January in Achaea: Happy New Year!

Hi folks!

2026 has arrived! Platinum stockings are now filled! Happy New Year from the Achaea team and let’s hope it’s a good one!

Before I dive into the monthly promotion stuff, I have the winners of the Ironbeard lottery to announce:

First place is Laras, winning 1000 credits!

Second place is Sobriquet, winning 500 credits!

Third place is Fitz, winning 250 credits!

The feedback for this cross-game event has been overwhelmingly positive and we will definitely be looking at more opportunities for similar events in future. Thanks to everyone for participating and congratulations to the lottery winners!

For January we welcome back Globes of Shifting Continents to the Achaea website over at www.achaea.com.credits. Globes contain a variety of prizes, including:

– Unbound credits.
– Talisman caches containing pieces from the Wanderer, Memory, and Contenders sets.
– Card sleeves, containing one card from the deck of legends in each.
– Mayan crowns.
– Bloodstained shards.
– Artefact discount vouchers.
– A range of artefacts valued from 50 credits all the way up to the 2000+ range.
– Free reincarnations/trait resets(**).
– Additional tradeskill slots(**).

** You will not receive free reincarnations, trait resets, or additional tradeskill slots if you already have a means by which to reset your race/traits via artefacts or other means in the former’s case, or have 3 or more bonus slots already in the latter’s case. You’ll receive a different prize instead.

Upon opening a globe you will also receive a bonus to experience, battlerage generation, or critical hits! There is also a chance to receive consumables!

In addition, the 500th globe bonus prize will award 500 bound credits!

For globe buyers who have an Iron Elite membership, every 10 globes you buy earns you a free globe. This is cumulative across purchases, so if you buy 3 globes today and 7 globes next week, you’ll still get your free globe!

Capping renown 7 times throughout the month of January will award you one free globe! As always, this is not repeatable.

I’ll be looking to hopefully set up a Tea Time soon (likely early or mid month), so be on the lookout for that, as well as all the usual fun and shenanigans to come through the month and beyond!

Enjoy!
