Hi.
It has been brought to my attention that several of you new and slightly confused individuals are having trouble accessing the FB29 (Deception) dungeon. It is understandable considering there are some extremely awesome changes (intentional or not) that have happened with this latest patch.

So! Are you level 21+ and trying to reach that dungeon guarded by a slew of excited PKers? Not to worry! There is a wondrous device created by the ancients to prevent you from dying at the hands of the masses on the way in!

It is called the Illusion Stone.

Note: Using the Illusion Stone will cost 5,000 coins for this teleport.

If you do not have 5,000 coins available for the teleport I highly recommend running outside West Archosaur's gates for approximately 10 minutes and killing everything in sight, and picking up your drops to sell at a local Tailor, Blacksmith, Apothecary, Merchant, or other NPC. It should not take any more than 10 minutes for you to accumulate the amount necessary for this teleport, at level 21+.


If you are UNDER 21 and need to access the Deception Dungeon:

Generally people under level 21 will be accompanied by a higher level character that is assisting them on their quest. You or this higher level should announce in General Chat "Me and (insert name) are passing through, do not PK us or we will screen shot and report you." This should give you access. People do not generally like the idea of being banned and you will most likely be left alone. If for some reason you are not~ do as you threatened. Screenshot the "You were killed by" message and submit it via the ticketing system. If you want to you may then go back and say "I have reported you once, let me through or I will report you again and you are guaranteed a ban." Or something similar. Ignore any negative comments they may reply with.

Do you have quests inside the Secret Passage?

When you enter and are in safe zone, kindly announce in General Chat "I am here to do quests, don't kill me or I will screen shot and report you." This will generally get people to leave you alone, and may actually get you help on your quest if a nice bored pker is around. If they try to snap back with any kind of reply of a negative manner, simply ignore them.


Now! A note to the people exploiting the glitch!
DON'T RUIN IT. If someone is obviously low level, don't kill them. If someone is obivously escorting lower levels: Don't kill them. Use your common sense and maybe they will let us keep this for a while. We all know it's frikkin rad for us bored higher levels.

That having been said, I hope this guide was helpful. Now stop posting about it on the forums. We know it's being done. If you were killed don't post about it here, submit a ticket. Thanks much.

Dear wonderful Guide writer,
I enjoy seeing someone take the time to type out a wonderful common sense guide for logical people to read and understand. I only see just one flaw to it.... THE DUMBA$$ people who are ****ING it up are not logical or intelligent enough to even READ your guide to know when to NOT **** it up for those people who want to enjoy it.

While I totally respect the thought you have put into this guide, I also note you tell those players who might be doing their quests the advice of announcing their intention of wanting to pass... I have witnessed about 100 people use your advice long before you took the time to type out this guide. The vast majority of the time players from some of the most well known factions on your very server have used this opportunity to TARGET those individuals with the very intention to PK them. With this observed data I would say there is a HUGE hole in your guide advice.

It is wonderful to see a very methodical guide for something that normally would be great for new players to follow and I myself would recommend it to others in game on how to complete any needs for Secret Passage however those players who are abusing this change, again intended or not, by harassing other players and who are not following the TOS provided by the very company embracing this change clearly flaws your guide. I am quite certain if the common sense advice you have given in your very methodical written advice had not already been tried LONG before you took the time to write this guide... There would not be PAGES AND PAGES of detailed well written complaints from players who actually use common sense. Your time might have been better served to have written a detailed common sense list of creative alternatives to achieve the same goal of Open free PVP currently in SP.

Each of us will give you credit for taking the time to write up what most of us already know to be common sense its just sad those people who actually NEED your advice at the bottom of your guide dont seem to use actual common sense. What I really dont understand is why someone like yourself who has taken so much time to write up a guide like this wouldnt already know you were wasting your time talking to players who clearly want to ruin the fun of others and will never actually listen to your advice causing those players who already knew to follow your advice long before you wrote it to continue even today writing letters to China and investor relations to get SP changed back before bleeding of new players and more bad reviews are posted on gaming sites.
