A thousand years ago, Erebus tried to claim Commander Paladin and his forces as undead servants. The Lady of Light saved their minds, beginning a legacy of eternal paladins -- Redeemers whose relics have fallen out of favor for too long. This week, we are revitalizing that legacy to match its classic form. Somewhere held in the deepest vault of Leprechaunia, the Communicant Set awaits!

Hello Guys:)

Just saw the upcoming Communicant Set, and it looks really good! Is it going to be the same as the recently released Classic version, in terms of its effects and abilities?

@The Hollow Would it be possible to also have a Guest version of that awesome Lion pet? I think it would look epic and majestic for a character to be "flanked" on both sides by that lion!

And would it be possible to have a Defensive pet this time? All other "Paladin" themed pets are Offensive (Daimyo, Communicant's Oath, Maximus Moglimus, etc. all do increased damage towards Undead and Zombies. We don't have a Defensive pet, one that can reduce incoming damage from Undead, Demons, Zombies, etc. This would synergize very well with the Set itself.

And one last thing - that Lion looks really large, so it might be a good idea to slightly increase the "height" of the Communicant Set, maybe make it as large as the Paladin Armors (of which it is actually an extension of).

Keep up the great work guys!

 The Void revamp will not be happening for a while. Yes, the Communicant Set will function similarly to the Retro Golden Set. The Pride, Father's Day, and Independence Day Limited-Time Shops will be leaving this week when the new Sharks LTS arrives! It is looking like a Friday release this week.

 At this point, I'm more interested in what the quest revamp will look like, although seeing some meaningful differences would be nice as well. The quest is amongst some of the most tedious in-game so being able to expedite wherever possible and add modern features is always going to be a plus.

EDIT: Just noticed the LTS button is back in the homepage. Thanks! Although it would be nice to just cut straight to a shop so we can manage our inventories instead of clicking into the LTS button, and then into one of the shops.

It's nice to have the Paladin alternative for Necromancer users who also wish to cheese bosses with Zorbak ally assist + adaptive resistances to undead.

 We need a little extra time for everything this week, so the release will be Saturday!

 @Hollow: Thanks for the update, although one tiny question: I saw that in the preview poster there looks to be a golden lion type image. Will the old Daimyo pet be replaced, retained/updated or something else will happen? I guess I could just wait and see for the release but it would be nice to know before hand. Etiher way looking forward it tomorrow!

Daimyo is now forever entangled to the paladin class itself, he's a guest summon in it. They'll probably just stick him in the paladin shop.

I will be very sad if they replace Daimyo's art. Old art should be celebrated, not thrown aside.
If the new version should be a pet, make it a new separate pet instead. AQW just releases new items for art updates, instead of forcing them on older items, and I personally think it's the only sensible solution: Give people the choice of which they want.

But hey, if the new version of Daimyo is released as a pet, perhaps make a Retro Daimyo pet too, so it's not only the original owners who have the choice.

 We are wrapping up testing and the release is still coming later today! Daimyo will not be replaced by the new lion -- Kam is using both pets! The new Lion will be 105+ only, inflict Fear. Daimyo will be the standard one, inflicting Burn.

I don't suppose you can share if there's more extra 105+ items with neo communicant as per the tradition of the past few years with MC sets.

Another light fear pet from MC quest... should have been Spirit Rend with a another name, so we could turn opponent into gold.

I agree. I really wish it was a spirit rend pet. There are many fear pets already.

Just clone Fu-Dog and make the lion spirit rend.

I like this a lot.

I like the idea of the poster below me too.

Oh no :(

Another fear pet? We have so many of those already.


What we really need are defensive pets, and not the + M/R/M boosters, but the ones that reduce incoming damage. The recent Kitsune pet + guest are good in that sense, so it would be better to have a pet that reduces incoming damage from Undead, Demons and Zombies.


Fear is just so common, in weapon + spell + pets.


I hope they reconsider the Lion pet.

 Just zoomed past the Golden Set Quest one last time. Looks like the new item names are: (bold is new)

spoiler:


Weapons:
High Communicant's Grandeur/Glory/Splendor (Glory is a staff, Splendor is a Bow)

Armors:
High Communicant's Zeal

Shields:
High Communicant's Valiance

Pets:
High Communicant's Oath
High Communicant's Courage


Bought them all and going to see what's up.

Also going to try out Lion's Roar and Zombie Bane Staff to see if those got updated either.



Once again I'm going to be real thankful that the quest is going to get a revamp. That last playthrough was very unpleasant even if I managed to zoom through it because I've capped for the day. Also hoping the same will get done with the update of Reign/Shadow when that happens too.

 The updated Communicant gear has arrived as well as the new Shark Limited-Time Shop! The Communicant Misc is still being worked on and will release next week.

The items are all very well designed, although I thought there might be a face too. The misc is the face? Would it be possible to add this OG face in the shop next week, along with the Misc:

It's from AQW, same Golden Set, but that Lion helmet face is superb. Perhaps that Lion helmet can be a Z-token face or something?


Also, the new Lion pet looks great and has an epic attack animation. But damage + Fear % is miles below Creature 72.

 @Sphinx Jevoha
Creature 72 pays half damage and MC for its Fear. Communicant's Courage pays half damage. That's 5% of the worth of a pet or 2% Melee difference in what's paid for the effect. One is not "miles below" the other.

 The communicant light weapons are very good after the buff. Is it intentional for the magic version to work with light spells only or is it a bug? The new shark weapon also looks promising but I haven't had a chance to test it out yet

Don't mind if I ask but will the Zombie Bane Staff & Lion's Roar get updated too?

Oh it looks both the Communicant and Golden Axes are now 0-proc too. Intentional?

@Bolter: I sure hope them losing their specials is unintentional and that it will be fixed soon.

It's intentional, Kamui remarked about that when we were testing the retro golden axe when it was released and the communicant set is for all intents and purposes mechanical copies of that.

Wow these Shark Week Items are amazing for beastmasters. Increased water damage PLUS bleed for water guests and pets? Are there any water pets and guests that already inflict bleed? And combine that with the Neko items or Necromancer armor, I'm sure it makes for a great battle

One of my alts is having a great time using the Teapot/Kettle miscs so maybe the shark pet will be worth while for that character.

well the axes both Retro and Communicant not having specials is intended so it seems. I do hope the Zombie Bane Staff and Lion's Roar will get updated too.
