TheAlonzoHarris Restocked

So far TheAlonzoHarris' shop has been a big hit, allowing Gifters from previous Gifting Events to offer their rewards to the dueling public. Some of these rares have been so rarely seen that some barely knew they existed until now!

Exempt's Inferno (Bot)
Zelicaon Replica
Polyxenes Replica
Toji
Ghost Cannon
Spirit Reaper
Cosmic Knight
Dillbrazd's Delta Knight Armor
Balance Token - Can be purchased for Varium (for those too impatient to wait for the next Weekly mission)

Additionally, some rare hairstyles have finally been unlocked for the public:

What new Epic rares are on the horizon? You'll have to stick around to find out!

New Missions

The new mission chain Frogzard's Ferocity is available at Endless M4tr1x. Complete them to claim the prize generously offered by the Gifter Caddeus. These missions will remain in-game until next month.

Achievement Locked Shops

This update adds a new feature that allows unlocking special shops by earning Achievements. Our first implementation is for our many Nightmare boss NPCs. Defeating these bosses once will unlock at shop on their NPC (or nearby vendor) that make defeating the Nightmare Bosses much less stressful. We are rolling out only a few this time to make sure they're working correctly. We will do a full rollout next week.

These are the NPCs in this update with achievement-locked shops:
