Dragon Travel Forms!



[h2]"That's a lotta dragons.... Gaz."[/h2]

Everyone's favorite black market vendor rode to town square with dragons. Lots and lots of Dragons. His cart is right at the entrance to town-- can't miss him. Also in the news, terrible footwear, the dreamer is now actually a bow, the Voidrakar will soon begin their obliteration of our world, and also something about a secret order of people who worship shrubbery?
https://aq3d.com/news/dragontravelforms/



[h2]The Dreamer is now available as a real bow![/h2]

One of our awesome custom weapon tier Kickstarter backer, created a bow before long before we had real bows in the game XD A lot of people have been asking if it could be turned into a bow. Just so happened that last week, while hanging out in game I ran into the backer on Pointeless Isle. We talked about it and got permission to add a bow version. We are not changing the original version, because many people who possess that weapon wanted to keep it as is so they can equip it with any armor (not just Ranger.) Currently, the new version is available in the treasure chests.



[h2]Assault on Dragonwatch[/h2]

The Voidrakar have one goal... to wipe everything you know and love from ever existing. As they prepare their assault on our world, finding the correct words to describe them is challenging. They are not a legion, horde, nor an army. They are best described as a Host. The assault on Dragonwatch is currently in production. It is the missing chapter between your first encounter with Vane and the town of Battleon.



[h2]"Ask and you shall re... WHY!? OMG! WHY?"[/h2]

A Mythical Derpricon has been spotted in the social district. It appears randomly in between the Megalodons. This creature has a chance to drop some really.. uh.. stylish footwear. The pretty pink pony shoes were a constant recommendation to me on social media by a player eager to complete a full pony/brutralcorn set. When Winnie said in the artist chat on Monday, "I am open, need anything?" I immediately responded, "How do you feel about pony shoes?" When talking about game devs listening to their players... did anyone ever stop to ask, "should they?" XD



[h2]Thank you & Coming next![/h2]

Thanks for all of the bugs and issues you reported during testing of the new Class Rank system. We made all of the fixes and are currently testing newest version on the PTR. The new system allows all classes to continue ranking up all the way to 100... unlocking Legendary armors, items, and a title along the way. It is not meant to be a one sitting task. It is meant to passively reward you as you battle monsters with your favorite class. Our next release window is Tuesday. Keep your fingers crossed! Also, the new Fishing system is going up for testing this weekend on the PTR too! Combined with the Tower of Necromancy and the Pyramids of the Sandsea desert, we have some great stuff coming your way.

Finally... because I am so bad at keeping secrets. If Gaz is in town square. What is in that spot where he used to be?

Battle on!
Artix, Glisel, and the AdventureQuest 3D Team

Bow Crafting for Ranger!



The world has been filled with new bows!

The world has been filled with new bows! Explore the world and craft unique bows with stats. Each one is themed from the land you create it in. The AdventureQuest 3D artists have spent the past few weeks working on these... they are beautiful, inspired, and available for you to earn in game now.
https://aq3d.com/news/bow_crafting/



[h2]Where to find and craft these new bows?[/h2]
  • Necrotic Bow - Doomwood - Stygis Crafting
  • Plunder Seeker - Lolosia - Lolosia Blacksmith
  • Arcane Recurve Bow - ArcanGrove - Arcangrove Sentinel
  • Winter's Arc - Frostval - Frostvale Village Crafting
  • Bloodsworn Bow - Darkovia Castle - Monster Stalker Crafting
  • Lycan Nightstalker - Darkovia Castle - Monster Stalker Crafting
  • Ironwood Bow - Darkovia Forest - Darkovia Forest Crafting
  • Shaman's Balanced Bow - World Tree - Soothsayer Crafts
  • Ninja Hankyu - Yokai Isle - Ninja Weapon Crafting
  • Living Branch Bow - Heartwood - Heartwood Ranger Gear
  • Guardian Bow - Guardian Tower - Fortes' Guardian Crafting




[h2]Necrotic Bow[/h2]
Talk to Stygis in Doomwood to craft this horrifying double stringed skull bow. Created by Thyton, the intention was for the arrow to shoot through the mouth of the skull. +100 bonus points for bow creativity.



[h2]Plunder Seeker[/h2]
You are able to craft this pirate bow in the port town of Lolosia. Talk to the Black Smith there. Using the pirate ship style ropes to hold the bow together, and a skull and cross bones hand guard comes from the creative mind of Dage the Evil.



[h2]Arcane Recurve Bow[/h2]
Head to the mystical forest of ArcanGrove and find the Arcangrove Sentinel. They will teach you how to craft this magical bow. The hand guard is a magical shell like spell and the string is pure energy. Also created by Dage.



[h2]Winter's Arc[/h2]
Travel to Frostval in the frozen north.... and find your way to the Frostvale Village. There you can craft this bow made of wood and enchanted ice. Created by Winnie!



[h2]Bloodsworn Bow[/h2]
Is it true that Vampire's suck at archery? I would not recommend finding out. The bat themed Bloodsworn bow can be found in Darkovia Castle. Look for the character that lets you do Monster Stalker Crafting. By Dage.


[h2]Lycan Nightstalker[/h2]
The bow of choice for werewolves can also be crafted in Darkovia Castle. This feral bow is tough... and by the looks of it, requires Lycan strength just to pull. (Art by Dage)


[h2]Ironwood Bow[/h2]
Not a Vampire nor Werewolf (yet?) ... than you should seek out the Ironwood Bow. You can craft it in Darkovia Forest. Now, you just need some silver arrows. (Art by Thyton.)


[h2]Shaman's Balanced Bow[/h2]
If you are a Ranger who is walking the path of peace and balance, head to the World Tree to find the Shaman Bow. You can create it using Soothsayer Crafts.


[h2]Living Branch Bow[/h2]
By far the nicest smelling of the bows in this release. Probably because this bow is living, covered with nature and flowers. Travel to Heartwood forest to craft the Living Branch Bow.


[h2]Ninja Hankyu[/h2]
Craft this infamous ninja bow on Yokai Isle through Ninja Weapon Crafting! (Art by Darkon)


[h2]Guardian Bow[/h2]
Guardians should report to the Fortes in the Guardian Tower to create their bow. It forced from the same metal used to create the Guardian Blades. (Art by Dage)


[h2]Rangers all wear green and have pointy ears, right?[/h2]
Nah, you have the freedom and control to be anything you want in AdventureQuest 3D. Nearly every player in this picture is a ranger! You control how your character looks and plays. Collect classes, items, and cross-skills, switch between them at any time.


[h2]More Adventure, Bows, and Features incoming![/h2]
The Ranger Class release has been getting rave reviews and we are hard at work making it even better. The artists have a second wave of bows coming including the Ashfall bow, the Death's Lair bow, and more. We are also working on the new fishing & trade-skill system, guilds, the Tower of Necromancy, the Sand Sea Desert, raising the max rank of classes with new rewards and titles, and the main storyline featuring the creatures of the Void. Keep your eyes on on the news at www.AQ3D.com for the latest official news!

Battle on!

Just released! RANGER CLASS



[h2]Robina is waiting to train you as a Ranger in Greenguard Forest![/h2]
Our first bow class is finally here! Hop in game and talk to Robina to being your Ranger training. AdventureQuest 3D allows you to collect classes and switch between them at any time. Here's everything you need to know...
Read the original post at: https://aq3d.com/news/ranger_release/

[h2][/h2]
[h2]What is a Ranger?[/h2]
The Ranger class is a new Tier 1 class which exclusively uses bows. Rangers are cunning hunters, trackers, and guides who have found their calling outside the cities and villages of Lore. These agile adventurers wander the natural landscapes, bow in hand, learning the ways of the wild and living off the land. Each attack accumulates Focus that can be used to execute more powerful shots.


[h2]Ranger Skills[/h2]
This is a very versatile soloing class which can snare foes and rain arrows down upon them.
  • Trapper's Instinct (Passive - 25% damage increase to immobilized creatures)
  • Auto Shot (at 100 Focus, next shot will Critically hit and grant Swiftness)
  • Empowered Shot (a single arrow that can pierce through multiple enemies in a line)
  • Rain of Arrows (a volley of arrows that pierce through multiple enemies in the area of effect)
  • Bloodthorn Trap (summon vines that Root and Poison all enemies that enter the area of effect)
  • Arcane Archery (Ultimate - Arrows explode with arcane energy, granting extra focus per enemy caught in the explosion)
  • Disengage (This is a Cross Skill which can be equipped with any class once unlocked - An evasion skill! Launch an arrow while leaping backwards to put some space between you and your foe)



[h2]Ranger Bows[/h2]
This week, you get your starter bow! It is the only bow available today in Robina's "Ranger Class Gear" shop. Next week... you will be able to craft new bows from around the world. Check what are artists made for you in this sneak peek Bow art post.


[h2]Bows -- a Ranger's best friend![/h2]
Which one will be your BBF? (Best Bow Forever)
The Ranger class only uses bows. (Just like the Pirate class only uses pew pews.) So, when you switch to Ranger, your bow will be equipped automatically. We wanted to make switching between classes as easy as possible. Especially now that we have multiple classes that use unique weapons.... and are planning for more in the future.


[h2]How to get Ranger Class?[/h2]
Robina is waiting to train you in Greenguard Forest! Start Ranger training with class quests and dailies, and turn in some of those class tokens to start building up your Ranger class gear!

How to travel to Greenguard Forest? Lots of options...
  • Just walk out of town... she is standing on the road.
  • Use the Adventure menu
  • Use the Travel map
  • Use the portal
  • Be super ultra lazy, have a friend there and use their summon code to portal to them XD



[h2]The "William Tell" Update[/h2]
AdventureQuest 3D version 1.52.0
This week's new game version includes Apple login, Bow support, and more. We're calling it the "William Tell" release XD
See what is new.



[h2]Thank you... and good hunting![/h2]
We hope you love this new class. It is a pretty easy one to get, and a super fun one to play. Thank you for supporting AdventureQuest 3D's weekly updates. We have been making progress on the next adventure areas... keep your eyes for monster, item, and world previews!

See you and your bow in game :D

Battle on!

Hey! Can I get that summer gear in "Orangecicle"?
Oh yes. In fact you should head back to Pointeless Isle and craft summer gear in all of the new colors including.... Dark Summer & Orangecicle. Mmmmm. Craftlicious.

[h2]Thank you & coming next![/h2]

Major things we are building for you now include ranger class, fishing & trade skills, Guilds (phase 1), improved jump button, a fancier looking adventure menu....
