Looks like the info subs for the 2024 calendar weapon & shield were released this week. Is it possible to get the subs for the misc, too?

The release is live! And as an added bonus, the Festive Elf gear has returned to the Golden Giftboxes for the holiday season.

I'll be honest, the Drakath part of the story didn't engage me all that much. Partially because I barely remember who the guy is in AQ aside from the accidental daddy of Entropy, and thus remain unsure if I should enjoy this random dude's suffering or think Warlic is a dick for taking out his bad mood on someone feeling too guilty to hit back, and partially because the fights just aren't engaging - spam attack button, use skill when hp is low; there's no interesting gimmick like you had when playing Warlic and no cool tricks, which is rather disappointing considering the guy's apparently meant to be a rogue archetype.

I did find War's Interlude more interesting, though. It's not all that often that you see the antagonist's preparations - usually they spring on you from vague foreshadowing with fully formed armies, trained, armed, and ready to commit atrocities without a second's hesitation. It's very nice to actually see some of the work put into building those armies.


P.S. Also, putting all guardian giftboxen in a single shop is much more convenient. Thank you!

I quite like the spell. A blind spell with -20 save similar to darkness orb shroud is not bad at all. Casting it while wielding Luminous whiff is quite good.

The pet isnt my cup of tea. I don't use pets/guests for damage unless I'm elevuln stacking or its a status eater. So trigger based is "meh'

The armor and shield should be interesting, though.

For a quick refresher on Drakath: He was one of the very first enemies in AQ, later revisited throughout the Devourer Saga and beyond. First seen as a feared Darkness Dragon, he was later repeatedly reanimated as an undead weapon, using the Cold to control him through his hatred. This resulted in the eventual anomaly of being fully restored through said hatred, then later used as a proxy controller for an undead army, until Diviara used the Cold to make him release his hatred. A key backstory detail being gradually fleshed out is that he is the son of the late Dethrix Drakath II, known as the Monster King, who reigned before Alteon. This was presumably part of why Prince Drakath contributed to the Calamity of the Far West before betraying Sepulchure, as hinted at in Darker Memories.

Enjoyable quest, though I wish there was more to Drakath in battle. I'm sure he'll still be feeling that one next week!
