BW2: Generation 19 Pets are Here!

Permalink

Posted in Bush Whacker 2.

Tags: bw2, gen 19, new content, pets, 2025.

Gotta find 'em all!

A new selection of critters are now available to be your companions!

Those weirdly random abandoned eggs scattered all over Bushwhackia have been switched up and all new pets are ready to hatch when you accept the "Find an Egg" quest from Misty. She will also have all the Generation 19 eggs available to purchase for Bush Bucks during the "Find an Egg" quest.

Other changes to Misty and Hank for Generation 19:

Misty will no longer let players abandon Gen 18 pet eggs that they are hatching (they're now too rare). Only current generation pet eggs can be abandoned during hatching. Please note that if you're in the middle of hatching a pet, then that egg will still hatch into whatever pet it would have been before.

Generation 18 pet eggs can now be found in Quester's Satchels (with the same limitations as the Generation 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 eggs, which will still be available in satchels as well.)

Hank now sells a random assortment of hatched level 1 Generation 19 pets (instead of Generation 18) for Bush Bucks in his pet store.

PAGAS changes for Generation 19:

Generation 19 pet eggs are available to buy with DNA in the PAGAS store, once you have hatched at least five Generation 19 pets. This include 8 unique variations of the new pets.

The Pet Progress dialog now includes Generation 19 pets. Another 18 new pets that all players can unlock!

Added 1350 unique pet collection reward: 10k Nutritious Training Kibble

And now, without further ado, the information you've all been waiting for:

Generation 19 Pets:

Howard
Grown Terrier
Goose
Moofus
Orson
Grey Wolf
Orange Starfish
Blue Footed Booby
Shrimp
Labrador Duck

Champion Update: Krond

Permalink

Posted in Idle Champions.

Tags: idle champions, idle, champions, new content, update, champion spotlight, krond, liar's night.

Krond was born of a union between an academic human wizard and a mighty orc fighter who led a nomadic orc community. Raised as a fearsome warrior and arcane scholar, he studied these arts with equal passion. Krond's parents tragically lost their lives protecting their family and friends during an enemy raid. This moment changed Krond, and he swore revenge upon the world. Taking up an ancestral warhammer called Unity, Krond set out to make things right, one way or another.

Krond has been reworked to become a true Support, greatly increasing his versatility, while still allowing him to be a DPS Champion.

For all the details on this Champion Update for Krond, read on!

Idle Champions: Dragondown 8

Permalink

Posted in Idle Champions.

Tags: idle, champions, event, new content, update, hank, krond, dragondown.

It's the Summer Solstice in Faerûn, which means it is time for Dragondown celebrations!

While the City of Waterdeep celebrates Dragondown by burning dragon effigies to symbolize the city's victories over invading dragons, some smaller celebrations focus on ceremonial bonfires and charms, with mock-spells and chanted prayers performed as the sun sets.

But something has gone wrong in Luskan this year, where locals have drawn the ire of a Bronze Dragon and its kin...

The first Dragondown was the 13th limited-time event in Idle Champions, launching on June 25th, 2018. This year marks our eighth Dragondown event, which introduces Hank the Ranger, the leader and final member of the Saturday Morning Squad affiliation, with today's launch. Our second Featured Champion, Krond, will be receiving a significant update, with a new Champion Update blog coming on Friday, June 6, before his launch next Wednesday, June 11.

For details on Dragondown Year 8, read on!

Featured Champions

Hank is the steadfast and courageous leader of the group of friends that has been swept away into the perilous realm of Dungeons & Dragons. As the Ranger, he wields his signature Energy Bow to fend off danger and light the way forward. Though the weight of leadership tests him at every turn, Hank’s tactical insight and unwavering resolve keep the party moving forward in their quest to find a way back home.

Learn more about Hank in his Champion Spotlight.

Krond

Learn more about Krond when his Champion Spotlight arrives on June 6th!

BW2: Endangered Species Mini Event IX!

Permalink

Posted in Bush Whacker 2.

Tags: bw2, May, 2025, mini, event, endangered, species.

Endangered Species - Ninth Encounter

Habitats are changing, and it's endangering many different animal species. Carson Tiva has found that three different endangered species can currently be found in Bushwhackia, as they search for new places to live.

Three Endangered Species

Lears Macaw - An endangered macaw known for their vibrant blue colour.

Red Headed Woodpecker - An endangered bird due to loss of overall habitat including loss of standing dead wood required for nest sites.

Snow Leopard Cub - A vulnerable leopard with around 4000 left in the wild, known for their distinct pattern which helps them blend in with their surroundings.

Collect Conservation Data

Like you did during Carson's last visit, apply your bush whacking skills to help them collect Conservation Data on these unique animals for the limited time they're here. To gather data, you just have to give them a whack with your sword or other whacking implement. With said data, Carson Tiva can use it to try and help what's left of these unique animals.

Which species you encounter in the fields will be random, so if you fall behind in finding one of the three animals, you can start one of Carson Tiva's pursuit quests. You can do one pursuit quest every 20 hours.

Earn Rewards

Your efforts will not go unrewarded! Carson Tiva will trade you for this data in their store, plus you'll earn a unique plaque for your contributions! Like event ribbons, this plaque will increase your maximum energy based on your performance.

Collect data, complete the achievements, and earn rewards!

In addition to a new set of species, Bush Buck Bundle, and energy boosting plaque, you can earn a new Save the Jungle Sign ranch item reward!

Limited Time Only

Go to the event area of the Commons to get started, and gather as much data as you can before noon on Tuesday June 3rd, Pacific Time!
