Equipment[edit]

  • the Staff of Seven - Lev(29) Loc(wield hold) 7d7 nodrop fragile holy nostore nounegg no-auction hps(39) hr(3) SKL/SPL: Resurrect (manacost -21%)
  • a tricoloured cingulum - Lev(28) Loc(waist) AW AT armor(-15) mana(30) con(-4) Cond(pristine - 185 Days)
  • misty bathing slippers - Lev(24) Loc(feet) AE AN hr(5) armor(-7) Cond(pristine - 185 Days)

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

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.
