Legend
Deep under the Sea, a Fire Feathered Serpent sleeps, but its Guardian needs help protecting their realm.
Location
Dangers
Devourer, Blood Beast, Rot Elemental, Glooth Glob, all types of Quaras, Abyssal Calamary, Blood Crab, Shark, Young Sea Serpent, Sea Serpent and Seacrest Serpent.
Reward
Chance to complete the Twenty Miles Beneath the Sea Quest and get the achievements Mind the Step! and Snake Charmer, ability to fight Renegade Quaras.
This world change is related to the Twenty Miles Beneath the Sea Quest. One distinctive characteristic of it is that its change of states occur immediately after being triggered, and not after the next Server Save as with most World Changes.
Method[]
The Seacrest Grounds can have two states, which are a reflection of the situation of the Fire-Feathered Serpent. Usually, the serpent is asleep and you will find regular Quaras, Sea Serpents and Seacrest Serpents in the Seacrest Grounds. During this stage, Guide NPCs will inform the following state:
|
Player: Sea Serpent |
|||
Once 1000 Seacrest Serpents are killed across the World, the World Change will not be triggered yet, but there will be a server-broadcast that the Serpent is being awakened:
Sleeping beneath the Oramond sea, the Fire-Feathered Serpent twitches and dreams of calling its children back.
If the Quara raid on Western Oramond is currently running, it will immediately stop and all Quaras will disappear from the surface. The Guide NPCs will also give a different answer:
|
Player: Sea Serpent |
|||
As soon as an additional 1000 Seacrest Serpents (i.e. a total of 2000 Seacrest Serpents) are killed, the World Change will be activated, and the regular Quaras, the Sea Serpents and the Seacrest Serpents will be replaced by Renegade Quaras. The following message will be broadcast to all players:
The Fire-Feathered Serpent has awoken! Renegade Quara attack the sunken lands of Oramond!
|
Player: Sea Serpent |
|||
When this happens, the The Fire-Feathered Sea Serpent mission of the quest will become available. If you want to complete this mission or fight the Renegade Quara, you should hurry to the Seacrest Grounds as it usually doesn't last very long.
Once the mission is done and 2000 Renegade Quaras are killed, the Fire-Feathered Serpent will go back to sleep, and the world change will return to its default stage.
The Fire-Feathered Serpent goes back to sleep, beseeched by the blood of the Renegade Quara.
