Hi folks!

We will be running one of our two yearly auctions in the later half of this month, so look forward to that! But for now, Cryptic Chests are returning to the website (www.aetolia.com/credits) under 'artifact packages' for April!

Opening a chest will award one or more prizes from a wide selection as outlined below.

Every 500 Cryptic Chests opened will trigger a global prize where one of the next 50 to be opened will contain a bonus of 500 credits on top of the other prizes!

Here's what you might find inside:

- Chocolate bags, elemental globes, fireworks, customisation certificates, iron coins, morphic metal, ambience tokens, styles and a low chance at salvage.

- Style selection for this month includes telekinetic, ghostly, loud and confident, with a chance at receiving a style point to spend at the shop.

- Credit prizes ranging from 18 - 250.

- Various artifacts valued between 50 and 2000 credits.

- Minipets from a selection of: an obsidian chaos hound, a fluffy jambaali, a wide-eyed sugar glider, an orange-beaked puffin, an oversized jumping spider, and a juvenile wolverine.

- Coffers with pieces for the following relics: spikes*, veil_nightmare, raptor*, shrubbing, antennae*, goldtranslocator, raceidol.
* These marked relics have been updated to support the new relic attire command that was added last month.

- Compendium pages for: Vault of Domor, Raugol Fissure, Yuzurai village, the Fengard Keep, the Teshen Undercroft and a snake pit.

In addition to these, you will always receive a filler prize (grimstim pills, various consumables, omnipotence pills, etc). These do not count towards your chest's value. There's a brand new filler prize added to the line-up this month: a herbal jar, which you can APPLY to give you a defence that masks you from scent for one hour.

You can also find a chest in the milestone shop for April - 1 gold key as always!

Enjoy!
