Spring Is Here! Again!
The icy grip of Winter is beginning to wane on Delta V, giving way to green, life-giving vegetation. However, Delta V is a dangerous world, with dangerous creatures, and even more dangerous plants. Based on extensive studies in the Biological Preserve, Delta V scientists have developed new weapons known as Botanical Battlegear.

These mutating items come in physical and energy damage variants and they will be available with the 10,000 Varium package! This package comes with TWO mutating weapons plus an exclusive core: Growth Serum. This is an active core that increases your character's height while buffing the base Support. Cast a shadow of fear across the battlefield!

Azrael's Anguish and Annihilator package will not be leaving this weekend, but it won't be around much longer!


Spring Rares Return!

Spring Cleaning

Since we released Omega, Titan and Rabblefroth have been hard at work cleaning up bugs and trying to optimize performance, but that's a challenging task to do in parallel with new content releases. This week, Practel was in the Lab to personally help Titan smash many outstanding bugs. Check out this video on our Official Youtube Channel to see our development in-progress!

Despite that progress, it's important to remember that smashing bugs is an ongoing process. We can't fix bugs if we don't have enough details to determine why they are occurring. Artix.com is making great strides toward an improved bug tracker, but for the time being, the AE forums is our primary source for bug reports.


Dead Battery?

Often in game development, something will seem like a great idea when it's initially conceived, but upon closer examination loses it's luster. Dead Battery seemed like an interesting idea coneptually, but in testing the effect was very confusing. It looked more like a bug than a feature. For the time being, we are tabling Dead Battery until we can rethink and rework it into a better, more useful, more clear core.

We're always on the lookout for new core ideas from the community. Post your ideas here!


Contest Update!

Wow! Thanks to you guys, we now have an absolutely staggering amount of screenshots to show off Omega! Although we'll always need screenshots, we will be placing a hold on the contest starting Monday 18th @ 6:00PM EST. At that point, we will begin awarding prizes to the best entries and prepare them for use on the EpicDuel website. We will allow for more entries again in the near future, but right now the amount is overwhelming!

If you haven't entered the contest alread, you still have some time to post your shots!


More to Come!

Squee! Celtic gear <3 Shall be picking up both dagger weapons.




Mother1 -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:13:27)

Nice to see design notes, however at the same time yet another 50 dollar exclusive promo? Oh joy -_-.




Cookielord12 -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:14:30)

Botanical Battlegear sounds odd.




Ranloth -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:15:38)

It's not like the core is game-breaking so no harm in there? Not everyone found Omega nor Azrael appealing or just came back to the game. You ain't forced to buy it + people claimed no one will buy them because it's just art. Oh irony. :)

Either way, Celtic Cleaver shall be mine.. Now off to Juggernaut to farm Credits for it, or just for the upgrade. Running very low on 'em.




Master Smasher -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:16:41)

a core that increases base support, I have a bad feeling




ansh0 -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:18:42)

No balance changes?




Mother1 -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:23:47)

But on another note it sound like the azreal's bane the Celtic clever is going rare. So unfair all the cool old items are now going rare without warning.




Rayman -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:24:08)

Trans: But Celtic Cleaver Isn't Coming Back.

---------
2 New Bots? Baby Flower Bot and A Bunny Bot?

Mother:
These Swords Promo Items Go rare after 2 years, Frostbane only came 2 years, same with Celtic and Azrael.




Ranloth -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:28:20)

Oh.. It's not?! ;-; Got my hopes up too much it seems. D:




CyberMatic -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:50:56)

Thats not the finished drawing of the promos, is it? [:-]




ReinVI -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:51:56)

yeah its depressing if the cleaver doesn't come back that was the one weapon I was hoping for... along with some not so god awful ugly easter weapons :/

The flower..grass.. thingy thong is probably not a bot, just some new NPC. But the bunny is a bot. How I know this? Right click the pictures and copy image link and you'll see the URL names.

CyberMatic -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 15:59:20)

Its a good think I found this out before I spent the money on the artix points.




ReinVI -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 16:11:27)

meh I can see using the new promo as comic relief use the core and yell hulk smash before pummeling the opponent in melee :P

and just because it says bunny_bot means nothing it could be a robot that the rabbits have created and it could be a enemy/ npc...

( doesn't mean that I don't want it if it IS a bot though >.> would be pretty cool having a bunny bot )




l Chop Suey l -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 16:15:56)

A promo that can buff up support while the height of the character will be large.... hmm sounds like support mercs will enjoy this :O




kosmo -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 16:32:14)

I doubt we will have nothing new to buy in-game this friday exept for old odd wepons.




ansh0 -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 16:37:51)

All I ask for is balance.


ALL-MIGHTY BALANCE!

Oh and Wabbit Wobots :3




Ranloth -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 16:50:45)

Balance is taken care of by Rabble. He's working on it but details are included in the Patch Notes, on Fridays. Thought it's a pattern for a while now.




JariTheMighty -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 16:51:39)

I think the balance is better than it has been in ages. Nothing really stands out extremely overpowered, and Mercs have seen worse days.




Made 4 Sunny Days -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 16:56:43)

I'm going to be rather upset if the celtic cleaver is now gone. Especially if there is no new st. paddy's sword to replace it (seeing as azreal bane had new weps replace it) I could really use a good energy sword now, was really looking forward to it




Angelic77 -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 17:27:33)

I am very dissapointed if Celetic Cleaver doesn't return i was very exited for it. Hopefully there will be a new epic st paddys day sword that would be avalible in physical version and energy. If not then i am very dissapointed[:(]




Made 4 Sunny Days -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 17:31:33)

Haha if it is left outta the release, I say we start a petition to get it placed into the game!




Angelic77 -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 17:35:36)

Lol if we do im in =D




Ranloth -> RE: March 14, 2013 - Spring Is Here! Again! (3/14/2013 17:44:00)

Just remember, petitions are against the Forum rules for quite an obvious reason. Twitition is fine but cannot be posted on Forum (obviously), but doubt it'd do much. :P
