AdventureQuest 3D News

[h2]Sci-fi/fantasy fans rejoice![/h2]

It is the 4th, and as per tradition we are celebrating with a brand new collection of parody items. Each piece is uniquely ours, but inspired enough to make our lawyer's cheeks clench a little. Hop in game, check it out, and get in the spirit. "Make it so... number one."

INSIDE JOKE: Several members of our team have been responding to every May the 4th comment with a random Star Trek line. We do not judge. We are enthusiastic fans of all of the above.
Craft the BLACK HELM set!

[h2]GAME WIDE MONSTER HUNT![/h2]
There is a game wide monster hunt that will allow you to earn the hilarious oversized Black Helm Set. Yes... >_> a parody of a parody. Equip it and use the Mage to cast fireballs like a Flame Thrower. "The kid's will love it!"

[h2]Don't look a Wooden Gift Horse in the Mouth[/h2]
Join us in AdventureQuest 3D this week and Quest for the new Wooden Stallion travel form, play the Heartwood Hunt challenge, and earn the Cryptodirax armor and items!.



[h2]Wooden Stallion Travel Form[/h2]
Crafted from the living tress of Heartwood and given magical life through its magic. Want to make one? Find Audin the Travling Merchant in Heartwood. She has a new daily quest called "Gift Horse" to help you collect the ingredients needed to craft this 160% speed travel form.




[h2]Fixed & Live! The Heartwood Hunt[/h2]
Finally, you can learn to become a behemoth hunter and earn the Cryptodirax armor and items. Of course, you will have to defeat the Cryptodirax-- which was bugged due to a glitch in one of the new gameplay features. We fixed it and its working now! Begin your adventure by talking to Drak in Heartwood forest. Where is he? Not far. When you enter HeartWood go left. You will see him under a canopy of yellow-leaved trees with a tiny cave behind him. Go into the cave to start the adventure!



[h2]Heartwood Hunt Items[/h2]
The Cryptodirax armor set can be built from the drops off the creature. Its stat power when it is crafted will be at your level minus one (minimum level 7). You can also purchase the Razorshell Turtle Pet from Drak.




[h2]Daily Boss Maps Fixed[/h2]
Earn the Haximus set. Monsters on all Daily Boss maps are now behaving normally and arriving on time again. And the Sunken Ship Challenge is poisonous once again. XD

Want to know why? Read the original post here.



[h2]Less than One Week Left![/h2]
Just a heads up. There is only a week left in the DragonCrystal bonus "flash sale" thingy. Support the game by buying anything in AdventureQuest 3D and get 50% more bonus DragonCrystals. It is a crazy good deal. But it ends this Monday (May 4th, 2020).




[h2]Monday is "May the 4th be With you"[/h2]
This Monday is May 4th... and our yearly sci-fi/fantasy celebration of "May the 4th be with you" returns. We have a game wide monster hunt and a collection of parody items. Including one ridiculously oversized Black Samurai-looking Dark Lord helm.



[h2]Thank you and reminder...[/h2]
We hope you enjoy this Wooden Stallion and Cryptodirax release. Thank you for your all of your encouragement and support.

So, question for you... have you ever wanted to go treasure hunting in the Ancient Inverted Pyramids of the Sandsea Desert? Asking for a friend. XD

Find Drak, the Behemoth Hunter, in Heartwood Forest. He has two adventures where he'll teach you the ropes. Literally. Learn how to build a crafting table, create traps, and bait the Razorshell River Turtle in a special challenge adventure with new rewards including pets and a full epic quality set of Cryptodirax items.... including that cool back shell item in the pic far below!
https://aq3d.com/news/heartwood_ruins_challenge/



[h2]A Craft & Hunt Challenge[/h2]

Once you have mastered the basics, gather a party and use what you learned to take on the giant Cryptodirax in the Heartwood Forest Challenge. Plus, unlock a new stat armor set to craft and the Razorshell Turtle Pet!




This is a very fun and fair new challenge map. It was created for you by Llussion. He has a long history of adding new gameplay mechanics in his maps... and all of us on the staff who are testing it fell in love with this release. Hope you do to.



[h2]Drak, the Behemoth Hunter[/h2]

You'll find Drak in Heartwood Forest under a canopy of yellow-leaf trees. He's eager to show you how to become a behemoth hunter. You can also visit unlock the epic Cryptodirax Armor set (with stats!) to craft and the Razorshell Turtle Pet after completing the dungeon.



[h2]Cryptodirax Armor Set w/ Stats[/h2]

The new items in Heartwood drop around your power level... including the new Cryptodirax set. When crafting the pieces, they will complete at your level minus one, with a minimum of level 7. So, if you are currently level 30, it will be level 29. BUT if you are under level 7, it will be level 7 because that is the minimum.



[h2]The Heartwood Forest Dungeon[/h2]


Drax's tutorial mission

In the dungeon, Drax will show you how to hunt behemoths. There are new skills to learn like chopping trees for wood to create a crafting table, and learning how to make the docile Razorshell River Turtle become hostile to fight it by using bait and traps. This acts as the tutorial for the challenge where you're on your own. You must be at least level 7 to enter the dungeon.



[h2]The Heartwood Forest Challenge[/h2]

Gird your loins, because this one is a real challenge. The Heartwood Forest Challenge takes the basics of the dungeon tutorial and applies them on a grand scale to the giant Cryptodirax, a type of Razorshell Turtle. You'll see this creature coming as it crashes through the trees, but you can't fight it while it's docile. You must use the skills you learned in the dungeon on this real behemoth of a turtle. Stock up on traps and bait. If you can't hold its aggro, it will run away and you'll have to track it down again. It may take a few tries to get a hang of this one, but it's worth it. You need the drops from the Cryptodirax to craft the Cryptodirax Armor with stats.
