WHOA!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!
= = = = =
Yesterday I felt like a fly for the most part ... buzzing around here and there trying to get rid of some of these quests that have been here forever. Remains of "very really days"* (lvl's 0 to 10ish) running around talking to every one and then forgetting what's what. I finally managed to do a couple. But others allude me. At the risk of getting slapped for being "afk" here what I have, reading in game and typing slooooow typing on computer:

1 - Bring the magical object from the crypt to the adventurer standing in front of the pyramid.
- been to the centre of the pyramid various times,
- opened door went in and got whatever was there, no idea what it was, and
- the adventurer standing in front of the pyramid has never had a (?) over his head.

2. - The ring, given by the witch, feels like ancient magic and makes you shiver. Talk to Ascanius!
- been all over the library looking for him ????
- been all over 3.2 looking for him ????

3. - Bring the black pearl to the pirate in the tavern.
- from what I read here this is a tough one and
- I've seen an image of just where the dude is to get that black pearl from
- IF he shows up. Seems like he is very selecting as to when or who. Possible lvl requirement to I suppose.

4 - Bring Red Mixture to the alter in the dungeon underneath Silverwood Castle.
- HEY! First time I've seen this is today ... ?????
- OK I have Red Mixture in bank - or tavern

5 - Bring a Yellow Mixture to the alter buried deep in the dungeon guarded by green dwarves.
- OK I go there, fight a few enemies - get a key
- I still get "Need a key to open door" deep in dungeon

6 - Collect 8 wood planks, 5 steel ingots and 3 fire bows for the people in the village.
- 8 wood planks - just a matter of time
- 5 steel ingots - matter of tome
- 3 fire bows - kill some yellow archers (maybe more than some)
- village I'm guessing its the one 3.-1 or 3.-2 (the one south of the cemetery where vamp spawn)

But the end of the day, early hours of this morning I went for a walk with GOLGREN. He ROARS! I squeek, taking me deep into a place to left me what away at a few cyclops ... OH MY!!!! I need some serious levelling up for that place. :)

Today I will search the forums and see how to upload and display and image. It's a little thing i did that will save me some typing on the absolutely horrible 'virtual' keyboard if I ever need it..

Time for a café.
- - - - -
* Imagine that, me talking about "early days" like I'm an old pro or something. {chuckling out loud here}
Just yesterday, at lvl 76, I walked by someone that had a million (slight exaggeration) enemies around him and he was dropping them like flies, and up pops "NOOB!" on my screen and I walked away thinking "Yup, and proud of it!" because after all we are ALL "noobs" at something right now, ya gotta start someplace. and to "whoever_player(xxxx) - of course I'm a knob. And a good chance Im a noob that's old enough to be his/her/its father, grandfather or even great-grandfather.

I am NOT old, I am "Experienced" :D

Ascanius is at map 0 , -2: somewhere near the top, I think. The guy at the library is Sebastius. You've maybe mixed the two up?

Ahhhhh no wonder ... I'm half a world away. :oops:

And to make it worse, it's obvious from the quest I have talked to him already :)

Recall Item: #127; lost in the dungeon of my mind.

Thanks Leone

Glad you like it. I was wondering how long it would take for someone to point it out ;)

Always a pleasure to read your posts.
I'll answer all I can.
1 - Bring the magical object from the crypt to the adventurer standing in front of the pyramid.
Spoiler: Show
This was the item in the chest, or sarcophagus, if you will. If you have it in your inventory, it should be able to be finished. I believe, the item was a wand, but I can't recall.
2. - The ring, given by the witch, feels like ancient magic and makes you shiver. Talk to Ascanius!
Spoiler: Show
You need to go find him where he gives you the bracelet quest, and then sends you to the library. If that's not enough hint... just ask ;) ....whoops someone already spoiled it lol
3. - Bring the black pearl to the pirate in the tavern.
Spoiler: Show
The pirate who gave you this quest was in the tavern. The next step is to talk to an npc outside the tavern. He'll want a golden dragon.... which you'll need to be at least level 360 to acquire as a pet. Save this one for later.
4 - Bring Red Mixture to the alter in the dungeon underneath Silverwood Castle. AND
5 - Bring a Yellow Mixture to the alter buried deep in the dungeon guarded by green dwarves.
Spoiler: Show
The altars are part of a larger, later quest. There are several of them. You can do them now, I'm sure, but for the later parts, you'll need to be a higher level. IIRC that level is 250, but I may be wrong, it may be higher.
6 - Collect 8 wood planks, 5 steel ingots and 3 fire bows for the people in the village.
Spoiler: Show
The NPC who gives this is located east of Martek's Stronghold. I think on map 3.-2, but may be 3.-1.

Whoops, missed one.

I think you're on a computer, so you should be on the full version of the forum, not the mobile.
When making a post, you have this window you type your text into (where I'm typing this text right now)
Above that are buttons for formatting, and below it are the save, preview, and submit buttons....
Below that, you should see more options - under two tabs.
Click the Attachments tab.
Then, add files (note, only some file types are allowed).
Once you upload it, the file will appear in a list below - with options beside it.
The rest is pretty much self explanatory to one with forum experience, but I'll direct you to the "place inline" button, as this one may not be obvious.
If you do not use it, your attachment will go at the bottom of your post.
However, if you place your cursor where you want the attachment (usually, a picture), then click that button, it will add it to your text.
You can move it around, even duplicate it if you like.
This is great to know if you want your pictures in specific places.

Awesome Thank you. Not an option I have seen in any forum I belong to. They all request and external 3rd party image host.

Still answering the big one above.

It would fit for any ModSquad anywhere!

Always a pleasure to read your posts.
Thank you
I'll answer all I can.
1 - Bring the magical object from the crypt to the adventurer standing in front of the pyramid.
Well that's gone then, I probably gave away whatever was there. I think it was a scroll IF I'm right.
2. - The ring, given by the witch, feels like ancient magic and makes you shiver. Talk to Ascanius!
Yup Leone, and in this case didn't mind the spoiler at all, I was ½ a world away.
3. - Bring the black pearl to the pirate in the tavern.
Spoiler: Show
at least level 360
With the spoiler (edited a bit) I really don't have a choice ... I have a "few" more levels to go. :arrow: :lol:
4 - Bring Red Mixture to the alter in the dungeon underneath Silverwood Castle. AND
5 - Bring a Yellow Mixture to the alter buried deep in the dungeon guarded by green dwarves.
Spoiler: Show
but for the later parts, you'll need to be a higher level. IIRC that level is 250, but I may be wrong, it may be higher.
OK another to not worry about at this time ... ±160 lvl to go to do it right
6 - Collect 8 wood planks, 5 steel ingots and 3 fire bows for the people in the village.
OK, that's a start ... first I need to collect all the stuff and store it until I have it all.

Thank you.
Will start the last one today.

The item was Lvl 10 Red Wand. If you lost it, only a GM can help, as it cannot be acquired any other way.

Wow last post Friday ...

Saturday - can't remember much about what I did, maybe I completed a quest or two but in the end I went red mummy hunting and made it to lvl 80.

Today is Mother's Day here, so ... no time to play really, had a house full of women from 8 to, well, older than I am, and one brother-in-law.
Everything cleaned up and I'm tired. Will get on a bit later though, maybe, I think, I hope ... can't let the old blade get rusty.

Anything happen in FT World I should know about?
Or you think I might like to know about? {grin}
