Arena at the Edge of Time: DragonLords' Legacy
Hey there, heroes!

DragonFable's 20th anniversary month begins with a new challenge and board at the Arena at the Edge of Time!




The Legends of Lore board has appeared, and with it, its first challenge: Dragonlords' Legacy!

The rebellion's heart, Alden Alteon, charges into battle with his loyal dragon, the mighty Corvak! Will you be able to withstand the strength of their bond?

Then, the dread DoomKnight Sepulchure walks the path of Darkness and Doom alongside the undead savior, Fluffy. His doomed ambition corrupts all... Can you brave the shadows, or will you fall to Doom's influence?

Defeat both of theses legends of Lore to earn your vbery own Necrotic Blade of Doom replica! Besides being a powerful Darkness weapon, the Necrotic Blade of Doom also has an on-hit special that increases non-crit and crit (direct) damage by 10%!

Do you have what it takes to survive the DragonLords' Legacy? Head over to the Inn at the Edge of Time to find out!

DragonFable's Anniversary celebrations have also already begun! Earn 50% more Dragon Coins on select packages, and also earn 10 Dragon Coins from your daily quest instead of 3!

Also this week, we have a pair of new cosmetic weapons for sale!



The Equilibrium Key of Creation and the Equilibrium Key of Destruction are here to celebrate DragonFable's anniversary month! You can find them in the Book of Lore for 600 Dragon Coins each!

Anniversary specials from previous years have returned, too! Check them out in the Book of Lore!


And that's all for this week!

First impressions, having cleared the solos: So this officially threw "characters can't be reused in the Inn" out the window, so everything is on the table now. It's nice having a fight where Sepulchure is less of a pushover, although I think he is still mechanically pretty boring and could have been done a lot better. Considering this fight got delayed by a whole day, I thought there would be more to this mechanically, but I'm rather underwhelmed. As for the actual board, this feels a bit like it'd be "Lost Fables 3", which is what I kind of wish it would be; we've been told multiple times that they all had to band together to fight Slugwrath, so I think it would have been pretty cool to have a fight like that instead: Valen + Alden vs Lord Slugwrath (+ whoever supported his reign and fought for him).

Maybe there's something I missed (haven't attempted the duo rn so idk what interactions there are there) but I'm honestly not too impressed by this release. The mechanics are largely underwhelming and the fights aren't complex. I hope I'm proven wrong when I do the duo, like how Malifact had his own interactions with Stabina+ Trelix.

Considering this is supposed to be the fight to celebrate 20 years of DragonFable, this was a massive blunder in my opinion. I don't particularly mind characters being reused, but this just didn't feel well executed. Not having unique OST for the duo fight also just kind of makes this feel like a rather low effort fight (even though I'm sure this fight took as much time and as many resources as every other fight).

I'd also like to say that the reward feels somewhat lacklustre. This is just kind of Exalted Apotheosis, but with +6 mainstat and -13 CHA/END/WIS/LUK, which imo makes this functionally a sidegrade, arguably a bit worse because it might mess with CHA breakpoints meaning you have to invest more points into CHA to compensate. In theory, you'd probably lose a bit more than -13 END, or you take away from mainstat which makes the +6 mainstat buff a bit redundant.

The special is good, I suppose. Lucky Hammer + Ebil Dread combined into one neat package. It isn't super exciting but I guess saving 1 item slot is nice.

It aint ebil dread, ebil is only 5%. This is not only double that value but also boosts crit too bc noncritting classes are still inevitably going to crit. I havent run the math but this might well be one of the most insane specials in the game for classes like plord or pirate. Cant wait to give it a whirl
