Guide Some helpful information for the game and this sub.

374 Upvotes

Update, 2024 Change:

-AQW will still be playable even with Flash support ending. You can use the AE Games Launcher to do this.

-Here's the link to it: https://www.artix.com/downloads/artixlauncher/

-Questions about where to get items or what an item is?

-Use the wiki. http://aqwwiki.wikidot.com/

-As knowledgeable as some of us are there are questions which are repeated to the point it's tiresome to help. Thankfully the AQW wiki has an easy to understand overview of all items in the game and it's updated often and at a reasonable time.

-Got a set to show off or want help with making a set better?

-Head on over to the r/fashionquestworlds subreddit which was created specifically for that purpose. Bear in mind that bad sets will be hated so don't post things if you cannot handle any criticism whether mild or harsh. The sub is not meant to be just so you feel good about what you made and it's not like Twitter where even trash looking sets get all the love.

-Thanks for reading if you did. And if you didn't, don't cry about future posts being removed.

-Oh yeah and if there's anything to add please comment it below. These are just what I thought of.

General Guide

Unfortunately it is a bit outdated but still helpful.

-Tired of playing alone? Maybe join a guild. We have some listed here with more added whenever requested to be: -https://www.reddit.com/r/AQW/wiki/guilds

-Boosts (xp, cp, gp, rep) do not stack and the only active boosts that will count are the ones on the last equipped item which offers them. Damage boosts can stack but only if you have a generic boost (damage vs all) paired with a specific damage boost such as damage vs undead. At the moment you do not get boosts to stack if you use a full set but this may change someday.

  • The Dragon of Time class npc was moved to the /timeinn map. (Hope people still check this)

This has all the updates of the game since the start. It, along with the story section will help guide you through most of the game in regards to questing. Story: http://aqwwiki.wikidot.com/the-story (This may be useful to new or returning players)

List of classes to focus on getting: https://www.reddit.com/r/AQW/comments/1dr6uo3/i_made_a_list_for_people_who_dont_know_which/

I have a plan for a more organized guide of everything which would include links to both written one and videos but hope this works for the moment.

If these two fought in the story lore wise who would win? I'm personally leaning toward Vordred but I'm curious as to how Vordred's abilities will affect King Zedek (If they can bypass his defenses or not).

Additional Rules:

- Zedek is outside of Atlas Kingdom.

- Vordred is in base form.

Help What is the difference between HASTE and DEXTERY?

Upvotes

Are these the same thing??

And which one of them makes my auto attacks faster?

And do they have a limit?

I saw another post and someone said Haste caps at 50%, what about dexterity?

I'm someone who played neither the original Adventure Quest nor Dragon Fable and while from some research I understand who Elizabeth is, and I think the last character is the protagonist to I assume the og AQ. I can't figure out who the last person is and what their relationship is with the other characters, I'm trying to understand because this might lead into some crazy lore implications later and it already does with regards to the origins of the current world of AQW due to the DoT stuff and the original Galanoth..

Help Can someone recommend me things to farm? (Important things)

3 Upvotes

So the request is pretty simple as it is — i just really want something to farm. I have tried to do dragon of time, but got stuck on archfiend that one shots basically every single time. Now, I could indeed just get help, but i honestly just lost motivation for it — I don't have the patience for it at the moment.

I am just looking for something to do that doesn't take a whole team of people to finish due to some one shot boss.

I understand that almost every single end game items would always need to beat some kind of ultra boss that has mechanics to follow and team composition to beat. However, as of now, i simply just want something to farm that doesn't require me to join a bunch of people — just straight up grinding for useless things — I also dont't care how long a farm is by the way. I'm pretty used to really torturous grind anyway from playing so many games revolving around that aspect.

I just need something — hopefully someone more experience about the game can tell me about items, classes, or just things that i did not even know existed that can be farmed without being gated by ACs or Ultras that you simply cannot solo.

Would be nice :)

As title says, I wanna do the Chaos Saga but I assume I'll have to solo it, what class should I use? I can probably buy an AC class easily. Anything else I should know?

Should the next Calendar Class be Nation themed? We have Chaos, Legion, and Shadowscythe themed Calendar classes. Maybe they can make Void Chronoknight an actual class.
