Hey, this is Cryonical . Welcome back to another anchor of The Odyssey Feed! We’re going to be having an eggcelent time here on this very late easter anchor ! And in the spirit of things coming as new, let’s check out some new information on the anticipated next update for Arcane Odyssey!
It seems that indeed, the event was an easter event! Predictably, players will spawn in the event with an “easter tome” in their backpack, displaying all of the event items obtainable and hints on how to collect them ! There are 20 eggs in total to find around the world, which will be untradeable until the event ends. Find them all to get a badge and 2 special event items, the Easter Valkyrie Helm and the Easter Ship Lanterns !
See if you can recognize some of these eggs, and maybe even guess where they are ! There also seems to be some pink leaves, so perhaps that’s part of the event !
Next, we have some EPIC changes for sharks ! First, Lurkers, the shark that absolutely nobody in their life has ever seen due to whirlpool spawns being bugged, has had their spawn rate increased ! Megalodons and sea monsters however, have been lowered in their spawn rate, though the predetermined spawns in diving structures should be more than enough to make up for it !
Second, we have a big change to their AI : instead of immediately going to bite your ship, they swim to the surface, circling your ship, before biting. While circling, they can change direction (They will always do this when you damage them), dip below the surface, or even charge your ship. If you damage 20% of the shark’s health while it’s circling, it will de-aggro from half a minute to a minute .
This system gives you a (decently immersive ) chance to fight sharks off instead of getting guaranteed ship damage. And as you might notice, this gives you a less risky way to actually fight them, which will tie in with the sea monster hunting ship attachments being added soon ! In fact, though these attachments have not yet appeared on the recent cards, we have a picture:
Small cannons fit for quick and more precise strikes to circling sharks! Certainly by being patient, you could get a shark to aggro 5 times in order to bring its HP to zero by damaging it 20% each time, if you’re not super great at parrying them… especially white eyes . A pretty cool system overall, and I can’t wait to see some details on the progression of shark and sea monster hunting!
Lastly, we have a few pictures to look at, of diving points and structures … The first picture details a diving structure, containing lots of seaweed and a ruined ketch, while the second is a diving point with jellyfish and spires
In the same post that these pictures were shown in, Vetex has also confirmed that this easter update will be dropping next weekend ! So, be sure to mark your calendars!
That’s all for today’s anchor of The Odyssey Feed. Peace out !

Suggest a new feature for the game that will instantly make you Public Enemy #1
Posted by @Crimsonpants
Ever since the suggesting category has been opened and there’s some extra criteria as well, there’s been plenty of great suggestions for you to look at! Things that add to the game, change some mechanics, and more ! Of course, then we have the bad ones, that completely ruin the game ! But instead of posting them in the real category, how about you post them here, on a topic made just for your most horrendous, vile, no-good, terrible, and despicable ideas ?

Spring in Elm Island
Created by @Jinelle
Jinelle strikes again ! And the next piece in their inspiring gallery certainly fits into our easter theme … a wonderfully shaded, pastel-colored elm island has had it’s large center tree come to bloom with radiant pink flowers, drifting down onto the landscape below! And with the fluffy clouds in the background and the deep cerulean ocean, there’s really nothing stopping this from being one of the greats !

Astral Odyssey - Chapter 1 - Dawn
Written by @CraftmasterMatt
With the release of Arcane Odyssey having been almost 2 months ago, we’re certain to have lots of new and inspired writers on the forums ! CraftmasterMatt writes an epic first part to his series in which Matt Starsoul, their AO protagonist, goes through the storyline, writing down their thoughts in a journal. It’s in a similar but more vague style to how Morden does if you take his journal during the wind-row story. It’s very well written, so be sure to check it out !
