<![CDATA[Update 2.12 is here!]]> You can now fight a combination of Count Harebourg plus either Klime, Sylargh, Missiz Freez, or Nileza at the top of the Count's enormous water clock. It's a challenge for the best of the best players of DOFUS... could that mean you?  



With today's update, the final brutal piece of the Frigost puzzle has fallen into place. The players who can defeat this new challenge have already forged through 15 different areas and 12 unique dungeons. They have spent the last three years studying and understanding the complext states and tactiques required to defeat the bosses of these dungeons. They have optimized their characters down to the last characteristic point... and some of them have even obtained the new Ice Dofus!
Yes, it's been a brutal path to the top, strewn with obstacles and deep snowdrifts. And now it has led these player titans to the four most difficult battles in the World of Twelve!
Beyond these vicious encounters, the strong will find glory in the form of an unique ornament, a striking testimony to their Frigostian Feats. Who will be the first to conquer this challenge?

<![CDATA[Coming soon to DOFUS!]]> After the 2.12 update and the addition of heroic fights at the summit of the Water Clock, the development of the third extension of Frigost will finally be completed. It is now time to look forward! What is in store for DOFUS for the next few months? Frigost might be finished, but the Count Harebourg isn’t done yet, and he’s intent on rallying new Villains to his cause…



The most attentive amongst you will remember, we have published a calender of the updates for 2013. But a refresher course can't hurt, let’s jog our memory!

 

Alliance vs Alliance, the War of Guilds


In the month of June, the new Guild Alliance system will reshape the map of the World of Twelves and give DOFUS PvP a facelift! The territory conquest system - formerly under the rule of Bonta and Brakmar due to the lack of majors stakes - will now be in the hands of guilds and their alliances!

A guild alliance will be able to take control of differents area in the World of Twelve, but they will also be able to aid one another by defending perceptors of the different guilds that make up that alliance!

Whereas the Kolossium’s purpose is to offer balanced and instanced PvP fights, the territory conquest system will require great organization and smooth mobilization from large groups of players in the different alliances. Unity will be your strength.

To prevail in the World of Twelves, guilds will need to take arms, swamp capturable zones in large number, display great diplomacy skill to ensure trustworthy allies, but they may sometime have to make the choice of manipulation and betrayal… What a program!
 

Achievements and items on Vulkania

 
In July, Grozilla and Grasmere will be back in force for the summer reopening of the archipelago of Vulkania. For those who never had a chance to explore those tropical island where the danger is lurking behind every Sauroshell, it will be your first chance to grab emotes, pets, a petsmount, and exclusive equipment that cannot be found elsewhere!

For everyone else, dozens of new achievements will be waiting for you to unlock them, and there will also be two new 190+ sets to be crafted!
 

Wabbit Island revamp !


And in August, to finish the summer, we'll continue the island theme with a complete revamp of Wabbit island!

Aside from a graphical overhaul, you will have the chance to discover a new boss in the Cawwot Dofus dungeon along with an entirely new series of wabbity quests!
 

And community events, of course!


We start off the festivities, in June, with a Singing Competition to celebrate "The Voice of DOFUS" (*name subject to change)! We’ll get back to you with the rules on that one, but be ready to make your voice heard!  

In June / July, the event you’ve grown to love is back - Bring out your sharpest attire and dazzle your way to the top in this year’s new edition of the Mister and Misses Ankama Pageant!

And, as you would expect, the months of July and August will be punctuated by the warrior battle cries of the best fighters in the land, defending their server’s honor in the ultimate annual tournament, the DOFUS Goultarminator! (*name subject to change)

As for you winter connoisseurs, do not despair, you haven’t seen the last of Frigost! Between rebalancing and awesome new sets, you’ll get an avalanche of new content and it’ll be well worth keeping an eye out to the north.

Of course, 2013 is far from over, the endless flood of Villains will continue ravaging forth, bringing its share of fearful battles and evil endeavors – well, that is, until, true heroes stand in their way. 

We hope you will have a blast and that you're enjoying this new system of communication we have shown in bringing you this year’s Event Calendar!  As you’ve seen, there’s lots more to come!]]>

<![CDATA[Count Harebourg isn't playing around]]> The Count's Castle opened its porcullis on April 16. His first defeat was April 19. Since then, Harebourg has been beaten 425 times. But did you think that he would leave it at that? The Count is preparing to summon his minions to his tower in his defense, will you be able to stand up to the Count AND his sidekicks in the same fight?

On Tuesday, May 21, 2013, we're raising the bar on the definition of an "epic" battle in DOFUS!

Count Harebourg is too easy for a leet player like you? You're already bored with the Frigost III dungeons? Then sample the ultimate mashup by tackling four new versions of the hardest boss fight in DOFUS.

The 2.12 update will allow you to choose to face the Count plus either Klime, Nilesa, Missiz Freez, or Sylargh. Each one of these bosses will be at their full strength, just as they are in their respective dungeons. Combined with the Count, facing these baddies will be a totally different experience.

If you can defeat all four of these elite challenges, you unlock the most badass ornament in the World of Twelve: The Eminent Fighter.

You must have defeated the Count in his tower at least once to unlock these new challenges, so make use of your weekend and prepare!]]>

It's time to play SUPER GOBBOWL! This new event will not test your ability to chase after a ball on a field, oh no, and no game other than DOFUS itself will be required. This event will test your solidarity and loyalty to your team! If you win, you can win the complete Real Gobbly Set.
 
 

On May 15 and 16, the roar of the stadium will echo through the dungeons of DOFUS!
Super Gobbowl is an invitation to get together a group of 8 different players (who must be from different IP addresses) from within your level range to work together to defeat the boss of a dungeon equal to your team's average level.
 
  • Levels 1-50: Scaraleaf Dungeon
  • Levels 51-80: Otomai's Ark
  • Levels 81-110: Dragon Pig's Den
  • Levels 111-150: Kitsoune Dungeon
  • Levels 151-175: Kimbo's Canopy
  • Levels 176-185: Bworker Dungeon
  • Levels 186-195: Snowfoux Den (Tengu and Fuji)
  • Levels 196-200: Nileza's Laboratory

But pay attention! If one of your teammates is either over or under the level limit, your team will not receive the reward! You can only win one full Real Gobbly Set per account, but if you choose to complete this challenge more than once, you can receive up to two additional rewards per account in the form of Pym's tokens. To recap, if you go above and beyond and complete the challenge three or more times, you will win:
 
Prizes will be assigned to participating accounts AFTER May 16. Our strike server team will review the logs and create a master list of the accounts that successfully completed the challenge after the event has ended and then hand out the prizes.

Note: To successfully complete the challenge, a full group of 8 players who are connecting to DOFUS from different IP addresses are required.]]>
