BW2: Creature Collector - Fawn Pets! 
Posted in Bush Whacker 2.

Coppers of the Creature Collector

The eccentric Creature Collector has returned to the Commons, this time with a trio of fawn pets!



Head to the event area and choose one to train. You have until noon on Wednesday July 2nd to complete the collector's four daily quests, level up your chosen creature, earn Creature Coppers to spend in their store, and get another page to your Creature Collector's Compendium!

The Compendium Page will be given after the event ends. If you don't have the Creature Collector's Compendium ranch item, you'll get it when you get your first page.

After the event, the collector will be taking their creature back unless you adopt it by purchasing its corresponding mount pack, available during this mini-event only!

Train hard, Bush Whackers!

The training quests unlock at noon on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Those busy on the weekends can still catch up!

Notes
- The VIP "Quest Reset" power does not reset these mini event quests, and they are not affected by the Time Turner and Timey Whimey Watch.
- These three pets earn double the experience compared to other pets for the duration of this mini-event!

Ye Olde Creature Collector's Galleria - Pets

When you speak to Tanela Tiva in the event area, you can select the "What past pets are for sale?" chat option.

This will open a new store, which will contain 3 non-event premium pets you have never owned! They cost Bush Bucks, like in event stores. The selection will change next time Tanela Tiva visits to event area.

We've done this in response to players asking to see old premium pets they've missed out on, to help you fill out your pet collection. Snag those old-school pets you're missing out on!

Idle Champions: Dragondown 8 
Posted in Idle Champions.

    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

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

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.


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

Steam Local Currency Update

Yesterday, we rolled out an update to Steam players which allows our in-game shop to show their local currencies instead of USD. Steam will now charge players in local currencies instead of a converted USD price, using Steam's standard conversion rates. With this update, local currencies are now displayed in Idle Champions across all platforms except Android, which is our next priority.
