The Silk Files..The truth is out there

[Montolio]

I noticed today that while I was killing water ghosts, they would drop poison, which is what I was about to need for a quest. I don't know I just found it wierd that I had two different stacks of water ghost poison. I wish I could have just combined the stacks.

Also, one looked like drops of blood and the other looked like a green pile of ash. Don't ask me, I have no answers as to why.

hmm...the green colored poison in your inventory is the quest item, while the blood drops are alchemy materials

I just noticed Earth Toaists are to lazy to walk and flaot on a rock with a legs crossed

[Chaos-Angel]

Just kill all who opose you.

[Grimjaw]

I have another one.

Did anyone notice how the bandit's and bandit archers have no pupils and wear tiger skinned hats?

Could it be that because they wore the tigers's skins the curse or wrath of tiger girl got placed inside them?

Crap that one was good.

I'v been REALY bored lately, and made some AMAZING discoveries while siting around town

7 How can you hunt 30 heads of Hyeonchegon in that Level 28 quest, if they have no heads?
(credit to YourWorstNightmare) [SOLVED] by Gekijou, Sendako

8 in jangan there's a palace, but were's the emperor?, and a military camp with no soldiers, and empty whore houses...is chna a peacfull country?

these are only a few of the Silk Files, i shall make more discoveries in the future....

yeah... thx for the portal, its cool

the day time thing is probably cause its more visible for mobs when hunt in game (if you brightness set to lwo)

the floating woman is a zombie (according to JM), however, in chinese beliefs, zombies actually JUMP, they have straight knees that couldn't bend, LOLZ

have you noticed that the Headless are actually having one head on their hand?? they've lost their head in warfare, and died, revive by some Paladin or something, then become monster and kill people (simply get another 4 fun?)

To answer your last question, i can tell you some about chinese history

A. The emperor thing, in fact, the emperor's palace is forbidden for commoner to go in, there's a parliament like thing in the palace, and the resident for the emperor and his few hundred wives, concubines and such..... hence, it would make more sense if JM makes the Jangan palace in side the city, and only acessible to high lvls, they can become Generals and Ministers by doing quest for the Emperor, lolz............

BTW, Jangan in Tang dynasty is around 4 times bigger than London, UK!!

B. Silkroad took place around Tang dynasty, this is one of the most prominent dynasty in Chinese history, the officials have flexible strategy in the means of forein affairs......... they not always go to war, although they have a lot of great military generals. The ancient Chinese people are really friendly to foreigners, although some are arrogant since they are live in the Oasis Kingdom (Tang dynasty is the richest kingdom at that time in the world). You'll see merchants from all over the world doing sales Therefore, some Tang Emperors rarely goes to war, instead, they focus on economy and education................. they've send their princesses to marry other kingdom/empires' princess, uniting countries

if it's necessary, no doubt they are going for war, and we are talking about Hundreds of thousands of people! Since China has around 1/4 of the entire population in the world at that time!

During the heydays of Tang, all the countries around become part of the union, which they have to pay intribute to the Emperor.

However, at the last Tang period, they have few victories over their enemies, since the corrupted government and STUPID Emperors succeeds the throne............

the arbitrary government in ancient China sucks........ everything is depend on the "quality" of the Emperor, unlike England or US, parliament has more power


Back to topic, JM probably doesn't want a big lag if you see millions of soldiers in the military camp!!

haha right

[monet]

i dont know if someone already mentioned this but if you set your shadow on detailed and look at shadows of people who stall you can see their weapon on shadow, but there is no weapon in their hands.

[AudioHavok80]

how u can walk inside the moat around jangan and be underwater and then it's cool to use mob summon scrolls and have it out. *glub* *glub*

[AudioHavok80]

why is it that the first task in the game tells u to go and meet general sonhyeon at the south gate when he's really at the west gate of jangan. not really a good way to impress noobs with this game. lol.

[TacticalMedic]

Yo, I and some other members here would really like to know how you guys get underwater, like In Jangan or Hotan. Ive tried Hotan but I get "Disconnected due to network insecurity". which is sort of....understandable. But Ive tried and tried.... and I still cant go underwater in the big river near Jangan. Some tutorials or so would be apreciated....

[JackB4u3r]

C=shi
8= pal

put it together and you get shipal

I don't want to read all 7 sites, so i googled a little bit and simply found this site!

http://www.insultmonger.com/swearing/korean.htm

Check it out and you will find that shipal means f*ck!

Donno if anyone has solved this earlier, if so sorry for double post

Anyway, a GREAT post!

yea dude, it took me 15 min the first time to find him, maybe its a trick quest, u kno, to test if ur a true adventurer and not rely on NPCs for all the info, this is how Crayon choose the members of the elite unit that is to defend the world if the power of the magic c8 is to fall in the hands off evil doers, kinda like the Men In Black, but it will be the Men In Seal of Sun

[Vandango]

ive just noticed wtahcing some other version SRO vids

and all of em say Critical in ENGLISH??

Explain that

thats so no matter what country ur from, the other players kno that ur kicking ass

[Devotia]

1. The place it goes to hasn't been implemented yet. Check around the forum for the "full map" of SRO. I believe that one goes to Heaven/Buddha, but since no one really knows, I could be wrong. There's something like 20 zones total on the full world map, and we have 4 (Jangan, Don, Hotan, Takla) There's also one or two in Hotan near the palace.

2. It's winter.

3. Inflatable titties.

4. The soldiers are the PCs, as are the whores. I'm the emperor. Now give me my taxes, worm.

why under the ice at karakoram are there snow covered buildings and pathways? If that huge area of solid ice formed wouldnt it had to have been water first, thus meaning that snow couldnt possibly exist under the ice because it would have melted first.

maybe its salt not snow, like here when they cover the streets with salt in winter, the asians were advanced wernt they?

[crazy_foo]

cool stuff

[Redneck29]

I find the following a bit strange:

80% of White Tigers do not have Skin
90% of Black Tiger do not have teeth.
70% of Devil Bugs must have Jedi Powers - they fly but don't have wings.
60% of Chajki also have Jedi Powers- they see but don't have eyes.
Hyungno Ghost soldiers are animated corpses, therefore they are dead, but they are the only Mobs that Bleed when you kill them ????

[JaJa]

One of the rice paddies to the south of Jangan on RedSea will cause your char to be sucked into a black hole that causes constant runtime errors. Spooky.

[heroo]

Lol don't know if this already has been mentioned, but if u kill a NPC thief with a women-thiefsuit, when she dies u'll hear a man screaming, cuz (s)he's diying -.-, try it out lol ^^ .


BTW, nice topic, most things i knew and some not, but really funny

[Sponge]

very good topic! well done! I have some wierd thing in sro of my own check this out:
-you now when there's a champion, no matter what kind of monster, it's never the original color of the monster and it has those wierd things on it, but when there are giants, they are just big and the same original color as the monster. check it out if u don't believe me.

-when you're in dw territory, and it rains, the rain lasts only for 1 minute and usually the rain starts when its night, and when the rain ends, it's day. (it now always works but it works 80% of the time check it out)

-you know when you're killing a monster with your wolf, when the monster has like very low health, and 1 hit will kill it, it's either you or the wolf that will "throw the last punch", you cannot kill it togather, (unless it has more HP then you and your wolf going to hit) this always works try it, and try using a weak weapon so that you won't kill the monster in 1-2 hits

-Enjoy.

[bowner]

i have another.... go in the chin tomb all the way to the bak wehere the guard spawns... while facing guard spawn, (while at top of stairs) turn right and go into the wall... u will GO into the wall... little cool place in the wall to chill...y?

[Shimohime]

when I was a newb, it took me so long to find npcs and stuff. it took nearly an hour for me to find flora. A lot of quests later also makes you go look at the wrong gate =(

this may be cuz recently they changed the sound scheme, they changed the normal voice for when you do a critical hit for what was the death scream about a 5 months ago

1. they are variants of the same spicies, like mutations, so i would expect some difereneces

2.this could be explained by the first discovery i made in the game, that night like 9 min and day is like 20, (1 min in twilight)

[---Rev---]

I would like to point out that although heyocheons are headless therefore dont have eyes or ears they are agro so how do they tell you are there just seems a little strange to me

yea, but so was the headless horsemen, but whats stoping him, maybe they have built in GPS, or fish skin, they can detect presure fluctuations in the water thru thier skin, or maybe thier just like headless chikens and die in a week, they do respawn afterall
