New Quest: Telescopic Troubles
March 29th, 2020 by Mars Bracken
Greetings Legends! We’re excited to announce a new quest, another in the Angel Havens RP area.
The Angel Orion, Steward of the Observatory, uses his enchanted telescopes to find and help people in need around the Angel Havens. He could use an extra hand with some of the more challenging adventures, and the citizens you help will be grateful!
The quest rewards are listed on the flyer. This quest starts with Orion on Bloodlines North.
*UPDATE 3/31/20:
We had some players reporting issues with getting the Glow Bulb Seedlings to appear out of the ground. At first we thought this was due to the mesh not appearing correctly. We uploaded new higher resolution Seedlings, as well as recommended upping LOD settings to 2.5 on your viewer.
While we always recommend seeing SL as beautifully as your machine can handle, we think we tracked down the actual source of the complaints:
Apparently there was a misunderstanding that the Bulbs were to be found near the bases of the full-sized Glow Bulb Trees. While a few of them are in this area, the rest of the Seedlings are spread out around a much wider area. See the below image to see the zone to look for the Seedlings in:
Also, we had some tickets stating that the last tree, Horvac, was not responding to wand waves. We believe we’ve tracked this complaint down to a misunderstanding about how the wand waves work. Just in case you are not aware, there are 3 strengths of wave – Weak, Medium, and Strong. These can be chosen from a blue menu after touching the Wand itself, or (easier) they can be triggered by touching various spots on the wand icon on the Legends HUD.
Below is a graphic illustrating the 3 different types of wand waves. In addition, since we are starting to incorporate more Skill Checks in quests based on the various Wand attributes, included in this graphic is a reiteration of what parts of the wand are dictating the various attributes:
