Things may go a little different than you remember in this strange re-imagining of the original AdventureQuest "Vampire vs Werewolf" saga.

Weekly updates?

Updates will likely be random, especially as the game ages. Currently there's a lot that needs doing but so far the devs have been quick to recognise problems and criticisms with the game. Now they've just got to act on it.

I think weekly updates is too optimistic for a game like this, especially if they're going to add lots of meaningful content.

(Thanks to 'Fistfantastic' for details)

Does my account carry across all device?

Of course it does! This game is multiplatform! Enjoy!

Differences between PC/Mobile?

For the time being it's just about the same. Ideally I figure it's better for the two to be as equal as possible to not give people on PCs a massive advantage. On that note in the future there'll be keybinds, settings and a better looking UI for the PC.

(Thanks to 'Vexx' for details)

Will AdventureQuest 3D be in Flash like your other games?

Ultimately, yes. But the current version is in a plugin called Unity3D -- which is sort of like a 3D version of Flash.

(Thanks to 'aq3dwiki' for details)

How does this new 3D game fit in the AE Universe?

AdventureQuest 3D is a new game, and will take place on a new world, with a brand new story. As I am sure you have guessed, you will find a healthy number of iconic and familiar AdventureQuest monsters and items in this new world.

What is Alpha/Beta Testing?

Most games are not promoted until they are in the Beta test phase. But, here at Artix Entertainment we have always included you in the development of the games from the VERY beginning. For AdventureQuest 3D, we are going to have more player involvement than ever before. There are three phases: Alpha --> Beta --> LIVE RELEASE.The goal of Alpha testing is to shape the game. It is not unlike working with a ball of clay which we are going to mold into an amazing piece of art. There will be bugs... oh my will there be bugs. Then there is Beta testing, where we have a working game and are developing content. Again, there will be bugs... oh my will there be bugs. The LIVE RELEASE is when the game is considered stable and ready for all players.

What is an AlphaKnight?

AlphaKnights, also known as an "A3K" are our elite testers. They are there from the beginning. Helping us squish bugs, running tests, improving chat, running tests, improving gameplay, running tests, and basically building the world ...and running tests. For each test that an AlphaKnight participates in, they earn a certain number points. Convienently called, "AlphaPoints." When the game goes live, you will have a character page on the Legend of LORE website which will display your achievement badges for other players to see. Anyone who becomes an AlphaKnight will receive a special "AlphaKnight" badge on their AdventureQuest3D character page and it will also display their points (up to the cap) so they can prove how much they helped. *NOTE: Just for qualifying to become a AlphaKnight, you automatically get 200 points and the badge. In addition keeping score for an AlphaKnight (A3K), these points will have a mysterious use in the future.

What will change at launch of full game?

Nothing will reset at 'launch'.

Essentially Open Beta is a 'soft' launch with the understanding that there WILL be bugs and changes.

(Thanks to 'Phaedros' for details)

Everything is subject to change though remember.

What does the $20 Guardian come with?

The ordinary Guardian comes with the following:

Guardian Class
Exclusive Guardian Armour (mostly low level; chest piece is cosmetic)
Upgradable Guardian Blade (it's a nice gap-closer between current weapons and future ones)
Increased inventory space (30 additional slots)
Guardian Tower
2,500 Dragon Crystals (Premium currency)

(Thanks to 'Fistfantastic' for details)

Buy Guardian then upgrade to Collector's?

Yes this is possible. If you buy Guardian then decide you want Collector's it will be offered at a discounted price to you. Only benefit buying them seperate is you will get more DC.

Classes in the game currently?

Currently there is Mage, Warrior, and Rogue, and Pirate (Guardians have to be paid for), but you can swap them on the fly so you're not just stuck with the one you chose at the beginning.

There'll be more coming later.

(Thanks to 'Fistfantastic' for details)

How is EXP calculated from a kill?

Exp is calculated based upon the level of the mob you defeat. It is not based upon damage dealt. So its the same no matter what amount of damage you do or level you are.

Seen this mentioned a few times by new people so thought would add it.

How to add a friend?

First click on their character in game. Then click on their health/mana bar in the top of the screen. Then finally click add friend.

Private message friends?

If your looking for a seperate tab chat then your out of luck currently and no one knows if anything like that will happen yet but you do of course have your whisper option.

/w (playername) (message)
/whisper (playername) (message)
/r (message)

/w and /whisper will both allow you to message another player while /r simply will allow you to reply without having to type there name. Note /r will reply to the last whisper you got.

When does Mogloween end?

It changes every year but it usually lasts at least a month everytime it comes.

How to get the Pumpkin Lord Set?

Right, this one question i get alot in game from mainly the newer players.

To get this set first of all for everybody's sake be a decent enough level as if your not you will struggle and also may annoy some other players. Suggested level is 13.

Step 1. Click the crystal in battleon on the right hand side to teleport to the event.
Step 2. Do the original quests given by the cauldron on the left stairs
Step 3. After the original quests are complete head over to the right hand stairs and start running that dungeon.
Step 4. After collecting enough materials craft the Pumpkin Lord Set from the cauldron.

WARNING: This event is seasonal and it only appears in October

Party/level requirements for Dungeons?

As most of you are aware as of now joining a high level dungeon using a key can be very fraustrating when a lvl 4 joins aswell while hopefully that will be a thing of the past. There is confirmation that they are looking into this with all of the feedback they have recieved since the launch of Open Beta.

Player party/groups?

Partys are here! All you have to do is click on the charecter then click their health/mana it should open a list click invite party then wait. you'll be notified in the chat saying "you have joined the party"
or "_______ has declined your party invite"

Dungeon keys?

So currently in the game you start with 20 Dungeon Keys that slowly regenerate over time or once you run out you can purchase a full refill of the 20 keys for 100DC.

Keybindings

Yes, there are keybindings. Click the menu button in the bottem right corner then click settings.

Are there any bots?

Seriously. I've seen this in game asked multiple times. Your asking to get banned and you ruin the game. Do us all a favour and just quit. IF YOU SEE ANYONE ASKING ABOUT THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE REPORT THEM STRAIGHT AWAY AND SCREENSHOT FOR MORE EVIDENCE.

Chat commands useable by everyone

So far that i know of we have:
Emotes:
/comeon
/cry
/exorcist
/facepalm
/fistshake
/levitate
/mj
/squat
/thewave
/wave

Whisper Commands:
/w (playername) (message)
/whisper (playername) (message)
/r

Additional Commands:
/join (area you want to join)
/fullscreen
/report (name)

How do you get battle gem shards?

[SaVe7n]

I was one of the Alpha Tester, from what I could say is this is an excellent guide for newcomers to the game. I would recommend reading this.

[Bartimaeus]

Lol, so much has changed since this was made.

[My Agent Bob]

So i just started a character and was wondering, i try to pick things up and it says full inventory, i only have two items...boots and a staff both equiped and started with...
how do i inventory lol?

[john warhammer]

ummm where do i find my guardian blade?

[Accel]

the EXP needed for 14-15 is now 78,000, rather than the previous 738,000. People who made the grind with the old EXP total (or who at least passed the new EXP total) got a special cape called the Wrap of Determination.

[Accel]

It is likelly worth noting that the generally agreed-upon class to use for the Doomwood Bridge grind is Warrior for their spin.

[Accel]

This is a sick guide! Excellent work!

[beepbeepfire]

This is a long ass guide
