The Beacon Network Guide

Beacon Network Guide

Image
Since I worked hard and came up with a route for the beacon i might as well make a guide of it for everyone who may need it in the future.
There are a total of 14 beacons, 5 of them are in the wilderness making them quite annoying. each beacon requires 20 (same type) logs
and doing all 14 will require 280 logs. you may give 5 logs to the guard who's watching the beacons to extend the length the beacon burns for.

so first you place all the logs into the beacons first then a second trip to light them all at once. There are some beacons that requires you to fix somethings or else you cant access it. so make sure you get that done too.

I used maple logs and i had a total of 300, 280 for beacons, and 20 for paying the first 4 guards just in case.
for my inventory i brought with me game necklace, digsite necklace, combat bracelet, 10 maples, 5 white tree fruits, goblin village sphere, 3 energy pots, 3 super energy pots, 1 dose of super stat restore, tinderbox, runes to tele to trollheim, and terrorbird to hold the other 10 maple logs.
ImageImage

we have our items, we have all 14 beacons filled with our logs. now here's the route that I did
I didn't bother making all the guards available to look after my beacon, but i wanted to pay a few to make sure everything is okay. So I decided to start from edgeville, it'd also save me the trouble of bringing a glory amulet also.
Image
yeah, it looks a little messy~, but its cause i teleport alot!!
First from edgeville, light them one by one going east there should be 4 including the one in edgeville, ending near lumbermill.
Then I don't know why i didnt feel like walking right over and down, but i used digsite necklace and got to digsite went north and took care of the 5th and 6th beacons.
after these 2, goblin village sphere came in handy and got rid of the 7th beacon in gob vill.
game necklace to burthrope and theres a beacon to the east of it. 8 done~
next combat bracelet to monastery and to the black knight's fortress, behind it is our 9th beacon.
slightly over to the west we can hop right into the wilderness, travel northwest to around wilderness level 13~ 17 should be our 10th beacon.
here you can cast trollheim teleport (lets hope no rev teleblocked you) east of trollheim tele requires agility level to get to, light that, but don't go out into the wild go back and then run up to the entrance of gwd. north of it is our 12th beacon, if your fm level is 92, you might need to drink your super stat restore like i needed. here you can hop off the snowy area and into the wild.
run north from here and ull find the last 2 beacons. and ur done!

Here's a video of my run in 2x speed cuz the whole thing took like 10minutes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C9auAaZYGA

Near the end of the video I panicked a bit since my FM dropped down from gwd area to below 92 and i couldn't light the last one
luckily it was 91/92 and it went back to 92/92 just in time lol

Thanks for the guide Grand. One more tip you could save up space in inventory by using tireless Run scroll and a helm (e).

Nice guide, and congratulations.

I used the pool in ooglog for infinite run energy for 15 minutes just before starting my beacon run. If you have access to it I would highly reccommend it.

Nice GM, i'm close to 92 and was starting to think how to handle this.
I was considering starting in deep wild, but u gave me some food for thought.

@aruji : im a summon noob (lowest skill 57) so i got no idea how to do that
@gg: i got ooglog unlocked but theres so many pools and i got no idea what each does. so i never bothered to go dipping, Ill look into it, 15min unlimited run sounds very useful for alot of things!
@darth: coward >=O
and everyone else, im just glad to help~ :)

I just finished my own run in 10 minutes flat.

Thx again for your info GM!

I handled it slightly different tho
- started at Paterdomus beacon - handed 5 logs to keeper
- ran to all the beacons till edge (u could gain even a lil more time by using glory from GE to edge but I didnt think about that)
-use combat bracelet to tele to monastery
-lighted Black knights beacon and then the lvl 13 wildy one, uusing the shortcut at black knights outpost
-used a tele globe to gob village, lighted the beacon there
-used combat bracelet again to warrios guild in burthope - lighted the burthope beacohn
-teled to trollheim
-lighted the trollheim beacon
-ran to the gwd beacon - used sup restore when lighting the beacon (stat drain from that area)
-used agil shortcut to enter wildy
-ran to the last 2 beacons
all done in 10 minutes, the beacons were still burning when i went to look at them after getting my reward(s) from the king :)

i only needed the tiredless run scrolls from my terrorbord, but had my explorers ring for insurance with me.

ps a nice/fun tip : if u hand a beacon guardian a macaw pouch he/she/it will be able to show u the status of ALL beacons :) (only 10 guardians, the last 2 dont have one, so only 10 pouches are needed)

I think we may need a scouting party to help people get the adze from now on! Has anyone tried since the wild is back into play?
