Be nice if there were actual easter egss posted.

interesting tidbits are a start

Cantha still requires more exploration before we find something really hidden.

I dunno if this counts, but I found a "hidden" quest in Haigu Lagoon. You go to the village there and listen to him tell his story about a Bog Monster or something that takes 2-5 minutes to tell. After this he asks you to kill it.

Just thought Id pass this on, as the first few times walking past him I didnt feel like listening

I believe it has elements of "spirit fingers" from the movie "Bring it On" as well...

Battle Priest Calib in Zos Shivros Channel Challenge Mission says "it's a good day to die", Warcraft 2 cheatcode for god mode.

Dont forget about the "Raise the roost" quest in the skyway that it basicaly a stab at how Early settlers jipped the Native American's out of land and such.

actually, like many of the duplicate Factions skills (Teinai's Heat, Karei's Healing Circle, etc.), it's named after one of the legendary Canthan heroes whose spirits you free during the Tahnnakai Temple mission

From the SciFi series 'Farscape'...

D'argo is from the Luxan race. And the main character is named Crichton (pronounced Krytan).

The Boreas Seabed mission makes a Gladiator allusion "We who are about to die salute you" but instead they say something slightly different. x.x

That's because that's an incredible stretch and is most likely a coincidence.

The Red Frog(quest) is a south park reference, iirc.

Drunken Master quest could be a reference to Jade Empire's Drunken Style fighting(but this could be true of many other things as well).

my memory's a little fuzzy but the quest "Street Justice" was in GrandTheftAuto: San Andreas.

Quest: The Missing Link.. can be a reference to the missing link in the scientific exploration of human evolution.

Its all i could think of. :P

Imperial Guardsman Ranthoh (or Rantoh) = our very own super-warrior Racthoh.

Re: drunken master

One of Jackie Chan's first movies was Drunken Master in which he trains in the "Eight Drunken Gods" style of kung fu.

Drunken Master = Bo' Rai Cho, from Mortal Combat!

I'd sign a petition to change Yuun [Quickshot Henchman] to Yuun [Headshot Henchman]

Boom Headshot!
