HishahmaHishahma
(Way of the Devout, Aht Urhgan Whitegate) (K-8)

Journey to the lands where dangerous monsters reside and investigate their weak points. According to previous research, each type of monster should possess two weak points.

  • Hishahma is gathering information to use in vanquishing the beastman hordes. He needs you to investigate the enemies' weaknesses.
  • He will ask you to choose between:
  • In order to observe the monsters' weaknessess, try to ascertain if their weak point is:
    • A certain weaponskill.
    • A weaponskill from a certain angle.
    • A certain element. (unsure if its same everytime elemental weakness everytime, but guessing since Troll was weak to Fire that Lamia<<Ice and Mamool<<Wind)
    • A certain sound. (Lamiae)
    • A certain irritant. (Mamool Ja)
    • A certain scent. (Troll)
      • NOTE: When you fight Troll Speculator, a (Peculiar Seed) pops in the area. Click it to get one of three scents (sour, rotten fish, or rotten food). The seed repops and repeats the cycle of scents after being clicked more than once. I don't know how they are weak to it though, maybe intimidation factor or something.
    • Their low strength. (Lamiae)
    • Their sluggish movement. (Troll)
      • They will be perma-gravity'd, this is the easiest one to spot. If you don't know how fast trolls normally move, pull one from Halvung and zone it.
    • Landing after a fall. (Mamool Ja)
  • Each NM will have two weaknesses, and they are random each time, so there is no one correct answer. You will just have to observe their behavior and recation to your attacks.
  • Hishahma will ask you for both weaknesses.
  • Next, using your information, he will send out a special force to attempt to decimate the enemy.
  • You must wait 1 real life day (japanese midnight) before returning to talk to Hishahma.
  • If you didn't get any of the weaknesses correctly, Hishahma will be furious because his unit will be decimated. Next, he will report your failure to Salaheem's Sentinels; I take this to mean that your Imperial Standing will be greatly reduced because afterward he mentions how much longer it's going to take you to reach Private First Class, Superior Private,or Lance Corporal. So, be careful.
  • If you got one of the two weaknesses correctly, he will lecture you that "faulty information can be disastrous on the battlefield" and simply reward you with ~150 IS points.
  • If you get both correcly, he will reward you with IS points and an ??? item which you will need to have appraised.
  • This quest can be repeated once every tally.

Mamool

  • To get to the Mamool Ja, exit from Al Zabhi into Wajaom Woodlands and head to (F-13).
  • Enter Mamook. Use invisible and sneak and head toward (L-10) where you will zone back out into Wajaom Woodlands and find the previously inaccessible ???.

Troll

  • Al Zabhi >> Bhaflau Thickets (F-8) >> Halvung (J-7) >> Mount Zhayolm (L-6)
  • NM is Troll PUP.
  • BST SOLO STRAT ~ use the 2 Magmatic Eruca to the North as pets. Buff, pop, Fight pet on PUP, and run to the North. Leave at low HP, his puppet will probably be out by now. Charm the other crawler fight the troll again and kite the puppet which should be on you. Wash, rinse, repeat with pets in area till dead. Be sure to watch when you pet Incenirates, if it does like 600+ some damage, you know one of the weaknesses. Also if troll sort of slow, you know a weakness is sluggish movement. This strat makes you able to get AT LEAST 1 weakness everytime. Trying to mod it so you can get both easy. Maybe if you build TP on mobs before hand you can test a ws or two. Unsure, Im sure there is an easy way though.
Reward: Prerequisities: Must be a Mercenary (ToAU M1-2)
