Highvale Outskirts

is an Adventuring Area.
 * When their home was overrun by Obsidian Elves, Highvale Village survivors fled toward the safety of Resolute. When they reached an abandoned monastery high in the nearby mountains, their escape seems to be blocked on one side by violent Elves sweeping the area for more humans to slaughter, and on the other side by Kobolds fiercely defending their mining camp. However, something more sinister is afoot upon further investigation within the monastery and below in the lower lands – something ancient and frigid.

Tips

 * The Outskirts scenes have many areas to jump and fall as you explore the scene. It is recommended you train the Safe Fall skill within the Subterfuge Kill Tree. To learn this skill, you will first need to train the Train Dexterity Subterfuge Skill to level 40. You then can speak to any Skills Trainer and now learn the skill Safe Fall. While this skill is set to training, each time you fall, will level up this skill, and take less damage.

Trivia

 * Highvale Outskirts: During the Spring Telethon 2017, we announced the game will include three new “Outskirts” maps to help improve the New User Experience. Solace Bridge Outskirts (on the Path of Love) and Blood River Outskirts (on the Path of Truth), already in the game, are now joined by the final Outskirts map: Highvale Outskirts, on the Path of Courage. After finishing a starter scene, new players will be sent to the nearest Outskirts map. Bigger in scope and with more adventuring and service opportunities than most other scenes, new players will be able to base themselves in a single Outskirts scene for their first couple of hours of gameplay without needing to also go through multiple loading screens. When their home was overrun by Obsidian Elves, Highvale Village survivors fled toward the safety of Resolute. When they reached an abandoned monastery high in the nearby mountains, their escape seems to be blocked on one side by violent Elves sweeping the area for more humans to slaughter, and on the other side by Kobolds fiercely defending their mining camp. However, something more sinister is afoot upon further investigation within the monastery and below in the lower lands – something ancient and frigid. Players entering the Highvale Outskirts will assist the soldiers and refugees in the monastery, while pursuing numerous quests and side quests. The monastery includes crafting stations, merchants, and trainers. Elsewhere can be found Obsidian elf camps, a hunter’s cabin on an alpine lake, an abandoned farm, and other captivating landmarks. Note that this is only the first pass on this scene and it will be getting another major iteration in Release 47.
