Yellow

I started collecting blue eggs to get a bunch of yellow dye to give my Dragon Knight in Drakensang-Online a new look. You need 20 eggs to get one vial of yellow dye so, as you can imagine, I was running around all over the place collecting eggs.

After several runs, I managed to dye all my visible items. I would've finished earlier but I had to ditch my helmet already dyed yellow when an Extraordinary one showed up more suited to my level (had to go on another egg run).

And voila! The glitter's fairy dust, by the way (click here for my Fairy Summoning Wand article).

No relation (aside from the title)...

Got a FAIRY at last!

I finally got the final ingredient for the Fairy Summoning Wand from the daily login bonus earlier! I was thinking that:

1. I was finally going to be able to free up some much needed space from my inventory.
2. I was finally going to find out what the Fairy does.

Once you get all four ingredients (the diamond, the hair, the wand, and the pollen) you're supposed  to combine them all together and so off I went to the Work Bench to craft myself a Fairy Summoning Wand.

It's easy enough to do. Just put all the ingredients in the slots, click on the "combine items" button, and you got yourself a Fairy Summoning Wand.

Finally, I found out what it does:

And true enough, I was zipping around faster than usual with a trail of fairy dust behind me.

It's actually kinda cool. The only downside is that you can't use it at the same time as your Dragon Pet.

UPDATE: I can only feel the extra 25% traveling speed whenever I'm inside an urban area but it seems to me that I still run at more or less the same pace outside, pre-Fairy Summoning Wand. Must be a bug or something.

I finally SAW someone with a FAIRY

Saw someone the other day with a tiny fairy him around (I was farming in Slifmoor at the time when I saw them). I'm just one item away myself, from crafting a fairy-summoning wand.

Speaking of which, I wonder if it will be possible to summon a fairy and your Dragon Pet at the same time? I guess I'll just have to try it out once I acquire the fairy wand.

Release 046

New skills, baby! Everybody gets new skills!

The Skills Renaissance is still going strong with two brand new skills available for each archetype (some skills are only available when a certain Level is reached) in Drakensang-Online.

Wolf Pack.

• The Dragon Knight receives ‘Rage Jump’ in Level 22 and ‘Smash’ in Level 26
• The Spellweaver receives ‘Singularity’ in Level 22 and ‘Watchman’ in Level 35
• The Ranger receives ‘Scatter Shot’ in Level 22 and ‘Wolf Pack’ in Level 35.
• There are two new quests in Hognis Mine for level 27 heroes and above (see Eida for the quest ‘lights that no longer shine’ but beware…these quests are not for the weak willed)
• In addition, there is a confirmation prompt before you leave a guild

For those who likes fairies, you can now make one of your own!

"You may have been wondering what the special items from the Daily Login Bonus are good for. After you have collected the flawless diamond, pollen from everlasting fairy lilies, the gnarled branch from ancient oaks and the ordinary lock of hair from a fair maiden, you can create a fairy in the workbench, who will accompany you on your quests."
