Friday Update[]
Members of our community will get a special in-game item for one of the nicest perks in Hyboria.
We're pleased to officially reveal the secret item granted to Clan of Conan members and bring you the first images of the Drinking Cape.
In addition to looking stylish in the tavern and impressing all the wenches, the Drinking Cape comes with the best perk in Hyboria: free drinks for life.
Drinking is not only a fun way to get to know your friends and pick up wenches (or man-wenches, if that's your thing), it also is a key component in the Drunken Brawling PvP minigame. Those who don the Drinking Cape before strutting into the tavern get free drinks for life, meaning they can brawl to their drunken heart's content in all the taverns of Hyboria without losing any money. It's all the benefits of drinking with none of the side effects, truly a wonderous thing to the barbarian's heart.
The Drinking Cape features a leopard skin lining to keep you warm once you're thrown out into the cold night, while its stylish insignia lets everyone know that they're about to take on a world-class drinker, fighter, and all around awesome person, be it in the tavern brawl, stumbling home afterwards, or on the battlefield.
The item for the Clan of Conan is still undecided at the moment but may be this. This so far only comes with the collectors edition. But actually some of the buyers of the normal aoc game package got this item to!
The Drinking Cape is only available to members of the Clan of Conan who sign up before the launch of Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures.
Shortly after the official US release of Age of Conan (more accurately Wed 5/21/08) Funcom delivered codes to gamers through respective e-mail addresses thanking them for their patience through all the bug problems occuring in a letter titled "Age Of Conan: A Reward From the King" the letter contained a code for the cape.
- "You have been a long and thrustworthy participant in our community, and as such we would like to thank you for helping us form Age of Conan into the marvelous product it is today. The last weeks has seen some serious enhancment to the game, and with the release we will be opening several new areas and neverbefore seen content in the launch version of the game. What and where it is? You have to find out for yourself!
- As a sign of gratitude for your aid, we are pleased to offer you the in-game item used by those loyal to King Conan: The Drinking Cape. This item will allow your characters (one game account only) to free of charge demand the very sought after alcholic drink of "Ambrosia" - free and in unlimited supplies for life! After having claimed your cape, merely find one of the kegs in the finer Inns of Hyboria and click it whilst wearing your cape to receive your drink."
