Nomad to Euro Shing Jea is working for me right now with 1-pointers. Just a heads up

Funny thing, last night healing princess found a portal that works going from amnoon oasis out into prophet's path and the two of us zoned our brains out. Today i gave it a try, popped off a spiked eggnog and walked out into prophet's and....nothing. So i decided that i would go to nolani academy and farm some gargoyle skulls and when i had mapped there i had my 3 extra drunk minutes from the eggnog i used in amnoon.

Yes if you don't find a zone that works, you can try a bunch of towns/ zones and randomly you should find your 3 minute zone.

Hello guys

I seem to not be able to get this to work. I understand the process and the concept behind but I can't get my mins clocked in. My guild's hall is the Isle of Wurms and I tried warping from dasha to guildhall and back and there would be no changes. I would warp back and forth a couple times but I only occurred 1 drunkard points per real minute. As a side note I'm using spiked nogg. I've gotten a buttload over the holidays.

Any suggestions? Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Cross

Hey this is a great guide, good work on the research~

I think I have found a permanent window Quarrel Falls -> Burning Isle GH.

EDIT: After reading a bit more it seems that most windows like this arent permanent, but w/e I can't test atm so someone else go for it if you want

I decided to try this zoning theory out with my small supply of Spiked nogs, this is how i went:

First off, I couldn't find any referance for Burning Isle GH, so I decided to try using another GH in my alliance, Isle of Meditation (as this one is noted as having a limitless window in the first post i beleive).

I went to Quarrel Falls, chugged a Spiked nog and hurried to the GH, nothin happend, travelled to and from a couple times without drinking anymore, still nothin, then I noticed that my counter was going up as it is designed to, every minute.

I didn't really get why it wasn't working (possibly because it's not my GH?), at any rate, I returned to Quarrel, drank one and headed to my GH (Burning Isle).

My minutes went up 3.

I went bak to quarrel and tried again, +3 again, I then drank one while in the GH and travelled back, no effect but I waited to see if the timer would take effect and sure enough it went up +1 after a minute, I returned to the GH and got +2.

After this i decided that drinking in Quarrel and then going to GH and back ~repeat, was my best bet (ie. simplest way, im not out to be the fastest nog chugger out there) and set about finishing off my 25 Spiked's, each one worked without fail and with no timing on my part, I just drank and travelled at random for about 10-15 mins before i ran out. (I also had some normal nogs which worked the same when i drank 5 and then travelled.)

I don't have the riches or the boozes to test this anymore atm but I thought it was worth mentioning as I don't think there is any info on Burning Isle GH or for that matter, using an allies GH (though this is relativley unimportant I think) in this guide/thread.

Keep up the good work to all who got involved

Amatz Basin >>> GH: Warriors Isle

ok - i managed to get 500 minutes in 60 minutes actual time mapping from Sifhalla to olafstead between the hours of 20:00Gmt and 21:00Gmt in european district - the window was permanently open - dont know if it would last any longer as i exhausted my supply of spiked eggnogs and other booze

MercenaryKnight · Jan 05, 2008, 11:09 PM // 23:09

For me, I notice that any mapping/ zoning that doesn't include a guildhall generally does not repeat itself every x day at x time. For me I can go to gunnar's hold american district, drink go to europe district and get 3 minutes for hours. Then next week I can't do it at all.

Tois · Jan 20, 2008, 01:17 PM // 13:17

Another strange one for you, currently I can jump from Sifhalla to Olafstead and then to Gunnars it works, yep that's two jumps.. But seems to work fine...

Heretic Angel · Jan 22, 2008, 06:14 PM // 18:14

just zone from olafstead -> gunnars forge to gain 3 minutes, u wont need sifhalla. i finished my title in 3 hours

thank you Dragou for this great thread and a big [email protected]

Witchblade · Jan 22, 2008, 09:00 PM // 21:00

right now, Gunnar Korea -> Europe = instant 3mins

Tois · Jan 30, 2008, 09:34 AM // 09:34

Pleasure Heretic Angel. I'm 3 mins away from the title, having a party this weekend in our Guild hall to celebrate.

Excellent thread, it has really helped me

Navaros · Feb 01, 2008, 01:31 AM // 01:31

Would it be possible for someone to post concrete times and dates on which the specific windows are open?

I see a lot of "I did it here at such and such a time", however, those posts have limited usefulness since they don't work by the time someone reading the posts tries to do it. And there seems to be no clear indication of when those windows will be open again. So then what use does that have to helping the reader of the post use the window too?

I just wanna know the exact times and dates and places when/where I can do this without having to do any guesswork or waste any alcohol. Can anyone provide that?

It still works.

Feathermoore Rep · Feb 01, 2008, 03:52 AM // 03:52

Really? I just tried zoning from Korea -> Euro there and it didn't work.

EDIT - However Gunnar -> Olfsted Euro is working for insta 3 min

The Mountain · Feb 06, 2008, 03:31 AM // 03:31

Got my last 2500 mins up to lvl two zoning from Kamadan American to Kam Euro.
Sorry for not posting earlier, my fellow drunkards.
The window still appears to be open as of 10:30 EST on Super Tuesday.

Navaros, read the dates and times of the posts to see when the windows were open. We can't tell you what the future will be. But, remember that minutes are no longer wasted. If you zone and only have 1 (or even 0) minutes added, your drunk timer does not reset (any more). Even though the graphics disappear, the minutes continue to count.

Lucius2 · Feb 09, 2008, 05:23 PM // 17:23

well i threw in 1 spiked eggnog on jade isle, then i traveled to quarrel falls euro (ger dis) and had + 3minutes, back to gh and always repeated this. worked perfectly, also with other alc and 1 min alc.

assassin of the night · Feb 13, 2008, 02:48 AM // 02:48

assassin of the night · Feb 14, 2008, 12:22 AM // 00:22

A lot of you guys have been saying that you only get 1 minute per spiked eggnog. Some of you guys even say that after several attempts at rezoning that you finally get the other 2 minutes.

Now here is my hypothesis you can only get 1 drunken minute per one alcohol comsumed by using the zoning method. Mind you that you have to be drunk level 3 or above (i think haven't tried the lower levels of drunkness). So the actual schematics goes as follows.

you are at outpost -> drink spiked eggnog -> zone to guild hall within window -> get 1 drunk point -> zone back -> drink regular ale (only gives 1 drunk level) -> zone to guild hall within window -> get 1 drunk point

To describe this phenomena I would say that you can only fastforward 1 drunken minute per alcohol (I don't think you can fastfoward 2 or 3 at a time though). This means that you can fast forward 1 min and then wait around for 2 normal minutes and get the total 3 min of drunk. This explains why some of you only got 1 min per spiked eggnog and after rezoning a whole bunch of times or zoning elsewhere got the remaining 2 min because you actually spent 2 minutes drunk.

Now you can only drink the alcohol in the outpost and zone to the guild hall to get the point (mind you zone within the allowed timeframe). you can't drink in the guild hall and zone back, it just wastes the alcohol. Furthermore changing districts and zoning to other outposts doesn't seem to do anything, but you keep your drunkness.

A quirk i found was that you can:

drink alcohol -> zone to a different outpost -> zone to guild hall in the new outpost's allowed window -> gain 1 drunk point

NOW the disclaimer. This is my hypothesis. I've only tried it out on my account and my sister's account. My sister verified and tried it herself. We have the guild hall isle of solitude (not really sure if guild hall makes a difference). The outpost we used was Ember Light Camp. The time window was the same for both of us from 2 sec to 44 sec using internet time. This didn't seem to change over 2 days day or night. I've tried iron mines of moladune and and Ring of fire and the hypothesis holds true except they had shorter windows. I've also tried kamadan and dasha vestibule and it seems true also (but i think the window for those two is short, was lazy to find the exact time frame and not rich enough to experiment)

Now I'd like some imput from you guys if my theory holds true or if you find or found any quirks. With this method I get 5 points per min or 4 per min leisurely if any you guys know a faster way that really works I'd like to hear it.

Thanks alot guys and hope you hear from you guys soon.
