On a Sunday morning, I was lazing around at the fountain in City Rebolduex when Brunie came by to chat. It wasnt long before she started talking about her latest exploits in her treasure hunting and there she taught me how to hunt. Surprisingly, many pioneers didn't really put much thought into this and just camped at whichever map they happen to be leveling at.
Rule One: First decide which treasure you are searching for,
Rule Two: Next, scout around to find out which mob drops that treasure, and the rates of the treasure dropping from the mob
Rule Three: Find out about the mob's spawn times, places where it appears, before deciding on a suitable team and weaponry to put on the hunt.
Thats easy to say, I remember retorting, and then I grabbed the opportunity to ask her how then should I hunt for one of the most expensive items on the market, the DragonHeart recipe. After a moment of hesitation, she decided to share about it,
The DragonHeart recipe drops from several bosses,
i) The undead King of Greed, that spawns in Underground Cave of Bahamas, (one spawn spot) as well as the special dungeons (four possible spawn spots), 2% chance of drop
ii) The elusive beast, Swamp Frogfish, that spawns in Bahamas Swamp of Darkness and Peril, 2% chance of drop
iii) The Sacred Vespanola Soldiers of Sacred Chaos Requiem Dungeon, 0.003 % chance of drop
iv) The Avalanche Apparition that resides inside the Katovic Colony, 2% chance of drop
I realised then how this information can make my hunts more focused and effective. How about the Constellation Symbols? She replied quickly that these symbols all have a 2% chance of drop, its all about finding out which boss drops the respective symbols and where to find them.
"The Symbol of Aquarius?" I interjected,
"You need to hunt the General Guard deep within the Secret Tower, or Dilos Lamtern in the Arenas..."
Ok, I am really impressed now, and so I asked the final question.. "Brunie, can you tell me.. where to get all this information?"
She paused, stared at me in the eyes, and replied,
"The lores of the treasure hunter is in written form, if you want to find this tome, ponder then these words,
wordwood of merseine"
With that, she laughed and sauntered off...
