Legendary Epic Supporter on Artix Entertainment

Get ready for gifting! The 35,000 Varium package is now LIVE in-game for 20,000 APs! This is by far the best value we've ever offered so if you want to stock up before gifting without having to reload in December, now is the best time to do it! This package also comes with the Ultra-Rare Legendary Epic Supporter 2018 Achievement, and it will only be available for a limited time. This incredible deal will leave the game just as gifting arrives sometime on November 30th, to be replaced by the still-awesome Epic Supporter package and Omega Wolf Pack (yes, we changed the name based on the amazing new concept art from Charfade!)

The image above only represents concepts and the package may not include all items or they may differ from the final versions. We'll publish the final versions as soon as they're ready!

Special thanks to Titan and Charfade for tagging to help out with this update! It feels good to have them back, even if it's for a little while. Now where's Rabble?

New Treasure Hunters!

As mentioned last week, we've cleared the old rarity point leaderboard to make way for a new system with a new calculation that excludes duplicate items. Those who had at least 100,000 rarity points on the old board should have receive a Collector achievement based on their old score. Those participating in the new board, which should update when the daily cycle refreshes, will receive an evolving Archivist achievement. You will need to visit Charfade to re-appraise your gear to participate! Remember, to climb the new board will require possessing a wide range of rare, not just 100 copies of one. Good luck, and happy hunting!

Wish Upon a Star

The design notes post last week really set the EpicDuel community on fire with discussion about the possibilities of the new top 10 prize, Epic Wishes. As I expected, some of the ideas went a bit off the rails, and others went off into another galaxy. In order to keep the idea creep contained and make sure I'm not spending all of 2019 fulfilling wishes, we've narrowed the parameters of the wishes. In doing so, we've also expanded the number of winners from the top 10, to the top 15! If you were just out the running last year, this is your big chance!

Examples of things you can wish for:

Nearly any item in game (possibly other AE games with the blessing of their staff)
A small statue of your character (bust), sign, insignia or graffiti permanently place on the game world
A unique badge achievement just for your character
A unique hairstyle
A personalized sketch from Nightwraith
A custom version of an existing item (small alteration, like a recolor)
An item with another item's core (must be the same category of item)

This list isn't necessarily all-encompassing, and if you have a creative idea that can be done within a reasonable deadline, we're open to it!

Things that you can't wish for:

Currency
Refunds
Stuff in other AE games
More wishes (duh)
Wish transfers
Immunity from moderation
Unbanning accounts
Reactivating disabled accounts
Any other player's account
Ability to cheat
EpicDuel's source code
To be game staff (that includes mod tools, colored name, etc...)
To change game staff (i.e. Fire So-and-So and hire Such-and-Such!)
Altered battle record
Unearned achievements (1v1 champ, 2v2 champ, etc...)
Rare achievements (Infernal War Hero, Frysteland War Hero, etc...)
Unique Skills (for balance reasons)
Features (this is better left to suggestions)
Promotional packs to return
Development phases returning
Generally, anything that effects large numbers of players beyond the wisher will not be feasible. This wish is for you!
Anything deemed illegal, unreasonable, offensive, or too complicated to fulfill within a reasonable timeframe.

Hopefully this list will help you make your decision easier without being too restrictive. We'll work with the winners to make sure their wishes are fulfilled to their satisfaction within the parameters established above. If any winner is found to have cheated, they will not be eligible for a wish and will likely have their account disabled. Stay clean, stay safe, have fun!
