Dino island is a joke.

it is.

lol?

Do the quest, then.

I hate the velociraptors (http://xkcd.com/c87.html), why would you make raptors? (http://xkcd.com/c135.html)

It's an intense island, and it's impossible to bot in it.
Also, you can get the best spellbooks and amulets there, as well as the new top A grade items.
You can even get clan points for killing Huge-Exp T-Rex's.

I'd say it's a pretty nice island if you put it into the "Clan Event" mentality.

I think it's a bit messed up to have to go to an area much harder than Imperial Tomb to get top A weapon recipes. Imp. Tomb being the area where you get S grade weapon recipes. Seems a bit backwards, don't you think?

noobs arent allowed

it is indeed a bit a twist of the mind to put A grade
recipes in extremly hard area, when ..
they already drop and spoil...
the effort should indeed meet the reward
if u have to be in a bit (ehayed -botted ) clan to achieve such goals
i say it ruins the game just a tat more
to get things that are not worth it
only the books and amulets are of worth
for a while...
and where is the logic of making new skill books and amulets
drop in area's 75 +++ when the skill is below 70 ?
no level 70 in his sound mind can go get it,
the person so will have to pay big price
or beg his clan

Paying up
begging

are certainly things i would not like to do
i am not a geisha or a commoner

it is.

Very high powered clans/alliances should have no problem with the island. , Smaller group can do it but you just have to be careful what you aggro.

All joking aside, i went with my ally yesterday to do Sailren and it's a pretty cool place provided you have a group that can survive.

I know that one of the alliances on Lionna have gone to PI and pretty much live there now. Kiroth can confirm =P

No matter what party you have, make friends with someone with PR or have a good stock of BSoE's :P

NC does a lot of putting drops for gear way above the level where they would actually be used. Doing it with spellbooks and amulets is new to me. I don't know why they do this, and it is quite annoying.

Greetings,

I don't know why they do this, and it is quite annoying.

When a police officer gives you a ticket, you just have to remember it's their job, and you are under their level.

Imagine the job of monitoring these police officers.

But if you want a challenge. Try monitoring 350 people who gather secrets for you.

Have Fun ! ™

This island is well designed and fun but I don't like exp there. It takes lots of time and efforts to kill the dino and at the end you get 26-28k exp solo or less in party. It's much easier to get the same exp at Varka/Ketra, IT, catacombs, etc.

I think they created this island for EE's, because if you go there at one point you will probably need a party recall.

I won't say much but if you think even a sec you will understand. This island gives FREE XP to daggers. It's not a bug or an exploit. It is just the way things work. For now. Others can also get this free xp but they just need an extra help. And yes, the xp is unlimited and it also comes with sp.

You would need a PR especially if you don't come with an EE. Shield buffed tank is pretty much prerequisite, no?

Level 63 dagger soloing on PI. No outside buffs needed.

Hmm, Lure and Silent Walk, avoiding TRexes?

Probably a mixture of that and Trick.

No lure, no trick, no switch. Straight killing.

Then, what? I didn't spend enough time on PI to figure out any of the aggro and social nuances there...

Use your gatekeepers wisely. This method, however, has the potential to bring down 1/4th of the island on top of you. But with the other method the dinos won't even know you're there.

the skill that puts mobs at 1hp wanna bet? :P

That ain't it.

Stealth to the village GK, backstab a dino, port, port back, backstab again?

In UR we can handle Dino Island fine, only I've died a few times while training.

But why are the drops and experience so bad? If Dino Island is like featured so much, why is it how it is? I mean it looks really cool, but guaranteed 90% of the server can't hunt there effectively, and the 10% who can don't want to because it's terrible.

It's like another stakado nest, going to be empty as soon as everyone gets their spellbooks.

u should try being a clan hated by the whole server , u exp for 5 minutes then your ganked on top of having that many mobs attacking u for that [censored] exp

Fers? are you on Erica? lol!

Last time we went, we were in a team of 8, hysterically funny when you attack a little dino and a pack of 4 come running up. Some can bsoe, nearly all die, but then you have one guy who runs.........and runs........

not good for XP but very very funny even so.
