Defender Class Skills

Defender Class Overview

Originally released alongside the three verification classes Guardian, DragonLord, and StarLord, the Defender is meant to act as a group fight class that draws Focus from the monster to protect their allies. 

The new Defender class has similar purposes in mind, but with powerful new effects to really punish your foes. Unlike the other three classes released in this bloc, Defender is more aimed at lower level players, and thus has no level requirement to use.

• Guardian Class: available to verified AdventureQuest Guardians
• DragonLord Class: available to verified DragonFable DragonLords
• Star Captain Class: available to verified MechQuest Star Captains
• Defender Class: available to all of the above

Each week in November, we'll release another verification class update. Earlier this month, we updated the AdventureQuest Guardian, DragonFable DragonLord, and MechQuest StarLord Classes! Get all the details on those class updates here, here, and here. THIS week, we've got... the Defender Class update! Read on for update details: what is changing, how to get your own, and the new balance details.

Defender Class Update Details

Recommended enhancements: Recommended enhancement: Wizard, Lucky. As a Defender, your selfless spirit defends others in combat from all threats across lore, but in times of peril you can shine above the rest.

Mana Regen: Defenders gain mana when they:

• Strike an enemy in combat (more effective on crits)
• Are struck by an enemy in combat

Skill Breakdown

Stanced Strike

Rank needed: Auto attack
Target: Enemy
Max targets: 1
Type: Physical
Range: Melee
Cooldown: 2 seconds

Stick em with the pointy end of your shield. 

Shield’s Blessing

Rank needed: 1
Target: Friendly
Max targets: 6
Type: Physical/Magical
Range: Infinite
MP Cost: 10
Cooldown: 6 seconds

Shield your allies and share your power! Reduces incoming physical damage by 25% and increases all outgoing damage and haste by 10% for 10 seconds for up to 6 friendly targets.

A basic support skill with a long duration and no drawbacks. Has a powerful mana support bonus as well!

Infernal Shield Slam

Rank needed: 2
Target: Enemy
Max targets: 1
Type: Physical/Magical
Range: Infinite
MP Cost: 8
Cooldown: 3 seconds

Strike back at your foe using a portion of their own power and set them Aflame, dealing damage over time for 4 seconds, stacking to 5. Additionally, applies Infernal Shield, increasing your outgoing damage by 3% for 6 seconds, stacks to 5.        

This skill has 2 stacking effects, a boost for yourself, and a stacking DoT for your target. In addition to powering up your Shield of Wrath, this skill uses a function similar to Classic Defender’s Retaliation, dealing more damage the more damage you receive in a fight.

Shield Veil

Rank needed: 3
Target: Friendly
Max targets: 6
Type: Physical/Magical
Range: Infinite
MP Cost: 15
Cooldown: 10 seconds

Coat up to 6 friendly targets in a layer of protection, reducing their incoming physical damage by 40% for 4 seconds. Also applies Defender’s Pavise, reducing your incoming physical damage by 20% for 10 seconds. If you have Infernal Shield stacks, they are consumed to apply Shield's Veil, a small HoT for 10 seconds.

This skill offers healing for yourself and a tremendous damage reduction effect for you and your allies. Between Shield’s Blessing, Shield Veil, and your Rank 4 passive, Defender has a tremendous amount of physical damage reduction. However, casting this removes Infernal Shield, reducing the amount of damage you can output. You’ll have to alternate between attacking and defending to get the most out of your skills.

Shield of Wrath

Rank needed: 5
Target: Enemy
Max targets: 1
Type: Physical/Magical
Range: Medium
MP Cost: 10
Cooldown: 6 seconds

Vent your accumulated wrath and strike your foe with fervor, dealing high damage based on how many stacks of Infernal Shield you have (but does not consume stacks).

This skill deals extra damage based on stacks of Infernal Shield. It doesn’t consume stacks, which means after reaching full capacity you can keep dishing out heavy attacks as long as you have the HP or support to not need to heal.

Passives

Halo of Protection 

Rank needed: 4
Type: Passive
Reduces incoming physical damage by 20%

Selfless Decree

Rank needed: 4
Type: Passive
HoT and DoT power increased by 15%

Energizing Rally

Rank needed: 10
Type: Passive

When you call upon the healing power of your shield, each ally healed has a 20% chance to reduce their mana costs by 100% for 3 seconds. This passive is unlocked at rank 1.

Shield’s Blessing allows you to temporarily make any of your party members’ MP costs free for 3 seconds, turning the tide of battle and allowing otherwise impossible feats to be accomplished.

Conclusion

Defender is a solid choice as a low-level player support class, as well as a high-level player support class with a very specialized set of abilities. 

Unlocking any of the three verification classes also grants access to Defender (as well as Classic Defender), providing another choice of class for those that upgrade.

Read on for important information

A few important tips to remember:

• All of this year's event rare items are available individually from the Black Friday Shop in your game menu until the event leaves in December
• The Hollowborn Collection Chest is a seasonal item and will not be included in the Dark Holiday Collection Chest.
• In order to prevent shop abuse, the Dark Holiday 2020 Collection Chest and DeadM0g pet cannot be sold.

HollowBorn Collection Chest

The Hollowborn Evoker set, created for Black Friday by AQW Community artist, Yo Lae, is a Black Friday seasonal  collection chest. Unlock a TON of dark, deadly items for 5,000 AdventureCoins when you get the Hollowborn Chest pet (items available in the pet's shop).

The Hollowborn Collection includes:

The Hollowborn Chest is seasonal, and will return every Black Friday. (Please note, the Hollowborn Chest does not receive new items each year, and will not receive the 2020 Hollowborn Nightmare farming items. You can battle the boss this weekend to unlock those.)

We’re very sorry, but we cannot offer exchanges or compensation or exchanges on IoDA choices when an item is recoloured and released for Black Friday or Cyber Monday anymore.  The IoDA program allows you to access rare items you would not otherwise have access to. Due to this, and the fact that recolours are not the same as the original items, we can no longer give any additions bonus or compensation for these items.

Tomorrow: StarCaptain Class Updates

Verification Class Updates

Our verification classes -- Guardian, DragonLord, Star Captain, and Defender -- are unlocked by AQWorlds heroes who have also upgraded in one of our 2D, single-player games. They've been asking for years for their exclusive classes to get updates... and now the time has come!

• Guardian Class: available to verified AdventureQuest Guardians
• DragonLord Class: available to verified DragonFable DragonLords
• Star Captain Class: available to verified MechQuest Star Captains
• Defender Class: available to all of the above

Each week in November, we'll release another verification class update. Earlier this month, we updated the AdventureQuest Guardian and DragonFable DragonLord Classes! Get all the details on those class updates here and here. THIS week, we've got... the Star Captain Class update! Read on for update details: what is changing, how to get your own, and the new balance details.

Star Captain Class Overview

Welcome to the Starlord rework! Renamed to Star Captain, the class now aims to honor the tradition of choosing a GEARS University House while excelling at what Mecha Pilots are best at, one on one combat. The first three skills behave similarly, but change the focus of the class depending on which you used first, and the final skill is an all out attack that can only be activated once you’ve used the first three skills enough times.

Before there was AQWorlds, there was... MechQuest

GEARS University, the most acclaimed Mecha Pilot institution in the Solaris System. Here you will learn a wide variety of skills required to become a fully licensed Mecha Pilot, including but not limited to, Energy Blade Training, Mecha Combat, Home Economics, and Insect Extermination. And let’s not forget about our annual GEARS Games, where you face off against other Pilots to earn points for a House of your choosing. We welcome all aspiring Mecha Pilots to GEARS University and we look forward to seeing you soon, but only if you survive the entrance exam that is, enroll at mechquest.com!

Harvest of Nightmares: Friday the 13th

Join us for the final Friday the 13th event of 2020!

Join Aurelio Voltaire and Memet the Nightmare Moglin for first week of our three-part Harvest of Nightmares  holiday event as we celebrate Friday the 13th and Harvest Fest! After a year of battling natural disasters and unnatural horrors, Aurelio Voltaire and Oishii the Troll Chef have planned a double holiday extravangaza to help raise everyone's morale. 

But when our favorite gothic pirate party planner slips into a nightmare he can't escape from, he and Memet will need your help to break free. This weekend, log in and battle terrifying creatures and ferocious food as you race to escape the Nightmare Realm and return in time for the Harvest Feast.

Join /gothicdream to begin your adventure:

• Fight through Aurelio Voltaire's nightmarish house
  
• Battle delicious-but-deadly food
• Assemble a hero's most intimidating combat gear: Gothic Teddy Pajamas
• Battle a boss who wants to put you to sleep... FOREVER

And don't miss the rest of this month's update. See the full release lineup here: AdventureQuest Worlds calendar.

Aurelio Voltaire Returns for Friday the 13th!

Friday the 13th and Aurelio Voltaire go together like Evil Armies of Undead and Horror Movies. So of course, this Friday our always-positive, family-friendly game team and community want to welcome him back for another musical event! This weekend, slay your enemies to the sound of music from his album "Raised by Bats". Once you've finished the event, make sure you check out his Youtube series, "Gothic Homemaking with Aurelio Voltaire," and stay up to date with all his dark adventures on Instagram! 

Aurelio Voltaire is the maker of music, films, books, comics, toys and... mayhem. He has appeared in almost ALL of the AQWorlds Friday the 13th events... and has become a fan-favorite for our players (not to mention beloved by goths, trekkies, and music-lovers in general). 

On behalf of the entire AdventureQuest Worlds team, we want to thank Aurelio Voltaire for being a part of this special event! 

Your luck is in... Gothic Rewards!

Friday the 13th may be all about bad luck, but not this weekend! We've got two all-new armor sets available in the Gothic Dream merge shop:

• the Teen Slasher, a dark and destructive seasonal set available that will make you Scream
• the Unlucky Hoodie, deceptively cute and definitely deadly

Plus a plethora of gothic house items that drop from the monsters and boss in this weekend's event.

Lost to time and found again, the DragonLord class has evolved! Inspired by DragonFable, this new version of the class offers many powerful new tools to battle multiple monsters at once by imbuing yourself with the powers of ancient dragons.

The new AdventureQuest Worlds version of DragonLord draws heavily from DF’s DragonLord, and also DragonWarrior, DragonRogue, DragonMage, and the titan DragonRider. Take on one or more elemental aspects, and then tap into their full power with your Primalization ability! This class is designed to fight multiple monsters at once, while harnessing the full potential of the elements provides you the power to take on much more powerful creatures.

2. Access the 'Unlock Verify Shops' menu in the Account Manager

• Guardian Class: available to verified AdventureQuest Guardians
• DragonLord Class: available to verified DragonFable DragonLords
• StarCaptain Class: available to verified MechQuest StarCaptains
• Defender Class: available to all of the above

Each week in November, we'll release another verification class update. And first up... the AdventureQuest Guardian Class update is here!

Guardian Class Overview

The Guardian class in AdventureQuest Worlds takes inspiration from the gameplay of AdventureQuest. Heroes who are familiar with the world of Lore in that game may feel right at home when using Guardian in this game.

In AQWorlds, Guardian plays as a very powerful glass cannon, dealing incredible amounts of damage, but being unable to take very much itself. Having many skills with their own costs of use, and not a high amount of healing means that Guardian won’t be able to properly play to its full potential by itself. However, if you find a few companions and guests to help buff and heal you, you’ll be able to really unlock your full power.

How to Unlock the Class

If you are a Guardian in AdventureQuest:

1. Log into the Account Manager site at account.aq.com
2. Access the 'Unlock Verify Shops' menu in the Account Manager
3. Verify your AdventureQuest account
4. Log back into AQWorlds and /join tower
5. All verified Guardians can purchase the original Guardian Class. If you are level 40, you can purchase the updated class from Wyrm for 0 ACs.

If you are NOT a Guardian in AdventureQuest:

1. Create an account at www.Battleon.com (if you don't have one yet) 
2. Upgrade it to become an AdventureQuest Guardian on this page
3. Follow steps 1-4 above

November Seasonal Set: Harvest Hunters

Available every year from November 1st - 30th

November is when the Fall season REALLY hits in the United States. Pumpkin Spice everything is in stores, the leaves have fallen (or are starting to) and the temperatures around the underground lab finally drop below 70 degrees Fahrenheit. This is harvest time in the Northern Hemisphere, and Thanksgiving in the United States, Canada, China, Germany, Grenada, Japan, and Norfolk Island. To help ALL our heroes celebrate, this month's seasonal set features the Harvest Hunters - the HeroHunter and Lycan Stalker armors.

November Set: The Harvest Hunters

Unlock the Hero Hunter or Lycan Stalker armors and all the Harvest Hunter accessories!

There are two ways to get the gear:

1) Total package: Buy the entire set directly through the website for $9.99 USD 

2) Individually: Buy each of the individual pieces from Garek the Traveling Gear Merchant in Battleon. 

The total cost to buy all of the gear individually is 4,000 ACs, so getting all the gear from the Harvest Hunters pack is a pretty sweet deal (you save 2,000 ACs).

The set includes:

• Hero Hunter Armor
• Lycan Stalker Armor
• 3 helms 
• 3 capes
• 5 weapons
• character page badge

Seasonal Set Details

Each month, we'll feature a new set, available only during that month every year. 

Seasonal Sets
January: ArchFiend OverLord
February: Obsidian Samurai
March: Legion Warseeker
April: Bio-War Cultist
May: Lord of the J-Sixth + Lightning Lich Lord
June: ShadowZard Mount + Rider

August: Urban Assassins
September: Celestial Naval Commander

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as the monthly upgrade bonus? 

Monthly upgrade bonus gear is an extra reward for buying AdventureCoin or Membership packages. Seasonal set packs are bought separately. Just like the Flame Dragon Warrior pack, you can buy the entire set directly, for one price, on our site. You can ALSO buy the individual pieces in-game.

This set will return EVERY November.

If this isn't the monthly upgrade bonus, what IS the bonus in November?

The next upgrade bonus will be available from November 2nd - 30th, and is the Apocalyptic LichLord armors. 

What if I just want ONE of the items?

You're in luck! Talk to Garek in Battleon. He'll be selling the individual pieces of the set through November 30th.

Where do I get my gear if I buy the full set through the website?

You'll find it in your Book of Lore.
