Is it 100% proc right?

Yeah.

ilevel soboro uh ohhhhhhh

....Koga?

Same rewards? This is potentially a pretty powerful incentive for grouping at low levels or going back to help people out. 100 sparks/kill is better than what you're going to get doing basically anything else.

The Tier 1 (200kills) was made into a non-repeating RoE which is why it is greyed out (same with Harvesting). The new RoE have scaled down rewards so they don't really offer additional incentive over the previous RoE but let you get rewards in multiple smaller segements (rather than having to keep an RoE for 200 harvest or Level sync kills active for an extended period).

Edit: The RoE are linearly scaled down from the previous options. 200 Lvl Sync kills used to give 2000 sparks/6000exp/200acc and the new 20 LvlSync repeatable gives 200sparks/600exp/20acc.
Harvesting for 300 gave the same values as the 200 lvl sync and the 30 harvest option now gives the same as the 20 lvlsync.

First Ingrid quest is pretty short, with no fight.
Instructions:

Spoiler: show

Get the Quest in Eastern Adoulin north of the square by the castle, from Rigobertine.
Run up to Oscairn, outside Peacekeepers.
Examine the Ergon Locus ??? in Yorcia Weald, in the grove of Numbing Blossoms, I-8.
Go back to Oscairn.
4k exp, 1k bayld.

Second quest starts from same NPC as the first.

Spoiler: show

Speak to Rigobertine.
Head to Yorcia Weald G-6, get a cutscene from Suspicious Roots.
Hit it for a BCNM with a Dullahan. Managed to duo with RDM & THF, although THF died at 40%. It's possible to keep Ingrid alive, but hate will go a bit wild. Gravity/Bind helps a lot!
Once you win, you get chucked out immediately. Check the Suspicious Roots for the last cutscene, and your rewards.
Rewards: 12k exp, 3k bayld, and an elixir tank.

No triumvirate quest?

No triumvirate quest?

February unfortunately. Not much content at all this patch

[Kanriel]

I'm pretty sure they had a week off for New Years and such so had to leave this patch to be weaker. You know, Japanese golden week 3-4x a year.

[Maurauc]

Quest summaries and rewards are up. I think they're leading on to the Triumvirate stuff. There was a hint or two throughout.
Can't say the rewards are the best, but beats nothing.

[errantfish]

Any information on the third quest "The Curious Case of Melvien"?

[Maurauc]

Supposedly Margret is the start NPC, but I can't find where to start it. It says Sverdhried Hillock, but no NPC there, nor the door, nor her house by the statue have a start.

[NynJa]

of all the RoE changes, they left spoils as is, instead of compressing geodes and avatarites. What a bunch of douchebags.

[Foldypaws]

What would even be the point of sacrificing some refresh in other slots in order to get 1 more in the body over hag?

The set I posted wasn't meant to be ideal, just easy. That said, the max refresh set also uses this body: with -5 from staff, -1 from ring, -3 from legs, and then -5 from hands/feet (swapping to keep the whichever serpentes piece is active) you don't need any other -perp. That nets you 1 more refresh than any setup that uses Hag body.

Not really. Hag body is 1 less refresh than this body but the -perp on that would let you use refresh legs and there is a 1-2 refresh legs... so ends up being exactly the same or 1 worse

But you can go a step higher with this body and do nirvana -8, ring -1, -5 from hands/feet swapping and then using this body and refresh legs which would be another one then the set right above. Of course a bit harder need mythic and 5 on both hands and feet

The 1-2 refresh legs *are* the -3 perp legs I'm talking about above. https://www.bg-wiki.com/bg/Assid._Pants_%2B1

Ah fuck I totally forgot they had perp too. Fine you got me there.

Ok then let's go super crazy and -1 ring, 5 hands/feet, 3 legs, 5 hag body and refresh wand when Oneiros Grip isn't active. But yeah screw spending the millions for those augments

Wasn't the triumvirate originally planned for december but then delayed? >____>

[Tachi]

Few infos on the new unity NMs.

Sybaritic Samantha
Can morph during the fight (with Sweet Breath?) Morbol > bigger Morbol > Ameretat
High chances the last form can Extremely Bad Breath or Fragrant Breath.
I believe I saw a blue stagger during the fight.

Keeper of Heiligtum
Abnormally strong, hits for 700-1100, Beatdown for 2500, Hundred Fists.

Douma Weapon
Smite of Rage can up to 1500-2400 without PDT or EA/Scherzo
Pops 2 Katashiro Weapon per Whirl of Rage to a maximum of 6. Adds are immune to Sleep / Lullaby.
When the main NM does Smite of Rage, each add will teleport on a random player and Smite of Rage him for 700-1000.

King Uropygid
Death Scissor can one shot without PDT or EA/Scherzo.
Draw in and does multiple TP moves in a row.
Has Earthbreaker.

Vedrfolnir
Feather Barrier give him an immense Evasion Boost and not the fact of WSing during staggers.
During Stormwind spam modes, each Stormwind is exactly 2 times stronger than the precedent.

[dasva]

I'll add that Feather Barrier didn't seem that strong when I stole it. Didn't record exactly what my evasion went to but from what I remember seemed to take me from 880ish to 980ish... but it's fairly evasive to begin with so even just 100 (or more if it was percentage based) would be rather noticeable. Luckily thfs want this and we had a blu to start a darkness skillchain which only took off about 5-10% but then doing TA rudra's into double darkness would take it down to 30%

[tarumalphius]

Any word on what the Subligar drop from?

[Kainstryder]

Subligar is from the goobbue. Can check all new drops and where they come from via the Unity NPCs and what it takes to upgrade said armor.
