What does this information mean?
Notes[]
The forest is dark and filled with hills that are difficult to climb over at times. A network of griffon towers eases travel between many parts of the zone. To use these towers, you must first complete a simple quest.
Nektulos Forest has a lower-level counterpart called Darklight Wood. This zone connection is located in the Valley of the Bears at the end of the southeast road.
Revamps[]
Nektulos Forest has seen several revamps since release. Here are the most noteworthy changes:
- Almost all heroic monsters were changed into soloable ^ monsters in Game Update 37. This has made almost all formerly heroic quests soloable.
- The zone was connected to Neriak, City of Hate (via Darklight Wood) in Game Update 35 in May 2007. The Thexian camps near Darklight Wood were reduced to level 20-22 to make the transition easier for Neriak characters.
- The zone was substantially revamped in Live Update 24 in June 2006. Most monsters moved to new locations, and new monsters were added. Some of the changes included:
- A new tunnel shortcut from the beach (near Gul'Thex Citadel) to Timber Falls.
- N'Mar's Ascent and the roads to the dock and Commonlands were made safer and guarded by neutral guards.
- many hilltops were opened up to player travel; some of them also had monsters added.
- new plants and features throughout the forest that don't like to be touched: rose of Innoruuk, hate blossom, spiteweed, soul leeches, and dead militia guards.
- some scattered quest NPCs were brought together at the Commonlands camp, and an additional solo quest line was added.
