Merge these tokens with the classic Newbatron until you get to the desired level.

Don’t forget to head to Dean Warlic’s Office and see Char for a new Wormhole-tech Front Arm – the Dimension Shaker!

Chairman Platinum believes you must dress for success, and for that reason, EbilCorp scientists have designed a unique power suit – the Platinum’s Pride, which comes with the Chairman’s Fury bonus, to unleash an uppercut and steal 25% of your opponent’s rage. The armor comes in Level 35 and 25 versions, also available as promotional armors in the 5 key and 3 key varium packages respectively.

Moar evil comes in Delta V as Dage takes up residence in Delta V. He’s offering some awesome guns that do splash damage (hit multiple targets in 2vs2) as well as an evil bike – Dage’s Blood Rider! Ride away with some evil gear from Dage himself.

Chairman Platinum can be found in Fortune City, if you want to talk to EbilCorp’s boss himself, while Dage the Evil can be found in the Minetower!

We thought it would be a good idea to include some video walkthroughs to cover the currently available characters in the Oversoul Alpha test.

In this video, we cover Barbarian, Young Paladin, and Fire Witch.

The remaining characters will be covered in the next three videos.

Be sure to like and subscribe for the next parts which will be released soon!

But wait, every hero and his trusty sidekick needs a home! J6 is offering 3 new houses, 1 member only and 2 that costs ACs (1000 ACs, to be exact). Head down to Battleon to get some huge houses based off some Temple maps across Lore!

And don’t forget, J6′s wedding event comes on Friday, with a new house being brought in as well!

Hey guys, I’m back!

Nulgath has updated Oversoul again, adding a new card, more music, a battle engine revision, and he fixed some bugs!
The new card is the “Counter Strike”  card, which is a special for Spear Natives and Recruits.

The battle engine has been revised, making new play orders for defence, attacks and spells.

Sound effects have been added for spell cards, and a sound effect for your card movements has also been added.

The bug fixes were:

Fixing the bug that caused PvP battles to freeze while loading.

Several battle errors that were caused by the server (desyncs) have been fixed.

And finally, a bug that caused the wrong spell effects to play (which caused more desyncs) has been squashed.

And some say, the Alpha Pirate is going to change his hiding spot soon. He won’t even appear there any more.

That’s all for now folks.

October is a significant month for Artix Entertainment. Tons of anniversaries and awesome events are to come during the next month. Artix Entertainment celebrates it’s 10th anniversary this month, truly a huge milestone for the company! While in AQWorlds, the game turns 4, coming with a brand new 4th Upholder achievement and a new rare sword next month!

October 1st is also a very special day for MechQuest… this year the game turns half a decade old! The MQ community has an annual tradition of holding a Q/A session with significant people in the MQ Team – ‘Ask Me Anything.’ This year, Plasma Charge and Practel, two of the MQ Gremlins ArchKnights, will be the ones taking your questions. Both are now familiar faces on the MQ Design Notes, so it’s just fitting that you get to know them!

Throw some questions over to them here and in the coming weeks, both Plasma Charge and Practel will be answering your questions in the Design Notes.

Happy anniversary, MechQuest!

Rare Event Items:

• Silver Eternal Flame
• J6 Wedding Cake Helm
• Honeymoon Hyperium House
• And more!

J6 has also been making some houses for you to party in! There will be house versions of the Temple of Hope and Cleric Temple.

Meet Balboa, trainer of pets to make them fight alongside the heroes of Lore! This Wednesday or Thursday, he’ll set up shop in Battleon and offer you some companions to fight with! Samba will be giving more information on what to expect from the shop tomorrow!
