With Lords of Destiny you met the mysterious Tekyans and discovered the stunning environment of Pearl Ring, Crystal Mountains and the new Astral instances. Let’s not forget about another feature that was a feast for the eyes that brought new action to your adventurer’s life! Tep’s Pyramid is now the place to be for the daring guilds of Sarnaut, as the Dominion also brings a new level to PVP activity! And much, much more is to come in the future and we are glad to have you as a part of the Allods Online Community!

Unlock the Treasures of the Prophetic Card of the Apocalypse!

Thursday, April 25 2013 - 2:53 AM
by piopico


The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse has long been thought to be just a legend to scare little Gibberlings who dare to not finish their plates. They gallop through the allods looking for those who they deem should not survive; the few people who have glimpsed these malevolent creatures can’t decide whether the horsemen or the mounts are scarier! Pestilence, War, Famine and Death are their names to strike terror upon first glimpse!

Don’t go down on your knees and prepare your survival speech just yet, as you may soon find yourself as one of the horsemen bringing the Apocalypse to your enemies!
 

From Thursday, discover Hell with the Prophetic Card of the Infernal Treasurer in Allods Online!

 


The new Prophetic Card won’t only bring chaos, but many rewards for those who manage to decipher it: vanity costumes, crystal chips, gold dust, some great new shoulder accessories, other great prizes and… the set of the Doomsday Horseman! Before showing you what we’re talking about let’s get to the details of the offer first!
 
From Thursday, April 25th until Wednesday, May 1st you will be able to loot the amazing Prophetic Card of the Infernal Treasurer, giving you a chance to win exclusive (but evil) pony mounts and a mysterious costume!


To unravel the treasures of the Prophetic Cards, Ancient Compass will be available in the Item Shop from April 25th until May 16th!


It is now time to explain how the Prophetic Cards work for our new recruits, and to provide a reminder for our veterans!


For players who joined our adventures in the recent Lords of Destiny expansion, let’s start with the basics of the system. From the 25th of April, players will see a new item dropped by monsters in-game, it is the Prophetic Card of the Infernal Treasurer. This item allows players to play a game of chance, and win some truly amazing prizes! They start dropping from mobs from the 25th of April until the 1st of May!
 
To take part in the action, any player that wishes to use the Prophetic Card needs to obtain an item called an Ancient Compass, which is available from the Item Shop from April 25th until May 16th. This will allow them to scan the Prophetic Card and see what prizes are hiding within!
 
You will then be given an opportunity to turn over one to four cards and winning the prizes that lie beneath, depending on how many Ancient Compasses you have in your bag! Don’t worry if you have some Prophetic Cards left over after May 1st, as you can open them after that date with your Ancient Compass until their expiration.



 
These can be obtained through gPotato, Gem Shards, and Premium Crystals. Be advised that any Ancient Compass obtained through Premium Crystals are bound, but if using gPotato or Gem Shards you can trade or auction them!
 
Players should also be aware that prizes won through the Prophetic Card of the Infernal Treasurer are bound to the character, so when opening these, make sure that you are using them on the correct character! Keep reading to find out more details about this new mechanic.
 

Prophetic Card of the Infernal Treasurer: Contains many prizes. Can be traded. You will be able to gain them from monsters from April 25th until the May 1st. Beware, these cards expire after 15 days, so don’t wait too long before using them!
 

Ancient Compass: Used to open the Prophetic Card. Can be traded or auctioned unless obtained with Premium Crystals. Available in the Item Shop from April 25th until May 16th.

 

Stroke of Luck

 
Those here for the last event may remember that each time they used a prophetic card, a bar below the interface (see the screenshot above) would fill up, and every 60 points accumulated would give them a Stroke of Luck.
 
Once this bar is full your interface will change color and you will be given a chance to win one prize from a selection of some of the very best prizes available in this event!
 


Prizes

As for previous Prophetic Cards events, you will have the chance to tame exclusive mounts! And unlike their cousins, the evil ponies won’t be cute and fluffy, but will bring the Apocalypse to Sarnaut! Brrr….
 



Excellent news for our mount lovers everywhere! For those of you who prefer to know how useful your mounts are in getting you out of tight spots when questing, here are the stats:
 


But we know there are lots of you who will be looking at these mounts and this offer, for the sake of pure vanity. After all, who doesn’t like showing off their unique look, new costumes and sparkling mounts in Novograd and Nezebgrad? This Prophetic Card will be bringing back the much sought after class costumes for all the archetypes, including the new set of the Doomsday Horseman!


There will also be the beloved shoulder accessories, but before we get to them, let’s refresh your memory with some of the class costumes.




But now for some new reasons for vanity! This Prophetic Card will be reintroducing the shoulder accessories, ranging from a new lovable creatures to a book of magic. Have a look and see what you think!


Talking again about vanity, there is a brand new item to discover! We are talking about the amazing Doomsday Horseman set!
Have a look at it!

So many awesome prizes to win, so remember to get looting those Prophetic Cards of the Infernal Treasurer as soon as they start dropping from the 25th of April!
 
The Apocalypse has never felt so good in Allods Online!

Ancient Compasses will be added to the Item Shop in the latter morning PDT of Thursday, April 25th.

[Event] Dominion Ally Design!

Wednesday, April 24 2013 - 9:01 AM
by piopico


Lords of Destiny not only introduced a new PvP battle known as the Dominion Wars, but it brought along six trusty allies that one could choose from to assist in one’s Dominion engagement. These allies range from a battle golem that blasts enemies with its cannons to a forestfolk healer that soothes allies’ wounds with its curative magic. It’s fun to mix and match the Dominion allies depending on your character for a real intense strategy!
 
Now it’s your turn to take the role of Igor and conjure a fictional and unique Dominion ally that will aid its master on the battlefield. Whether you want to create an ally with brute rage or something more delicate that can charm its way out of trouble, that will be up to you as the puppet master to manipulate your monstrous creation.
 

Ready your art tools and brain juice as the Dominion Ally Design event will last from Thursday, April 25th to May 5th on our Facebook Fan Page.

 
Event Rules:
 
• Design a unique Dominion ally with the following requirements:
- Draw/design what the Dominion ally looks like.
- Think of the Dominion ally’s name, role (i.e. DPS, tank, support, etc.), one main spell/ability, brief background story of how the ally enlisted for the Dominion Wars.
• Once the Dominion Ally Design event has been posted on our Facebook Fan Page this Thursday, upload the picture of your Dominion ally through the “Photos” section.
• Reply to your picture with the ally name, role, spell, and background story as a comment.
• Reply to your picture with your character’s name and server.
 
Prizes:
 
We will choose our 10 favorite entries and award the winners with 1,000 Premium Crystals!

Set your struggles aside for a day as we lose ourselves in a bubbly day of wacky entertainment. Break some salty sweat with an epic crab race of a lifetime!

[Event] Doublin’ PioPico!

Monday, April 15 2013 - 2:18 PM
by piopico


 
Now that I’m getting more settled in my new home (rainy land of Ireland), it’s time for a fun event that’ll show you some of the local sights while letting you have some exploration! For this event, you will need a camera (or phone with camera), two legs, and a good sense of direction with your IRL (in real life) surroundings.
 
I thought it would be fun to show some of the local sights around the city while making a copycat event out of it. With that said, I will show 5 pictures of myself at specific locations around Dublin. You must find close locations around where you live IRL and take a picture of yourself at the same type of location for all/any of the 5 pictures.
 
Of all the copycat entries, I will choose my favorite picture from each of the 5 types of photos that I have shown, and award the owner of the picture with 1,500 Premium Crystals!
 
This means you don’t have to copy each of the 5 pictures since it’s understandable that some of you may have not easy access to the same IRL settings, but it will increase your chances of winning since you have more entries that could be the winning photo of that photo type.
 
Rules:
 
1. Photos #1 – #5 will be posted everyday from Monday – Friday on Allods Online Twitter
 
• Photo #1 – Monday April 15
• Photo #2 – Tuesday April 16
• Photo #3 – Wednesday April 17
• Photo #4 – Thursday April 18
• Photo #5 – Friday April 19
 
2. Once you see the picture tweeted, you must find a nearby location in real life that is similar to the setting shown in the photo. With a camera (it’ll help to have someone take the picture of you), have your picture taken that mimics the setting. IMPORTANT – Make sure you hold up your hand and give a “thumbs up” so we know it’s actually you in the picture or else your entry will not count.
 
3. Retweet the daily tweet with a link to your picture, write your character’s name & server, and include the following hash tags – #allods, #Doublinpio
 
4. Each photo of a particular setting will be judged against other photos of that same setting. For example, a picture of you in a park will be judged against other pictures of players in a park. This setup makes it fair for those who are not capable of taking pictures at each of the 5 locations.
 
5. You have throughout Sunday, April 21st to retweet any of your entries. One retweet per each / any of the 5 picture entries. Winners will be announced on Monday, April 22nd.
 
Prizes:
Of all the copycat entries, I will choose my favorite picture from each of the 5 types of photos that I have shown, and award the owner of the picture with 1,500 Premium Crystals!
 

Have fun doublin’ PioPico and enjoy pictures of PioPico around Dublin, Ireland!

 
Remember, you can only participate in this event if you follow our Allods Online Twitter. If you have not joined the Allods Online Twitter yet, now is the time!

Furry up for the Gibberling Festival!

Friday, April 12 2013 - 7:58 AM
by piopico


Warning: The following announcement may be hazardous to an Orc’s mental health

Every so often a special time arrives in Sarnaut, one of fur, fun, more fur, some rage, even more fur and the sight of the occasional drunken Gibberling family asleep in the streets of Novograd. It’s a tradition that dates back to the initial treaty between the Kanians, the Elves and the Gibberlings, one that safeguarded the most sacred of Gibberling customs, the random festival where they get drunk and wear silly outfits! We’re talking of course about the Gibberling Festival!
 

Yes, it’s that time of year where we celebrate the most beloved (kinda) of Sarnautian races with their very own festival! So what’s in store for the streets of Novograd and the fields of Lightwood? Well from Monday, April 15th, until April 24th, we’re going to be making every Gibberlings’ time in Allods Online an extra special one!
 
As we all know from our Sarnautian history classes, the Gibberlings are adventurous little people, their inquisitive nature often landing them in trouble. But this side of them has also led to some of the most important discoveries, namely falling off an allod in a fishing boat and realising that they, and us, could float in the astral! And from this simple accident the Gibberlings have spread across the entire astral, in search of fun, danger and nice shiny things. Well each year the most daring of our furry little friends return to Novograd with a wealth of stories and sackfuls of their most prized treasures.
 
To celebrate their race, they happily offer these to any Gibberling with Special Holiday Coins to use through the Holiday Committee, found in Novograd itself!
 
So whether you’re a Brawler, an Animist, a Trickster or a Seer now is your time to shine in some fancy Gibberling costumes! But that’s far from all, as you will also have the chance to gain a special Bagpipe emote ability that will make you into your very own One Man Band!! Well a Three Gibberling Band I guess….so a regular band I suppose….it’s the Gibberling festival!!
 


So to snag these amazing Gibberling outfits, and to learn the bagpipes, you simply need to be a Gibberling and take your Anniversary Coins to one of the Holiday Committee representatives around Novograd! For you League playing, non-Gibbs out there we have some good news too, the Gibberlings will be able to put all of the outfits up for auction in Auction House! So you too can celebrate the most important, tiny creatures in all of Sarnaut in style!
 

Festive Gibberling Headgear: Can be traded or auctioned

Stylish Gibberling Headgear: Can be traded or auctioned

Festive Gibberling Outfit: Can be traded or auctioned

Stylish Gibberling Outfit: Can be traded or auctioned

Bagpipes: Bound, can only be used by the Gibberlings
 
But what of the Orcs and the rest of the Empire? Well don’t worry, because Yasker has been known to throw a good party or two in his time. Knowing him like you do you can be sure that he will take note of these festivities and plan a gala of perhaps even greater size for his troops! Be sure to keep an eye on upcoming events in Nezebgrad to find out exactly what he has planned!
 
For now though it is the League’s time to celebrate! Elves and Kanians should be aware that any accidents that befall them at this time due to drunken Gibberling behaviour will not be brought before the Novograd City Council, they fear the wrath of a Gibb on too many cocktails just as much as you do!
 
The Gibberling festival runs from Monday, April 15th until April 24th, so don’t miss out on picking up your own set of bagpipes and a stylish outfit to match!

[Event] It’s Time to Celebrate Uar!

Tuesday, April 09 2013 - 7:50 AM
by piopico

Each of the Twelve Martyrs are great in their own way as they fill their chosen ones with blessings to help them on their journeys through Sarnaut. We use their protective abilities, they help us regenerate after a long, hard battle and they offer guidance to those who seek it. So let’s celebrate them individually! Each Patron should have their own designated holiday in which their worshipers can benefit of their blessing and offer up even more prayer to the great Martyrs!
 
From April 10th until May 10th, all those born under the sign of Uar will celebrate their patron and receive their blessings for 20 days!
 

 
For those of you asleep during history classes in Nezebgrad and Novograd, here’s a brief overview of the Great Martyrs:
 
Men and women on these allods are never alone. They are protected by the blessing of a mysterious set of powers, called the Great Martyrs.
 
Shortly after the Great Cataclysm, the Magi began to notice strange events of the original magic. Although their appearance seemed to coincide with the Astral invasion, their precise nature remained a mystery for many years. While the Astral was known to have a magical influence on Allods and all their inhabitants, 12 special magical auras were discovered, each with unique properties and characteristics.
 
Over the centuries, experiments were conducted on these forces. It was discovered that each inhabitant of Allods could perform a ritual to seek protection from one of these magical auras, but for a long time the nature and origin remain shrouded in mystery.
 


 
So what better way to celebrate a patron than by praying to it extra hard during it’s holiday season? That doesn’t mean we want you to rush out to the Deserted Farm on a one man mission to end up in purgatory for a 24 hour period! We want you to fight with honor and courage, slay as many enemies as possible, and give thanks to Uar afterwards!
 
How can you take advantage of these benefits? Just log in to your character with Uar’s symbol, and enjoy the FREE 20 days blessing! It’s that simple!

Scouts! Blend with Nature during the Silent Days!

Thursday, April 04 2013 - 7:40 AM
by piopico

 
You often curse at these furtive soldiers: you see them, then they disappear, only to reappear and finally finish you off on the battleground in one shot! You used to mock them for their devious tactics, but deep inside you are glad they are on your side… For all the Robin Hoods, Clint Bartons and Oliver Queens of Sarnaut:
 

We are glad to announce the start of the Scout’s Holidays: Silent Days!
 
Participate between Friday, April 5th and April 14th!


Before presenting you with some great accessories, you should know one thing: Silent Days isn’t all about celebrating and in doing so, letting your guard down. It is the time for invisibility masters to test their recruits and see if they are fit to be the best of the best!
 
Good news for all rookies, not only will you have the chance to get your hands on the most dashing costume but you will have a special potion to help you vanish into thin air!
 
If you are eager to discover the great rewards for being a furtive master, go and visit the Holiday Committee Members of your faction to find the following items:
 

Garments of Dancing Shadows – Can be sold or exchanged
 

Hood of Dancing Shadows – Can be sold or exchanged
 

Cloak of Dancing Shadows – Can be sold of exchanged
 

Sharpshooter’s Quiver – Can be sold or exchanged
 

Potion of Disguise – Can be sold or exchanged
 

Operation bogeyman: SUCCESS!

 
Besides the innovative Potion of Disguise, discover the great accessories available for your character:
 

–> Set of Dancing Shadows
–> Cloak of Dancing Shadows
–> Sharpshooter’s Quiver

If infiltration wasn’t your strongest suit in the academy, no need to hide behind the curtains or paint your face in order to get these articles! Just ask a friendly Scout, unless he is more the type to use the Auction House to sell his wares, as the items can be sold or exchanged!
 
Celebrate with your comrades and be proud to be a Scout between the 5th and 14th of April!
