Coffee Forest

Image
Continent:  Lucetium Level Limit: Max Player Level: 55 Enforcement Mechanism: 100k Blocking Monster Description: Another of the more "modern" Batmud areas with several outerworld components, much like bunny valley. A good place for mid level characters to earn experience. There are a ton of monsters to kill here. There's also a fun area quest to do. Finally, there are some equipment pieces you can collect, either for your starter set, to sell, or to use in a Rixx event. Quests: Area Quest: Coffee Time Fun quest. Lots of secrets to discover. Some of the syntax is non-intuitive. The biggest monster you need to kill is around 20k EXP. There are multiple rewards to this quest. Only one of which gives you credit for completing the quest. Equipment: A pure white loincloth +1 CHA, +1 SPR Obtained from the cherub-like homunculus (40k monster) Batwiki Entry: [ Link ] A white apron +1-2 HPR Obtained from Dr. Oso Batwiki Entry: [ Link ] Halo of Flames +5 DEX, -3 cold res, +damage on...

Valley of Silence

Image
Continent:  Desolathya Description: N one that I know of.  Quests: LQ 49: Ivory Blades Warning: I've been told this is one of the more difficult level quests and requires a high level party and a lot of time to complete.  Area Quest: Mastery of Magic Equipment: N one that I know of.  Open Questions: I'm focusing on doing the level quest I will be exploring the castle, but will largely be skipping the tower I quickly got in over my head in the castle. So I explored what I could without killing, but hit a wall as I need to start murdering shapeshifters to advance farther. Map: Notes: Entrance: The big thing about the entrance is that the valley of silence seems to lead to three distinct areas, a tower, a castle and a mountain Since I'm doing the level quest, I'm primarily going to explore the castle. Castle (1st floor): In the entry hall you will encounter a comfortable looking couch When I first tried to search the couch I didn't find anything When I sat on the couc...

Village of Shrea (Also known as Hobbit Farmhouse, and Alchemist House)

Image
Continent:  Lucetium Description: A great newbie area with lots of areas to explore, many of secrets to learn, and easy to kill monsters that are not aggressive (until you go into the woods that is). Also you can become a beekeeper to earn some extra money which is always nice! Warning: Beekeeping is an investment (both time and money) and might not be a great newbie money activity Quests: Area Quest: Alchemist's Dilemma I won't spoil much here but this is an easy area quest that anyone can do That being said, one part of the quest can only be completed at night (as in nighttime inside of Batmud). You can check the time using the "time" command. Equipment: N one that I know of.  Open Questions: I need to look into the caravan side quests. See "help caravan" in batmud In the brewery cellar is there anyway to drink from the barrels (or for that matter do anything cool down there)? Seems like a lot of work to get somewhere so boring. I keep earning reputation w...

Ancona Manor

Image
Continent:  Furnachia Description: I absolutely love this area. It was really well coded and the quest is a ton of fun to solve. Easily in the top 10 areas of Batmud. One of the more Newbie/Midbie friendly areas in Furnachia. Feel free to explore since there aren't any aggressive monsters that I'm aware of.... Update/Warning:  If you wear any red clothing one of the monsters will turn aggressive and attack you. They are a "beefy" fella so it'll be a pretty quick death. Quests: LQ 48: Successor of Province This is a real fun level quest. No fighting and all exploring. So anyone can complete this! Spoilers can be found below, but I strongly recommend exploring this area and figuring things out yourself and only referring to this guide if you get stuck. Go to the manor to get things started... Equipment: A shimmering blue necklace with a silver plaque +4 WIS 'squeeze necklace' for water walking (one time a boot) This is the reward for completing the level que...

Kath'vael Forest

Image
Continent:  Rothikgen Description: One of the few low level friendly areas on the continent of Rothikgen Quests: A sub-task of "LQ 33: Northern raiders" happens here Equipment: Flute of Slave's Sigh Single hand slot (glove) +3 dex, +5% spellcasting, emits light Great bard equipment Collar of the Cat Demon +2-3 dex Dropped by Sharav (the cat pet/demon of the high priest) This is a pretty easy piece of equipment to get Sells for 4.5k to a shopkeeper. Items to sell: Longsword of the Ogrekiller: 640 gold Club of a young dragon's thigh-bone 780 gold Open Questions: I have a ton of questions. It feels like there are all sorts of secrets in this area that I don't know how to interact with What do the keys go to, and why can't I find them in every run? What happens when you win a game of chance against the skeleton? What is past Bloodlust the Giant-Kin? What's up with the peddler and does the equipment have any actual use in this area? There seems to be two big st...

Dr. Livingstone Hunting Quests (LQ 47: Master Hunter)

Image
Description: A standing quest to hunt outerworld animals and monsters across Batmud and bring them back to Dr. Livingstone in Esiris for fame and money. You will have a time limit to kill one of three different targets and bring their corpse back to Dr. Livingstone for a reward. To complete Level Quest 47 , you need to earn 250 hunting points across a single reincarnation Aka no maxing yourself to level 100, getting the points, and then collecting them on your next reincarnation. The reason I'm writing this guide is I want to highlight some of the various activities you can do when playing Batmud that aren't just grinding the same area over and over again for EXP and money. Interacting with Dr. Livingstone: You can use the command "tell livingstone help" to get more information about the quest To find Dr. Livingstone go to Esiris, and then "tell livingstone where". He will then tell you what part of Esiris he is in You can identify him on the mini-map as a ...

Mage Apprentice Training Area

Image
Continent:  Laenor Location: You can find this area by going to the Mage training tower in the city of Arelium. Go up to the second floor of the tower and then enter the portal Description: An amazing place for midbies to earn experience and money after they have graduated from the Dorttlewall Crystite Mines. There's only a few aggressive monsters, and most monsters drop money and random pieces of equipment you can sell. Also most of the roaming monsters give between 2k and 8k experience when you kill them. Quests: N one that I know of, but there are a lot of suspicious locked doors.... Equipment: Monsters drop a ton of random equipment you can sell Open Questions: There's a lot of locked doors which I don't know how to open The acid tower is the only elemental tower without a door... Super suspicious... Map: Notes: Entrance: Almost all of the monsters wander over the training area. So I didn't bother to draw them in the maps. Players will often collect dropped equipmen...
