Anyone ever seen this drop?
Anyone ever seen this drop?
Isn't this one of the requirements to enter the astral candy BC? Maybe it only drops when mamook has the candy?Originally Posted by Priran
The requirements are two key items, a red bell and a blue bell. Never heard of a silverscale key.
There's a door deep in Mamook that asks for something "black, brown, and silver", which assumedly refers to the keys.
Also assumed, it's the gate to the "new areas added" to Mamook, which is why I'd like it opened.
I remember getting about 3 of them one day, before everyone started clustering to the Mamool Ja SP xp camp... no one really knew what it was for... I think we all ended up tossing em.
If you mean in Bhaflau, those are Blackscale keys.Originally Posted by Kudosai
It seems this key will probably be used to get access to the "new" areas of Mamook that were announced in the update.
Halvung and Arrapago should have equivalents.
I remember getting two different key sets, one in thickets and the other we were just roaming around Mamook killing everything. I believe one of these dropped near the prisoner cages.
From my experience, Mamools at the Staging Point camp dropped Blackscale, which are used for open cages.Originally Posted by solsovly
Tanscale drops from Mamools inside Mamook, and are used to open doors throughout the area.
No idea where Silverscale comes from though. Perhaps from the new NMs guarding mirrors, or the NMs that increase the enemy force rate?
Silverscale key drops off the DC EM Mamools in Mamook. The IT VT drop blackscale key.
You're sure about that? I think I remember those dropping Tanscale.Originally Posted by Takeno

What about the VT true-sight mobs (not guarding mirrors) in Mamook? I think they share names with the ones outside, but it doesn't necessarily mean they need to share drops? If memory serves, I ran into one just east of the entrance from training grounds staging point.
Last night we had a Silverscale key drop off of a Mamool near the Mahogany Door at G-6 in Mamook. We had Tanscale keys drop off the DC~EM Mamools near the entrance to Mamook at M-9 (I think, unless it was L-10). As for Blackscale keys, those were from VT~IT in both Mamook and Bhaflau Thickets.Originally Posted by Priran
I think all three keys were used at G-6 (EDIT: nope, used Red Bell) and we moved on to this map:

Entered around or at I-5. I had to log out before we found the entrance to the BC, but the remaining group tried the BC fight a few times and eventually completed it. Not sure how long it took them though.
Also took a stab at the new NM, Hundredfaced Ja Mool or something like that. It spawned four copies of itself and spammed Firespit.
Also got a Silverscale, this time off one of the sahagin Mamool Ja. I have the other two keys on me as well, so if I find this door that requires all three I'll check it out.
Ono, was the door opened by three of you at the same time, or could someone have all the keys, and open the door themselves?
One person with all three keys.Originally Posted by Credos
This map is the path to AC BC only.. accessed by using key item bell at G-6 first map in mamook:

Tansacle Key: Low lvl mamools in mamook
Silverscale Key: Sahagins in mamook
Blackscale Key: High lvl mamools in mamook/bhaflau
Apparently trading all 3 keys to the door at E-8 on this map opens the door to where new NM spawn.. might need more than just these 3 keys though.

My bad, that Mahogany Door in my first post did use the Red Bell item. Sorry about that.
There was a second Mahogany Door we came across down where the wyvern mobs were, but we did not have three keys at that time. Sorry for the confusion.

That's all folks.
