Treasure Hunt on Spitfire

[Askip]

Did anyone get something nice for their digging?

I found a small brawler:

a ruby inlaid blackjack

1x with some kind of elemental crits (shrill, piercing note from the AI crystal)

It was not worth to price - cost me 60 shovels @ 2k per, but I'm going to keep digging.

:D

[Galleazzo]

The weapons you get are all 1x with e-crits. I also got a couple nice altered jewels.

[ZGemstone]

I found a vultite sap (brawler). I think the exact description is a pearl-hilted vultite sap, but I'd have to log on to look.

I've heard rumors that some decent armor has been pulled out of there. Anyone seen that?

[Parkbandit]

I found some imflass dagger... haven't had it assessed or sung to yet though.

I too will be digging for more.

[Tophal]

I found a skull. When you examine it, it shows something like, 'Written in Common language are inscribed the words Dead De'nar tell no tells'.

Are the pins worth anything? I have about 40 of them. Also, does anyone know what the gems are worth, or if they have any special properties?

-Toph

[IcyPoison]

Pins are worth 33 silver at the pawnshop.

[Askip]

Another find - 1x fulls:

a tooled set of midnight black leathers

You touch the crystal with one hand, your midnight black leathers in the other hand. Tiny sparks of brilliant golden light dance across your leathers. A red beam shoots up from your leathers toward the
ceiling. A shrill, piercing note sounds, echoing through the room.

Why they give a shrill, piercing note is beyond me - the guide I read says "enchanted by a wizard", unless all armor with an enchant do that.

[Gene Gene Pork and Bean]

i found a couple things...

a dented steel-riveted breastplate

and

an elaborate studded mithril dirk

and a whole buncha other just not worth noting. i dont know if the dirk flares but i do know it is 1x.
and all i know about the breastplate is it too is 1x.

[Askip]

A million silver later...

so far the best I've found are a +12 weapon and +10 armor, not all of the weapons have crits:

an exquisite studded mithril cutlass

You touch the crystal with one hand, your studded mithril cutlass in the other hand. Tiny sparks of brilliant golden light dance across your cutlass. A red beam shoots up from your cutlass toward the ceiling. A shrill, piercing note sounds, echoing through the room.

:D

[Tophal]

Askip, I hope you are digging that sand while hasted. A million silver buys a lot of shovels.

-Toph

[GSLeloo]

I got the same skull someone else said, altered gems, pins and a ruby studded mithril hook-knife

[Bobmuhthol]

I only got a bunch of pins, 2k, and a cutlass shaped diamond. But I only spent like 6k.

[Vesi]

I haven't been able to tour the Spitfire yet like I want to. Is the treasure hunt a one time thing or is it a shop or area that you can dig anytime you wish?

Vesi wanting to get her hands dirty

[GSLeloo]

Dig anytime you want.

[DaMaGe]

Where's it at?

Thanks Leloo!

[DaMaGe]

Nevermind, I found it.


-Adam

[Edaarin]

I wound up giving away all the crap I found. Bunch of gem inlaid mithril weapons, a 3x fire flaring ruby inlaid cutlass, and a 1x fire cutlass. 600k well spent. Askip's worse than me when it comes to knowing when to quit.

[Bobmuhthol]

40k later...

a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, an exquisite studded mithril cudgel, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin, a coconut shaped sapphire, a treasure chest shaped topaz, a coconut shaped topaz, a ballista shaped topaz, a steel treasure chest pin, a steel treasure chest pin and a cutlass shaped diamond.

[Askip]

<< Askip's worse than me when it comes to knowing when to quit. >>

"There's no quitting in Treasure Hunt!". :D

Actually, it's like a poor-man's unlimited ticket raffle, 2k for a shot at a 5x or 6x item. I was just doing it for kicks to test my luck, I doubt there is anything there that I do not already have in a higher enchant.

[Artha]

6k later...

a ballista shaped emerald, a gold studded mithril belaying pin, a bottle shaped emerald, an ornate studded mithril belaying pin.

[Bobmuhthol]

Belaying pins = Awesome.

[Zir]

It also means to secure something or tie it down.

[Bobmuhthol]

A belaying pin is a rapier. What does belay mean? I don't know or care.

[Fallen]

I thought it was a thrown weapon. I know the Krol Corsiars and Slavers chuck them at you on the ship in RR.

I suppose they could be throwing a rapier at you..

[Zir]

I dont think a belaying pin would make a very good rapier. It would be more like a cudgel.

[Bobmuhthol]

1. It's a rapier.
2. I don't care what you think.
3. I had one like a year ago.

[Sirinna]

Hmm did anyone actually find anything really decent from these Treasure Hunt?

I have not even found the treasure hunt yet.

A belaying pin is a frigging cudgel.

And yeah, I got some things at the Treasure hunt. A flared weapon and a couple of those neat jewels. I didn't spend too much.

[Shalla]

I have never gotten so much hideous pins ever until I got addicted digging that treasure sand box. But I still hold a record of losing 9.3 mill from dragonbones in the past. I gained 40k this spitfire though :smilegrin:

[Bobmuhthol]

<<A belaying pin is a frigging cudgel.>>

Well then mine was special, cause I had a 176 AS with it in GSIII with edged weapon training.

Ummm...

belaying pin

SYLLABICATION: be·lay·ing pin
PRONUNCIATION: b-lng
NOUN: Nautical A short, removable wooden or metal pin fitted in a hole in the rail of a boat and used for securing running gear.

If I remember correctly, there is also a device used in mountain climbing (to control the run of the safety rope) that is called a "belaying pin".

HarmNone It's not really a pin, though, more like... well... imagine a metal slug, then carve two holes, leaving a slat in between. I don't really have a good way of describing it. But it's fun, mountain climbing. Unless you're afraid of heights. Then, not so much.

[Galleazzo]

Man, if you climb mountains for fun, you must be some serious stud.

[DianaBanana]

Where is the treasure hunt at? I've walked all over the place and I must be missing it...

[Bobmuhthol]

From gangplank:

South, east, down, north, down, north, go hatch.

Give the halfling 2000 coins when you find him, dig sand.

[DianaBanana]

Thanks again!
