Alganon October Newsletter

Greetings from the QOL dev team.

Pumpkin Smash 2012

As is tradition, each year the citizens of Alganon gather together in the capital cities to celebrate the season and enjoy its festivities. The high point of these festivities spells excitement and treats for people of all ages and disaster for the clean streets of Asheran and Xanjuix Karr. The annual Pumpkin Smash has returned!

Doomgourds (pumpkins) have been placed around both main capital cities (Xanjuix Karr and Asheran). Break open a gourd by attacking it to receive candy and other goodies such as armor dyes and the rare Horseless Headsman. With every pumpkin smashed you'll have a chance to win the following:

  • Repair Tokens and Dyes
  • Halloween Masks and Candies
  • The Horseless Headsman (Ghost Pet)
  • Bag o' Bones (Skeleton Pet)

In addition to the items above you also have a chance to find a rare Golden Ticket in each Doomgourd you smash. These tickets are each worth 100 Tribute when traded in to a GM after the event is completed (please see the forums for turn-in specifics)! The event runs from October 29th at noon PST through noon PST on November 1st. As with last year the tickets have no limit and each player can hold as many as they find, so good luck to all and let's get smashing!


Expansion Update

With the completion of Alganon's first main expansion on the horizon, we wanted to update everyone on the status of the Rise of the Ourobani and show you all a little of what we've been working on. The expansion is on track and and we are busy testing and adjusting much of the new content in order to get ready for its release. We will be releasing more specific information in the coming months. We know our players are anxiously awaiting new content and we are extremely grateful for all of your continued support while we wrap up our labor of love. We're extremely excited to get this content out to everyone as soon as we're able and can't wait to see many Ourobani running around the world!

Expansion Pack Screen Shots

Very soon the world of Alganon will be expanding and with it will come major change. As the Ourobani stake their claim to the continent of Aeon, the Asharr and Kujix have a new threat to contend with. Will they be friend or foe? Only time will tell, the gods themselves cannot say.

Alganon: Rise of the Ourobani will have these features and lot's, lot's more!

  • A brand new playable race, the Ourobani
  • A new, unique leveling experience in the new continent of Aeon
  • A new combat companion class playable by all races... The Warden

About Alganon

Alganon is a fantasy-based MMORPG that allows thousands of people to play together in a virtual world that features a rich history dominated by commanding deities, powerful weapons and armor, deadly magic, epic quests, ancient places to discover, the utilization of detailed tradeskills, and more. Designed from scratch and based in a uniquely created world, the goal in designing Alganon is to provide "Simple Gameplay with Unlimited Growth in a massive world of immersion and interaction."

Part of achieving this goal was to create a game that is easy for anyone to play, but also to build the game so that even the most skilled and hardcore gamer has the potential to grow beyond their expectations.

Our development team at Quest Online have designed everything from the ground up, tailored to feedback from the community about what you want to see in an MMO.
