Hints & Tips

No matter what the quest log says, no quest requires you to be in a team in order to finish it.
No matter what the quest log says, no quest requires you to use a certain skill (melee damage, magic damage, root, etc.) to kill a mob. If you want, you can use magic to kill mobs needed for a fighter quest, and the other way around. This especially applies to the quest in the Magic line that says you must root Javings to kill them -- root does no damage by itself, it merely stops the Javings at a distance where they cannot hit and disarm you.
Some quest log counters don't update after every kill. For example, for the "Team work" quest, you have to kill 10 Javings. The counter will stay at 10 until you kill 10 Javings. Only then will the quest entry change.
If you are on a team, and more than one member has the same "kill X mobs" or "kill a named mob" mission, each kill will count for only one of the players with that mission. The credit is random. This means the team must kill enough to satisfy the mission multiple times for everyone to be assured of completing theirs. Fortunately, as players complete their missions, kill credits stop counting towards them and go only to players who still need to finish.
If a quest requires you to find a material of quality X, a material of higher quality will also count.
You can use the "/target <name>" command to find NPCs, mobs, or players. The command has a 250m range, and <name> can only be one word. For example, if you want to target the Dominant Cray, you can use "/target dominant" but not "/target dominant cray". As you might expect, this will catch any "Dominant"-named mobs in the area, so you may still have to move around to find the Cray. Also, the command does not work for all NPCs. Both the word "target" and <name> can be abbreviated.
ROOT and ROT are two different spells.
Ask for teammates, resurrection, and Silan-specific help in the /region channel. The /universe channel is for more general questions.
YOU CAN LEAVE SILAN AT ANY TIME. Once you are comfortable with:
- Selecting Skills by spending skill points,
- Creating your own Stanzas for Combat and Magic,
- The basic principles of Crafting,
- The basic principles of Harvesting,

Then talk to Chiang the Strong as directed at the very end of this page.

In the service of people #2

Loot and give 10 x Q10 Basic Yelk Mushroom
Requirement Fear 1
- Reward: 15000 xp, magic amplifiers

Basic Yelk Mushroom is looted from Yelks that are found in and near the Ruins of Silan.

- Warning: Yelks have an AoE poison gas that is released after they are killed. This is the reason that Fear is a requirement for this quest. The Yelks will not release the AoE poison if they are feared at the moment of death.
- Protip: If you're working on Melee and Magic both anyway, melee the Yelks using a Stanza that includes Increased Damage 2. Melee them with it until they are at around 30% health, then use a Stanza that includes Fear. You should be able to kill them before they run out of range with one more use of the Increased Damage 2 Stanza, causing them to flop down dead within 3-5 meters of you. This is an excellent way to reduce downtime between Yelk Kills. As a side benefit, the Harvesters gathered on Yelk Hill will send you fewer hateful tells for killing a Yelk on top of them. :)
