The new Demon Hunter Vanity Bundle is here! This premiere bundle is available in the ingame store, and includes a full costume set plus a matching mount skin for your Riding Horse.

The bundle includes dark, intimidating costume skins for your character's head, cape, armor, and shoe slots, with distinctive dark leather and steel buckles and skull-shaped epaulets with an eerie purple glow. It also includes a matching Riding Horse skin with black fur, studded-steel accents, and glowing purple eyes to light up the night.



The Demon Hunter Bundle includes the following vanity skins, which work on male and female characters alike:
  • Demon Hunter's Hat
  • Demon Hunter's Coat
  • Demon Hunter's Boots
  • Demon Hunter's Cape
  • Demon Hunter's Horse

As with past bundles, you can use all costume and mount skins with all characters on your account, and they are never lost or destroyed. All items will be unlocked in the ingame "Appearance" menu after purchase.

Refer One Friend and Claim the Snow Leopard Skin

A new referral season is here! From now until October 1, refer your friends and claim your very own Snow Leopard mount skin. This skin transforms your Swiftclaw base mount into a sleek and snowy feline companion – and once you've unlocked it, it can be used by all characters on your account.

You can also earn huge amounts of Fame for your third and fifth referrals: three referrals scores you a T7 Pile of Tomes worth 100,000 Fame, and five referrals gets you a T8 Pile of Tomes granting a colossal 200,000 Fame. And as always, your first-ever referral grants an additional T8 Pile of Tomes along with the mount skin.

The current referral season lasts until maintenance on October 1, so you've got until then to refer your friends and claim your rewards. Note: starting with this referral season, mount skin referral rewards will not be tradable until 15 days after the referral season ends.


[h3]How to Earn Seasonal Referral Rewards[/h3]
  • Send your referral link, which you can find here, to a friend. (You must be logged into your account on the website to view this page.)
  • Your friend registers an account and starts playing Albion Online (preferably along with you!).
  • The first time your friend purchases at least 30 days of Premium, they will trigger a reward for you.
  • On top of that, for your very first referral ever, you'll receive a T8 Recruiter's Pile of Tomes, worth a whopping 200,000 Fame.

The Divine Challenge Returns



Summer is in full swing, and the Divine Challenge is back! For the entire month of August, earn points for open-world activities, unlock chests to get valuable loot, and claim your very own Divine Owl.
[h3]Simply Divine[/h3]
DIVINE OWL: This month's Challenge brings back the Divine Owl, a ghostly white flying mount with a brisk base move speed. This mount has a special ability, Foresight, which creates a shield that gives a temporary speed boost when broken. (Note: like all mounts, the Divine Owl can only move in navigable ground areas and cannot fly over obstacles.)

AVATAR RING: Adventurers who rack up enough total Challenge Points will also earn the Divine Challenge avatar ring, which will frame your chosen avatar in a heavenly golden aura. This non-tradable item permanently unlocks this avatar border for one character, or can be traded to the Vanity Merchant for one Vanity Token.

SEASONAL SPECIALS: All month long, reach weekly goals to unlock Divine Challenge chests. In addition to valuable rewards like Adventurer's Tomes and Silver, you'll also have a chance to unlock mystical furniture items like the Mage Statue, Magic Rune Circle, and Glass Sphere.
 
As always, you can earn Challenge Points by gathering, fishing, farming, and killing monsters. Points count simultaneously toward a daily bonus, a weekly unlockable chest, and the monthly mount / avatar ring reward. So log in, head out into the open world, gather points, and claim these rewards while you can!
