Never seen a speck of keldrinite. evar.  If you want people to participate, it should be easier to get.



Then it wouldn't be a quest now would it? You guys complain that you are bored.  You complain cause quest are not challenging enough. Especially, the Gods. So we got together and came up with some ideas. I will say again,  Rose spent months working on this quest. Now, you complain cause you have to give up an item, you probalby never use, that just sets in storage? Next you guys will want us to #posses you and run around and kill the bots for you so you can gain exp with out you ever having to touch your keyboard.


Oh and by the way. I have seen sneak previews of what is to come, and in my opinion, it is well worth it. Have I ever steered you wrong?

Now that demon zone is gone its impossible to get.  Getting the items was not really challenging. We did it in one day I think.

We don't see a good enough reason to give up the rarest almost impossible (was almost impossible now it really is) to get item.  Its a quest. Make it compelling. We should WANT to give up the keldrinite to help.  I would recommend removing the keldrinite requirement but make everything else require more. We shouldn't of been able to give it all the skeleton bones and echanted stones in one day.

How do you know that the rest of the quest is not worth it? That is the whole point of it. People just want things handed to them. Look outside the box for a minute. When have you seen something like this on the server? I don't think the whole time I have been in the server, (3+ years)anything like this has been done.

Each person was meant to contribute what they could, this is the reason that you were not told the numbers of items needed. Rusty Knives were for low rl/levels to donate, so they could help. Instead, a god just went and killed a hundred grunts.
It was greed that motivated some of you to donate things like rusty knives when you had the capability to donate other things which were just as needed. Only a few people on the server have Keldrinite. Who did you expect to donate it if not yourself? If you donate the keldrinite, then you can ask and encourage other players to donate the rest of the items. 10 low RLs donate just 10 rusty knives each and that part's done. But you donated the knives, the 1000 titanium, the 2000 estones, 75 paws, 75 anchets swords, 10 triplates, then complain about how much you've already donated when the last item is needed.

This quest was not designed to be completed in a single day, it was designed for people to work together and to give everyone a fair chance at taking part in a large multi-day/week event.

I offered to donate my kls and I think Mega offered to donate his kls and karmor. We don't though. For some reason you think those items aren't as good as keldrinite. I took one of my keldrinites to make that kls. Why should it be worth less? Mega took two keldrinites to make his karmor. That requires a fullplate, a mil coins, and a bunch of other items.  To say that those items are worth less is ridiculous.

It also make less sense in the quest. Why would warmaster want keldrinte but not karmor or kls when he is collecting items for a war?  How can weapons and armor be worth LESS in a war?

I consider it a quest design problem when it was ment to last for weeks but lasted for a day. 1000 titanium, 2000 estones, 75 paws?  Come on, between all the gods you should of figured that this would of been finished in 10 minutes.  I'm not asking for a handout. I'm saying if you want to make it last more than a day you need to ask for way more than 75 of an item.

Xenos: Keldrinite ores are currently worth more in the context of the quest because they are currently less abundant than items made with Keldrinite. It would be a relatively small matter for a lot of people to give up one of their Keldrinite long swords right now.

Everyone else: The quest will continue when one of the active players with a Keldrinite steps forward to support Keldrenia. Until that happens, just quit your damn complaining and level normally. This quest was months in the making, it can wait.

I'll give my casting blade and heavenly shield if needed, but there's no clue as to how to get keldrinite.  Since Demonszone is gone, no chance of getting it in the near future.  I don't see how I'd get to level 1500 to mine keldrinite, in time for whatever the quest has in store.

I am intrigued by the mystery of what's coming up, but like I said, when I talked to the warmaster, he said he had all he needed.  I'll try again, but I don't know what to donate.

Oracle is a spawned bot, Warmaster is a player-bot. We thought DZ was disabled because the bot was off map (zone diags doesn't seem to kill them).

Warmaster will say he has all he needs because during the course of the quest I changed a few of the numbers and it threw off the percentages.

Then how are we supposed to know what he needs?

He tells you what he needs when you say items.
