Unicorn Quest

[tdewey10]

Okay so I've met the named unicorn in Kojan but no quest. Is the quest not in game yet or do I need higher faction with Tanvu or CB? (I'm a raki so its pretty high already). I'm level 39 so could be its a higher level quest.

Any info appreciated.

There's a unicorn in Kojan?

There's a unicorn in Kojan?

Yes. There are a few Kojani Unicorns. My understanding (perhaps incorrect) is that the named Unicorn provides the quest for the unicorn mount. Just seeing if its my faction or level or (not in game yet) or ?? that is preventing me from getting it. Anyone willing to fess up?

I'd bet not in game yet. I've heard none of the special mounts are.

I found a Unicorn in Khal too by the player housing on the Baraba Coast. There was a dialogue box but no quests available. He didn't seem to fond of "two legs" so maybe in the future you have to get faction for him.

There is a Unicorn in Thestra too. And it will not speek to you until you proved your worthiness through a quest.
I finished it and could speak to him for a few sentences. The unicorn told me to return later... +smile+

where is the unicorn in khal?

The one in Thestra near Silverlake says the same thing. Don't think he likes the local fanatics that are hunting them and the griffons.

Mind sharing what quest got him to talk? I have done all (I think) of the quests in that area minus Cairnworth.

Knowing now that there are unicorns in each continent, I'm sure you along with me are concluding they are connected. =p

the quest starts from a unicorn horn which is a rare drop from the zar people on the island. You need to kill 3 names that spawn on that island and collect 100 flowers to summon zar himself.

[cyraxsmoke]

dont find it in Baraba Coast... where is it? I run all the coast...

Yes.

Thank you, I'll have to look into that now. =)

[Puchiko]

just north of the player housing, not by the water so a little closer to the mountains, there is a flat part where a hill is. He's at the top of the hill about in the middle. I couldn't see him till i came over the hill even with my draw distance at max. If i was on that side of the continent i woudl take a screenshot.

Have you found a quest for this or just want to see one? There's unicorns wandering Leth Nurae city so they aren't that rare :)

[cyraxsmoke]

founded tkx:)

I was just curious. :)

My favourite mount is Pesasus and I hopo to see one

[tdewey10]

could be the case. I now have 1,001 faction with the silverlake unicorns and have been offered no additional quest (beyond the initial unicorn horn quest). Alternatively, you could just need a heck of a lot of faction. Takes about 8 hours to grind out the first 1k, but subsequent sets of 1k would be a major pita (unless you're a Sorc and can just AoE the mobs to death). You get 100 faction for killing Zar so if you and a group do it properly you can get 600 faction off the bt (off the bat equal about 3-4 hours of picking flowers). The remaining faction you have to get the old fashion way -- 1 kill at a time.

The unicorn (and shadowhound) quests aren't in yet, but they are being worked on now. I won't give a time frame for when they will be in (we all know how dangerous that is!) but they are coming. :)

Checked the usual suspects on Thestra and still doesn't appear to be in game. Howver, there was at least one change to an area with a uni so possibly the quest is in game but has an insane amount of faction for the starter quest. On the off chance it was in game as a drop quest I killed a bunch of unicrorn trappers but nothing dropped. Didn't check out the unis on Qalia or Kojan so anyone see anything there?

* * *

What's annoying is that it seems like the elements of the quest are in (trapped & etc. unis) and the named guys will talk to you about their problems but you don't get a quest to resolve the problem.

[Valencia123]

Well, now that the unicorn mount quest is finally live, anyone have info on what you need to do in order to complete it? And can the quest be started on each of the 3 continents, or just on kojan? If all 3, please name the exact locations. Thanks in advance.

[Moomoo]

Its hard to give you a full details on the quests coz there are too many of them and I am quite sure no one has yet to be able to complete all of them due to the server down.

The quests are pretty straight foward. Just follow the instructions.

[Adwaup]

every time I swim back to Tursh from player island I pass a lvl 15 "Injured Unicorn" that's on an island swarming with lvl 27 ettercaps . Sometimes it's dead and I see it's corpse and it has an ettercap targetted but I would guess it is there for a reason (some quest no doubt) , most likely a rescue quest .

Rescue it and then it will be in debt to you forever!

Where exactly is this "Player Island" on your way to Tursh?

[Moomoo]

Okay just finished the whole freaking long questline. Reward is a choice of unicorn from 6 barding colors. Stats: Stability +30 Speed +60.

During the quest, you have to pay 10G to buy a quest item.

Honestly I am a bit dissapointed with the stats as you have to pay 10G for a quest item along with a freakin long chain of 20+ quests.

Will post screenshots later on. :)

The quest starts in Silverlake(Thestra) from a drop(Unicorn horn) in the middle of an island. You will be required to get 40 yellow flowers, 30 red, 30 violet in order to summon the boss that you need to kill. The mobs are all around lvl 23 and the quest is lvl 23 at that point.I recommend you do that part grouped.. much faster that way. Only one person needs the flowers to summon. After you complete that you get to do an escort ;P A very long run but easy enough.. Only one person can do it at a time (Hoping this will change!) Then you get to run to the middle of Qalia for the next quest! :D This unicorn will give you a quest to kill 45 De's whom enslave unicorns. The DE's do have a pretty hefty respawn time.. Took 15 mins to respawn a whole camp for my group. You have to tag them to get kill credit and I recommend this is done grouped. After this you get to run far far far far east to get some rare drops off of names and witchdoctors (Skrillien point). It took me 15 mins to complete but for the rest of my group it took an hour for the bard to finish and my paladin spent a total of 5 hours trying to get these drops and when he finally got his last piece and recalled he CTD (We both did) and when we came back he was rolled back ;P So he dint have the last bit he needed (Bye bye to the pallys hope of getting a unicorn) Run all the way back to the middle of Qalia to find out he wants you to run all the way to a far far west islands known as Jalen. He tells you to go back to the unicorn in the middle of Qalia because he wants to track down more of his kind. This next step takes you to Kojan. I recommend taking the teleporter to Tanvu and swimming upwards towards the islands that they are at. It's the fastest way! :) For Gathrael (One of the two unicorns you need to talk to) the easyest way up to the top of his island is on the south end. I'm currently on this part waiting on my hearth. So far it's been a pretty good and long quest.. Needs some tweaking done to the drop rates.. 5 hours to get 3 items on just one part is uberly stupid. There wasnt even to many people farming there besides my party. As to the above post about the 10g for a quest item.. I hope you are kidding :( The devs really shouldnt have priced it that high.. this is for a tier 3 mount and is a gianormous quest! The only guildies I have that have more then 8g are crafters. I have a lvl 41 shaman whom I stopped playing for awhile that was at 7g (Used it on symbols in tsangs for guildies). My rogue is now lvl 31 and has 3g 80s ;P Havnt bought my lvl 30 spells yet and I never spend money on gear. I don't own a house nor a boat. Hell I'm still riding my 12s 50c mount on this char and my 3g camel on my shaman. :/ Anyways.. If it is 10g I personaly think it should be changed. After this huge amount of effort I think that the max it should be is 7g. That's what tier 3 mounts go for right?

[Twoofus]

The level 30 horse costs 10g and is 40 stability / 60 run speed... better stats.

So....
For a long quest + 10g you get a mount with worse stats then the one you can buy for the same amount from a vendor. Which is also RESELLABLE, so effectively costing you only around 1 gold.

I guess it's only for those who REALLY want a unicorn :)

[Spottycat]

Since nobody has said this yet, I will.

The unicorn mount is supposed to be the level 20 mount.
That means the horse equivalent is only 50speed, 30stab.
The unicorn has 10 higher speed for a Level 20 mount.

My issue is that the barding for this mount costs 10g. It should not cost much more than the level 20 horse costs.... and it does, which is a serious issue with this quest line.

Having the shadowhound cost 10g makes sense, since it is a level 30 mount.
Hopefully Sigil will identify and fix this issue.

[rhagz]

Can you use the unicorn at 20, or is it 30?

Can the quest be reasonably completed by a level 20, or even a group of 20's?

[Dakirn]

If you have a few weeks, which by time you're high 20's, maybe.

[zenharmony]

I think you're basically spending time (5-10+ hours it sounds like) to get uniqueness (unicorn/shadowhound).

Similarly for a T4 horse you can spend money (extra 50g ) to get uniqueness (pure white/black horse instead of a the usual colors).

There's no one forcing you to do these quests, and you do them only for the novelty of having something cool to look at.

That being said, it would have been nice if the requisite 10g was presented in a more up-front fashion so as the prevent people who didn't want to spend that from starting the quest in the first place.

I've completed the Unicorn quest and you are incorrect about stats. It is a level 30 Mount, has 60 speed and 30 stability, it is Rank 3, just as the shadowhound is.

BTW this took my friend and I, about 16 hours and we were first on our server to get them (You have 6 choices on colors of saddles).

I'm at the Thestra part of the quest and have a problem with the quest "Worst of the Interposers". I have to kill 47 Ashendreg at ruins and 23 at Thwartercamp. I'm ready with the second part but can't get any kill update at the ruins. Have tried it with mobs inside and outside the ruins and also with mobs at the small camp near the ruins - still no updates.
So what's the trick?

I also am at this part in the quest. I had the same thing happen at the ruins.

It did update 23 at the Thwarter camp.

You must go INSIDE the ruins to get updates for kill 45 Ashendregs at the Ruins. The compass marker is invalid.

[Mardy]

The trick is you need to kill the ones that are lvl 26+, anything 25 and below won't work. And yes you need to be inside the ruins.

[Adwaup]

I have yet to do this quest yet but one thing I have noticed while leveling my druid , when it comes to quest kills and getting credit if I am standing too far away from a mob when it dies I don't get credit for the kill . The range seems to vary but more than 25m rarely gives me credit even when I know I killed it with a DD not a DoT , and if I need a quest drop I better not be more than 20m or for whatever reason I don't get drops when at max range.
