Artefacts? Part 2
by Ugdalf
and once the ferryman appears give the golden skull over and accept its teleport menu - you will then appear on the ferry and have to walk on a teleport field to enter gauntlet. In there is a
spot with healer who charges 5k per resurrection, a shop that sells all you need - need to walk through a hidden hallway to get in there btw. ...and then the fighting
rooms:monster bashing turns run clockwise - you enter a sealed room through teleporter field (have your pets close to you else they stay out) and got to kill whatever is
spawned in there to be able to leave the room again (unless you do that as a ghost). Each monster you fight in these rooms brings you one step closer to the final boss, Dark Father,
and also has a chance to drop the good arties inside your backpack. :)However once you ran through all rooms DF spawns outside near the entrance area - he will spawn guarding monsters
(no arty chance on them) out of bonepiles that he did toss around, if you can get a bonecutter script else prepare to fight lots of additional stuff. DF got chance on arties for you again. But
its just a chance, dont expect to receive something on just 1 run or 2 or .. .. you get the picture.tokuno arties:those split up into 2
types: lessers who can be received by killing litterally everything and greaters where you have to go to zento town, to npc minister of trades and hand him 10 lessers to receive 1 greater arty.
Rule of thumb about tokuno arties: best chance will be like 1:4 that a killed monster will drop an arty. This chance can be reached faster by having high fame/wearing high luck suit and builds
up slowly by killing tokuno stuff - the more dangerous a thing is, the better increase on your chance. But as it wont exceed the final 1:4 you could also hunt big critters for like 1-2
hours and then drop to an area where lots of small things wait to get killed - as even birds could drop you those arties (1:4 ^^ on everything at best). Once you got your arty drop -
chance will drop afterwards of course.. back to lowest chance plus bonus from fame/luck. (oh and all of this happens only on tokuno facet - if one wonders :) )
custom server arties:Most often referred as Mordul arties.. these come from a fighting quest. On feluccan graveyards spawn occasionally Mordul - keeper of the scroll npcs
these are basically golden hued ancient liches - they respawn once every 3 hours+ and got a low chance on holding a "scroll of balthazar".. you need this to start the fighting quest in a special
area near the ilshenar chaos gate. You got to hand the scroll over to an npc inside entrance area and kill a npc called.. right, balthazar - this could be done alone if you are equipped right
and dont lag too much but nm.. as the npc will hold next scroll in his lootable corpse you should only take trusted ppl with you. Next stage would be to kill Zaridor, a similar mage npc and
doable solo too - but he carries the last scroll .. "scroll of Kratos" and this one really hurts.After joining a couple groups down there it boils down into.. the more dexers run around with
low ping the more group ppl die as all the running around just lets Kratos walk to someone who is atm casting or lagged and instantly killed - and theres never enough time to try to bandage one
nor are fast runners looking to crossheal anyways. My suggestion there is: group should at least consists of 2 fast casting mages that toss blade spirits out, that should keep Kratos in 1
spot, and then as many Dexers (2+) as you can with ranged weapons chopping him slowly down. Cant tell where the arty will appear but i highly expect it on Kratos'body, so trusted group..!
