East Perennial Trail

East Perennial Trail is a trial in Novia east of Ardoris.

This area is generally pretty safe for a beginning character. Most of the creatures and baddies are spaced out enough you can fight them one on one. It's a great area to gather both wood and cotton. It's generally circular in nature so just keep traveling around in one direction to hit the resources as they spawn. There is one cluster of Oysters by the little shack with the two corpses outside of it and you can get Black Pearl there. I've found spawn points for Iron and Copper ore. For the Ore, just keep searching around the grayish boulders/rock formations. The Ore will appear around the lower outside edges as either a brownish (Iron) or brownish/orange (Copper) clump on the rock.

In the NW corner of the map you will find a Shack / Little House. If you are on Bentley's Quest, from the Inn of Soltown, you will find a Key on the table that he is looking for. Some of the Skeletons drop an Iron Blade for Geof's quest as well.
