Vulkania: Grab your flip-flops and your pith helmet!
With the summer season comes the urge to have a picnic and take long walks... through the deepest darkest jungle! Luckily, Vulkania is back, just in time for summer! Grozilla and Grasmera will be your guides on a cheery group tour... of hurting!



What, you thought that a vacation should be safe? Pft! You never value your life more than the moment after you almost lose it! And you'll never appreciate how precious your existance is more keenly once you've survived the explosive safari that Charlie's Agents are offering on the Island of Vulkania! Located south of Otomai Island, this exception archipelago has a flamboyant atmosphere like no other.

Activities include: Decending into exstinct volcanos, trekking through tropical jungles, expeditions in crystaline caverns, and hunting Sauroshells solo or with friends!

This year, the island offers up a grand buffet of surprises:

* The gruesome twosome, Grozilla and Grasmera, have four levels of strength. Weaker adventurers can now stand up to them, but beware... The monsters’ strongest states will pose an even bigger challenge than last year!

* When defeated in their two weaker states, Grozilla and Grasmera will drop tokens that can be exchanged for a new pet: the Krolimea. Moreover, players that defeat the island bosses for the first time will obtain the Vulkanian Salute emote.


* New! A competition between Vulkorog and Otomaisle has commenced! Players will win points for their team by completing quests that can be repeated again and again. Each week, the winning team will see a special shop open on their island for 7 days. But that’s not all...! The winning team will also have access to Maimane Rock, where players will have the opportunity to obtain two new emotes, one per team!

I understand why the raws spawn rate was reduced, but now its taking me literally hours to complete the quest portion of this, I can't even get them to spawn.

Is there a guide somewhere for the quests? I am stuck on Thunderheart. I was supposed to go meet someone who is behind all of this on a map by crackler mountain but don't see anyone.

Also, I am unable to get the new emote to work. My island won yesterday, Tuesday and I got to that map with the emote shinning but it wouldn't work. Others complained of the same for them.

Update: I found a little spot on the map that you fall into a hole and get to the proper spot to meet the guy in the Thunderheart quest, so that's ok now.

However the emote still doesn't work.

So, today's patch is installed and still raw shells are rarer then most arches. No change then.
Just to rant a bit, count of novice shells on Rosal is right now 356, and 240 of that I collected on first few days with my 8 accounts. Means that the rest of the server contributed with 116? Yay
Wow I thought Rosal was better in these kinds of stuff. Till now I haven't figured out what today's patch was for.
I also though Rosal was better in this stuff, atleast I wont do much unless they improve the system and decrease the requirements.


-Yen.

Sorry, it came ultra small for some reason O.o Anyway, main point is that I think everyone's lost hope in this lol.

This is Shika's progress, minutes before posting this.



I would really like to try gain as much as i can, but I don't think it is fair that some people try harder than others, while the people who don't put much effort as those can reap the same benefits
Checked Shika status before leaving for work this morning... these numbers are almost EXACTLY the same still...lol. I think the Venerable is about 580, but the other 3 are still almost exactly where they were. It's almost like the island is being boycotted...lol.

Thursday night, I spent a while with my team hunting the high level Raw Shells for Shika, and was very proud to submit 120 shells for my hard work, taking us from about 250 to 370. Last night I logged on to see the progess our server had made... we were around 500ish... ouch! I was kind of bummed about this (all 3 lower levels were still less than 200 each), and kind of lost hope of getting our server unlocked. Saturday & Sundays are Shika's busy days, and we gain hardly any shells... at this rate we'll be lucky to have it unlocked before the island is closed back down...lol.

Anyway, I do hope that something will be adjusted to the current 4,000 shell requirement.

Hey Benj, it's good that you gave a helping hand to Shika, but I suggest you stop because it's not worth the hard work. A week or something ago I started farming them, not actually farming because I never found a decent mob. I later went to that NPC underground, looked at the low numbers we had, left and never went again lol. I advise people to calm down on this as small servers are hardly ever going to obtain 16k hearts in two months.
Yeah, I was talking to my brother on Saturday morning, about how I added 120 hearts and was excited about that... but I also mentioned to him that I was going to check on Sunday evening to see what progress was made over the weekend... if the server did well, I was going to continue to help, but if it was poor, then I was done. Needless to say, the results were very poor...lol. So instead, I spent a few hours last night spamming Frigost souls I had saved... got really good XP.
Atta` boy

Serious mode activated : Unless they'll arrange this burden, we're not the only ones who will quit killing those sauroshells.
