Lvl 98+ Knud Reset Guide

(note: level 98+ is required for this)

 - Knud's quest is one of the more recent ones, added as a new sidequest for frozen adlivun

- This quest guide can be done on its own and doesnt need to be run alongside the other sidequests

- The nice part about this quest compared to constantinople quad-reset is it is shorter and faster, and each quest reward is bigger than the constantinople ones

- Total quest exp: 2,925,000
- Total quest gold: 3,225,000
- Additional: 100 Guardian Stones(beg), 30 Elixirs(pre), 20 Life Pots(pre), 3 Frozen Savior Boxes

- In terms of comparing speed, i run this quest in ~60-65 minutes, that includes scrolling 4/5 of the kill/loot quests, and only bewitching at chimera's, so on top of the 3mil quest exp for party, my 95 princess also gained 19mil exp on a test run of the quest.
3mil / 60minutes = 50k xp per merc / minute from the quest bonus alone

Requirements:
- Level 98+
- Altered Man Monster Info - Location


Start:
- It's best to get all the items the quest need straight away before you start, i tend to buy 5x quantities to ensure i have all i need for 5 complete runs of the quests, rather than continually buying them individually, below are the items required for one "set" of the quests.

Quest items to craft (can be pre-crafted):
- Bone Necklace x10

Additional materials to get:
- 500 Thick Animal Bones


Quest order:

for an illustration of these quests, please check out the table below

*** stars next to the step means the mob is great for scrolling
*** freezing scrolls are best


Walkthrough

1) Question:
The answer is Greenland

Reward: 100k exp, 115k gold



*** 2) White Wolves:
You now need to go kill level 96 white wolves for 40 "high quality fur" (quest loot)
you have to go here to find them:

Tips: You can scroll the monsters or fight them normally, they are aggressive, but have a regular sword type attack and do not have any skills

Reward: 350k exp, 300k gold, 10 Elixir[Pre]



3) Warm Coat

Right click it, thats it!

Reward: 100k exp, 115k gold



4) Angakok

Run to angakok to talk to her and return to Knud, she can be found closer to the entrance to the frozen adlivun


Reward: 100k exp, 115k gold



*** 5) Ice Guardians

You now need to kill 30 ice guardians, they can be found inside the frozen adlivun on the first floor, below is the best place to find them

Tips: Ice Breakers can cast a lightning spear, and ice guardians can suicide if they're low hp, so it's a great idea to holy guard your front row here

Reward: 350k exp, 300k gold, 10 Elixir[Pre]



6) Thick Animal Bones

Hand Knud 500 of these

Reward: 150k exp, 200k gold



*** 7) Frozen Bones

It's back to the frozen adlivun now, same monsters and tactics as step 5 except you want to loot frozen bones off the ice breakers

Tips: Different areas of a map have different concentrations of monsters, for a better chance of ice breakers move away from the entrance to a spot like this:

But do not move too far in to the area, because you begin to get deep sea ice golems which will slow you down since they dont drop the quest item.

Reward: 350k exp, 300k gold, 10 Elixir[Pre]



8) Solid Ice Chunk

Right click it, thats it!

Reward: 100k exp, 115k gold



9) Monster Infos:

You need location info on altered man, you should have this but otherwise ask your guild or nation, alternatively if both of these fail you can obtain it yourself by hunting them at the start of the third level of adlivun, the adlivun vessel.

Reward: 100k exp, 115k gold



*** 10) Altered Natives

You now need to kill 50 Altered Natives, the best place to find them is at the start of the third floor of the dungeon (Adlivun Vessel)

Tips: Altereds are a lot stronger than monsters earlier in the dungeon, with a more powerful attack and they are also axe type so they hit multiple targets.
The Altered men can cast freezing axe, and Altered natives can holy guard.
Finally, they resurrect after 3 turns of being dead, which is bad news if you dont loot them fast enough. It is good news for bewitches however, if your bewitches get beaten up in a fight and many die, simply skip 3 turns at the end of the fight and they'll all resurrect!
Their weaknesses are that the monsters have very low magic defence, so you can either aoe with magic, use scrolls, or bewitch two squads and watch as the axe types team up and destroy the enemy monsters

Reward: 350k exp, 300k gold, 20 Life Potion [Pre]



11) Bone Necklace (Quest Craft)

Hand Knud 10 of these

Reward: 175k xp, 550k gold



12) Chimera's Molars

You need to collect 30 of these, Chimera's can be found at the adlivun vessel (3rd floor) of the dungeon, however it is important to note that location is extremely important, there are three types of chimera and they appear in different quantities at different areas of the vessel.
Chimera's Molars drop from Fierce Chimera's and the best place to find them is just after the altereds, in "around" this area outlined on the minimap (distribution is still relatively random, but this is the best general place)



Tips: Chimera's have good magic defence and so it is not advised to use much magic or scroll them
Malicious Chimera's can cast seths will
Fierce Chimera's can cast a low level smoke bomb

The best way to beat these monsters quickly and easily is to bewitch two squads of Altered's from near the start of the area and use them against these monsters, since they are very effective in killing and you can resurrect your altereds by skipping turns at the end of a fight if you need to.

Reward: 550k exp, 550k gold, 100 Guardian Stone [Beg]



*** 13) Monster Info

A bit anti-climatic as a final quest, but you just need to share monster info 3 times

Reward: 100k exp, 150k gold, 3 Frozen Savior Boxes
