Taskmaster Furion Expands the HuntRanks, daily hunts, weekly realm-wide hunts, and 25 new tasks • Posted by the Gamemasters
Taskmaster Furion has been quiet lately, but not idle. He has taken measure of the realm, judged the worth of the hunters standing before him, and decided that the ladder must go higher. Much higher. What follows is a full overhaul of the task system. Everything you have already earned stays exactly as it is — but from today, Furion has considerably more to offer. Four Ranks of HunterEvery completed hunt earns you hunting points, and every point earned counts toward your standing with Furion. As you accumulate points, you rise through his ranks — and each new rank unlocks harder tasks, better rewards, and access to gear the lower ranks may never touch.
Say rank or status to Furion to see your current standing and points-to-spend at any time. Ranks are already recognised for existing hunters — if you have the points, you have the rank. Twenty-Five New HuntsFurion has added a substantial roster of new tasks. Your original hunts remain unchanged, but they are now the entry rung on a longer ladder. At the Ranger tier, hunters find themselves stalking Behemoths and Serpent Spawns, Warlocks and Wild Sun Priestesses, ordinary Elementals in their planes, Hydras returned to their proper level, and the dragon lords whose hatchling versions used to be enough. Frost Dragons have been re-recognised as Ranger-worthy prey. The realm's first look at the elite hunts. At the Marauder tier, the true endgame regulars: Undead Dragons, Elder Wyrms, Medusas and Nightmares, Grim Reapers and Plaguesmiths, Dark Torturers, the newly-arrived Greater Fire Elementals in their volcanic den, and the Weres roaming the wild woods. This is the tier where "prepare properly or die" becomes literal advice. At the top tier — Elythia's Hunter — lie the trials only the mightiest may attempt: Ghastly Dragons finally recognised for what they are, along with Furies, Destroyers, and Juggernauts. Advanced hunts on Grim Reapers and Undead Dragons that demand hundreds of kills, not dozens. Feversleeps in the sleeping deep. The Elite Massive Elementals. And finally, at the pinnacle, hunts against Demons themselves. New Creature — Greater Fire Elemental
A new arrival to the realm, dwelling somewhere in the deep volcanic reaches. Larger and more dangerous than its ordinary kin but not quite the Massive Fire Elemental's equal, the Greater Fire Elemental is a true Marauder-tier challenge. Ice weapons carve it well. Fire only makes it stronger. Watch for the fire wave — it does not miss. Daily and Weekly HuntsBeyond the fixed tasks, Furion now offers hunts that renew. Say daily and Furion will assign you one random hunt from within your unlocked ranks — a smaller, half-length version of a task with a modest reward waiting on the other side. A daily can be attempted once every twenty hours. Higher ranks draw from a bigger pool, so your daily is different from the next hunter's. Say weekly and Furion will tell you what the whole realm is hunting this week. The weekly is a Ranger-tier task shared by every hunter on Elythia. It requires five hundred kills across the realm to complete — a team effort. Anyone who contributed even a single kill can claim a share of the reward when it falls, and the hunt resets every Sunday. Watch the broadcasts. The Quartermaster's WaresFurion has expanded his shop to match the new ranks. Say shop or trade to see what he'll sell you at your current standing.
