Description

The Royal Astronomy Society Sponsorship request system is a feature of Mabinogi that allows players to be rewarded for the completion of assigned quests. In addition to items required to advance in Stardust, the player can also obtain gems, totems, cosmetics, enchants, etc.

Society Sponsorship Quests

• Players will unlock the Royal Astronomy Society Sponsorship system and receive a guide quest when their character reaches cumulative level 3,000.
• After completing the guides, players can obtain Society Sponsorship quests from Melwyn in Dunbarton.
  • Players may accept one Item Request Fulfillment (tasks regarding Life skills) and one Core Fragment Collection (tasks regarding Combat skills) at a time.
  • Players may complete an infinite number of Sponsorship quests per real-life day.
  • Players may exchange one Item Request Fulfillment and one Core Fragment Collection every in-game day.
    • This resets at 6:00am.
  • Quests come in five difficulties: A, B, C, D, and E. Higher level requests require a higher character Total Skill Level.
• For a list of possible Item Request Fulfillment Sponsorship quests, see here.
• For a list of possible Core Fragment Collection Sponsorship quests, see here.

Total Skill Level

• Total Skill Level is the cumulative number of ranks in both combat and life skills that a character has.
  • Dan Ranks do not count; any skill above Rank 1 is counted as if the skill was Rank 1.
  • All Transformation skills, include Demigod and Divinity skills, are ignored.
  • All Celestial Body skills are ignored.
  • All Crusader, Technique, and Stardust skills are ignored.
  • Only current ranks in skills count; resetting ranks will also lower Total Skill Level.
• The Total Skill Level is displayed on the Additional Info tab of the Character Info window and at the bottom of the Skill window.
  • Total Skill Level is separated into Total Combat Skill Level and Total Life Skill Level.

Milestones

Issues

• Normally, asking Melwyn to change a current quest while its completed will direct you to hit complete without putting the quest change ability on cooldown. If the player completes the quest before being directed to but after initiating the dialogue, Melwyn will act as if you had changed the quest. This activates the quest change cooldown.

Trivia

• If a Shadow Mission received for the Core Fragment Collection Sponsorship quest is the same as the Daily Mission, completing the mission will count for both quests.
