Struggle of Winter!

[Prontera Nobility News]

As the confirmed sightings of the "Eternal Crystal" increase and the heroes of the land set off to destroy the mysterious artifact, the spring begins to show signs of its release as the grass grows and the flowers starting to bloom. However, despite of the weakening signs, snow lingers in the city as Prontera faces the awkward weather of snow among the greens.



It is suspected that perhaps more of the "Eternal Crystals" remain in this world, holding the Spring's breeze from the land. The presence of the crystals continue to exert its chilling force, although weakened, by bringing along the presence of unnatural habitats of the icy or cold, aquatic regions.

Question remains of whose crystals do these belong to? Professors in the city of Yuno were only able to identify their magical properties but were unable to trace its source. Strangely enough, the folk tellers of the satellite city Izlude claimed that there's some similarities in the "Eternal Crystal" with the city's old folk tales and legends of the Byalan Ruins deep in the undersea tunnel...

Task: A total of 52 crystals exist across the world, in both dungeons and maps alike. Destroy all 52 crystals to bring back the Spring!

"Eternal Crystal"'s enemy data can be found ingame with "@mi eternal crystal". Beware that the Crystal, though not overly powerful, along with all of its allies, are aggressive and potentially be on any map. GMs are not responsible for deaths due to crystals on maps that originally are "harmless."

There's hints and a vaguely held theme to where the crystals are placed (although there remains exceptions). Reread the news article for potential hints.

Eternal Crystals do not ever respawn.

GMs will *not* provide which crystal(s) on which map have been destroyed. GMs will update how many total number of crystals remain once at late Saturday night only. Result will be posted in this thread here. Note that 9 of the crystals within this cycle are carried over from the previous round.

Note: careful that some crystals come with powerful new friends!

There are currently 2 Crystals left (Mar 23 3:42 PM)
Hint: They are *all* outdoor!

Updates: only 5 crystals left, and they are all on outdoor maps!

A server reboot was originally scheduled tonight to do some fixes and adding the newly introduced monsters. However, that has been delayed ... Originally we thought that we can handle manually spawning for one day without much problems, but perhaps to be fair we'll post a "temperate spawn table."


I'll check if the map has 1 Levia Lusca and 3 Eralia at these following time intervals. If they are still alive, then not going to do anything about it. If they are dead, then I'll replace it with another one. Yes, this does make it so Levia has fixed time spawn that is independent on what time he dies, but it's only for short time so I don't think that it's all too unfair. The point of posting this is to be fair and transparent after all.

After reboot, their spawn time is still in discussion and is subject to change! (sorry to those who read this earlier before the edit and it projected some unverified numbers)
