Description

Example of an ancient medal from the Rano region.

Ancient Medals are quest items for obtaining the Elf's Falcon skill and the Giant's Beast skill. Giants need to obtain the ancient medals found in Physis and Elves need to obtain those found in Connous, however, both races must also obtain all nine Rano Medals to complete their respective quests. Ancient Medals are found on or around landmarks in Iria, via L-Rod Exploration. They are not able to be stored in pets, nor traded between players. They ARE allowed to be stored in the bank, but not able to be traded between characters in the same account through the bank. Note that all medals are also able to be stored in the Special Tab Inventory, thus saving room if you were to pre-collect the medals.

Specific landmarks do not only yield their corresponding ancient medal but instead yield a random assortment and only from their specific region. The regions with their own specific set of ancient medals are Rano, Connous and Physis. Some landmarks are believed to be a better source of certain ancient medals than others.

Via L-Rod Exploration, each landmark will yield a few chests containing ancient medals and then will not yield any for a while. If a player has found all the chests at a landmark then no player will find any until they regenerate. Staying on a single landmark and swapping channels, after running out of chests on one channel, will probably yield a significant number of the different ancient medals specific to that region (as long as other players have not recently uncovered any of the chests at that landmark, on a channel being searched). It may be a good idea to search for ancient medals at a time when fewer players are on a server.
