+1 to Andlu's point on the Forgotten totem. Whether truly forgotten or intentionally left out, the joke writes itself!

I think most engaged players expected this to be included given the inclusion of the equivalent Liquefactor in the Reign set updates, and this is disappointing, so there is a point to be made here for consistency and communication for expectation management.

This isn't to undercut the positive intentions and hard work from staff going into such a packed release - it seems clear from the communication so far that they work very hard to try to cater to the (many +varying!) player requests for such popular releases.

This, combined with the need to make requests at the time of release due to how AQ scheduling works, does however leave players in something of a lose-lose - either 1. make the request and feel bad at adding to the workload (and of course possibly be disappointed that the request cannot be granted) , or 2. say nothing and as Andlu said, expect the item to effectively never be updated, which is of course a real shame.

I think, in terms of constructive outcomes, players should not feel discouraged from making such requests, whilst hopefully dealing with some inevitable disappointment reasonably, and should trust staff to be able to deal with such requests without it adding excessively to the workload - they've been doing it for a long time successfully

  The Hollow
AQ Lead


The Gatekeeper Armors, Guest Summon Spell, Faces, and the powerful Gatekeeper's Shadowsteel Blade are now available! Find the entire collection in both Reign I and Shadow I shops. The classic and Exalted Gatekeeper armors are also both available in the Z-Token Shop.

This was well worth the wait. The art, animations and effects are all so nice to have all in one. It'll definitely be a permanent main slot addition.

Just used the shadowsteel blade, wow, no wonder you guys needed the time. Absolutely worth the wait and the sacrifice of the totem imo. Amazing update to the Alnaphar sets! Also, good call making them available at the first shops of the set, helps with endgame players not having to journey throughout the whole long quest (I say this despite me loving the story, sometimes not everyone has the time to grind a whole MC quest).


P.S Might want to recheck the Level 150 version of the skill of the weapon, seems to be a bit middling despite the trigger

The skills on Retro (and I suppoed Exalted) Gatekeeper are certainly interesting*, and the changed up resistances are very, very nice indeed.
But why are the guests now costing SP instead of MP? Also, could retro versions of the guest spells be made as well?

* After further messing around, and finding a comfortable strategy for my character that uses the armor, I can now say that "interesting" doesn't adequately describe how I feel. "Amazing" seems far more appropriate, and properly conveys the emotional oomph I currently feel. Very well done, to everyone involved opening the doors to this new age of the Gatekeeper!

Others do write-ups better but here's a rough explanation.

Fire/Dark FD

Has a 2 hit base attack

Comes with 3 skills

1- Ele seeks fire/dark. Maybe spell-like but probably just dmg skill.

2- Toggle for a heal from burn/panic.

3- 2 version toggle. One inflicts panic and grants incoming damage reduction of about 20%. Other seems to make mobs vulnerable. I haven't bothered yet.

Looks like the npc at Alnaphar. Good animations, effects and art. Everyone should grab it.
