Tips
- Echopus are Lv45 and weak to lightning.
- Keep going afterward: A Fragile Sanctuary (Daniel the Scholar, Lv50) picks up the story.
- Luma should sell Return Scrolls to Forgotten Hollow (800 mesos), which take you straight to the village.
Still being confirmed
- Forgotten Hollow opens Nov 18, but these two quests may not start until Dec 9.
- The unlock order isn't clear yet. Matters of the Heart is tied to an earlier Forgotten Hollow quest, so you may need to finish another quest before Nyroth offers it.
- An extra step (20 Rafflesia Petals for 25 Blue Potions) isn't in the current version but could still show up. The final turn-in to Jaime isn't confirmed either.
