Spindelskog

Island:	Slangeholle
Continent:	Mistrendur
Release:	Episode 2

Spindelskog is an adventure zone on the Northern end of Slangeholle (the western island in the continent of Mistrendur).

Episode 2 access is required to visit this zone.

The difficulties available for Spindelskog are as follows:

The higher the tier of the zone, the higher the level of most of the creatures in the zone (i.e. the creatures are more powerful, have more health, and are harder to defeat, but they also award greater Experience Points). The Experience Points for gathering Resource Nodes is the same across all difficulty levels of this zone.

To get to Spindelskog (Hard), enter Spindelskog (Normal) from the overworld, then run to the "Ancient Platform" point-of-interest on the South end of the zone, and walk into the swirling blue teleporter.

Once you are in the hard version of the zone, you can get to Spindelskog (Extreme) by running to the "Ancient Platform" point-of-interest in the Northeast end of the zone and walking into the swirling teleporter.

You can go to the less difficult zones by going through the teleporters in the reverse order.

Each zone difficulty has an exit to the overworld in the West side of the zone.

Lore[edit]

“Amidst the fetid swamps of the Northwest of Mistrendur hides Spindelskog, a rotting and decrepit old-growth forest. Swathed in ancient webs and choked with detritus and weeds, this forest can go without sunlight for months at a time. Within this foreboding darkness, the summer growth falls into decay and the webs and shadows creep across the woods. It is home to creepies and crawlies, huge predators and mysterious creatures of shadow.”

Trivia[edit]

This scene was designed with List Rostov at the helm! For those familiar with the Mistrendur Land Rush, this location has been indicated for some time as Adventure Scene 1.

Release Notes Description[edit]

This description of Spindelskog is from release 79 notes:^[1]

Spindelskog is located far to the northwest of the continent on the westernmost island. Hidden within the tangle of an ancient forest, this adventure scene contains dangers never before faced by the Avatars of New Britannia! Shadowy beasts lurk within, such as the Onus and Feram Cavas! These vile creatures posses terrifying abilities sure to thwart any trespasser!

Skarde, a brave traveler from Tanglemire stands just within Spindelskog’s default entrance of the Normal scene only, and awaits the arrival of any Avatar brave enough to test their mettle beneath the sun deprived canopy of this accursed wood. He speaks of the “pale ones” and warns newcomers of the curse which plagues this blighted land. Spindelskog definitely brings “spooky forest” to mind. Only players with Episode 2 Access will be able to adventure within this new scene. Will you aid Skarde upon your visit to Spindelskog? If so, bring your companions, oh brave ones! The dangers here are not to be taken lightly.
