Notes From BatMud

Continent:  Lucetium Description: Treetop village with a lot of locked doors, each with a unique key that changes per boot. Basically, expect to do a lot of searching to unlock all the doors. There's some "secrets" in the locked rooms, but mostly this just opens up more areas to find creatures to kill. In the "non-secret" areas, there is only on aggressive creature (a racist old catfolk) that will attack non-catfolk players on sight. This makes the area fairly safe to explore for newbies. The locked rooms do not grant explore EXP though, so feel free to skip them unless you are trying to solve the mini-quests here. The bridge guards WILL become aggressive if you start to attack townsfolk though. So be careful about that. Tons of secrets to discover and it is linked to several other areas E.g. Orc Samurai Some of the creatures will block you if you attack them and try to flee, so this is a good area to come with a party so you can ensure you kill things without n...

Continent:  Desolathya Description: A mid-level area with a lot of secrets Has some high-level monsters to kill for equipment Make sure you have the ability to see invisible since many of the monsters are hidden. The *generic* weapons monsters drop sell for around 1k gold each which can be nice for mid level characters trying to make some money Quests: You might need to show up here as part of LQ33: Norther Raiders [ Link to Northrend Guide ] Equipment: The Robes of Haliban the Archmage +1 SPR Obtained by killing Haliban the Mongrelman Batwiki Entry: [ Link ] Tattered Yellow Robes +2-7 WIS, +2 Mastery of Protection Obtained by killing the old man (100k monster) Batwiki Entry: [ Link ] The Bloody Tail Spike of the Wreched +2 avoid Obtained by killing the Wretched (300k monster) Batwiki Entry: [ Link ] Black Skeletal Plates -10 charisma (yup, this is an item to sell or sacrifice) Obtained by killing the Wretched Batwiki Entry: [ Link ] Open Questions: Is there a way to enter the fron...

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 it possible 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...

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...

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 ...

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... You can "enter pool" in the acid area to go to a room with a 100k mage. I've been told if you kill them for the first key. Map: Notes: Entrance: Almost all of...

Continent:  Desolathya Description: Back story : Member of the Crimson Skull League (Chaos Warriors) are attacking the city As the name implies, this is a burning village. You will periodically take fire damage while in this area so don't idle here, and don't regen inside the area itself. A small area that is good for level 30ish players to make some money and exp.  Mobs drop a lot of equipment that you can sell. Also a major city (Calythien) is right by this area making selling equipment to vendors very easy. Note: There is an entire shadow realm version of this area that is accessible via the shrine The shadow realm is a step up in difficulty but can still be tackled by players level 35-40. Quests: No official quests, but you get some neat flavor text and a belt for saving the village priest. You can then free some shadowy souls from the raiders to get a shadow blade. Equipment: Dark Shadowy Scythe + Cold damage scythe Good for a newbie Reaver. Otherwise sell it. Sells for 1...
