Anvil

Anvil's area comprises three distinct locations. For newbies level 7 and below, there is an large region called Beginner's World, which is surprisingly and welcomingly complex (more than 120 rooms!) for an area designed with new players in mind. Beginner's World boasts multiple sources of healing, a treasure hunt, three very special fountains, and lots of tiny- to medium-sized baddies to slay. For more experienced players, the town of Hammersmith awaits, as well as a quest in the forest.

Finding Anvil's Area

From the village green, go 3W to the edge of a forest, and then 3S. From here you can enter Beginner's World to the W, or continue S toward Hammersmith.

Tips & Tricks

• Anvil's area is home to 5 puzzles, as well as one quest: Catch the Horse.
• Be sure to pick up a map when you arrive in Beginner's World for the first time.
• Intrepid explorers may find three hidden fountains in Beginner's World. Drinking water from each of these fountains rewards a bonus of experience, gc, or equipment. Be sure to drink only once.
• The ranger in Beginner's World seems to know of some buried treasure.
• Clever newbies may utilize a flotation device to reach otherwise inaccessible parts of Beginner's World.

Healing

All healing in Anvil's area lies within Beginner's World.

• The Stonepub serves beer free to players up to level 3. Higher levels pay just 2gc. What a deal!
• In the northeastern corner of Beginner's World is the Temple of Pell, where players may sacrifice worthy items to receive minor healing.
• The game-keeper's hut next door to the temple not only has facilities for you to fry up your own kills, but there is often some free food there for the taking.
• Be cautious of venturing into the forest east of the stable without a compass.
• The neighborhood just outside Hammersmith advertises some great amenities in town, but it is unfortunately impossible to enjoy these services, as it doesn't appear possible to enter Hammersmith proper.
