44 | Sometimes you hit a bug in the client. To reset the state of your client |
|
|
45 | you can delete your client database directory (your client will have to |

|
|
157 | |
|
|
158 | =head3 What areas are there to explore? |
|
|
159 | |
|
|
160 | First, you should explore Scorn and find the port pass (and maybe also the |
|
|
161 | gate pass). |
|
|
162 | |
|
|
163 | When you finished most of the quests in Scorn you should investigate how |
|
|
164 | the pirates escape from the prison. This will lead to a number of nice |
|
|
165 | quests in and around Port Joseph. |
|
|
166 | |
|
|
167 | Another nice series of quests, from low to medium level, can be found in |
|
|
168 | the King's Palace in Scorn. Who wouldn't want to meet the princess in |
|
|
169 | person? |
|
|
170 | |
|
|
171 | The areas you can reach through the various transportation modes in Scorn |
|
|
172 | are Pupland (which has a lot of puzzles and quests from very low to very |
|
|
173 | high level), Stoneville and Santo Dominion (low and medium level quests, |
|
|
174 | also nice shops), and the Aldwulf Archipelago (which is more dangerous). |
|
|
175 | |
|
|
176 | Through the gate you can reach Euthville and Santo Dominion to the north, |
|
|
177 | Brest (medium level) and Lake Country (medium to high leve) to the south, |
|
|
178 | and Navar (medium level quests) in the east (a long travel). |
|
|
179 | |
|
|
180 | From Navar you can travel to Darcap in the far north (medium level |
|
|
181 | quests), near the mystical country of Azumauindo, to Wolfsburg somewhere |
|
|
182 | on the ocean, a rather dangerous area with many thieves and pirates |
|
|
183 | (medium level quests) and Valleynoy to the south, with medium and high |
|
|
184 | level quests (did you find the southpole yet?). |
|
|
185 | |
|
|
186 | Also, it is said that Navar somehow has access to the mystical City |
|
|
187 | de Clouds, the biggest city ever seen (high level and very high level |
|
|
188 | quests). There are rumors about lands beyond (St. Bartholemew and other |
|
|
189 | cities) and other even more mystical places, but little is known about |
|
|
190 | that. |
