S P O T L I G H T : Hugelby: Nidhogg
on: May 15, 2014
Hello, hello! In spirit of Official RO, we'll be launching our own SPOTLIGHT! This monthly event is designed to try and bring visitors back to these lonely maps by boosting rates. This includes monster spawn, exp, drops and quest and mini-game rewards/exp.
To coordinate with the Spotlight, we'll be releasing gear sets in the item shop that may be helpful to those just starting the dungeons. The gear sets are located in the Misc section of the Item Shop.
This month's area Spotlight is HUGEL!
Introduced in Episode 10.4, Hugel is located in the far north east of the Schwarzvald Republic; a small rural coastal village that is quiet, yet festive. It hosts a variety of games and activities for tourists, a quaint little chapel for outdoor weddings, and is home to the Hunter Guild. If you have friends handy, the Bingo hall in the top left allows a group of 5 players to play, and the monster races take place in the bottom left corner of town. If you prefer to solo, there are a smattering of quests and headgear npcs, both official and custom, spread throughout that are available for your perusal. Those interested in adventuring can take a short boat trip from the eastern docks to Angrboda Island, where the remains of the great Odin's Temple stands. Abyss Lake and Thanatos Tower are also only a few maps away.
Boosted spawns in the fields include:
ABYSS LAKE
Travelers can find Abyss Lake in the northern part of Schwartzvald Republic. The lake's clear, pristine waters seem to run endlessly into the earth, and no one is sure of the water's actual depth. A small island lies in the center of Abyss Lake, covered with dark, earthen rocks that appear purposefully arranged, almost as if to obscure something...
Please note: You will need to complete the Abyss Lake Dungeon Entrance Quest in order to access this.Boosted spawns in this dungeon include:
THANATOS TOWER
Aside from scarce historical documentation and spoken legends, very little is known about the tower's origin. The most widely accepted theory is that the tower was built to honor the legendary magic wielding swordsman Thanatos' victory over Demon King Morroc.
Interested in extracting its secrets, Rekenber Corporation has restored the tower's lowest floors and has opened them to the public, charging admission to tourists to fund their continuing renovation efforts.
Please Note: There is a party requirement of 5 or more for Level 3 and up. To access Level 7 and up, you need to be Trans class or Level 95 Non-trans. Thanatos MVP is also only summoned by completing the Thanatos Tower Quest.Boosted spawns in this dungeon include:
ODIN’S SHRINE
The Odin Temple was built ages ago by an ancient civilization who worshipped the god of lightning. They gave everything they could to make sure the temple was perfect, culminating in a massive structure that spanned almost the entire island. However, their devotion and loyalty was all in vain when civil war broke out between the various leaders who vied for the favor of Odin. Soon enough, destruction and death came as the warring factions nearly wiped each other out, leaving only ghosts to stand guard to the greatest secrets of Odin.
Please note: To access this map, you'll need to talk to the NPC at Hugel (209,109) and select "Sure!" to pay 800z for transportation.Boosted spawns for this map include:
In addition to the gear sets, we are continuously working to add more and more items into the shop for wider accessibility. Make sure to check back weekly to see what's in!
Event ends June 18, 2014.
