Gwen's Flute... Could there possibly be a "Secret Cow Level" in GW??? - Guild Wars Forums

Ibanezgtrsst07 · May 24, 2005, 07:38 PM // 19:38

This thought has recently crossed my mind. I'm sure that a majority of us have played Diablo 2 and have done the Secret Cow Level with Wirt's Leg.

Did anyone else notice that in Post-Searing Ascalon, you can find Gwen's Flute by Post-Searing Ascalon City? This led me to suspicions about there being a secret level like there was in Diablo II. Also because the same people that made D2, Warcraft, and Starcraft took part in making GW, and knowing them, they always sneak in secrets.

Since GW is still a young game, every little snippet hasn't been discovered. I don't remember how long it took people to discover the Secret Cow Level, but maybe there is something that "They" are hiding from us in GW.

Or maybe I'm just crazy, but did anyone come across this thought as well?

Oh the secret cow level...

Yeah that is a little confusing. I haven't sold the broken flute, it just has that secret feeling to it.

Only everybody.

Yeah, we pretty much all expect something to come up later involving the Flute, Cape and Tapestry Shred. We just don't know what yet.

Yep, I've been to the GW Secret Cow level. To get there you have to have the Flute, go to Lion's Arch, type "ABRACADABRA!!!" in all chat, and viola! Secret Cow Level. I've been there several times myself, all the cows are level 20 and drop purple/gold items left and right and the EXP is crazy, we got a level 1 up to level 20 in 10 minutes..

You're just crazy.

No, actually, I really have thought about crap like that.

MCS · May 27, 2005, 03:51 AM // 03:51

Ignore it, sell it, it doesn't do anything, it never will do anything, BURN it.

These people are cruel.

It's like the chat gem in d2, the "atma weapon" in dota, the clickable cows in d1. It's all a cruel joke. (Just my guess)

I'm pretty sure I read in one of the other thousand threads on this subject that, at E3, the devs said that the flute was just a momento to make you feel ennui <=== Ahaha, don't use words late at night, I mean nostalgic, thanks Zelkova === for the beginning of the game.

Draken · May 27, 2005, 06:03 AM // 06:03

I heard rummor that her mother was in the underworld, mabye that was where you are suppose to take these things

Ennui? Is that correct? Ennui=boredom. Maybe they meant nostalgia.

Gwen got to be a pain in the butt, but I have to admit I miss the kid. I miss her babbling and dancing around me.

*sniff*

I really hope the brat is dead, but just in case I'm holding on to all my tapestry shreds as well as post-searing broken flute's and torn capes. I've even got a couple Hunter's Ales squirreled away in the retarded hope that someday they'll do more than make my screen fuzzy.

DrSLUGFly · May 27, 2005, 02:23 PM // 14:23

???

u takin the piss or is there really ale in this game? (if you are takin the piss, pls think me not retarded, I've played 3 games thus far in which there were similar "drunk" effects)

CtrlAltDel · May 27, 2005, 02:30 PM // 14:30

i moved all her crap to the trash can post searing

if i find her mom in the catacombs, then i'll tell her that her little brat is on her way, lol

Yup, it's in pre-searing, though in a bit of an out-of-the-way place. You find a bunch of drunk hunters they'll send you to kill a bear in 3 minutes. Come back and they'll give you some of their ale.

sweet... it's such a shame you're limited to 1 storage box for 4 characters... (is this really true?)

No, I'm not pulling anybody's leg. It's been talked about in other posts as well:
