In light of the recent (and profuse) gripes that there isn't enough content for new players, +Nyx decided to modify her plans for Mistvale (the new-player city). The city will still open when she and +Colibri have time to finish it up, but since that could be months and months, she decided to open the dungeons she'd already made for young players, and add the quests she'd had on her list.
Contents
Where to Go
Various citizens of Mistvale have taken up residence in a large building outside of Excelsior Halls. Take the Excelsior Halls teleporter, then run west along the path until you are outside of the city walls. The building is along the path. Step into the sparkles to be moved inside. Please note that only players over 21 days' account age and under 120 days of account age are able to / allowed to access this area. This includes all of the quests and dungeons.
The Quests
There are currently 12 quests, available only to young players. Say "Hail" to any of the quest NPCs to activate their dialogue. You may need to say the keyword a few times in order to properly trigger the NPC.
Mistvale Armaments Armor Set
There is an entirely new armor set available via 6 quests, a pre-GoC set that should help young players with their progression. Speak to Thaddeus along the west wall of the building to get started.
You can only run one of the Armaments, sash, cloak or reaper quests at a time. You will need to select one, finish it, and then begin the next. There are 6 total quests in the Armaments line.

Mistvale Apiculture
This is repeatable quest to assist young players with the upkeep of their bees. It may be completed once per week. This quest may be completed in tandem with the Armaments, Sash, Cloak, and Reaper quests.
You will be asked to collect 1800 plain wood and 250 ingots in the first step. Next, you will deliver various packages to Mages in Trammel.
Mistvale Monster Contracts
This is a repeatable quest that rewards the player with gold. It may be repeated every 7 days and may be completed in tandem with the Armaments, Sash, Cloak, and Reaper quests.
This quest is highly dynamic. You will receive a contract to kill a specific type of monster. If you complete that quest book before it decays, you will receive another contract that is slightly harder. You can complete up to 4 books per week. Each book decays after 2 days. Each book you turn in will result in a reward of gold, increasing with the difficulty of the contract. This quest is randomized, meaning that from week to week the monsters you need to kill will change. ALL monsters needed for every contract spawn inside the 5 young-player dungeons.
Mistvale Merchantile
Assist Mistvale's foremost merchant and receive an item bless deed. This quest can be repeated every 2 weeks and may be completed in tandem with the Armaments, Sash, Cloak, and Reaper quests.
You will first be asked to collect 4,000 each of Ash, Zircote, Yew, Ebony, and Oak boards. Then you will collect 4,000 each of Regular, Spined, Horned, Barbed and Daemonic leathers.
The Dungeons
To access any of the new dungeons, step into the sparkles along the North wall of the Safe Haven building. You will be teleported into a nearby building that holds gates to each dungeon. Click on the gate to find out the name of the dungeon. All mobs in every dungeon give bonus weapon XP, currently 2x higher than their regular counterparts. When you enter one of these dungeons, the area immediately surrounding the exit portal is a safe zone. No difficult mobs can be dragged into these areas. If they are dragged near the safe zone, they will be deleted and will respawn according to their usual spawn timer.
Aelwic
This dungeon utilizes the empty duplicate of the Citadel in Magda and spawns mostly undead and evil mages.
The Forgotten Crypts
Using the Fan Dancer's dupe, this dungeon is nearly all undead, including a few balrons.
Nimre
In the Labyrinth dupe, Nimre is primarily undead and elementals, it also holds several balron spawns.
The Nameless Ruins
In the Bedlam dupe, this one houses undead.
Thilon Mines
Mainly features elementals, hell hounds, and hell cats.
The Rares
There are approximately 45 new stealable rares spread across the 5 dungeons. After extensive searching the shard to see if any of these graphics were owned by players, +Nyx found that only 2 of these rares had ever been in player possession, and only on very old accounts. Nearly everything that the young players can steal from the dungeons is something that no player, veteran or otherwise, has. +Nyx hopes that this will improve newbie-veteran relations as well as give young players another route for sales. Below is a small sampling of the available rares.
Rules
- You may not share quest items in any way, shape, or form. Doing so is an exploit and punishable by confiscation if items, removal of Mistvale access, and jail.
- If the staff find that an older player has purposefully gained access to any of these areas - the safe haven, the dungeon building, or any of the individual dungeons themselves - there will be dire consequences to be determined at that time.
- All quests that are listed as non-repeatable are meant to be such. If you stumble upon a way to run these quests multiple times, you must report it or face heavy punishment for exploiting.
- If you are a returning player and purchase an account recovery, you will not be permitted to access Mistvale.
