How the hell are you killing three hardened skeleton archers? I don't know if I could barely kill one. This is bullshit. Reported.

e: I'm only seeing a couple veins of silver at a time, at the end of the mines behind the breakable wall with the earth elementals. This is the right place right?

There are ~4-5 silver veins in a side tunnel before you reach the bottom chamber and that has the majority. Some of them will respawn before you leave because it'll take a while to work through all the elementals.

I feel like this is really stupid to ask, but how do you get to Owl's Head now? The boat from Ardoris to Kingsport is gone since the last release I played. Is it the mopngate in Solace Bridge or what?

Boat just outside Brittany dumps you outside Kingsport on the overworld.

There's another boat inside Brittany Central that takes you to Kingsport docks directly.

Incidentally, if you ever find yourself wondering how hardcore the PVP players actually are in SotA there is one interesting statistic. 0.0% of the lots are claimed in either PVP flagged PRT (Brave Coast & Coral Cove).
I'm sure you can see the implication.

Just something to keep in mind if you ever come across a self professed PVP enthusiast in game.

Well if the connection to Kingsport moved to Brittany, I guess there's not much tying me to Ardoris and I should place my lot in Estgard or Brittany for sure. Easy access to Owl's Nest was my main concern for staying near Ardoris.

Are there lower tier scenes near Brittany? I can wreck house in the Soltown catacombs and the 2 Perennial Trails, but I'm still a bit outmatched in most of the 2 skull scenes.

Its not the one with the 3 skeletons behind the breakable wall is it? I didn't see that tunnel.

Could be wrong, but appears to be: 40-100 serpent scales, 10-30 obsidian chips, and a 10% chance of a non-gold crown of the obsidian.

Welcome to the future viking city.

I'm giving everyone officer rank since why not but also so everyone can invite anyone. /G is handy for talking across modes and zones.

Don't care if you invite non goons should you (gasp) have RL friends or whatever. Just do what you like.

Just did a 4 hour totally blind dungeon crawl with the lunar dragons starting in etceter crag mines and falling apart between midgaeard passage (or whatever it's called) and the spectral mines when a bunch of people who'd run out of arrows went into spectral mines instead of back toward kiln, couldn't get back because of a locked door, and got torn apart by angry wizards.

It was so fun, so exciting. I know a day's going to come when every inch is mapped & everyone knows what the gently caress the "spritual barrier" around that megaboss lich in etceter crag is, but for right now, everything seems crazy and cool. Finding another false wall with like a dozen gold nodes behind it is incredible. That hilarious 5 false walls in a row tunnel in etceter crag was cool, finding that first key & getting it into the lock felt so good like we were working toward finding more incredible stuff, an adventure we thought was about to wrap up just kept going. Gosh.

If they could bring all the zones up to the fun/quality level of some of those mine areas, this game could be something really special.

Pole arms are great once you learn how to use them. Only melee weapons that can hit multiple targets too.

I have been looking around but I haven't really found a combat guide for Polearms. Do you have any tips? I find that sometimes fights are over incredibly quick, and other times I get beaten down by a yellow and have to run for it.

Also I added you Alexander, tried to send a whisper but I must have just missed you. In game name is Londo Mollari.

Thanks for fixing the Soltown fire quest, Lum!

If you don't mind taking more quest report bugs in this thread (too lazy to log into the main forums,) Bodan in Braemar gives a quest to kill a wolf pack leader in the South Vale Trail. I killed it, but didn't get an update, and he doesn't respond to me when I told him about it.

e: Also I will accept all Release Grand Tour hats as a thank you. thank you

Tracking who gets credit on a mob kill for a quest is currently borked up for scenes with other players. Go kill the stupid wolf in SPO for now. (I don't know why you're bothering)

I got a viking rowboat decoration for my house in viking city. Doesn't make much sense since I'm nowhere near the waterfront but ¯\_(シ)_/¯

Also, you didn't do last telethon? You get these clockwork wings (different but still cool)

So today they crossed the 10 million dollar mark, so everyone gets a cape of some sort. They also raised $200k during the telethon and ran out of ideas for stretch goals.

If you dropped at least 5 bux today, you got:

- Airplane emote
- Wow quest symbol top hats
- Aeronaut Outfit
- Mini automaton pet
- An in-game camera emote that takes black and white photos
- Clockwork Armor with radio in helmet (?)
- Flaming Bagpipes with leather & metal kilt
- An umbrella which changes the weather
- They couldn't think of anything else when we hit $200k but we'll get something else but they have to think of it first

As for me, I spent $11 and got a pair of wings and a flute in addition to all of the above so I'm a pretty happy camper.
