Best places to make...

Health Essences

* Cave connection between Trassian and Iscalrith (C2)

This cave contains silver ore right at the exit to Trassian. Hidden in the flower bush with Blue Star Flowers you can find some Chrysanthemums. Around the fountain red toadstools are growing. In the other bushes you can find Vegetables. The closest storage is the Glacmor skill school (335,132). You don't need cold protection in the cave itself, but it is necessary for the cave-storage path.

Matter Essences

* Crystal Cavern, Desert Pines (C1)

Bring pickaxes and food if you want to alch at the spot.

Have a look at Bloodsucker's map. Notice the spot with three quartz ores, and the iron ore nearby. Take into account that a ME weighs 1 EMU, much less than the ingredients to make it.

Watch out for updates!

More secrets... (part 5)

LO AND BEHOLD, ELCHEATS resurrects!!!!

1-To get to the BOC's map:

1 blue star flower
1 steel shield

The guild map entrance is in Emerald Valley. Walk to the Idaloran exit and use the steel shield with the pole. Once inside use the steel shield with the reaper statue and you will appear somewhere in a different spot; there will be an egg right in front of you. Use the egg to get into there guild map.

Note: To get into the building you will get a message such as "The reaper is sleeping" Use the blue star flower with the building to enter. Also there is a PK arena and in the pub there is PK on a platform.

2 PK map in VOTD - use the well next to tavern

3 Diamonds in Grahms Village (WS). Go to my entry with the Grahm's Village Maze solution (how to get there and solve it is fully explained in the entry). After the maze, you'll get to a room with a table.

In the back middle there's a little statue with a harvestable diamond on it.


Thanks everyone for your submissions!

YEW

Yew is used to make bows and arrows.

-Then go to a general store and get a saw.

Where to get it?

In C1
-In Grubani Peninsula. 70,229 (Enter at your own risk!)

Happy (and slow) YEW harvesting!!

Macroing II

Related entries:

• -Macroing guide

-Wear Learner's cape for free

Some people keep asking me to do a more thorough guide to macroing.

Let's start with the basics:

Is it really possible to macro in Eternal Lands?

The answer is YOU BET!

It was much, much easier in the past. The annoying harvesting events, the changing camera angles upon entering new maps, a 24/7 watching Big Brother have all been implemented to prevent people from macroing.

However, if you're swift enough and spend some time doing your homework, there's almost nothing you can't macro.

How to start macroing?

The easiest skill to macro is manufacturing/mixing. The reason is that your screen is fixed while you're manuing. Once upon a time, it was necessary to click every single time you wanted to mix anything. Can you imagine having to click-mix thru any 1000 FE's batch you were doing? That was a pain in the ass.

Thus, for the simplest macroing you can use the simplest software to get started into macroing. Autoclick is a good program for such a repetitive task as mixing. You can download it here.

The next simplest skill to macro is harvesting. However we got 2 problems:

• There are spots full of people

• There are the harvesting events.

This is when homework has to be done. Some macroing software will click either in the position you determine, either at some spot fulfilling the parameters you decide**.

** For example, a paramenter would be COLOR. Got it???

What about something like fighting? Some macroing software can detect images (example) or, once again, colors. Now go to your favourite spawn and let your macroing program look for that naughty rabbit and kill it for you.

FINAL TIPS:

Macroing software follows pretty much the same working pattern, but some are more sofisticated than others.

If your macroing is based on time intervals, try to simulate with your macro what you would do with your hand. Does your hand click 1000 times a second? Then don't do that with a macro. Does your manual clicking happen at an exact interval of 2 seconds? Then be a little creative with your intervals.

The map is your friend. BUT if you mapwalk... Please don't go to the same coordinates time and time again.

Keep an eye once in a while while you macro. Interact with some people once in a while. Don't keep your character working on something 24 hours straight and so on... That is, you can always get caught, but don't make it easy.

Don't underestimate mods: They are banning-lovers. If they get you doing the same thing all the time, going to the flower shop in PL to sell 2 blue lupines after a harvesting event... Summarizing, if you do absurd things you will get caught and readily banned.

Some Macroing software available:

-Sleephunter

-Autoit

-Autoclick

-Macro Express

-Autohotkey -

LAST, BUT NOT LEAST

If you're gonna comment something like...

allow me to happily ROTFLMAO... Ah! If those who have macroed successfully for years would come into light, the list would be longer than you think.

NOTE: If you're gonna comment, do it anon, or simply don't use your ingame's nick (unless you're gonna bash this site or me in the comments... then you can use your nick, to show your fidelity to "Teh God").

On a side note, I'm having a lot of job, guys... The one that helps pay your bills. This page will come back in full force somewhere in the summer. In the meantime, there are many nice sites where you can find cheats, secrets, and much more for Eternal Lands. Google is your friend.
