Curse

Draygo Korvan · May 05, 2006, 07:31 PM // 19:31

I am placing a bounty on the boss carrying the skill "Assassin's Promise", In order to collect you must be the first to discover where the boss carrying this skill spawns (Not including exclusive missions like Luxon/Kurzick elite missions). His name, his location (A description at minimum, a map would be good), and his type (Am Fah, Vermin, Afflicted etc) are required to collect. A photo of this boss would be preferred.

The bounty at this point is 20k which will be paid when the information is verified by me. If you would like to increase the bounty on this evil criminal you may do so at your own will, just post below the amount you would pay and who to collect it from after the information is verified.

He is wanted for extreme amounts of property damage as well as being a prime suspect in the killing of Canthan citizens (and getting away with it, completely un-noticed). He has ignored all summons and eluded any arrest attempt. Any assistance tracking down this vile criminal will be appreciated. All that is known at this point is that this criminal has the assassin's aura, and uses the skill "Assassin's Promise".

Before you guys go check: This skills capture location is currently unknown on all website resources I have checked including guildwiki, here, and http://www.xennon.co.uk/eliteskills/ as well as many fansite forums. I am not dumb, I wouldn't be offering the bounty if someone else already discovered it. Notices in towns have only produced at best false leads.

IGN- Draygo Korvan (add to friends, most likely I will be playing an alt).

After the information is verified, all information to assist future players in locating the boss will be posted on guild-wiki. Good luck.

UPDATE:
The skill has been found and the bounty was given out, skill location is now listed on guild wiki:

I know that a lot of the assassin monsters use that skill when you're fighting your way up to the last mission with Shiro in it (Imperial Sanctum). You might check those map areas and see. There's definitely an assassin boss (in with a bunch of other bosses) in the Divine Path map right near the end.

Yeah, the Raisu Palace mission has one assassin boss... but during us killing it I never saw it use an elite, and I forgot my cap sig. I'm stupid.

MelechRic · May 05, 2006, 09:57 PM // 21:57

I find that when a bunch of non-boss monsters in an area are using an elite it usually means that the boss monster of that type will have that elite. This of course is just annecdotal, but it's been holding true for me through most of the game.

I'd seriously check the Divine Path again.

Draygo Korvan · May 06, 2006, 03:00 AM // 03:00

Shiro'Ken Assassins use Shround of Silence, and so does that boss.

Divine Path has no enemies.

demon dantes · May 06, 2006, 04:47 AM // 04:47

well it could b the one mission were the boss is the last thing u kill off the top of my head don t know name of missions but we killed the boss i hit capture and a cini popped up and i never got to see what he had

OrangeArrow · May 06, 2006, 06:05 AM // 06:05

I think the Assassin's Promise boss along with the Psychic Instability, Heal as One, Coward, and Whirling Axe boss are having a tea party somewhere and we are not invited

.

I say wait for update Patch and dont worry about it.

Draygo Korvan · May 07, 2006, 08:23 PM // 20:23

Well you have Vizu, but Visu doesnt have assassins promise either and you get temple strike in the tunnels mission.

Yea i'm working on my ritualist for now.

ultimastrike · May 13, 2006, 06:04 AM // 06:04

When you go back to the temple after the end of the game, the spirits all say new things. However, I haven't been able to figure out if that has anything to do with Assassin's Promise.

VGJustice · May 13, 2006, 07:53 AM // 07:53

I have this sinking susspision that Assassin's Promise is held by an Oni that is in a wierd spot. Just a hunch, nothing concrete, but there you have it.

ultimastrike · May 13, 2006, 08:10 AM // 08:10

SPOILER ALERT!

Someone suggested that since Shiro got banished to the underworld, you might be able to go down there and find him, and that he might have Assassin's Promise. It's completely a rumor, but maybe someone could check it out just the same.

Burton2000 · May 13, 2006, 09:01 AM // 09:01

I have cleared the entire forest and the boss is no where to be found. I'm moving onto the Jade sea now in hopes of finding him.

thunderpower · May 13, 2006, 09:54 AM // 09:54

ANET said that in the last update they put some new bosses in the forest/jade sea.

This means people have to start and chart everything again for the skill. I mean missions, maybe some quests (might be a quest only boss right now).

It crossed my mind a few times that the boss might be available in one of the elite missions... If so... ANET you suck.

ultimastrike · May 13, 2006, 09:35 PM // 21:35

I have spoken to various people in both alliances that have access to elite missions. They all said that there are no "bosses" in the missions, only named people that you cannot cap from.

I re-explored the entirety of Cantha in the past couple days, and no Assassin's Promise. I think we should start thinking outside the box on this one.

CyberNigma · May 14, 2006, 09:23 AM // 09:23

I explored all of Echovald after the announcement and Jade Sea prior. I did go back after the announcement and capped Coward and Whirling Axe fomr bosses in the Jade Sea. They are listed on guildwiki (someone else put them there). I checked Raisu Palace and didn't see any bosses that weren't listed. I explored all of Harvest Temple (Explorable), even ran into the other side's Unwaking Waters through the guard at the back gate. There is an assassin oni boss in Harvest Temple but he does not have Assassin's Promise. It is the only assassin skill that I don't have right now. There was an assassin at the very end of Eternal Grove (mission) but he was the last to die (preventing us from capping his elite). I didn't see his elite before the mission ended. On that note, missions should give a Mission Ending in 10 Seconds spill so that you can cap your elite from the end bosses if you need to. That's pretty lame to miss it because of the mission end.

Haggard · May 14, 2006, 10:26 AM // 10:26

There's a huge Oni boss at the end of the Raisu palace mission, which I think is what previous posters were referring to.

EDIT: and that is a VERY good idea cyber, I'd suggest putting it in sardelac

Burton2000 · May 14, 2006, 11:19 AM // 11:19

Well i finished going through the whole jade sea and he does not exist.Either anet hasnt put him in or hes somewhere totally different,like in kaeing city,but i doubt that.

Heal as One, Whirling Axe and Psychic Instability have been found, locations on GuildWiki.

Pages on "Coward!" and Assassin's Promise aren't loading there, not sure if anyone has found 'em yet. Certainly not Assassin's, I don't think.

Aarroe of Gilgamesh · May 14, 2006, 11:22 AM // 11:22

i see this becoming another oops on a-net's part, there are just too many people looking for this skill. either that or no one has ever seen this skill, because it is on a fluffy toon like a scuttle fish somewhere. for my part i've mapped quite a bit of ground, 83% map complete on necro, and 60+% on assassin(who has not even finished the eternal grove mission, or done any exploring in the luxon area) and not seen this boss.

If it was on a quest only cap, they would have to put it elsewhere. Otherwise, that would just suck if you've done all the quests and now you can't get it because of that.
