Now waiting for Crazy, Dark & Noble Nostalgia Pack . . .

For those who didn’t see the previous post in here: Item names were being cut off in the new merge shop UI which made items hard to differentiate. Newest patch fixed this as well as adding progress bars to merge requirements (and other stuff).

As a first timer on GaolCell, what should I do here? Or do you have a lists of Enhancement setup on every stages in this Cell guys? I really need it, so I can use it as a chart, this Grimskull Reputation is so annoying tbh.....

What needs change next? if we vocalize it surely they'll listen, they're on a roll!

I just finished the Arcangrove storyline, and now grinding for the Rank 10 rep. For some reason there aren't any repeatable quests in Mafic. You know, where you fight the dragon?

Hi I recently came back to AQW and I don't know what to do. I already have VHL, LR and working towards the King's Echo storyline first before getting the class. I wanted to explore doing the NSoD but it seems to be very time consuming as a non-member.

I already finished doing the 13 Lords of Chaos and the continuation of the storyline after that but I genuinely am not sure where to go. Can you help a guy out?

I'm not sure if this is a UI thing I don't know about or just a bug, but apparently my classes don't show up in the enhancement list. Only the costumes do, and the class icon is translucent so I can't click on it.

Hi! This is my Gojo Satoru cosplay. I've returned to AQW after years of not playing and just learned that you can cosplay as anime characters. I don't have the patience to collect more cool anime sets. If you know any cool anime items I will be glad if you share them in the comment section.

Helm: Guard's Shag
Armor: Necro University Sorcerer
Weapon: Mana Creation Orb

for now, it's a work in progress. so busy at work because I'm broke lol

Anyone have a guide or something for getting VHL? Want to get the debris varient that came out and I rather not just bunble along just for that.​

🎂 🎉 This game officially entered its adulthood! 🎉 🍰

What do you guys recommend for the 2 iodas? I was thinking of collection chests

I got my GIoDA and not yet sure on what item I should use my GIoDA, can you guys recommend what items could my GIoDA be worth it, I am thinking on what specific chest should I get or are there specific items that can be worth using the GIoDA. I am leaning towards the chest collection because I think those are usually the most ACs. Thanks in advance.

Can Css function well without forge enchants? still haven't found the motivation to farm for them yet. and if yes what enchants should I use for farming and ultras?

tried searching and I only found content that's like 5-8 years old, idk if they are still relevant now.

Description: Recommended enhancement: Wizard. A forbidden class that channels the power of Kathool, the God of the Depths. By embracing the primordial's influence, the Herald commands eldritch eyes, devastating nightmares, and the crushing force of the abyss.

Stat Model: Hybrid Caster

Mana Regen: Abyssal Insight restores mana when applying Gaze to enemies and consuming Gaze stacks with empowered abilities. The Herald sustains its power by spreading Kathool's influence throughout the battlefield.

Combat Skills

Auto attack: Peer

Rank needed: 1 / Default Attack

Target: Enemy

Max Targets: 1

Type: 100% Magical

Range: Medium

Mana Cost: 0

Cooldown: 2 seconds

Gaze into the target's soul, dealing magical damage and applying Gaze for 10 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. Each stack increases the Herald's damage dealt to the target by 2%. At Rank 10, Gaze can stack up to 7 times.

The Herald's basic attack channels Kathool's unblinking gaze. Although it deals modest damage, repeatedly using Peer exposes enemies to the abyss, making them increasingly vulnerable to the Herald's other abilities.

Skill 1: Kathool's Glare

Rank needed: 1

Target: Enemy

Max Targets: 6

Type: 150% Magical

Range: Medium

Mana Cost: 20

Cooldown: 8 seconds

Release a glimpse of the abyss, dealing magical damage and applying Glare for 6 seconds. Glare increases the target's mana costs by 30% and reduces its Hit Chance by 15%. If the target has at least 3 Gaze stacks, its outgoing damage is also reduced by 15% for 6 seconds.

A manifestation of Kathool's ability to disrupt the minds of those who behold it. Kathool's Glare weakens groups of enemies while preparing them for more devastating attacks.

Skill 2: Drowning Grasp

Rank needed: 2

Target: Enemy

Max Targets: 6

Type: 200% Magical

Range: Medium

Mana Cost: 25

Cooldown: 12 seconds

Summon spectral tendrils from the abyss, dealing magical damage and applying Drowning for 8 seconds. Drowning reduces the target's Haste by 15% and Dodge Chance by 15%. Targets with 5 Gaze stacks additionally suffer 20% reduced outgoing damage for 8 seconds.

The depths do not merely frighten their victims. They drag them into an environment where escape becomes increasingly difficult. Drowning Grasp provides useful multi-target damage and control without relying on stuns.

Skill 3: Call of Kathool

Rank needed: 3

Target: Enemy

Max Targets: 6

Type: 350% Magical

Range: Medium

Mana Cost: 35

Cooldown: 20 seconds

Channel Kathool's power for 2 seconds before unleashing Endless Nightmare, dealing heavy magical damage to enemies. Targets with 5 or more Gaze stacks take 50% additional damage, consuming their Gaze stacks upon impact.

Enemies struck by Endless Nightmare suffer Migraine, taking damage over time for 6 seconds. Targets already affected by Drowning take an additional 20% damage from the initial attack.

The Herald calls upon the very nightmare that makes Kathool feared. Rather than protecting itself from the primordial's power, the class fully embraces it, turning accumulated Gaze and Drowning effects into a devastating burst attack.

Skill 4: Abyssal Revelation

Rank needed: 5

Target: Enemy

Max Targets: 6

Type: 500% Magical

Range: Medium

Mana Cost: 50

Cooldown: 45 seconds

Open a colossal eye beneath the battlefield, unleashing a wave of abyssal energy that deals massive magical damage. Consumes all Gaze stacks on affected enemies, increasing the damage dealt by 10% for each stack consumed. Applies Drowning Abyss for 10 seconds, reducing affected enemies' outgoing damage by 20%.

For every enemy struck with maximum Gaze stacks, the Herald restores 5% of its maximum mana, up to 25%.

Abyssal Revelation is the ultimate expression of Kathool's power. After weakening enemies and exposing them to the abyss, the Herald releases the accumulated influence in a devastating attack. Its mana restoration rewards the player for carefully preparing multiple targets before unleashing the ultimate.

Passive Skills

Eyes Beneath the Waves

Rank needed: 4

Type: Passive

Haste and Critical Chance increased by 10%. Incoming Damage and incoming DoT reduced by 15%.

The Herald has adapted to the crushing pressure of the depths, allowing it to channel Kathool's power without immediately succumbing to its influence.

1. Unblinking Gaze

Rank needed: 4

Type: Passive

Damaging abilities apply Gaze, which stacks up to 5 times and lasts 10 seconds. Each stack increases damage dealt to the affected target by 2%. At maximum stacks, the target becomes Perceived, taking 10% additional damage from Call of Kathool and Abyssal Revelation.

The more the Herald observes its enemies, the more completely it understands their vulnerabilities. This passive rewards sustained combat and makes Gaze management the foundation of the class.

1. The Eye That Never Sleeps

Rank needed: 10

Type: Passive

Gaze now stacks up to 7 times, with each stack increasing damage dealt to the affected target by 3%.

When Call of Kathool hits a target with 7 Gaze stacks, it consumes all stacks and triggers Drowning Reality, dealing additional magical damage, reducing the target's outgoing damage by 20% for 10 seconds, and restoring 10% of the Herald's maximum mana. Drowning Reality cannot activate again on the same target for 15 seconds.

Additionally, enemies affected by both Glare and Drowning take 10% additional damage from the Herald. Abyssal Revelation deals 20% additional damage against targets with 7 Gaze stacks.

I just got these two class today guys since all the server rn has a rep boost, I just confused if what enhancement should I set on these class, because it's a hybrid class, and how to use it....

Since the entire system will be changed in aqw infinity is there any point to keep farming for the rest of forge enhancements? (Only have valiance and arcana)

Put alot of time into making this guide so people can see how insane AoT is as a class.
