Dage Collection 2025 & Dark Caster

Beleen | Friday, March 28, 2025

Dage Collection has arrived… and it’s a STEAL!

Seriously. It’s like we’re literally giving away souls here. The brand new Dage Collection is packing INSANE value: 19,855 DCs worth of Legion loot, but you get EVERYTHING for just 7,000 Dragon Crystals!

That’s over 60% off—or, to put it another way, buying 1 dragon mount, 1 pet, and 1 weapon individually costs the same as the entire collection.

Are we CRAZY?! Why did we do this!?

Listen. Maybe crazy. Maybe not. Maybe Dage made a deal with the Grim Reaper and got a little too rambunctious… and perhaps obliterated his ACL in the process… or maybe, just maybe, we love making our players crazy happy.
