Age of Conan's 5th anniversary in-game event

As part of the celebrations for Funcom's Age of Conan 5 year anniversary, brutal boss monsters will be roaming and rampaging through the world of Hyboria for five days in a row.

Starting Thursday the 23rd of May at 4pm CET / 10am EST, these boss monsters will be attacking settled areas while others roam around and must be tracked down. Everyone, no matter what their power, can join the battle against these monsters. If the monsters are defeated players will be rewarded handsomely.

On top of the in-game battle the celebrations will also see member accounts for Age of Conan: Unchained greatly improved. Experience points can be doubled for one hour each day when killing monsters with the Blessing of Asura item, which all characters on member accounts will now receive.

One Alternative Advancement point is also earned for each level gained to be spent at level 80 for abilities. Furthermore Members will triple the amount of Bonus Points they receive each month to spend in the Item Shop.

There are more gifts players will receive during the celebrations, including Access Passes to Khitai, the great land of the east introduced in the Rise of the Godslayer expansion.
