Hi
I got some quests at lvl 75 that required me to go in frostcovered city....and I have no idea where that is. Here are the quests: Ruthless ones (think i need to kil some boss), comforting jade (it said I need to do it in solo mode first to unlock squad mode). Also I need to find Frost Lord Holan....where is that...in frostcovered land solo mode?

Beside from the questions above...here are some more. Is it easy to do it solo for a BM? At what lvl I will have a chance in there? Thank you very much in advance to all who help.b:pleased

    All the quests except Comforting Jade need to be done in squad mode.
    Frost Lord Holan is in Squad Mode.
    Very doubtful you'll be able to solo it.
    To have a decent chance, I would estimate level 100+?

    the solo mode is very doable, just get a team of cleric barb and you around the same level, and you guys should be fine, oh, bring a veno too so they can pull for you.

    u can have a full party of 6 in solo mode. Solo mode is easy. A team of lvl 80's have completed party mode in my guild but had a tough time.

    The quest:

    - Once a day you can enter solo mode for free, no fancy uber sub needed.

    - im a lvl 78 veno and my golem can tank all the little minibosses, at lvl 80 a golem can even tank the real boses with a 2nd veno healing.

    -run around and kill everything that moves and collect the fragments and essences to make the 6(it hink) types of curvades. Once you made them all you can complete the quest for party mode(which is crazy hard).

    -Curvades can also be used to summon the bosses in solo mode, similar to TT the drop rate is bad but you will get loads of fragments and essences. Just dont use a robe user to summon the boss cos it spawns almost on top of you and instantly kills you.

    PS. The exp is pretty good in solo mode (1600 exp for gate mobs, and around 500-700 exp for normals)
    one tank and one healer or two venos can easily do it and make a quick bunch of exp.

    You can teleport to FC using the stone next to the teleporters in arch (west and south). or fly up to the NW corner of the map and you will notice the portal infront of some ruined structure.

    Wu's make me cry when I'm alone b:sad

    Barb, Cleric, Veno can pretty easily clear all the way to the last hall, add an Archer for the Wu's and you're golden.

    i've gone thru frostcovered city a bunch of times solo and finally collected all the curvades. i turned in the comforting jade quest, but still can't seem to open squad mode. what else am i missing? tried talking to the pillar with 3 ppl in squad just to test it, but no squad mode option- do i need more?

    also, i never actually got to the "end" of solo mode, as it seems completely impossible for a solo veno to pass the last 6 Wu's in the hallway. i have an eldergoth, and he will attack the first 3 Wu's you encounter before the door, but for some reason will not attack the last 6 in the hall. so it looks like there is one room at the very end that i haven't cleared- is clearing that necessary? based on all the other rooms with pillars, i'm assuming it's just another boss that drops essences and frags.

    anyone out there successfully open up squad mode and actually go inside yet? if so, please tell me how! b:surrender
