• Forgotten Island has been introduced. You must be Level 45+ to visit. Tickets cost 10,000 adena, and you may not bring dogs.
• You cannot use any teleport scrolls on the island.
• Everywhere is a combat area.
• All monsters are approximately 15 levels higher than their mainland counterparts.
• Even if you die, restarting while on the Island will put you at the starting beach of the island. The only way off is through a teleport NPC.
• There will be an NPC in the northern part of the island which will sell potions for approximately double the normal price.
• Drops from the island will include sealed weapons, sealed armors and the unseal scroll. You must take a sealed item and an unseal scroll to the Detector NPC in the Ivory Tower in order to unseal the item.

  • Weapon Break = -600 lawful
  • Curse: Paralyze = -2000 lawful
  • Darkness = -800 lawful
