They actually hit for damage comparable to 2 levels higher than their stated level. They will be converted to nova gem items in 2 weeks! So this is your chance to get nova gem items for credits!
In addition to these new items, we have added some lower level nova gem shoulders (the Retractable Rifle, Robotic Rifle and the Switch Rifle that have a chance to hit for 75% bonus damage. You can find these weapons at Tek's shop in the Intro Shuttle and also in the special shops in Soluna City.

But we are really aiming for Wednesday night EST (Wish us luck).
Next week we will be opening the Hospital where you can go on daring missions with your battle mecha to climb the ranks of the WR! (Yes, that stands for "waiting room".) Go from being one of the Scrubs to being the chief medical officer (JD, Turk and Cox would be so proud).

ShadowScythe Forces on the move....
"As you already know, our planet is experiencing communication black-outs. Every location attacked by the ShadowScythe invaders has suddenly lost communication and gone silent -- never beening heard from again. GEARS University has encountered many scout drones, but we have never been attacked in a full out assault. Perhaps they did not percieve us as a threat.... wait... WHAT!? This just in. ShadowScythe forces are moving towards Soluna City! We cannot reach the planetary defense forces either! Star Captain Sys Zero has established a defensive parimeter and is calling for all available students to help hold the ShadowScythe at the suburbs. Prepare your battle mecha for battle..." - Laura Lensflare with Channel OICU-812 News. (Happening now!) |

How to Catch a Ghost
Tip: Expert ghost hunters will first obtain the best "ghost trap" they can from Mysterious Johnson's mecha store. The entry level trap costs 0 credits, but you really get what you are paying for! So be sure to earn a few credits and get yourself a top of the line model. To catch a ghost that is haunting a mech, first... begin combat! Go all out damage until the enemy falls below 30% and starts glowing red. That is you cue, use your "ghost trap arm"! You may have to use it a few times to catch the ghost. If you catch it you will zap the ghost right out of the mech and into your trap. That is all there is too it -- Good luck spook busting! |

Real conversation at the AE office
about the Police Force
Artix: "To join the force you must use the force!"
Zhoom: "What is the Force?"
Everyone: <Stops and turns slowly to stare at Zhoom in shock>
Artix: "Cysero, do you want to take this one?"
Cysero: "The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together."
Zhoom: <in serious voice> "So, is that going to be a quest drop?"
Everyone: "..." |

Sharewarewolves!?
"Werewolves? HAH! Myths... Legends.... Fairy tales. They do not exist. Never have. Even if they were real they would never go cruising around on motorcycles stealing random stuff for no reason at all.", said hover bike repairman Wulf Lupanelli during last weeks holovision interview. |

Energy Sword Fighting!
Incoming message from Dean Warlic of GEARS University
"Before you can truly master the art of mecha combat, you must first become a master of yourself. You will not always be safe within the protective armor of your mecha. This is why the first available class at Gears University is Energy Blades 101! My good friend, Master Tsuba teaches this class. He is the foremost expert in energy weaponry in the galaxy and we are honored to have him as a faculty member this year. Energy Blades are very powerful weapons that draw from your inner power (which is a battery concealed within your uniform.)"

"Board no hit back" -- Alas, Mr. Miyagi was wrong...

MechQuest is LIVE!
Sys Zero says, "Flight attendants, please make final preperations. We are preparing for our final descent, landing in Soluna City, home of GEARS University. Estimated time of arrival is 12:00pm EST. Also we just received this message from Dean Warlic. "All pilot candidates (This is you) upon landing are to check in with Admina the enrollment officer. She will be hard to miss with that giant yellow ! above her head." Good luck on your exam!
Due to a severe malfuction in the exam assessment drone an unusually low number of pilot candidates are making it into GEARS University*. There have not been any complaints though**. The friendly faculty at GEARS University anxiously awaits the arrival of new candidates to try the entry exam.... including you. Who we are SURE will score far better.
* Official Count: 0
** Nor have there been any survivors... we are certain this is just a coincidence. |

A Mecha RPG in a Fantasy World
MechQuest is a FREE 100% browser based fantasy giant destructive war machine battle game. Sounds fun? You bet! Created by the insane makers of AdventureQuest and DragonFable and heavily inspired by the art from every mecha & giant robot series every created (and we are throwing in magic and laser swords just because) we will be putting a true "anything goes" build and battle "lunchbreak sized" game. Keep your holivids tuned in for more... *Bizzzzzzipwhip...kccccht!*
The story begins..... or ends....
or oh well, there's big shiny mecha!
5,000 years before AdventureQuest* there was a time of BIG AND HEAVILY ARMED MECHA! Hundreds of tons of lasers, missiles, cannons, machine guns, flash lights and the toaster of destruction.... the holes these weapons make will be so big you will probably completely miss the plot holes! Build, customize and pilot your own Mecha in what will be best described at "non-stop-insane-chaotic-explosions". Battle on!
*or 4,995 years before DragonFable. As MechQuest begins on the world of Lore the year is 3007. From this moment on, all posts will be made in real time -- FROM THE FUTURE! |
