Greenguard Regional Loot Update

Greenguard Regional Loot Update

This week we continue the roll out of Regional Loot with Greenguard's Cloth Set. It can drop in four different colours from any monster in the Greenguard maps and will drop at your level. This should help smooth over the leveling experience for players in those areas while also giving all you veterans some new threads to obtain. Next week we should have the plate set out to go along with this.

Class Balance Update

Oracle

Reasoning: Oracle’s Cosmic Reverberation has been providing extremely high healing output on a very short cooldown, with no resource cost. We want to preserve the skill’s identity while shifting it toward a meaningful defensive cooldown rather than a spammable sustain tool. Oracle in it's current statebrings strong team utility through Protection Shred and %HP damage, so reeling it in to be more in line with the other classes in the game.

Changes:

Cosmic Reverberation
- Cooldown increased to 3 minutes (up from 20 seconds)
- Duration increased to 10 seconds (up from 5)
- Now applies 10 stacks to the target; each instance of player damage consumes one stack
Bad Omen
- Debuff changed from –5 Protection to –0.5 Protection, stacking up to 5 times
Threads of Fate
- Now deals a flat damage value equal to 500% of your Attack Power
- This attack ignores Protection
- No longer deals %HP damage

Samurai

Reasoning: Samurai’s stance‑switch mobility allows it to avoid nearly all incoming monster attacks, making it far safer than intended for a high‑damage class that is offering very high reward with little to no risk. We’re increasing the stance‑swap cooldown to reduce its ability to bypass mechanics while keeping the core gameplay intact.

Changes:

Wind Cutter / Tempest Flip
- Stance‑switch cooldown increased from 1 second → 10 seconds

Ranger

Reasoning: Empowered Shot should feel more impactful when you press it. We're experimenting with it's damage for now and will monitor the results.

Changes:

Empowered Shot
- Damage increased by 20%

Rogue

Reasoning: Rogue struggles to maintain poison uptime when fighting multiple enemies. This change improves multi‑target consistency and lets Rogue transition more smoothly between targets.

Changes:

Poison Strike
- Now hits in a small cone in front of the player
- Can apply poison to multiple enemies
- Requires being close to the target to land the attack

Priest (Formerly Healer)

Reasoning: Priest is available at character creation, but its early‑game experience has been rough compared to other starter classes. We’re expanding its core ability to improve both solo play and group utility.

Healer > Priest: Healer moving forward will be a role played by many classes so it didn't really feel like it made sense to have a class named Healer and a role named Healer. The Healer class as it was essneitally filled the role as what would be traditionally a Priest or White Mage in other RPGs so it just felt like it made sense. A master of light magical specialized in healing. They probably hang out with the Paladins.

New Skill:

Wave of Light “Concentrate your powers into a wave that heals up to 5 allies and damages up to 5 enemies in its path.”

Looking Ahead

More class adjustments are planned in the coming weeks. Moglomancer, Paladin, Ninja, and several others are currently under review for buffs and quality‑of‑life improvements. Would love to hear feedback on which classes you believe should be looked at for improvements and where.

Mythic Mortis fixes

We've adjusted an issue causing Mythic Mortis and his minions to scale with the amount of players. Additionally Mythic Mortis' boss room had places players could get out of bounds and target him with ranged classes. This exploit has been patched out.

Chibi Prince of Darkness

Due to fan demand, we've added a chibi pet to earn from the Prince of Darkness this week. However, act fast! Mogloween will not be around forever!

Broomstick Mounts

If you open the Premium Travel Shop, you'll find a selection of Broomstick Mounts just in time for the Mogloween season! Take flight and unleash your inner witch or wizard.

Black Regal Halo

I saw players requesting an additional Regal Halo to match the new promotional wings. Your request has been granted! A new Regal Halo has been added to the Regal Halo shop for Daily Bosses.

Umbral Ascendant Wings

The Umbral Ascendant Package delivers exceptional value for players who want to stock up on Dragon Crystals and unlock an exclusive, prestige cosmetic set.

For $99.99 USD, you receive:

• 35,000 Dragon Crystals + 17,500 Bonus Dragon Crystals: A total of 52,500 Dragon Crystals, giving you more than double the value of purchasing the $49.99 pack twice.

• Umbral Ascendant Wings: A striking, premium cosmetic designed to stand out in any battle or town hub.

• Exclusive in‑game title: “Umbral Ascendant.” A rare title that marks your character as one of the elite.

This package is built for players who want maximum value and a signature look that sets them apart from the crowd.

Inventory Expanded (Again)

We’ve increased the maximum amount of Bag Space you can purchase by 500, giving players a lot more room to breathe. If you’re running out of space during quests, farming sessions, or seasonal events, you can now pick up additional slots directly from your inventory screen. Just hit the plus icon in the bottom‑left corner and choose a package of 1 or 10 Bag Spaces, each costing 200 Dragon Crystals. It’s a simple quality‑of‑life boost that makes managing your gear, crafting materials, and collectibles much easier.

Pumpkin Smasher Limited Time Shop

We've added two variants of the monthly promo to the Limited Time Shop. Check out the Blue Pumpkin Smasher and the Candy Pumpkin Smasher (and their house item variants) before they leave the shop at the start of next month.

Monthly Promo: Pumpkin Smasher

The Pumpkin Smasher has smashed through, breaking onto the scene as this month’s promo lineup. Mogloween-themed pumpkiny goodness is yours when you purchase any package from the Upgrade Shop. Guardians also get a bonus RAW variant. These hammers will be available until the first update of next month.

Battle on,

Clarion and the AdventureQuest 3D Team
