Talk:Connous

It's been... a while since the artifact map was updated. most of it hasn't changed, but we have a whole lot of new artifacts to dig up in the north-east half of the map, and well... There's the oasios from Saga in the middle now, making many of the spots (which needed cool wind L-rods) unusable. I've started doing some artifact logging, but it would be nice to get some help. I'll post what I have when I get things edited

Edit: For reference, I have verified every Cobra Stone Statue, Snake Head Door, Giant Stone Statue, Upside-down Fish Statue, Whistling Rock, 1000 xp lost elf and 1500xp lost elf from the old map. They are all still there, however many of the 1500 elves have been covered up by the oasis and are inaccessible, either because you can't use cold wind L-rods there, or because when the coffin appears, you can't click on it because it's buried by a hillside. also, like... 3 of the fish statues need a landmaker, but are outside of the desert proper, where it can't be used

One thing is that we never made the artifact maps to begin with, we sourced them from elsewhere. As far as I know though aside from some things being removed due to additions in certain renewals (Muyu Desert in Rano for example to state something different from yours) the rest of the map hasn't change.

Speaking of landmaker have you been able to use it? I've been hearing about players that can't use it and in my own experience using Stomp as a giant in certain regions will no longer "dig". I'm fairly sure this is an error but I'm not sure of the extent of it.

Well there's a couple whole new(? possibly just undocumented) sets of statues to dig up from about the shylien reserve to the sandworm mark. Also, it occurred to me yesterday that the Eyes of the Sun (near the battle arena) have never actually been on the map.

Yeah, it was working just fine for me a couple days ago when I was checking the fish statues. (Except for a few that aren't in the land-maker-able sand, for some reason, but I'm pretty sure those were always like that.)

I don't recall them replacing the lost elves (removed for exploit), are they back?

When did they remove them? the 1500 xp elves west of the oasis have been my primary source of exploration XP for... as long as I can remember (Though now they multiplied the xp on the cobra stone statues, snake head doors and giant stone statues by 10, so those may become my new source). I recall at one point, right after the Filia rework the quest was not completable, because Castenea was moved into a house (and you can't bring the elves indoors), but they changed it a couple weeks later so that the quest completes at Atrata.

The lost elves were heavily involved in a duplication exploit and were removed from the game. It's possible this was far enough in the past that you either didn't notice, or weren't around yet.

They were exploited and removed? Unless Lucky Gather could be an "exploit", but that's the first I'm hearing them being removed.

apparently it was march of last year:

Hm, I see. Well that volunteer said the elves were put back...

I must have been on hiatus or something. I totally missed that mess. I've been using the Lost Elves since pretty much from the day they became a thing.

Why is it that only Connous got merged but not the other areas of Iria?

Because I was too lazy to finish what I started. x .x But I did do Zardine too.

Tell me again why everything is merged here?

We originally had like 20+ pages per region of Iria, it was annoying to search through pages (each page one paragraph long) to find information. I discussed this a few times somewhere, I'll search for the thread later.

I was just wondering why everything was merged. no researching needing x-x I was like "I forgot why it was merged"

I still see the old map and I purged the page/clear cache o-o

I see the new map just fine. o-o

I see it now x.x I just had to purge and clear cache again

Was hoping to catch it a few moments ago, didnt spawn anywhere but I should of double checked the Arc Lich's info on the Lich page. I'm going to update the information here unless anyone objects.

The Lich's info box: "Spawns Central Metus Monday, Wednesday,& Friday from 12:00 am-6:00 am Erinn Time & on Sunday: 8:00 pm -6:00 am Erinn Time " the Lich's info box

This Page: "On Monday through Saturday, it spawns at midnight (12 AM) in-game time. On Sundays, it will spawn at 8pm in-game time. "

It's been wrong on quite a few occasions...half the time I end up running into it outside of said times.

Then would it be appropriate to simply add " Appears XXX at X time on XX days and also randomly without warning?"

There used to be a pattern but at this point...I dunno I would camp Metus 24/7 if I had the time to do so

Which is the correct one?

I dunno. I've seen it appear at midnight from time to time. time to time being like...very random and sporadic.

I've been gathering some information on Metus on my userpage. The arc lich can spawn any day of the week. On certain days, you have to kill all the waves of monsters first to get it to appear.

I'm camping out here and absolutely nothing is spawning, NOTHING! Are they on vacation or something?

I noticed this a month ago, too... I thought something was off. I assume it was the urns (because it spawned bosses) but I'm not sure.

I am finding a point where it lets me enter the camp name (Because anywhere else in metus it says you cannot make camp), after entering the name it'll then tell me I can't make camp there.

Can anyone else verify?

It doesn't work on Ceo Island anymore as well. It used to work near the Sprites.

DevCAT doesn't seem to like convenience anymore...

“	Cichol claims that the Milletian use of the Soul Stream had damaged various parts of Erinn (such as Beach of Scathach and Metus)	„
—Category:Erinn

Where does it say Metus was damaged in the process? IIRC he only said Beach of Scathach.

I say Filia should have kept it's own page. It makes the entire town seem so insignificant by comparing to such a large landmass. And it's hard to determine the details of the town if it's placed on a map like this (assuming you dont look for the fullsize map and dot it down to Filia.) There's way more to Filia than just what's currently on this page.
