Coming Soon: The Battleon Card Game Returns
The 2nd Edition of AQWorlds' original card game is coming back!
The AdventureQuest Worlds Battleon Battle Card Game is one of our most popular HeroMart collectibles EVER… but it sold out last year. If you missed your chance to grab a deck back then, you’re in luck. We are bringing the Card Game BACK to www.HeroMart.com this month!
The Color Custom CardClasher Class which comes as a bonus with the card game is LIVE in AQW!
This class is unlike any other in AQW's history. It has the ability to deal cards to you and your opponent and each card has a different effect on each of you!
It gives you a lot of power no matter how you play the class but also a lot of customizability to how fit your play-style and a random element that makes this class addictive
CardClasher Skill Write Up!
AUTO ATTACK:
2 second cooldown.
This is the basic fighting skill that ever class has. Nothing fancy about it.
DRAW:
15 Mana. 2 Sec cooldown.
Deals a card to you and your opponent. Cards make you stronger and your opponent weaker. Cards have additional effects when Tap is cast.
You get three types of cards. A Sword, A Shield and a Spell card.
The cards dealt are random, but you can hit Deal again to get different cards. Be careful! Don't spend all of your time and mana looking for just the right cards!
TAP:
25 Mana. 2 sec cooldown.
Tap the cards on you and your target, removing the cards and applying powerful effects. Power is increased by Raise The Stakes stacks, which are consumed.
TAPPING THE SWORD CARD: If YOU have the sword card and you use TAP, it will increase damage you do to your foe. If your FOE has the sword card and you use TAP, it will decrease the damage they do to you.
TAPPING THE SHIELD CARD: If YOU have the shield card and you use TAP, it will increase your defenses making you take less damage. If your FOE has the shield card and you use TAP, it will decrease the their defenses making them take more damage.
TAPPING THE SPELL CARD: If YOU have the spell card and you use TAP, it will apply a decent HoT (Heal over Time) spell to you, restoring a portion of your health for the duration of the spell. If your FOE has the spell card and you use TAP, it will apply a decent DoT (Damage over Time) spell to your for, eating away portion of their health for the duration of the spell.
RAISE THE STAKES:
20 Mana. 2 Sec cooldown.
Each cast of this spell makes the effects of Tap and Clash more powerful, but it also hurts you and leaves you more vulnerable. Stacks up to 4 times. Consumed by Tap.
This skill will increase ANY of the card effects listed above, but it's a dangerous tool. Raising The Stakes in any game of chance has its concenquences...
STACKED DECK & BEAT THE ODDS:
Passive Skills.
Stacked Deck: Luck increased by 15%
Beat The Odds: Crit, Dodge, and Hit chance are increased
CLASH:
10 Mana. 6 Sec cooldown
Deals damage to your target based on Raise The Stakes stacks, but does not consume them.
This power is your mini-nuke, and the best part is that you can still use your stacks of Rasie The Stakes when you Tap the cards you have in play if you time it right, but again... you know what could happen if you bet it all on one big crit.
This class is also the original LUCK BASED class, so you will need to visit Cysero in the tub in Yulgar's Inn to gear up!
Your CRIT can get pretty high with the ALL LUCK build but try your own builds and see what works best for you!
Remember that buying AQW Card Game also earns you the CardClasher Achievement Badge on your character page and in your Book of Lore! You will also find the Secret Bonus Item on the CardClasher Achievement Page now as well!
When playing CardClasher, you can totally get by on using nothing more than Draw and Tap, but where's the fun in that?! The whole point of this class is to offer you some risky skills that can GREATLY increase the effectiveness of the skills... or send you crashing to the ground as you bet it all and lose big time.
