Still to come... Eldritch Grim Necromancer armor

A few weeks ago, we asked if there were any Legion variants of class skins you would like to have. We got a tON of great replies. We couldn't do them all this year, and to stick with our Underworld theme, Axeros created a Legion Necromancer skin that anyone in the Undead Legion can farm for this weekend.

He also forged Underworld-themed + color-custom Underworld-themed armor variants of the Grim Necromancer class (preview here), originally available from the 600k AC Achievement Tracker badge shop.

color-custom Eldritch Grim Necro gear will be available from Dage's shop, Collection, and the 600k AC badge shop
the non-CC Underworld Grim Necro gear will be available from the 600k AC badge shop

Mythic Item of Digital Awesomeness?!

The Mythic Item of Digital Awesomeness (or MIoDA for short) is a miscellaneous item you will get by purchasing the 40k AdventureCoin pakage. Like the other IoDA items, it allows you to choose any item in the game when you redeem it through your Account Manager.

Wait...AdventureCoin Bonus?!

That's right! Several times each year, we have bonus AdventureCoin offers, where we'll increase the amount of ACs you get with each pack. (example: Summer, Back to School, and during the holidays). Bonus amounts and dates may change from year to year, so keep an eye on the Design Notes and social media for more news of future bonuses.
