| Tomorrow: Battle to Build the Blade of Awe!
Quest throughout Lore tomorrow to gather the pieces of the Blade of Awe! Creating this legendary weapon unlocks the following shops:
- Blade of Awe*
- Awe Weapons (staff, spear, and daggers)
- Enhancements of Awe
Upgrade to evolve your blade into the Prime Blade of Awe... and to access the Member-only Guardian Dragon Battle Pet!
If you are a Guardian in the original AdventureQuest and have verified your Guardian account, then use the Guardian Patent to:
- Merge with the BoA to create the Guardian's Blade of Awe!
- Merge the Prime Blade of Awe into the Guardian's Prime Blade of Awe!
- Merge with the Guardian Dragon Battle Pet to create the Armored Guardian Dragon Battle Pet**
* The gem in the center will change to red before release.
** The Armored Guardian Dragon Battle Pet says snarky comments as it attacks!
Enhancements of Awe!
Create the Blade of Awe to unlock the Enhancements of Awe! These can be equipped on ANY weapon in your inventory (but we suggest trying them out with the Blade you've battled so hard to create).
- Spiral Carve - deals double damage
- Awe Blast - deals damage, lowers enemy damage
- Health Vamp - deals damage, heals you equal to damage dealt
- Mana Vamp - heals 10% of your mana
- Powerword Die - POWERWORD DIEEEEEEEEE!***
This is the current list of the Enhancements. They will be tested for balance tomorrow, so details might be tweaked, but Yorumi says they are all working! These enhancements add new attacks to your weapon, but the specials will not happen every time you attack.
*** Final stats released tomorrow after testing.
Nulgath Featured Shop Update!
The Minotaur Maurader armor, helms, and weapons will be added to Nulgath's shop with tomorrow's release!
 Go Minotaur against Minotaur when you battle Graveclaw!
The update includes AC and Member versions of:
- Mintaur Maurader Armor
- Bull Minotaur Morph Helm
- Cow Minotaur Morph Helm
- Minotaur Smashers Axe
- Dual Minotaur Smashers Axe
Server-wide Double Boost Weekend!
Log in any time until 12AM EST (midnight server time) Tuesday, May 28th, on ANY server to enjoy the DOUBLE XP BOOST weekend! Get DOUBLE experience points from any battle or quest... and if you're a Member, get 10% more REPUTATION when you play on Sir Ver or Evil Sir Ver!
These boosts stack with the AC XP and Rep Boosts available in the Class Shop in Battleon, so if you needed help leveling up, this is the weekend to play!
We will be doing more boosts in the future, too! Some of them smaller, some of them different. We can cycle between gold, exp, rep, or rank boosts! Member servers will always get MORE boosts than whatever is being offered on other servers.

Space Maker | Live: 5 More Buyable Inventory Slots!
Feel like your backpack is a little cramped? Is your bank full to overflowing? We have heard your cries of pain in the game, on Twitter and Facebook, and on the forums! Well, get ready for GREAT news, because we JUST added 5 MORE buyable inventory slots for 200 ACs each to AQWorlds!
 AQW Inventories: now with more space!
Where to Buy More Spaces
You can click on the "Add Space" button in your inventory window (like in the picture above). OR you can head North from Battleon up to the Bank (next to the Guardian Tower). Talk to Augold the Banker to buy more slots!
 Augold: Banker and Hammerspace Maker!
You Said You Couldn't Add New Spaces!!!
You are correct, disembodied collective player-voice! We said back when we didn't think we COULD add more space. We didn't want to risk increasing lag, but with Yorumi's massive improvements over the last year, it is now possible!
When we find out something you guys want isn't able to happen, we let you know that (as much and as often as is reasonable and possible). But sometimes... sometimes what is the truth of a situation one year changes the next year, or two years after that.
When that happens, things we didn't think were possible suddenly BECOME POSSIBLE! That is the BEST way we can be wrong, because it means we're able to do something for you guys we didn't think we could.
There are a lot of things that many of you want to see change. Really change. Core engine-level game-style changes. And we want a lot of those things, too. What can't be done, we work around, or we wait until things change to let us DO the things we want, and you guys want. Or we say, "we won't do that thing, because we are trying to protect you and your account." (Like with trading.)
When we see that you guys haven't enjoyed a release, we go home and think over the weekend. On Mondays, we pull out the giant whiteboard markers and strap on our eraser-bracers and go back to the drawing board.
The next week, we go in with a new battle plan for making the game better. And often the things you want to change CAN'T because of engine or client-level limitations... but we NEVER stop working to make the game better for as many of you guys as we can... while still making sure we CAN keep making the game.
Thank You For Supporting AQWorlds!
The entire AQWorlds team works hard to create releases because you love AQWorlds, and we love that so many of you support the game you love. Thank you for letting us know how you feel about the game, and what you want to see in it. Remember, AQW is YOUR game and you shape it through your suggestions and ideas!

Nulgath Revealed
As the former Master to Dage the Evil, Nulgath is the General of the Great Abyss, looming over the battle-hungry souls of OverSoul. Nulgath has appeared in many forms under many names, but his current evolution is quite pleasing to him …even if his appearance does strike fear into all those who gaze upon him!
Outside AQWorlds and OverSoul, Nulgath’s real-world artistic inspirations stemmed from Conan the Barbarian book covers and fantasy art at an early age/level. Back then, Nulgath was known as “Miltonius” and was contacted by Artix about doing a short film for DragonFable. That movie, Artix vs. The Undead, is AMAZING and incredibly popular and ZOMG if you haven’t seen it you NEED to right now!

 Slay challenge bosses to evolve the Blade of Awe!
Do Guardians get any other advantage?
Yes! Since the original Blade of Awe was crafted in AdventureQuest, we want to thank its supporters. The Clue of Awe will be added to the Verification shop which they can give to Valencia to create the Stonewrit! (Means 1 less quest for you to do, Guardians!)

Pink is Puuurrrfect! | Begin your Prowl as a Werejaguar!
Tuesday is here—and you know what that means: an all-new Limited Time Featured Artist Showcase Shop has arrived!
This week is dedicated to Mido, local Werejaguar and graphic designer for AdventureQuest Worlds. Mido has just released a ferocious fury of Werejaguar-themed items passed down from his ancient ancestral kin.
Who is Mido?
Artix Entertainment is an equal opportunity employer. We hire all sorts of talent from Bounty Hunters to Mad Weaponsmiths to even… Coffee-Wielding Werejaguars! Mido, former barista and full-time graphic designer, first caught wind of Artix Entertainment when his classmate was playing MechQuest... instead of studying for finals!
After Mido finished school with a Master of Fine Arts in Illustration and a Masters of Arts in Graphic Design, he began his prowl for internships within the video game industry. When he discovered that the local indie gaming company was the same one that produced MechQuest… POUNCE! Mido snagged the internship in April 2010 and became a full-time graphic designer three months later.
Mido’s artistic inspiration comes from years of “studying” video games, cartoons, and comic books. Now all that hard “work” is paying off! Mido enjoys collaborating with a diverse group of people who all share a passion of working hard and playing harder.
Wise words from a wise Werejaguar
Mido would like to share some inspiring words: “Never EVER say ‘I'm not any good’. That's negative thinking. Say ‘I'm working on getting better’ and be proud of how far you've come. Love what you do and show it by never stopping the creative process.”
Give Mido a roar of approval on his Twitter!
Now, get your Jaguar On in Battleon’s Featured Artist Showcase Shop!
