The adventurers guide to Elysium


Securing Funds For Your Exploits

A set of equipment, a sea worthy vessel, and provisions are needed for any good adventurer. With a multitude of ways to earn coins you will soon have your cache of wealth ready to fund your many adventures.

Selling Commodities to Cities

The tradesman is friend to anyone looking to make their coin from selling commodities. He brokers the prices the city is willing to pay for various commodities.

  • Hunting
Tried and true hunting is the most reliable, albeit sometimes slow method of gaining coin. Carcasses are a resource that is always in demand, though not very high paying.
  • Woodcutting
A woodcutter's axe is required to start this venture, but trees are plentiful throughout the lands of Elysium and cities are willing to pay for wood. When cutting trees be sure to pick at least 10 seeds and replant the grove you are cutting down.
  • Fruit
Fruit takes time to grow and is only available on fruit groves. Picking it is easy enough and some cities are willing to pay for this form of raw food.
  • Beehives
Beehives can be found in the wild on all three continents and are the only source of wax and honey. Wax is used in candle making which isn't covered in this guide, but honey can be sold to some cities for a premium price. Beehives take a while to regenerate their resources so this isn't a good constant income source.
  • Fishing
Fish is normally in demand by most cities, but can be rather slow paced. Fishing in rivers requires a fishing rod and enough fish to be caught to make a barrel of fish. Fishing at sea requires a ship of course and a fishing net. Fishing at sea is much quicker, but isn't a viable option for those starting out.

Part Time Work

These jobs are available at various times and pay a base hourly wage. Coins are deducted from that wage when you fail to perform the job properly. These jobs are also a way to earn swap items which you can see using the swap command. Apply for a job the hour before the shift starts.

  • Morgue
The morgue pays 200 coins per hour. The shift starts at the 20th hour and lasts until midnight. Your basic job will be to process corpses through the morgue, passing them to morticians and porters as necessary.
  • Kitchen
The kitchen pays 200 coins per hour. There are two shifts available from 9-13 and 14-18. Your basic job will be to bake and have goods available for the customers.
  • Stables

Polaris

This puzzle consists of finding the correct order in which to add vials to a cauldron. You will be rewarded with 350 coins upon completion.

Occid

You will be tasked with finding the combination of levers that have to be pulled to open the safe. The wrong combination could result in harm so tred carefully. You will be rewarded 600 coins for completing this puzzle.
Different crystals can be bashed loose from the lodes located here bringing in coins ranging from 150 - 250 coins per crystal depending on the type.
On the spear studded grass Ugnolok Wugnosh challenges anyone to beat his personal best throw of 100 paces. You must wield your spear and greet Mogcrag Ziggadag to start this challenge. If you manage to throw further than 100 paces you will be rewarded with 200 coins.

Orien

  • Dragon Table
  • Treasure Cave
  • Maze
  • Tomb Robbing

Others

These boards are located in the taverns of the cities. Tasks are listed here for budding adventurers. The pay is dependent on the task available.
  • Goblet Game
This is more gambling than a guaranteed payout, but listed here for the more daring adventurers. Located in the tavern of each city, you can bet coins and pick from one of three goblets. If you select the goblet with the gold piece you win. One of the goblets contain poison making this game potentially fatal.
These will appear in cities that have good economies. They ask for various crafted items and pay generously for each item. You are only able to help them if they are in your home city.
This merchant will request items that can be found at festivals and pay an inflated price for them. Festivals are discussed later in this guide.
You can dig for treasure along the roads that connect the cities. To do this you must secure a spade. The items found are usually items other adventurers have lost to city thieves, but other treasures can be found that can be sold to treasure traders.
Searching the city streets can garner you some useful items. Each city room can only be searched so often before you must wait.
As with city searching this is listed here because you can obtain useful items more so than coin. These citizens will request items ranging from commodities to crafted goods and give you a reward in return.
