AdventureQuest 3D News

UPDATE: This event has ended. Thank you to everyone who came.

[h2]Join us in game at noon, 3pm, 6pm, & 9pm EST![/h2]
Hang out with Artix & the Team this Thursday in game! Relax and have fun. We will be online every 3 hours to live spawning monsters, telling stories, and dropping treasure.

All four of the events tomorrow are free, unscripted, live, and... really, truly, honestly, anything goes! (You were warned XD)

[h2]How do I join in![/h2]
Easy. Hop on AdventureQuest 3D at the following times. Keep a look out for Artix's red server-wide announcements which will tell you where the event is taking place.

USA East Coast (EST / EDT) - Noon, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm (Our lab is here)
USA West Coast (PST) - 9am, Noon, 3pm, 6pm
Brazil (BRT) - 1pm, 4pm, 7pm, 11pm
United Kingdom - 5pm, 8pm, 11pm, 2am
France - 6pm, 9pm, Midnight, 3am
Philippines - Midnight, 3am, 6am, 9am
Australia - 2am, 5am, 8am, 11am

[h2]What to expect O_O[/h2]
If you have never been to one of these before, then... come join us for some fun. Get your screenshot key ready and expect lot of monsters, photo ops, and bizzare things you would never see happen in NORMAL game play. Artix & the AQ3D team will be talking through yellow text that appears at the top of your screen, and live spawning monsters to every room participating in the event. Sometimes the team will "re-broadcast" messages from players. You just need to be there. Periodically, Live Event Coin chests will be spawned. These contain super rare coins which can unlock some live-event only gear now... and soon, will be able to use live event coins to rank up some exclusive items.

It should be said... that these live events are somewhat dangerous. They are interactive and unscripted. So do not be too surprised if Artix makes his infamous typos revealing the staff-only commands or accidentally crashes the server for a bit (it's happened in the past.) Who cares? Let's just have fun :D



Hey PC/Mac players! Want to help test the Nature Guardian Tower?

While you wait, the upcoming Nature Guardian Tower has just been released for testing on the PTR (AdventureQuest 3D's Public Test Server). Currently, this testing server is only accessible via STEAM. We are working to add Android and other devices for future tests. No matter how you look at it, more testing = good! All testers will be able to enter and test the Nature Guardian Tower in HeartWood during this test on the PTR.

[h2]It's almost Summer... let's go on vacation early![/h2]

You and all of your friends are hereby invited to a relaxing, sunny, and slightly monster-infested getaway at Pointe Less Isle! Enjoy fishing, random monster spawns, new item drops, and crafting.



[h2]Random Boss Spawns[/h2]

The island is known for random boss monsters to appear.... and there are new drops and crafting!



[h2]Hey, these items seem kinda fishy to me![/h2]

"Fish ears, sword fishes, shark stuff and... hey! are you playing Koi with me?"



[h2]Gone Fishing![/h2]

You can fish on the isle once you are high enough rank.



Faith, the fishing trainer is on the isle now...



Oh yeah! You are going to need some serious fishing skills on the isle. Be sure to rank up your fishing in the Pirate Town of Lolosia first!



You can get to Pointe Less isle using your travel map, or by talking to Annette in town.



The isle is a place to chill. There are places to sit, hang out, and many creative players come up with their own games.

[h2]Have fun & Live Events next Thursday![/h2]

Have you ever been to one of our live events? A live event is when Artix or the other devs spawn monsters across the game during a live interaction with all the players online. It is pretty fun and often "anything goes". Sometimes we drop special treasure boxes too. Sometimes Artix tells stories. On Twitter last week, we figured out that we could hit almost every time zone if we did the live events at noon, 3pm, 6pm, and 9pm EST. So we would love to give it a shot next Thursday. Hope to see you there! I will do a post on you breaking down the times for different time zones early next week on the www.AQ3D.com website. Well, we will post it here on Steam too of course XD.

[h2]Tower of Necromancy Item Sneak Peek[/h2]
While we work on the boss fight and floors... here is a sneak peek at one of the rewards coming in the Tower of Necromancy.


[h2]Nature Guardian Tower to be released on PTR for public testing!?[/h2]
We would like to try something new for future releases.... starting with the upcoming Nature Guardian Tower. Before the live release, we would like to release it for you to try out on the Public Test Server. Only Steam users are able to access it... using that drop down menu when you right click on the game. We are currently finishing the tower and planning on putting it on the PTR next Friday. That will have it available for testing over the weekend... we will fix any issues on Monday and then do the LIVE RELEASE on Tuesday. If this format works, it will become the "new thing!"

...the Battleon Siege will be returning next week while the finishing touches are added to the tower.

[h2]Thank you and.... New secret command! [/h2]
Do you remember when the VoidKing and his minions burned our previous Town of Battleon to the ground? We defended our old home the last board. Then proved what we were really made of when we rebuilt the town. We rebuilt that little town into a city! But a lot of long time players miss that old town. Did you know they used make up and play party games like Hide-and-Seek, Fort Hunters, and Infected there? There were plenty of tall bushes, high walls, and pillars to hide behind or jump on top of to stay out of reach. We miss it too. Quench thy thirst for nostalgia! Or check out the history of the game if you just recently joined us. Simply type /join OldBattleon into chat to teleport there. Enjoy and use the travel shard in your inventory to teleport back to the current town when you are done.

See you in game.

Battle on!
Artix & all of your friends at AdventureQuest 3D

A Player vs Parkour Challenge

Hop in the slime filled sewers for this team vs team parkour challenge. You will be randomly placed on either the Jumper or Defender team. The jumpers have 10 minutes to find and activate three purple valves somewhere in the sewer. But it won't be easy. The defenders are there to mess with them by springing traps! At the end, everyone will be teleported to a special boss fights that drops loot to craft rewards with.



[h2]Go to to the sewers[/h2]

You will find the enterence to the sewers in the Scholar district of the home town. You know, if you go past the port and go right-ish into that area where Warlic's magic shop and the Trainer Hall is. There, you will find a sewer with a giant slime named Gloopy. Talk to it to see the rewards and learn more.
Jumpers



This parkour map features floating barrels, spinning gears, and all kinds of new things never seen in previous challenges. The sewer splits three ways. You and your team might want to split up and try to reach the objective at the end of each path. Warning! This new map was created by our most notoriously evil level designer. So expect to hit the respawn button a lot! XD
Defenders



Do you dream of making other players cry? If you are randomly placed on the Defenders team, you get to trigger traps. Activate valves to trigger the traps. Pay close attention to the colors of the vales. It gives a clue as to which trap it springs. You can also teleport around to get in a better position to stop the jumpers.


[h2]Boss Fights & Rare Item Drops![/h2]

A match lasts 10 minutes. Then, everyone is teleported to boss fights. The winning side gets better loot. Use the items these Boss Monsters drop to craft special plumber armor and plunger weapons. Oh... I nearly forgot to mention the Rate item drops? The Boss fights at the end all have a chance to drop rare items. They have a chance to drop regardless if you are on the winning side or not.

These prizes include...

• The Golden Plumber Plunger
  
• Slerg's Rod
  

[h2]Glisel leveled up... and made you a gift for her birthday![/h2]

Head to Winnie's tailor shop in town to get the new outfits Glisel made for you... for her birthday.



You know, it's storta mind-boggling that Artix Entertainment's coordinator has been making these armors in her spare time for you. O_O Surprised by this, I did an interview with her for you.

https://aq3d.com/news/glisel_birthday/

[h2]How to get the items[/h2]

Get the Items at Winnie's Tailor Shop in town!



There are two sets. The Green set is sold for gold in the "Glisel's Birthday Shop" tab, while the purple and blue sets are in "Glisel's Birthday Crafts". To craft them, you'll just need some dye and feathers.
