- Will the attackable and pickpocketable elves be receiving talk options in the future?

- Will we discover more about Eluned's past?

- Can we have a crystal penguin to hunt in Prifddinas? Pretty please?

Here's a compilation of my questions:

1) Why was the Thieving level required to pickpocket Iorwerth elves raised from 86 (as stated in Design Document 2) to 91?

2) Can the left-click of the crystal teleport seed please be changed to take players to the tower of voices ground floor? It used to have a left-click teleport to Lletya, but now it has an annoying interface when left-clicked.

3) Can you please add the lunar spellbook to the spellbook-switching grimoire?

4) Would you be willing to consider making pickpocketable elves more visually distinct from attackable elves? Perhaps the latter could wear their respective clan capes?

5) Can you please make spirit seeds obtainable within Prifddinas? It is currently quite difficult to unlock the Prifddinas spirit tree due to the rarity of spirit seeds.

6) Can the GE clerks and banker please be more distinct, like the ones in the Grand Exchange (i.e. grey and blue, as opposed to the green and green of the Prifddinas ones).

the 91 thieving spot gives way too many sharks and forces me to bank 1-2 sometimes even 3 times before i finally get caught 3 times, could you make the rate of getting sharks a bit lower on the 91 thieving guys?


The aim of the new pickpocketing mechanic was to make it less click intensive and not to create a 'AFK' training method, so having your inventory fill up helps with that.

However, we are reviewing the drop tables.

1, Will elf quests at least up to Within the Light be marked as 5th Age? It makes sense as they are required for WGS , a 5th Age marked quest.

2, Did Mor(v)ran lost his left eye in the battle with Tyras's army and Iorwerths?

3, Can we tell Endw(y)r the emissary that we saw her god (well a piece of hers)?


1. 5th Age marking is something I would like to do, but it's not being worked on yet. My focus for it would be quests that narratively lead up to 6th Age content, not mechanical requirements.

2. That sounds a good theory!

3. We haven't done much 'post-city' dialogue, talking to people outside the city about our experiences in the city. It's on the list for large batch of elf changes, but it's dependent on time.

1) I've answered this better in the Release FAQ which should be going out either today or early next week, but the short answer is because during development it made sense to put the new elf pick-pocketing at a higher level. Look out for the FAQ.

2) The crystal teleport seed is intended for use in getting around the clan areas, and other locations outside of Prif. The Tower of Voices is already well-served with the lodestone.

How many easter eggs are there that we are yet to find in batch 1?


We'll let you know when they've all been found. If some aren't close to being found, we'll (eventually) give hints. They're not really easter eggs if we just tell you what and where they are days after launch - they're there to be discovered.

What was the idea behind having 8 dark beast task as a comp req? seems bit random to me


It was one for each clan, sort of like a nod to Clan Iorwerth once more protecting all eight clans (rather than being in a war against the others).

The combat elves differ slightly with the wielded weapons (and farming elves have tools!).

It's not a bad idea though, I'll raise this with the graphics guys.
