Nagnang color change
Posted
by: Vini
-- 4:30 PM EST
|
After a server reset this morning, the official dye of Nagnang Kingdom has changed to Purple .
Now, each Nangen defender will wear this new color instead of the Green one that looked like Sam san dye.
To fit the new dye, the Nagnang Army medals were also changed to purple, but seems the Nagnang helm continues to be green.
It's a beautiful new dye, wear with pride Nagnang Defenders!

Event walkthrough updated up to Metal Mount
Posted
by: Vini
-- 12:57 AM EST
|
One the right corner of the prison of ogres cells, people are able to find a strange prisioner there; he looks different from the others, but not sure why.
He's called Soo, he's a Gypsy friend of Gypsy Father of Gypsy camp.
To save sometime, before going to Western forest and slave pen, go to the Desert to talk with Gyspy Father.
Desert is found in southwest mythic nexus, to go across it is needed to have 26 Water skins in inventory (full inventory). Then follow these directions that can also be found on Nexus Atlas past news:
South x 3, East x1, South x 3, East x 4, South x 5, West x 4 and South x 6. You'll reach an Oasis , refill water skins there.
East x 14 times, South x1 and East x1
Another Oasis , refill again and go back
West x1, North x 3, West x 2, North x4, East x 6, Northx 6
East x1
Once in the Gyspy camp, just need to say Soo to the Gyspy father that can be found just near the only Tent there. Then gate and get ready for the long hard work of slave.
Before going to the Western Forest, get 3 Slag, it will be needed in there.
Go to south camp, wait there to be thrown in slave pen. Once in there, take off all the items wearing. Drop the ogre messages and wait to be put in the middle part of the Slave pen.
When that happens, put the Slave garb/dress on and head south. Do the Slave training and once is finished go south again to get near the slave master.
The slave master uses his slaves to send message around the camp to the ogres there. Keep delivering messages until you get one like this from the slave master:
Your chance to enter the prision cells, be careful there, because it takes a long time to get this message, don't say anything unless there's no ogre in the screen.
Go all the way to the right in the Cells. Wait for the ogre to leave completely the screen and say Soo.
Click yes for willing to help him and once he's done speaking watch if the ogre is coming nearby again. If not say Soo again so to give him the 3 Slags and Soo again so you can be sure to be done with this part.
A message like this will appear when he's done.
After that Say "Cazell". He'll explain how Cazell forced him to make some Metal mounts, so go and ask for one to you as well.
Say "Mount" and click yes.
You'll get your metal mount 
and a new legend mark as well.
If we find anymore stuff to do in this event, we'll post as soon as we confirm it out.

Ice (type): Level 99 to wear
Warded (type): Il san to wear
Dread (type): Ee san to wear
there were no Sam san armors dropped yet, so we aren't sure if there's a version for it.
Like the other types of clothes, they are divided in paths as well:
Warrior: platemail(male)/ platemail dress(female)
Rogue: armor(male)/ armor dress (female)
Mage: garb(male)/ skirt(female)
Poet: robes(male)/gown(female)
We got a few screenshots of these new armory availables:

Warded robes. See stats below.
Its statistics are as follows:
AC: -37
Male Il san (P)
The robes were recovered by SongoftheSea, Rapp, Yajirobe, Hopelesscow, Bloodrose and Ihealer from Ghaleb, the Assassin 2 tribe boss.

Earth Shard Legend mark

After this morning reset, a new legend mark was introduced to reward those who took their time to make an Earth Shard during the last part of the event.

Ogre Camp Walkthough
|
|
I'll be updating this as soon as any breakthroughs are made. Regarding step 12, I spent over an hour completing these tasks and got absolutely nowhere. I did at least 35 tasks (some of which I did twice or thrice). Do not spend too much time on these tasks, because unless 50 is the target number, or the task must be in a certain manner, this is most likely a distraction. Keep looking for clues.
Here is the walkthrough thus far.
01) Enter the Western Forest from the Wilderness. (0003, 0100) You will need an axe to make your way through the thick, obstructing brush.
02) After making your way through the brush, slay one of the slaves you will see wandering about. They are dressed as peasants in what appears to be spring clothing. Collect the 'Ogre message' that they drop.
03) Travel to Hamgyong Nam-Do, to the home of Ugh where the ogre Nyogh currently resides. (0020, 0021) Speak with him about the 'Ogre message'. He will tell you that the message is written in ancient Ogrish, and that a scholar by the name of Haguru has written a book on the subject, but that he has no idea where you might obtain a copy.
04) Go to the Arctic land and head west across the bridge to Du Mountain. (0004, 0000) Speak with the man about 'Haguru'. He will tell you that his name is Haguru, that he was indeed named after an ogre, and that the ogre often used to visit the village of Sanhae to speak with the Mayor.
05) Leave Du Mountain and cross the eastern bridge to the Sanhae Pass (0053, 0020), and then head north to the Sanhae Valley. (0015, 0000) You will find the Mayor located in the Sanhae Hall. (0034, 0018)
06) Speak with the Mayor about 'Haguru', and then about Haguru's 'book'. He will tell you that the ogre left him a collection of his books, and that he will gladly give you a copy of the book in exchange for a donation to the town's coffers. The minimum you must donate to receive a book is 10,000 coins. He notes also that Daewhan has bought many copies.
07) Travel along the Southern Path, located in southeastern Nagnang (0134, 0155) and follow the western road at the fork (0004, 0019) to the Leviathan Mound. Continue traveling south until you reach the Leviathan fields (0015, 0029) and Daewhan, the gray leviathan. (0025, 0010)
08) Speak with Daewhan about the 'ogre message' (after using the 'Beginner ogre' book from your inventory). (Edited by Coldsun)
You must have previously aided the leviathans, or he will not respond. If you have not completed that quest, (click him) he will give you the instructions you will need to go about doing so.
He will teach you to be fluent in the ancient Ogrish language for a temporary period of time, so that you may read the message gotten from the slave.
09) Journey back to the Western Forest, making your way through the brush once more, and head either north or south until you come to an ogre camp. Allow the ogres to shove you around a bit without fighting back and they will soon toss you into a slave pen.
10) Do not speak, for slaves are to be silent. Drop all of the ogre messages in your possession upon the ground and remove all clothing and items. The ogre guard that is babbling about slave conduct will then issue you proper slave clothing and direct you to the slave training area.
11) Report to (click on) the 'master' ogre to begin your training. He will give to you a message to be delivered to a certain one of the numerous ogres within the room. Locate that particular ogre and give them the message (by clicking on them). Report back to the master and continue these tasks until he declares that you are done with your training. Head south and exit the area into the Slave Quarters.
12) The master ogre (click him) will then give you a series of messages to deliver to certain ogres in specified parts of the camp. (To confirm that you have the right ogre, press ";" while next to them and their name will appear in your status box.) Bothering the wrong ogres more than once will get you thrown out. After each message is successfully delivered, report back to the slave quarters (0049, 0008) and the master to receive the next task.

Event Walkthrough up to Earth Shard (Edited)
Posted
by: Vini
-- 4:41 PM EST
|
The Current event has three different parts and still has no connection between them. The full event has not been finished yet so here there will be only the steps that have use in the event:
Making a Wooden Staff
Item needed: 1 Acorn and 200 coins
To make a Wooden staff is simple, people just need to get a Cursed acorn. The pond to make cursed acorn in Sute’s cave stopped working for a bit but it's now working again.
To make a Cursed acorn, go to Eldritch, the Mage Guildmaster of Buya and say Sute. Pay 200 coins to get sute's dye. Enter the Sute cave that is located east of north Buyan gate and proceed to the second room called Barren graves. On northeast corner (0030/0000) there's a pond with silver, just drop the acorn there and it will become a cursed acorn.
Once with a cursed acorn, head to Woodlands in Nagnang (west gate and a bit down) and cross it all over to the southwest corner of it. There will be swamps where people plant their swamp trees. To get a Swamp Tree is pretty simple, just drop the cursed acorn in the ground and pick it up until a pop up appears saying that a good place to plant the acorn was found.
Make sure to take note of the place (cords) where the cursed acorn was planted. Also exact hour it was planted.
Logging off or leaving the server won’t affect anything in the quest. Just make sure to return to the same spot after 19-24 nexus hours (2 to 3 hours irl). There will be a swamp tree in the place where the cursed acorn was planted. Only the one who planted it will be able to hit.
Just hit the swamp tree repeatedly, doesn’t need a weapon, strength doesn’t matter and also magic doesn’t work. After a while of hitting the tree, it will vanish and give place to a Wooden Staff.
Making a Water Jewel
Items needed: 2 Water jugs [20 sips], 1 Salt Block, 5000 coins.
For this part, get the water jugs before anything. Accomplished(or higher) Carpenters can make them for 1 Ginko Wood each. To refill the empty water jug just go to Kugnae 0030/0030 and drop the jugs there, they will become full.
To get a Salt block just drop a cloth a few times in the sands of the Dae Shore.
Get 5000 coins and head to Northern Shore which can be easily accessed by clicking on Hausson in main map. Walk to the docks of the shore and say “Water jewel”. The boatman will offer a ride to the Pirate Mine Island for 5000 coins. Just accept it and reach the Island. (No Gateway will be lost anymore)
Once in the Island, there will be many rats on the sand. Ignore them, they are really weak and don’t help with anything. Just proceed to inside the Mine in the middle of the Island.
Inside the Pirate Mine walk through the rooms and kill rats until one drops a Rusty key.
Go back to the first room of the Mine and open one of the hidden chests with the Rusty key. (use ctrl r to find the chests easier) It will drop a Rock Pick.
With the Rock pick walkthrough the south part of the mine until there’s a room with no rats inside. There will be the room to use the Rock pick. Drop it and pick it to get up to 10 Mine Rocks. Proceed to north east part of the Mine, where there’s a small room with a Blind Miner. Trade the 10 Mine rocks for a Rope.
With the rope in inventory, walk all the way to the west of the Mine. There will be a room called Great Crevasse there. Walk to the corner of the room near the big hole. The rope will be used to that the person to the other side of the hole.
In the back of the room, just north of the broken bridge there will be another room called Crystal Chamber. There will be four spots with water and crystals. With the salt block in the inventory, drop one of the Water jugs [20 sips]. The water mixed with the salt will start to form a crystal. There’s no problem in leaving the island, or logging off after this.
Wait between 8 and 10 Nexus hours, and then drop the other full Water jug. There will be a newly formed Water Jewel once this is complete.
Making an Earth shard
Items needed: 1 Dark amber, 1 Hot coal, 1 Dragon Shard, 26 Water skins and 16000 coins.
To make Hot coals, buy a coal from the Sanhae Smith by saying “Coal” to him. Costs 20 coins only. Buy a Flash dust in Kugnae Arena shop and use creation system (shift+i) to combine both.
To make a Dragon Shard, go to Claw, the Immortal Tiger Chongun in Buya (cords – 0128/0120) and say “Dragon” then say “Earth Dragon” and “Shard”. He will mention that Baegi can make the Dragon shards. Get an Amethyst and take it to Baegi shop in Kugnae, south gate then all way to west.
Say “Shard” and for 2000 coins he will make a Dragon shard.
Now parcel the Dark Amber, the Hot coal and the Dragon shard to yourself. Get someone to hold EVERY item in your inventory and go to either Buya Rabbit cave or Kugnae Rabbit cave. Kill the Dark wolves there to get Wolf pelts. Get 26 of them.
Now go to KaMing’s Encampment via main map and talk to Gan, the man in the shop in southeast part of the camp.
Say “Desert” then “Water skin”.
Then go to northwest shop of the Encampment and talk to Sya.
Say “Water skin”. She’ll charge 500 coins for every empty water skin she makes out of the Wolf pelts. This will cost 13000 coins to make the 26 empty water skins needed.
To refill the water skins, to go Kugnae 0030/0030 and quickly drop all of the 26 empty water skins. Must drop all of them!
Now head to Mythic nexus southwest corner and enter the first room of the Sonhi Desert.
From now on, every room you walk will consume 1 water skin, and for the 1st part all the 26 skins are needed so watch out!
Follow exactly this references posted by Zuzuki on community board:
Go South x 3 times,
East x1
South x 3
East x 4
South x 5
West x 4
and South x 6.
The water skins will run out, but if followed the instructions correctly you will be in an Oasis right now. Just stand near it and it will refill all the water skins instantly.
Now go East x 14 times,
South x1
and East x1
Another Oasis, refill again and follow more directions:
Go back West x1
North x 3
West x 2
North x4
East x 6
North x 6
East x1
There will be the Gypsy camp, with another oasis and a gypsy tent. Talk to Gypsy father in south east part of it.
Say 'Cazell'.
Say 'Ogres'.
Say 'Son'.
Drop 3 empty water skins anywhere in the camp, go to the north west part of it, behind the Oasis and say “Ogre” to the boy. Then you click him to receive the parcels of Dark amber, Hot coal and Dragon shard.
Walk inside the tent in the middle of the camp. Talk to the Gyspy Mother:
Say “curse”. She’ll charge 1 Dark amber and 1000 coins to let you pass through the curse of the cave in the north of the camp. This just needs to be done once, so anyone who did it can leave and enter the sealed cave as many times as needed.
Now, once inside the cave there are 9 rooms with Mounds in each of them. To walk to the rooms in the back of the cave, just wait a little bit in front of the door and it will transfer you to next room.
Drop the hot coal behind one of the mounds to awake an Earth Dragon, now be quick and use the Dragon Shard to capture the dragon and get the Earth Shard.
More to be added as soon as I move on in the event.

The Enemies Alliance
Posted
by: Vini
-- 2:06 AM EST
|
|
A few months ago we found out about the Alliance that Bluestone and Nyog were doing between the Bluestone and Ogres.
Later on, Eldridge mentioned that the alliance had a 3rd party that was still to be found out. During a long time we tried guessing who was the 3rd party allied with the Ogres and Pirates.
We found out with the help of Ugh that there's someone called Cazell behind the pirates collecting water jewels and Swamp Ogres getting wooden staves.
We first though that the Mighty Sute was the 3rd party involved, but now with the recently found Sonhi desert on southwest of mythic, it makes more sense that the Sonhi are the ones allied with Ogres and Pirates.
Their plans are still unknown for now, but their objective is clear that they want to destroy our cities. If each of these groups are already dangerous by themselves, imagine the 3 working together.
Because of that, it's really important to try to antecipate their moves, so the search for what to do with water jewels and wooden staves must continue.
Also, on another note: If anyone has a question, a problem a complement or a complain about the news posted here in Nexus Atlas, please bring it to us, either inside nexus or by email. We'll do our best to try to help you out on it.

Event changes
Posted
by: Vini
-- 8:14 PM EST
|
|
Like Eldridge posted on Dreamweavers board, the quest to do Water Jewels and Wooden staves remained in nexus. Quite a few things changed in the event, like:
1.The swamp ogres and the ogres left the Woodlands. I guess the finally got enough wooden staves as they needed.
Planting cursed acorns in the southwest swamps of woodlands still work for people to get their swamp tree and get a wooden staff.
The sute's silver pond isn't working anymore for turning regular acorns into cursed acorns, so you will need to get then from people who saved it.
2.Empty water jugs can be done with the help of Accomplished(or higher) carpenters.
They can be refilled in Kugnae 0030/0030.
3.The smugglers are gone from southern Koguryo, but now you can reach the Island by going to Northern Shore at any time of the day and say "water jewel" and any of the two bridges there leading to Hausson.
4.You still need to pay 5000 coins to go back to it. You do not lose your Gateway or your yellow scrolls/kindred talismans anymore.
5.There you get a Rusty key just like the old part, by killing rats. Get a rock pick in the chests hidden in first room of mine and take it to the room where we used to get Qui-Hyangs. These stones are now gone, but now people can get mine rocks and trade 10 of them with the Blind Miner.
6.With the rope just go to Great crevasse, Ugh is now gone from there but the way to make a Water jewel is the same as before, just need 1 salt block in inventory and 2 water jugs.
7.The Pirate ships and the scrubs have left Dae shore. Now it's not dangerous to go there anymore.
8.The Island Mine server changed from events server to Koguryo server.
9.There's a Sonhi desert located in the southwest of Mythic Nexus.
The next part of the event will probably be added in the next few days.

Making Water Jugs
Posted
by: Vini
-- 6:10 PM EST
|
|
After today's event, the adept carpenters or higher became able to craft water jubs by saying "Wood" to ANY NPC that works with carpentering.
To craft an Empty water jug only 1 Ginko wood is needed. To fill it with water go near Warrior Guild in Kugnae.
I guess this will help out all the people who were complaining that they didn't have water jugs from previous Pirates events.
Thanks to Esprit for pointing this out!

Request to Nexon
Posted
by: Rachel
-- 5:29 PM EST
|
|
Based on several posts both on the Nexus Community board as well as posts on Nexus Forums, I can safely say that I am not the only one that is confused and frustrated with some of Nexon's official statements.
On the 5th, (DW#666) Delphi wrote, "...we don't want anybody to think that we are going to be adding or changing anything with the quest. In other words, it is all in the game, and can be finished."
Now today, just nine days later, Eldridge tells us that, "…the event will be continuing this weekend."
I quickly went back to the beginning of the sentence, but it seems I read it correctly the first time.
I don't mind short delays in events, expecially when there are bugs causing problems, so the apology for that is accepted. The problem is that we were misled into thinking that we could do more.
After the last pirate event, we were ostracized for saying, "Nexon probably has to add more to the event" (See DW #655) This time, when we are told that the event can be finished, we find out that really means that it can only be "finished" up to a certain point.
Players spent HOURS after finding the water jewel and wooden staff to try and figure out the next step of the event. Some like Conro, spent more than 10 hours on the event and ended up swearing off events all together, saying that events just aren't worth it.
We need to know what to expect. After obtaining the water jewel and wooden staff, just give us a pop-up saying something along the lines of, "You now have the Wooden staff and the Water jewel. You decide to wait and see what Cazell is up to before moving on to the next step".
We shouldn’t be punished for trying to figure out what to do next, expecially if there's NOTHING to do next. That’s why most people don’t try to figure out events: 99% of your leads will turn out to be a waste of time, you lose all your money to the smugglers, you die from a bad life jacket, etc. We are running out of people who actually want to try. I'm getting tired of trying myself.
Please make some kind of change to the way events are handled.
..please?

New legend marks

Two new legend marks have been added since a recent Nexon server reset. The two legend marks come from creating the Water jewel and collecting the wood staff.
Screenshot of the two new legend marks

Eldridge DW Post Event information 9/14
|
|
Eldridge has posted on the Dream Weaver board about the event and also the recent gold bug. Here's the post directly from the board below:
Hi guys,
Just letting you know that the event will be continuing this weekend. The people who were abusing the gold bug last week set us back quite a bit, and it took longer than expected to remove the excess gold from the game so the economy wouldn't be damaged.
And to borrow and idea from Arnold Schwarzenegger, and since these people felt that a few items were worth risking everything for, we have decided to hold a public auction of all the items that were "seized" from blocked players. As soon as we have a list of these items (when we have free time after doing the next part of the event) we will be setting up a time and place to hold public auctions and raffles of these items. Keep checking back for news on that.
Anyways, back to the event. The old part of the event (Water jewel and Wooden staff) can still be done now for people who were not able to do it all last week, but you will no longer get a legend mark from it and it has changed a little. You will also need to find somebody willing to take you to the island of the water jewel as the smugglers have finally been chased away by the guards.
We are sorry for the delay in the event, we had not planned on keeping you waiting this long, but in the hectic world of MMORPG's very little every goes to schedule anyways. The next part will start in the next few days. Thanks for your patience.
Eldridge

Rememberance walk Results
Posted
by: Vini
-- 4:37 PM EST
|
What a great event we had last night. More than 200 people gathered around the Tree of Reflections while all Kugnae was dark. People got their lanterns provided by the Royal Ministry with the help of clans and together everyone went for a walk with Prince Mhul around the gates of Kugnae.
The barricades were set to help organize it, was the place where people would get the lanterns.
A few people got a bit lost to understand what was going on, but overall most people were able to enjoy a few moments of peace, all together as one.
Thanks to the Royal Ministry for this great event, the Rememberance Lantern walk, to honor all the important people that passed through our lives. May they rest in peace while we'll never forget how important each of them were.

Event Walkthrough up to Wooden staff
Posted
by: Conro
-- 1:12 PM EST
|
|
1. Visit Hausson Inn and talk to Haggard mate.
Say: a. Smuggler
b. Trader
c. Pirate
d. Passenger
2. Talk to Mnemosyne at the beginning of muse gardens.
(Islets 72,07)
Say: a. Pirate
b. Song
c. Smuggler
d. Juggler
3. Go to 65, 42 Southern Koguryo, there is a little island with lots of red flowers. If you walk around on it (or just stand in one spot and Control + r a lot) You will eventually get a pop up.
4. Say passenger on the red flowers during 18-06 hours. You will be transported to an island. You must have 5,000 coins on you to be transported to the island!!
However, you will lose all of the money you're carrying, so bring no more than 5,000 coins. This may be a bug.
To avoid having to return to the Mines many times bring along these items before you say Passenger in the island:
-5k check (you can buy one in RedCap messenger)
-Salt block (can get it by dropping cloth in Dae shore beach)
-2 Water jug (from previous pirate events, borrow it from people if you don't have one)
5. Kill rats until you get a 'Rusty key'
6. Return to the first room of the mine and use the key on a chest to get a 'Rock pick'
7. Take the Rock pick to the only room without rats (It's deeper in the mine) and drop and pick it up until you get a 'Qui-hyang'. You can use the Qui-hyang anytime you need to leave the Island and even inside the kingdoms, but you'll need to pay 5000 coins again to return to Island.
8. Seek out the blind miner (He's in a small room near the end of the mine. Go down instead of left at the divide in the mine). When you find him say:
a. Crevasse
b. Escape
c. Rope
d. Check
9. He'll sell you a rope for the 5k check. Take the Rope and head to the room with Ugh on it, Great Crevasse (with the broken bridge).
10. Walk to the very left or right of the room, and up towards the pit. You will then be transported to the top of the map.
11. Click Ugh and read what he says. Then say Cazell, he also respond when you say Panda.
WATER JEWEL WALKTHROUGH
1. Go to the Crystal chamber in the back of the Great Crevasse, a bit behind Ugh.
2. Walk to one of the four crystal patches, and with a Salt block in your inventory, drop one of your Water jug's.
3. You will get a pop up saying as you pour the water on the crystals, some salt pours from your satchel, and starts to form a new crystal.
4. Wait between 8 and 10 Nexus hours, and then drop your other full Water jug (or leave, and return with a full water jug [to refill, take it to the Water in Kugnae, just to the right of Baek shop, north west Kugnae]).
5. In your inventory should now be a newly formed Water jewel
6.Now you may use your Qui-Hyang to leave the Island.
CURSED ACORN / SWAMP TREE WALKTHROUGH
1. Head to Nagnang's Woodlands (West Nagnang, and down a little), then seek out Swamp ogres. Kill one until it drops a Cracked acorn.
2. Take the Cracked acorn to Min butcher in Hausson and say Cracked acorn. She'll tell you that this acorn will never grow but says that a powerful magic infused silver into it.
3.Take normal acorn to the Sute's cave, to enter it you must first say 'Sute' to Eldritch, the Mage guildmaster of Buya. You'll get dyed with the Sute Powder and be able to to enter Sute's cave in North east part of Buya.
4.Once inside the cave, your dye will go out, walk to the 2nd room, called Barren graves and drop your REGULAR acorn at the northeast corner of the room, coords (0030 0000).
You'll get a Cursed Acorn.
5. Take Cursed acorn to swamps area in Nagnang Woodlands where you got your Cracked Acorn.
6. Drop and pick up your Cursed acorn until you get a pop up telling you that you planted your acorn in the ground. (RECORD YOUR COORDINATES YOU WILL NEED THEM LATER)
7. Leave the Nangen Server, and come back to your coordinates in 10-20 Nexus hours. You will get a pop up on your side text box (where spells you cast are recorded) basicly saying "Your tree should be ready now, why not have a look".
8. Return to the exact coordinates you planted, and proceed to HIT (NO MAGIC) your Swamp tree. On your side text box you will see messages if it is indeed your tree (such as 'You hit it but it seems to have no effect' 'The tree is cracking' [paraphrased])
9. Keep hitting the tree with physical attacks until it dissapears. A Wooden staff will appear in your inventory.
From here we are stuck, if anyone has made progress after this, please inform any Nexus Atlas staff about it.

Midnight cutlass uncovered
Posted
by: Conro
-- 10:03 PM EST
|
Kaelic, founder of the Cursed acorn mystery, was awarded 50 Event Tokens for his effort. He exchanged his tokens today for a new item, the Midnight cutlass. This item cost him all of his tokens.
He also told me that the Librarian told him he could choose from "any" of his wares, which may mean the highest amount of tokens to be exchanged is 50.
Congratulations, Kaelic, on your new, rare find.

Cursed Acorn mystery unrevealed.

To make cursed acorn, take a normal acorn to the Sute's cave, walk to the northeast corner of the room called Barren graves and drop it coords (0030 0000).
Your acorn will become Cursed.
While some other people were trying to sell this info for 40mil, we had a noble soul giving me a hint for free. I'll share the name of the person later if he/she allows me.
Thanks to Lorddryn for testing it with me.

Money scandal
Posted
by: Conro
-- 5:41 PM EST
|
|
About 7:00 pm EST, a shout was heard around the world by Archon Cerulean, warning that 'Those bug abusing will be caught'.
A reset happened just twenty minutes later.
After speaking to many sources, the problem was from a money duplication bug, apparently known about for quite sometime, but not severely abused until today.
A few people should of been tipped off today when a few people were making sages of buying 'Any and all rares, 20 million coins each'. A few got swept up in this fast money, and didn't bother to check if the deal was truly legitimate.
A few people have been punnished, and others are being caught. If you have been given any special, rare, expensive item, or any large sum of cash random, be sure to openly admit whom you got it from. If you are required to give back these items, do so willingly and without a fight.
If more is publicly released, I'll print names of those caught and punnished. Until then, remember these words...
"If a deal is too good to be true, then it probally is"

Water Jewel
Posted
by: Conro
-- 3:34 AM EST
|
|
A new item has been created in the room just behind where Ugh is taking rest.
In order to forge this new gem, the Water jewel you will need two Salt blocks, and at least two Water jugs (or the patience to refill your Water jug inbetween steps.
In this order...
1. Go to the Crystal cavern in the back of the Crevasse (using your Rope to get to the other side)
2. Walk to one of the four crystal patches, and with a Salt block in your inventory, drop one of your Water jug's.
3. You will get a pop up saying as you pour the water on the crystals, some salt pours from your satchel, and starts to form a new crystal.
4. Wait between 8 and 10 Nexus hours, and then drop your other full Water jug (or leave, and return with a full water jug [to refill, take it to the Water in Kugnae, just to the right of Baek shop, north west Kugnae]).
5. In your inventory should now be a newly formed Water crystal
From here we are stumped as what to do next...
Thanks from the NexusAtlas staff to all those sharing information and for bouncing off ideals with each other. With each others help, we can figure this out!

Say: 1. Smuggler
2. Trader
3. Pirate
4. Passenger
2. Talk to Mnemosyne at the beginning of muse gardens.

5. Kill rats until you get a 'Rusty key'
6. Return to the first room of the mine and use the key on a chest to get a 'Rock pick'
7. Take the Rock pick to the only room without rats (It's deeper in the mine) and drop an dpick it up until you get a 'Qui-hyang'
8. Use your Qui-hyang (It's reuseable) and then go back and get a check for 5k
9. Take your check for 5k, and 10k cash and return back to the island
10. Seek out the blind miner (He's in a small room near the end of the mine. Go down instead of left at the divide in the mine)
11. Say 'Escape', 'Rope' , then 'Check'
12. Take the Rope the blind miner gives you, and head to the room with Ugh on it (with the broken bridge).
13. Walk to the very left or right of the room, and up twords the pit. You will then be transported to the top of the map.
14. Click Ugh and read what he says. Then say Cazell
15. Head to Nagnang's Woodlands (West Nagnang, and down a little), then seek out Swamp ogres. Kill one until it drops a Cracked acorn.
16. Take the Cracked acorn to Min in Hausson and say Cracked acorn.
---From here we are stumped what to do next. Min explains about the acorn being cracked, and previously infused with a 'metallic toxin', and calls it silver, meaning it's either made of silver, or silver in colour. She also explains 'very powerful magic' would be needed to infuse it.---
-Cirra also explains that after the Swamp Ogres, whom attack the Ogree tree's, hit the trees enough, they say 'I got a wooden staff now', and then dissapear. Perhaps this is linked with it?
This walkthrough compiled by the Eventbusters, Conro, and LordDryn.
I'll be updating this walkthrough as soon as I receive additional information.

Pirates!!
|
That's right, the pirates are back!
However, this time the ships appear to be in Dae shore, which has become a semi-PK area.
The pirate ships, which are located at the east side of Dae shore, shoot cannonballs at random intervals.
Status box after you're hit with a cannonball.
These cannonballs take a certain percentage of your vitality depending on your statistics, according to Warik's research (as posted on the Community board). Some Sam San players are getting hit at around 400-600k per cannonball, while weak level 99 Merchants such as myself only get hit at 6-8k.
You can and will die in Dae shore. It appears that half the time you will suffer a PK death and sustain no losses. However, you do run the risk of a regular, non-PK death. You will lose experience and break-on-death items.
Another victim of the merciless pirates.
Pirates spawn in random places throughout Dae shore, and kill any and every person around. The pirates have already claimed many lives.
One of the many pirate ships that line the east side of Dae shore.
More updates to come! |
