June Update Notes


Quest Helper Changes

We made some recent changes to the Quest Helper arrow that seemed to hinder more than help, so we've made some more changes and we want your feedback.
  1. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a main storyline quest and accept another main storyline quest - the Quest Arrow should switch to the newly accepted quest
  2. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a main storyline quest and accept a side quest - the Quest Arrow should not switch to the newly accepted side quest
  3. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a side quest and accept a main storyline quest - Quest Arrow will switch to point in the direction of the main storyline quest
  4. If you are using Quest Arrow to track a side quest and accept another side quest - Quest Arrow will switch to point in the direction of the newly accepted side quest
This should solve the issue of the Quest Helper not recognizing that you picked up a new quest.



Amber!

The chance of getting Amber from the harvest of White Tiger Lily, Deadly Ninja Fig, King Parsley, Red Bell Pepper and Red Huckleberries has been slightly increased, and White Tiger Lily still has the best chance of rewarding you with Amber on Elder Harvest. 

A new transmutation recipe is available from Shane MacGobhann in Avalon. 

Amber Dust and another mystery reagent are available from bosses like the Pendragon, Morganthe and Starburst Spider as well as bosses in Waterworks and Briskbreeze towers. 


You can garden for the pure Amber, or defeat bosses for the ingredients for the recipe.

  1. Strange Beast has been removed from the Hydra's Hoard pack
  2. Backdraft can now be cloaked
  3. Mass Infection will now cloak properly
  4. Bows and Mandolins can now be placed in the Shared Bank

Chapter 5, just for the children!

Not really. In fact, dont let your children read it.
Yup, chapter five is up and ready for your deluge of definite and unwanted inquiries and criticism.
Nah, I'm kidding. Criticism is welcome, and I'll be more than happy to clear up any confusion regarding plot.

Hoard of the Hydra...Hmm...

Now you know I'd be totally opposed to this new pack under ordinary circumstances. However, since the stuff in this pack looks so freaking epic, I'll allow a bit of tolerance:

Hoard of the Hydra Pack!

Introducing the first ever
Three person mount!


The first game card pack of the summer is here! With a chance at the amazing three person Hydra Mount, the Hoard of the Hydra has tons of epic and ultra rare items for your Wizard.

In addition to the Hydra mount, this new game card pack also has tons of cool new items!
  • Beast Pet
  • Magical Mandolin Wand
  • New Gear
  • New Pet Snacks
  • New Bobbleheads
  • and much more!



See what cool items you can get for your Wizard by checking out the Hoard of the Hydra pack in the Crown shop today!





So the pack is fine, the gear is fine, the mount is fine, the wand is fine, blah blah blah. But I just have one thing to say.
I WANT THAT FLUFFING PET!

And my tan continues to darken.

So just spent two days at a water park. Smell like a pool. Wonderful.
So to some added news for KI's Pet-A-Palooza, they've started an event with PC Gamer. You can read about it here: PC Gamer's Pet-A-Palooza Giveaway
Also, two new pets have been added for the event; the Hollow Knight and Red Cap pets. Hopefully the stats are good; I have yet to see them.
In completely unrelated and totally epiclatastical news, I HAVE A FACEBOOK DISLIKE BUTTON! If you want a request for one, send me a friend request on my Wolf Deathbringer Facebook account, and I'll send you a request. It's completely safe and totally works.
On a slightly more related note, I'm debating whether I should put the big competition in chapter 5, or make it a separate chapter. Comment below with your thoughts assuming anyone still visits this blog.

In writing this, I think I'm gonna start a generic Video Games blog. :D I'll post a poll over yonder and y'all can tell me what to do, because we all LOVE the satisfaction of knowing we have authority over someone, regardless of the fact that I'll probably create this blog and disregard the poll entirely.

Urr Rahh NooBoo!
Simlish FTW!
