Toxxulia Forest

From EQArchives
Jump to navigationJump to search

Toxxulia Forest is a dark, quiet forest that encompasses much of the island continent of Odus. It is separated into two areas by a river running roughly east to west through it, the northern half more inhabited and the southern half controlled by the kobolds and the necromancers.

The design of the Toxxulia Forest teleportation spires are later copied throughout Norrath as the moon of Luclin is explored. The armies of Paineel used these teleportation spires to transport many Kerrans to the moon of Luclin, where they were forced to resettle.

Dangers

This island is the newbie area for the Erudites, and much of the northern half of the zone consists of creatures second level or less running around. The southern half is a little more dangerous, with the most dangerous being the fact that it's easy to get lost here and aggressive skeletons and kobolds roam the zone. It is considered unwise to venture below the bridge unless you are at least 4th level or higher. Good-aligned Erudites should be aware of Talrigar Eklorin who patrols in the southern half of the zone.

Once Paineel opens, its newbie citizens below 4th level should gain experience in the Paineel "yard" before venturing outside the confines of the city into Toxxulia Forest.

Benefits

This is generally a pretty quiet and safe zone. There are not so many creatures in the newbie area that you can get killed easily by wandering monsters. On the other side of the bridge, although there are dangers, it is generally pretty safe. The water acts as sort of a barrier for monsters in the zone, in that the tougher monsters generally appear south of the water, but this isn't always the case, and it's important to stay on your toes north of the bridge.

The other benefit is the kobolds in the camps. They are generally pretty safe to camp out and there are rarely anyone else by them. A mage with a 4th level pet could take one on if they were careful, or a two person group, and they provide good mid-range exp. Be wary of wandering skeletons and kobolds. Talrigar Eklorin is an extreamly high level Necromancer who has a tendency to patrol to the northern Kobold camp.

Traveling To and From

At the northern edge of the zone lies the entrance to the city of Erudin, home of the followers of Erud. Passing underneath the "patio" will take you to the city beyond. Within lies the docks from which you can reach the ferry to Erud's Crossing and South Qeynos.

Swimming west across the water, straight out from the dock on the west coast, will take you to the shores of Kerra Island, which is the home of the Kerrans. The channel is only guarded by the occasional piranha.

To the south lies another "patio" that will eventually lead to the Heretic city of Paineel...
