rewards for flags

[Gothics]

u can either get xp or a charm, xp is 1aa per flag (when 100% to aa), and charm is class based and grows when u get more flags:<br><br>(copied):<br><br>This is from the Steel warrior message board<br>Some rangers on test have reported what the reward is, albeit unverified. Anyway according to the patch message there is such a NPC who you are now meant to hail, so at least that part is true. I cant bring myself to believe the rest till i log in later today, but if there is any truth to it, well, hot damn!<br><br>Theres a new mob in a building near the Soulbinder named Gram Dunnar.<br><br>Hail him. He will give 2 []'ed words. <br>The First one gets you a Charm that has stats specific to your class and the number of POP zones you have access to (not fixed on what flags you had BEFORE you got the charm, it will ramp up when you get more POP zone flags)<br><br>The second key word you have to say 'I will tell stories'.<br><br>****If you have XP going 100% into AA points.... ****<br><br>Each time you say this, you will get >> *1* AA point <<<br>Say it multiple times. You will get 1 aa point for each flag you have.<br><br>Before the changes I was flagged for:<br>Storms/Valor<br>BoThunder<br>PoTorment<br><br>I had 3 flags, and i had 100% of my XP going into AA points. I said it 3 times and got 1 full aa point each time for a total of 3 aa points. When I said it again, he did not give me an AA point, he just said 'I've heard that story before' or something like that.<br><br>This is an XP GAIN, not a flat out AA point gain. If you have 100% XP going into AA, then you will gain exactly *1* aa point. If you have all/some XP going into regular leveling, it will split appropriately. Your mileage will vary.<br><br>Also, apparently, each time you get flagged for a new zone, you can Hail this guy and say the keyword and get another AA point worth of XP. This is *UNCONFIRMED*! (I may be wrong)<br><br>Now, the Charm...<br><br>This charm ramps up depending on how many PoP zones you are flagged for.<br><br>If you have no flags, the charm will have no stats.<br><br>My charm was this:<br><br>Intricate Wooden Figurine<br>Slot: Charm<br>AC 5<br>Dex 4<br>Wis 3<br>Agi 4<br>HP 27<br>Mana 24<br>ALL RESISTS 3<br>Wt 0.1<br>Class: RNG (Its dependant on your class, Rogues charms wont have Mana and have different ammounts etc)<br><br>I asked an elemental flagged ranger (Thank you, Cloudwraite) what his stats were (He had all flags except Time):<br><br>AC 15<br>Dex 13<br>Sta 9<br>Wis 9<br>Agi 13<br>HP 81<br>Mana 72<br>ALL RESISTS 9<br><br>Im going to take a wild stab at *ALL 10 FLAGS*<br>(This is just a guess, since there are no Time flagged people on Test)<br>AC 16 (1.6 per flag)<br>Dex 15 (1.5 per flag)<br>Sta 10 (1 per flag)<br>Wis 10 (1 per flag)<br>Agi 15 (1.5 per flag)<br>HP 90 (9 per flag)<br>Mana 80 (8 per flag)<br>ALL RESISTS 10 (1 per flag) <p><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.magelo.com/eq_view_profile.html?num=561565" target="top"><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Baron Victorious Nosferatu, 63 Warlock</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> </p><i></i>

Looks interesting.. I'll be taking the charm... even a small shit item is better than no item, and AA comes easily enough <p><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.magelo.com/eq_view_profile.html?num=90771" target="top">Thoraf</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></p><i></i>

Ok, to clear up any confusion, you get BOTH a Charm and AA as a reward.<br><br>Why did they take the reward NPC (Gram Dunnar, Male Dwarf in PoK in the building South East of the Soulbinder) out of this patch? I was on Test when it happened, here's the reason:<!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>[Wed Jun 11 18:36:28 2003] ** The mythical "new inhabitant" of Plane of Knowledge has been temporarily disabled due to a bug found at the last minute.

They plan to have him back on Test tomorrow, and on Live servers the day after, all going well.<br><br>The Charm you get is called "Intricate Wooden Figurine". There is one for each Class, and it is tuned to the needs of that Class. It's Item Information: "Increases in power as you gain access to more Planes." Anyone of any level can obtain the charm from the NPC by saying the appropriate phrase, but it has a Required Level of 51 to equip it. Without any PoP flags, it will most likely have no starting stats, but they're quite a nice item the more flags you get. No confirmation as to whether they work for key quests or just flags, though word is it's for both.<br><br>As for the XP, you say another phrase to the NPC, and if there is an unrewarded flag/key on your character, he will grant you XP. If you have AA set to 100% XP, it will be one 1 AA point. If you have it set to Level XP, or as a split, it will be 1 AA's worth of XP. This is significant, as it does not simply reward you straight up into your AA bar, you can choose where the XP goes.<br><br>Now, the NPC text...<br><br>(If you are too low in level, assumed 46)<br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>You say, 'Hail, Gram Dunnar'</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br>The old dwarf glances at you briefly, then returns his attention to a small wooden object he is carving.

I have a bad feeling about this ... untested of course ...<br><br>but FLAGS does not indicate zone access ...<br>so no charm bonus nor AAXP for PoTactics via Diaku, only if you kill behemoth ...<br><br>so <br>PoTorment = Kill Terris Thule (and/or Kill Bertoxxolous)<br>CoD = Kill Grummus (not side-quest)<br>PoTactics = Kill Behemoth (not side-quest)<br>PoV/S = Trial of Justice<br>HoH = Kill Aerin'Dar<br>BoT = Askr Quest<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Arc, it's reported by players to be "zone access". This means flags or key quests.
