Day 05 - Rare Spawns

Today's adventure was rather eventful given it's length! Things started off rather strangely, I logged in to find Pokari City under attack by wave after wave of little Rattero Bandits, and then Weasel people. Some sort of event was under way, like a rat rebellion against the cats. Needless to say I was a bit confused, but found that by participating I netted an obscenely large amount of EXP! Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures in my stupor, bad reporting I know! But it definitely set the adventure off on a good start to get a nice boost right at the start.

Not long after I discovered my first rarespawn... Minesweeper! No, not the popular desktop time waster, it was a Jaqisac Arson that walked up and down the trail. (As opposed to wandering in a small area.) He put up more of a fight than the others, but he was no match. He didn't drop anything special, but he did reward about 5 silver, which against the usual 5 bronze the normal guys net, it's a rather nice haul. I also had a little fun with one of the cards I got from the Arsonists, now I too can be a creepy TNT carrying guy with bathing trunks an underbite and tiny glasses.

On I went, and as I continued to quest I discovered my rare spawn eventures were not quite over. I noticed one of the Knocknee Assasin's walking in a straight line, and on approaching sure enough it wasn't a regular old Knocknee Assasin. The Warlord's Wife put up a fight but soon she fell as well. In addition to the additional silver, this one dropped about 5 items for the "Lv20+ Diplomatic Quest." Unfortunately, I have about 0 inventory space left all together, so I had drop all of this junk, because I simply can't hold it to Lv20, but now I know where to find her at least.

Just after that I ended up helping out another traveler with one of their quests, in return they helped me out with one of mine. I also got a chance to see Mystic in action, and though Mystic is the game's dedicated healer, I couldn't tell that was the case for a single second in combat their offensive spells were more than formidable. Soon I had collected all of the items I needed to construct a seal to help the Carp Fisherman get his fortune told. My next task was to dunk the materials in the lotus pool to finalize the creation of the seal.

After all that was taken care of, I was informed by the Mayor of Pokari City that now that the roads to the Post Station had been made safe, I had a delivery to make. I was to head up to Fort Pheonix, gather some stone and lumber and deliver it south to the Post Station. Fort Pheonix was the one starting area I hadn't been to yet, home of the Ren, so it was a chance to explore. Off I went, I gathered up the supplies and took them south to the Post Station. Here I received another quest concerning Bahuu Mageban and his two lackeys.

This quest told me to go to The Hunter's Cavern Instance, so seeing a spot marked "The Hunter's Cavern" on the world map nearby, I naturally assumed he meant there. Of course, I was wrong, as this cave dead ended and wasn't an instance. That said, there was a giant tiger guy NPC at the mouth of the came by the name of Bahuu Mageban. I talked to him and accepted his challenge, it was a grueling fight I would have lost if it weren't for a load of potions and the help of my Assasin's healing spell. He fell hard, but he didn't reward me, and I didn't get the item for the quest.

I'm still not entirely sure what the purpose of him being there is, or what the Hunter's Cavern is supposed to be, but it's safe to assume it's not for that quest. Either way that was the end of my journey for the day. I made my way back to Pokari City, tommorow maybe I'll try to get a group and go into Gnawer's Cavern and see if the Bahuu Mageban in there is the correct one for the item I need.

Until next time, Akakiba, signing out~
