Digga's

 Continent: Laenor

Description:
  • Digga's is a collection of many different mini-areas for players of all levels, from Lowbies to Highbies, all tied under a single story/theme
  • There are several different level quests, lots of secrets, and contains joining location for the Barbarian guild
  • Currently I'm going to focus on the Newbie Park, as I'm writing a new player guide. I'll update the other sections later.
Quests:
Equipment:
  • Fearsome Newbie Axe named 'Onog' <red glow>
    • Rewarded for completing LQ17
    • You must be under level 30 to wield it
    • +damage, so it's actually pretty nice if you use axes.
    • Sells for 1 gold coin, so don't expect to get rich off of it ;p
Open Questions:
  • This guide currently focuses only on the newbie park. There are many, many more areas in Digga's, including the Barbarian guild
  • What is up with the beautiful trees in the Newbie area? They are represented as items and you can target them with magic spells.
Map:
Map of Digga's Newbie Area


Notes:

Entrance (Narrow Path):
  • At the "turn in the path" if you "enter bushes" you will find yourself at the joining location of the Barbarian Guild.
    • You will need a "barbarian ring of friendship" to actually join the guild.
    • You can get this ring by releasing the barbarian in the Raven jail in this area.
    • Warning: If you take the "path" exit from here without being a barbarian, you will find yourself in a "dense forest" maze with a bunch of aggressive high level barbarians. Instead exit "SW"
  • By the large tree, you can see a note that the city of Raven is offering a reward for each barbarian head brought to the taskmaster in town
  • To the East is a mountain pass. More about that in the section below.
  • Eventually you come to the entrance to Digga's Newbie area to the west.
    • There is a magical shovel dispenser if you don't have a shovel already!
    • Also if you type "newbiehelp" in this room you'll get some basic equipment. Hopefully you already have better equipment but it still is nice.
    • If you ask for it more than once per boot, you will get hit by lightning for around 50 damage.
  • To the north is the road to raven, but there are aggressive creatures that will jump out of the woods and ambush you along that road
    • Which is another way of saying, if you are a newbie, don't go north!
Newbie Area:
  • There is a "very beautiful tree grows here" that is an item in one of the rooms.
    • I could cast magic spells at it, but I really don't understand what it does.
    • It seems weird enough (aka it is an item) that it probably is important in some way
  • In one of the tables to the south, if you look at it the table will collapse and four aggressive termites will pop out and attack you.
  • On the shore of the pond, you can "dive" to enter the pond
  • On the bottom of the pond you can "search floor" to find a pair of rusted silver sleeve armour
    • It is for the left arm
    • Maybe this is part of LQ 70?
LQ17 (Still Newbie Area):
  • In the southern picnic area you can find the Ranger
    • They want Yogi's head on a platter
    • They say that Smokey has a suitable platter, and that we can figure out the rest
  • Smokey is in the western area of the map
    • There is a firepit next to him and some wood. If you have a torch (available via the newbiehelp command at the entrance) you can "make fire". This fire will heal you and Smokey doesn't seem to care about it.
    • Kill him and he drops a silver platter
  • Next go kill Yogi the bear who will then drop his head
    • "put head on platter"
    • Go to the Ranger and "present platter"
    • Congratulations, you completed the LQ.
  • Quest completion message:
    • You offer the Yogi's head on a silver platter to the Ranger.
    • The Ranger looks at the platter closely.
    • Ranger grins evilly.
    • Ranger tells you 'Thank you for completing the task.' 
    • Ranger tells you 'As a reward I will give you this nice axe. It is only useful for newbies and not for very long.'  
    • Ranger reaches behind a tree and drops something on the ground.
    • Congratulations! You have just completed Platter!
    • You receive 2783 gold as a reward for completing the quest.

    • Digga pops right out of your ear!
    • Digga licks you.
    • Digga exclaims 'Way to go!  You just completed Level Quest 17!'
    • Digga licks you and disappears!
Mountain Pass:
  • The cave has some very aggressive and tough trolls at the entrance. 
    • Unless you are much higher level, do not go in here
  • There is an old sage sitting on top of the mountain
    • His name is Barney
    • He keeps talking about some armor (probably associated with Level Quest 70)
      • The Barbarian Chief has the torso for the armor
      • The paladin wearing it went to a crypt to fight evil and died
    • He also recommends checking out Ikar's area
Raven:
  • Walking on the road to raven, creatures will jump out of the forest and ambush you.
Kill Tracker:
  • A marmot lies here sunning itself
    • 750 exp
  • A cute little bunny rabbit
    • 160 exp
    • Drops some bunny meat if you need food
  • A beautiful deer grazes nearby
    • 1600 exp
    • Drops some deer meat
  • A frog is hopping here
    • 500 exp
    • Drops some frog legs
  • A duck looking for a snack swims here
    • 450 exp
  • A mean termite
    • 300 exp
  • An ant that is raiding the picnic site
    • 450 exp
  • Smokey the Bear stands here
    • 2650 exp
  • Booboo the Bear
    • 1700 exp

New Player Guide

Image
Introduction: Intended Audience: The goal of this guide is to help new players get started in BatMud. This guide is roughly divided into advice for newbies (levels 1-15) and lowbies (levels 16-30) I'm going to assume that people reading this have some familiarity with other text based MUDs (Multi User Dungeons). I wish there was a good "true new player guide for MUDs" that I could link to here, but I don't know of one. So I feel bad about this assumption, but if I dive down into that level in this guide then I'll never get around to publishing anything. This guide does not take the place of Batmud's official tutorial. I strongly recommend taking the time to run through it when you create a new character. What to Expect and How to Use this Guide: I'm going to make this guide largely spoiler free so if people want to explore and learn on their own they can. That being said, there are many spoiler filled area-guides in this blog! I will link to some of thes...

Riftwalker Guide

Image
Guild Location: Continent : Rothikgen World Location: Randomly moves but can be found in the lake in north-west Rothikgen north of the Riftwalker cave. Look for the 'O' in the lake, and once on it "touch sphere" to enter the guild. Warning: There are a large number of vampire bats (they show up as 'B' on the map) that roam around the guild and will absolutely murder you when you are full of EXP and trying to get to the guild to spend it. Guild Requirements: Magical Background Disclaimer: I haven't earned the Magic entity yet or done any end game content like rift raids. So there are huge gaps in my knowledge about being a Riftwalker. I'm writing this guide to document what I'm learning as I learn it. My Overview of the Guild: Riftwalkers have the ability to summon an elemental entity to tank for you. This provides some of the best Newbie solo abilities in Batmud as you can cast damaging spells while letting your rift entity take the hits. The tr...

Dortlewall Crystite Mine

Image
Continent:  Laenor Description: Located in the newbie town of Dortlewall Area for newbies to grind EXP and to obtain a currency called crystite to purchase newbie equipment The equipment is *very* good, but will only work until you are level 60 Level Limit: There is a hard level limit of 40. Aka players level 41 and greater can not enter the mines Quests: Area Quest: It's a Drill You need to fix a broken drill on the second level of the mine To do this you need to find three machine parts. I'm told the machine parts can spawn differently for different players.  Aka where you get the parts will be different, as well as what parts show up where.  For example, one person searching the junk in the abandoned food store will find a Stone Pin, and another person might find a Ring with Ball Bearings.  Also one person might need to scavenge the broken drill while that drill might be empty for another person. You will briefly visit here if you are following the Batmud Story "T...
