Just figured I would bring up this topic. I have seen a lot of beginner elves somehow find their way in Archosaur, and well, it's just that, how are they getting lost? :( This same thing happened when I started out on an archer, I wandered too far from City of the Plume and ended up in Stairway to Heaven, from which I got shot by an endgame boss, to where I was sent to a village, and finally, to where I was sent to South District of Arch. I had to swim all the way back to City of the Plume b:chuckle
I am curious to see if there are others who make the same mistake as me, and if there are any theories on how us new elves get lost b:thanks
I've sunk so low in the sea of sadness

    Well sometimes, people make cleric alts to fly over to Arch, because they don't have to worry about mp regeneration, and use them as catshops. That's 1 reason why you see clerics there, as for archers, could be the same, but I doubt it.

    endgame boss, in stairway to heaven? by no means. nothing around there is much over level 60. (excepting possibly sword tamer...) but, yes, more than enough to oneshot a single-digit-level char, true.

    good thing about elves, they get to fly around and admire the game map right from level one. bad thing about elves, they need to learn how to USE the map to find their way back again right from level one... me, while playing my archer very early on, i recall going sightseeing and landing at this interesting cluster of empty huts seemingly in the middle of nowhere, i was wondering why they were there. only to immediately get killed by a taurox advisor, and respawn in tusk town. lesson learned: buildings do not mean safe area.

    another good thing about elves, you can meditate for a while and even if you're an archer, a full MP bar will take you almost halfway across the map. which is enough for most purposes.

    Psh fish can adventure too.
    When i was a low lvl on my psyc, i went adventuring around the map, by swimming from the ocean and all that, just to see how fast i was in tide form rofl. Was more of a pain going back to the TB land.
    But yeah i have a alt cleric cat shop as well lol.

    Well at least clerics/archers have wings and can fly back to safety. I remember when I was low level on my BM. I couldn't leave 1k Streams. Walking to Ether from there was a PAIN.


    Good times.
    Feel free to PM me for help.

    Some just like to explore, like my brother. His 5th level barb ended up trapped in Cromagnon Village until my dad flew his 14th level archer over there and directed him out from the air.

    lol I know that I made a cleric to help me open up TT at one point or another. But I don't use Cleric Catshops. Unless I'm running around on my VenoFox. I do recall a very VERY early experience with my brother playing a Mage, wound up over by Anger, and couldn't leave. I had to go and save his butt.
