Town Crier Rumors

Free Rumors

Town Crier tells you, "A long lost city has reappeared in the deserts of Dereth."

Town Crier tells you, "I don't know if you've noticed but the undead seem far more frightening lately."

Town Crier tells you, "It is said that the A'nekshay were a peaceful race of elementals... before the Mu-miyah got a hold of them."

Pyreal Rumors

Town Crier tells you, "A long lost city has reappeared in the deserts of Dereth."

Town Crier tells you, "I hear of a new prismatic arrow that changed damage based on the bow used to fire them. Amazing the new things that show up in this world.""

Town Crier tells you, "There are rumors that Geraine and Asheron knew of the existance of Neftet. The question is, why has the city reappeared now?"

Ulgrim Rumors

Free Rumors

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I got a contract for ya... go get me a stout."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Is it just me or do all the undead walking around here look... well a bit more undeadish I guess. I don't even know what I'm talking about anymore."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Neftet? I used to hang out there all the time back before the Mu-miyah made a mess of things out there. Those A'nekshay are some good folks."

Stout Rumors

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Don't you worry about where Deewain went to. I'm taking good care of the big softy."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I wouldn't call it the Lost city of Neftet. It was simply hidden by those too weak and unworthy to find it. Since I am sure you are one of those, you can find it east of Yaraq."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So there is a new Empyrean who is willing to show people how to unlearn all of their skills to focus on new ones now huh? Then there's the guy who will let you adjust your augmented resistances, and the people who will go into your head and mess with your natural talents. I remember back when people had to actually prove themselves and had to work to be good at something..."

Known Issues

  • The Scroll of Lost City of Neftet Recall uses the Paradox-touched Olthoi Infested Area Recall Icon. Corrected.
  • You must re-log after suppressing fire on your undead toons. I would assume the same goes for shadow smoke crown.
  • The descriptions on some contracts don't match actual contracted quest in the journal. Contract for Assault for example has a description for Drudge Aviator but appears as Assault Quest in the contracts tab.
  • Prismatic Ammunition is doing typeless damage with some bows.
  • The Icon associated with the Prickly Pear is actually the Icon for the Snow Lilly and is scheduled to be fixed next in the next Event.
  • Contact Location incorrect for Bemeth the Gatherer on Ancient Tablet of the Crystal Sword/Idol/Staff/Amulet contracts. Incorrectly places him in Ayan Baqur (59.7S 88.2W) instead of the Encampment near Neftet (22.2S 6.1E).
  • There is a bug when attempting to tailor classic covenant look shields onto olthoi shields, the color will change to the color of the dragon logo from the sacrificed covenant shield but it will remain an olthoi shield.[1]
  • Greater Deadly Spike, and Greater Deadly Broad Spike incorrectly named Deadly Spike and Deadly Broad Spike, and the icon overlay "D" from the regular Deadly Spike and Deadly Broad Spike still visible behind GD.
