challenge.



[h2]Coming Soon… The Keeper of Sand’s Pyramid![/h2]
If you enjoyed venturing into the Crocos’ water-themed pyramid, wait until you see what Gar-Feld, the Keeper of Sand, has in store for you. Designed by Aveleon, the Sand Pyramid will test your mettle as you hurry to find your way into Gar-Feld’s Treasure Room for the next piece of the magic lamp. Don’t waste any time while you’re inside… You may not like what happens if you do.

[h2]As Promised... Sub(mitted) Sand Witch Puns[/h2]

@Beastoevil
If the Sand Witch moves fast, that would make her a Quicksand Witch.
@Fire_Knightlord
I think my Sandwich puns are jam-packed so, I've got a butter idea! I'll just come up with a better pun about peanut butter, and jam on toast, but... It might spread. Anyways, I've finished with these puns because all that went straight over my bread!

See you in game...

Sandsea Saga Part 5: Lair of the Sand Witch



[h2]The Sandsea Saga continues with our latest release[/h2]
The search for the magic lamp is underway, but before you can continue your quest, Lord Sekt sends you off to deal with other troubles plaguing the desert...
Since the time you first arrived at Sandsea, something -- or someone -- has been attacking Fahad’s caravans. What malevolent force is behind the attacks, and could it be responsible for other calamities in the Sandsea? But that is not the only conflict you will find in the desert, as the Voidrakar are mounting another assault on the Valley of the Undying King. Will you be able to keep the advancing Voidrakar at bay? Can you solve the mystery behind the caravan attacks? Log in to AdventureQuest 3D to continue the Sandsea Saga part 5 to find out. The Sandsea Saga awaits for all players level 31 and over.



[h2]Voidrakar in the Valley[/h2]
Help Sekt’s guard fight back the Voidrakar who are trying to force their way into the Valley of the Undying King. Meet the Commander at the desert ruins and get into position. Keep your eyes peeled. You must defend the ruins from multiple waves of Voidrakar attacks coming from any direction.



[h2]Defend the Ruins[/h2]
The raids on Fahad’s supply caravans have gone ignored long enough. The guards are running low on supplies and can barely hold back the Voidrakar forces without help. Fahad is happy for your help but one person is not enough. You have a mutual friend who might be convinced to assist… Zhoom.
[h2]A Magical Disturbance[/h2]
Fahad believes whatever is attacking his caravan is capable of powerful magic… A witch of some sort who derives their power from the desert sands. A Sand… Witch, if you will. Zhoom has heard of such a creature and he is willing to track her down with your help.



[h2]Follow Zhoom![/h2]
Get ready to support Zhoom in tracking down the culprit behind the caravan attacks. With Zhoom guiding the way, the two of you will scour the desert in search of the source of all kinds of magical trouble. Getting to your destination won't be easy, so be ready to assist Zhoom against whatever foe shows up along the trail.
Note: Let Zhoom know when you’re ready to get going! He’ll wait for you to catch your breath after each encounter.



[h2]The Sand Witch’s Layer… er, Lair[/h2]
Enjoy the new immersive sound effects and a new soundtrack designed specifically for this dungeon by Jongaar. Follow the sounds of the Sand Witch’s chants and cackles as you search her lair. Just be mindful of what you say to her. All that sand has made her a salty Sand Witch. Also, pay close attention to the altars in her lair. The pretty lights are more than just decoration.



Should you succeed, Fahad may need you to go back into the sand witch’s lair each day to make sure the sandy menace doesn’t return. You’ll be rewarded very well for it, and you can use your rewards at Fahad’s new Sand Witch Shop! A Lil’ Yucky Pet and Alter Ego armor set + weapon are available to purchase with your Sand Witch Leftovers. XD

[h2]See you... {insert pun here}[/h2]
By the way, if you enjoyed the Sand Witch fight, music, and all of the puns included, give a shout out to our team on Twitter (@AQ3Dgame)! Aveleon built the dungeon experience, Jongaar wrote the music and sound fx, Yergen created the dungeon map, and Baleerio has been our writer for all of Sandsea so far!
And if you come up with any great Sand Witch-related puns of your own, Tweet them to us @AQ3Dgame with the #sandwitchpun! We’ll include a few of our favorite puns in next week’s Design Notes.

Battle on!

[h2]Vetroid Jellyfish Egg?[/h2]
The pet and travel form in this year's collection has not hatched yet. Expert Cryptozoologists believe that these mysterious blue eggs will hatch into a Vetroid. Typically they are deep sea monsters. But, what would happen if one of these eggs hatched into the open air? Experts speculate that the Vetroid would gain the ability to breathe oxygen and float effortlessly in the air-- very much the same way their deep sea relatives do in water. One thing is certain. Vetroid eggs ONLY hatch once a year and they ALL hatch at the same time. And that time... is within next week!



[h2]See you at the Shark Attack War on Pointe Less Isle![/h2]
How do you get there? Head to town and talk to Annette. And watch out for sharks, giant crabs, and katana wielding Samurai shellfish.

See you in game....
