Now Available: New Quest + Weapon
Why wait until Friday? Play now for more reward gear!
Every day you log in to AdventureQuest Worlds, there's a new server boost, item reward drop, or activity for you to enjoy. Our main game updates go live on Friday nights; this year, in addition to the weekend item hunts and daily server boosts, we've added an additional mid-week mini-release to our schedule. Our team gets to be even more creative and YOU get even more rewards. It is win-win!
September 26th || Lost Guardian Blade III
The Guardians who watch over the tower in Battleon are famous throughout Lore, with a history going back for years upon years. Grizzled veterans tell tales to new recruits of the strongest and bravest among them, filling their heads with dreams of glory and visions of bright blades flashing in the sunlight. Talk to Valencia in the /museum to begin a series of quests to reforge a blade by one of these lost, legendary guardians!
Part 4 will release in October, during our month-long 15th birthday celebration! The quests + rewards are permanently available.

New: Star Rating Difficulty Guide
To help you better gauge the type, length, and difficulty of our mid-week updates, we're adding Star Ratings (like you see on monsters).
- 1 star: Pretty simple. Most players should be able to finish this with little to no issue.
- 2 star: Slightly more complex. It might take looking up a clue or two on the wiki, or talking to friends.
- 3 star: Somewhat complex. These may have a ciper or a multi-step clue to solve.
- 4 star: Complex. Tough clues, 1 or 2 unique clue locations, and may be level-locked.
- 5 star: Very complex. Very difficult clues, multiple unique clue locations, will likely require heroes to show/hide the UI, check background art, and may require some monster farming.
Thank you to everyone that has been logging in, enjoying, and sharing your thoughts on the last few months of mid-week treasure hunts and updates. We'll continue to evolve our mid-week updates based on your feedback!
