Initial Notes[edit]
- Verthandi has four seasons. Unlike Arcadia, only one season is active at a time.
- the zone DOES repop with people inside
- to change seasons, kill Verthandi 7X. Season will change on the next repop. Otherwise the season will stay the same forever (across restarts).
- You need 7 items to make the staff: 3 !rent, 4 Seasonal.
- Before going to the !rent components be sure to check the season. The room name at the beginning of the zone gives a hint as to what season it is.
- A bright, Autumn Trail = Fall
- A Snowy, Woodland Track = Winter
- A Forest in Flower = Spring
- A Lazy Summer Trail = Summer
- when zone repops, a rentable comp like shard will not reload
- *****IMPORTANT*****
- It is most efficient to make multiple staves at once (we recommend 9 at a time)
- You must kill Queen Verthandi a minimum of 16 times to make a single Staff of Seven, but only 24 times to make nine staves.
- This means you should get nine seasonal comps before triggering season change

- The egg does not load every time, but you can scry phoenix to see if it loaded.

Verthandi[edit]
To get to Verthandi:
Go to Phoenix, 3d 2e d.
Notes for killing Verthandi solo:
- it is possible to flee north, west, or south from Verthandi.
- the only entrance back to Verthand is from the north. If you flee west or south, follow the path north, then east until you're at the north flee room.
- trap and clear each of the 3 fleeable rooms
- keep corner 2 north of verthandi trapped
- watch for rats on flee, have autosneak on
- avoid ghosts, as they are very difficult
- set wimpy 150
- Verthandi stabs fast, so always run in and init magic missile for images or use colour spray
- dispel, plague, blind, poison
Making Staff[edit]
After you kill Verthandi, be sure you have all 7 comps in inventory, and sleep. Staff is created when you wake in 3 minutes.
- Make sure you're not formed when you sleep to make the staff.
- You can only make 1 staff at a time, with 7x comps in your inventory, but you can repeat this step.
