Devise an April Fools Update for Arcane Odyssey

all the pranks I could think of:

Calvus has his model replaced with King David.

Iris is just a walking flare magic cirle

Neviro is invisible

Revon has his color scheme inverted for literally no reason

Morden gets cat ears

the dark sea title screen has Martin (strongest known atlantean) doing /e dance on a sailboat

Merlot and Kai’s dialogues have been swapped

The cultist camp at the forest of cernunno is completely on fire and all cultists (cernyx too) are on fire, this doesn’t do any real damage to you or them.

akursius keep isn’t haunted and doesn’t grant insanity

elius and carina are wearing a tropical shirt with khakis

NPCs all have a chance to spawn upside down (like dinnerbone from minecraft)

typing “mimhere island” in chat makes your character ragdoll

edward and enizor have their faces swapped

Arcane Abyss Sea

iris attacking would just be the flare circle aiming at you and using an attack

Invert the controls(when you want to move to the right you actually move to the left and so on)

see the trick to making a good april fool’s update is that it has to be unusual and out of place, but still funny and enjoyable and doesn’t totally disrupt the game.

inverting movement controls would accomplish nothing but the complete opposite of these things.

Make every bit of text in the game random.

You talk to an npc and they say “Burning!”
You try to cast a spell and the spell name is “Greenwish Cultist Staff”
You encounter an enemy, it’s a level 75 “We’d better ask around, surely someone around here knows a way into the fortress.”
You find a new item, its a “A massive iceberg that has drifted around the war seas for centuries” The description says “Prince Revon”
Your healthbar is now called “Carrying gunpowder barrel”
Your “King Calvus IV” bar is getting low, so you eat a “Sailing the skies” to refill it.

I want to think of more of these but that can come later

Then I believe the ship models should be rotated around 180 Degree(except the brig) like they still work normal but the back of the boat is just at the front

Add Sky Skates, be very serious about it, and have everyone run around trying to find the NPC that sells it (it doesn’t exist).

The AO map gets replaced by the AA map, our character wakes up to Theos in Alelea saying we were having a nightmare and that we need to prepare to open our third mind.

remove all mentions of skyships and sky shipwrights and have everyone looking for sky skates

The order in which you fight bosses is now reversed, have fun

Replace all ships and the entire ship system with AA’s ships. Goodbye Brig, hello Frigate.

No ramming speed, no shark-hunting attachments, no deckhands, no captain’s quarters, and NO CUSTOMIZATION (except for renaming and painting).

(This is the worst idea ever, even for just a day. But it would highlight how much of an improvement AO is over AA)

I have a better idea, announce that AO was broken by a Roblox change and that it has to be redone from the ground up. (AA 2.0)

To add onto this:

Mayor Tilly swaps her suits (did you know her suit is a different color before and after the Ravena chapter?)

Cernyx spawns with his shirt off and puts one on at phase two.

Harvest island now has green grass, and has a third whirlpool.

Edward’s first form has a full beard, but he shaves it completely in his second form.

The colors for the four Build Stats are inverted.

Sharks are randomly up to 50% larger or 50% smaller. Will this cause hitbox issues? Probably, but who cares? It’s just for a day or two.

There is a slight (2%) chance for any given attack to be a crit. Such an attack deals +200% damage to NPCs, but no extra damage to players. (So sweats don’t whine.) Crits are indicated by the attack taking on a random magic’s particles.

The player may be hit by “fake out” orange-red lightning in the Dark Sea. This lightning homes in on the player, deals 20 damage (literally nothing), applies no combat tag, and cannot paralyze. Happens every 20-40 minutes in the Dark Sea.

The entire map is destructible, and any and all dammage done to the map is permanent arcoss all servers for the entire day.

Yknow how when you reel a fish, it flies towards you? Ya just that but its white eyes and instantly kills you. also spawns a white eyes too ig

I’d love to see an effort across several different servers to remove pellion rift from the game via explosion magic lol.
It would be funny.
