So today I went exploring. I originally had started out by wanting to look for Walking Trees in Jugner Forest so I could get some mistletoe to finish a quest. After about an hour of farming, only have killed 3 trees (including Fraelissa), and not a single drop, I decided to check out Carpenter's Landing. I think I have been there all of twice.

Let me tell you, that place is so pretty! I happened upon the barge departing area and bought a multi-ticket and hopped on. Has anyone ever been in Phanauet Channel via the barge? I think it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to in Vanadiel.

I took some screenshots:

  • I think I rode about 6 barges. Traveled to the North Landing, and back. To Central Landing and back. To South Landing and back? (or is that where I started? o.O) Traveled to South Landing via Newtpool - which is the winding part of the canal.

    The NPC that rides along with you is a sweet old man that talks about his grandson that named the waterfall Ineuteniance Falls and asks is he not the luckiest grandfather around.

    I met 2 other players that joined me for a few trips: Oddone, a sweet Mithra drk and Nixon, a cute lil taru rdm.

    I love exploring too!

    I love the various manaclipper rides you can take in Bibiki Bay. And the ferry trips in the Al Zahbi areas also.

    I unlocked BLU on my own yrsterday, I think Bhaflau Thickets is lovely, and I like the music too.

    LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

    I am a complete "nub". When they were on the barge, since their name was "Oddone" (since you can only have one capital letter in your character name) I read (pronounced) it as "oh done" with a long "o" sound. Lmao.... duh me. I fail english.

    Wow, I had never realied that Carpenters landing -or- Phanauet Channel were so pretty. The screens look awesome, but for some reason, I still say that the most "pretty" or "beautiful" areas in the game have to be Misareux Coast or Lufaise Meadows...I just love those places for some reason, I dont know why. I wish that exping in Lufase Meadows wasnt limited to 72-75~ :/

    I don't have sky access yet. When I finally do, I will be spending oodles of time taking screen shots. Sometimes it just breaks up the "lather-rinse-repeat" of leveling. I like to zone into a new place and go "Oh wow." I've heard that Ru'Ann gardens is really lovely too.

    Good thing about it is you can see Lufaise after you do the 3 promies. Bad thing is you have to do the 3 promies.

    Ru'Aun Gardens are indeed pretty...for the first 19409209435 times you see it and do sky, then it gets boring/ugly :/
    Indeed, Misareaux Coast and Lufaise Meadows are Chains Of Promathia, not sky. You just have to go trough the first promys to get there....in a way, they are tough...in a way they are easy, depends on who you do them with. I also hear that sea > sky in prettyness <.>;

    You wanna see gorgeous? Go to The Temple of Uggalepih. The room right after the Temple Guardian (The room the Manipulator spawns in) is absolutely gorgeous. In a decaying, bygone-days sort of way.


    I'd post some pictures I have of it completely cleared of Tonberries et al, but I'm on my laptop, and not on my poor, dead PC. D:

    Word.

    I've done them on Mazurat but and finished 2 on Thatcrazytaru (0/15 Holla post boss nerf). Promy's are a painful experience.

    Done deals Anna!

    I'm gonna go as summoner as well. Well, after I get a few more levels on Thatcrazytaru, collect all the avatars (cept Diabolos) and level it to 30. If I set my mind to it I can probably do it in a week or two (but you know me, {Slacker +1} ) So 6 months would be a better estimate.
