Enter the HATch
A strange… person?... has shown up in the town of Battleon this week. If you head over to the Barber Shop you will find Hatrick, the Man of Hats. Hatrick, as you might guess really enjoys hats. He’s obsessed with them in fact. He travels the land in search of rare hats to add to his hat collection, however. This time he needs your help to obtain a hat. Travel to the Hat Tomb and grab it for him. Obviously, this is a simple task for a hero such as yourself.
Collect Hats
Once you’ve helped Hatrick out a little you’ll be able to obtain hats from him and.. Horns? Hat-orns…? Collect Powerful Hat Essence from all monsters in the zones. You can also earn Powerful Hat Essence by running the 3 Daily Quests that Hatrick will have available to help you along the way.
Travel Forms and Pets?!
Hatrick also has Travel Forms and Pets?!… They wear hats so no rules are being broken with this theme!
Class Balance Changes
In our ongoing effort to tune classes and put more fun and power in the hands of the player, we’ve made some changes to both the Pirate and Ninja classes, giving them some AoE.
- Pirate: Flak Shot is now an AoE
- Ninja: Both Slashing Gale and Fire Strike are now AoEs
New Promo Items: Draconic Dread Cannons
Our September promo item is the Draconic Dread Cannons! To get this menacing dragon gun, just purchase any package in the upgrade shop, now with 50% extra Dragon Crystals on select packages. For those that get one of the Guardian upgrade packages, you will also get the Draconic Cannons at no extra cost.
Prepare For War…
Next week the Pirate vs Ninja war begins! We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to create a new war using feedback from the Invasion From the Deep. One of these changes is how the War Meter is progressed. Originally, you would only get a set amount from turning in a quest… Any quest. We’ve worked hard to change that system to allow you to earn varying amounts of progress so harder quests will fill the meter faster. But, it doesn’t stop there! These updates to the war system go beyond allowing different quests to have varying impacts on the war effort. Kills and other actions can now count towards filling up that bar. We look forward to seeing you on the battlefield!
Battle on,
Clarion, Artix, and the AdventureQuest 3D Team
