Sgail Reopened

Post by +Nyx »

Sgail has been reopened (finally).

Modifications:
- Two additional repeatable quests added for accounts over 6 months. The rewards for these quests are gold and ointments. We will keep an eye on the amount going out and if Colibri feels it is too much, then the amounts will be modified.
- An Sgail dungeon has been added, and Ximestis moved to the end of this dungeon. This dungeon is only a single level, but we think you will find it sufficiently tricky to navigate, and give you a teensy taste of what +V has in store for all of you in Touria. :) Your account must be 3 months or older to enter this dungeon.
- Claim re-enabled.
- Gold drops decreased across the board. At the time Sgail was created, we did not have the option to modify the amount of gold dropped by mobs. While +V did not want the mobs on the island to drop as much as they did, the gold drop amount is tied to the type of mob via scripts on the shard and in order to create a difficult area, he was forced to allow the gold to be excessive. Since this was never his wish, and the option now exists for the staff to modify the amount of gold dropped by mobs, Sgail's gold drops have been brought down to match +V's original intent.
- Inadequately geared players can no longer be "run" through the leggings quest. This was being heavily abused previously and was the primary reason Sgail was closed. The quest remains almost exactly the same, but now the player working on the quest must obtain the key to Ximestis themselves and fight him alone.
- Rindial no longer requires 4 players to summon. The tiles to summon him must be stepped on in sequence, and one tile has been relocated next to his altar.

Is this an area that a mid level player can run through with a Bio, or 5 imps (un-ointed)?

Love it! The modification to Ximestis makes it much, much better :)
Jeez I see Ximestis's name all the time and still had to edit it twice.. Starting to make me feel like a confused cockatoo
