Yeah, some hint to the general vinicity of objects for the quest would be nice. I recall the quest description as "somewhere" to the south, but how far south, I did not know. I was able to do a region shout and ask about the where about of this amber, and luckily for me, another player come to my rescue and point me in the right direction.

IIRC the beng amber can be found near the southern most cliff immediate south (and a little to the east) of the southwest town on Refugee island.

Hope you find it. Good luck!

You should send an email to support for your forum login. I think this has happened to a few other people as well, because of a recent malcontent haxor messing up the site.

Since I'm stuck in this task, I cannot get others. So can someone please point me to where I can find this material, please? I started in the village in the middle of the map.
Uck, sorry - in my forthcoming walkthrough I'd advise you to skip the harvest quest as it becomes a pain to find exactly what they want. The only things worth really doing on the opening welcomer quest are the fight part and the magic part; the craft and harvest part are big time and sp wasters.

You can, however, still accept missions from the corporals and overseers, although given you lose money on every overseer mission now stick with the corporals. :)

DoctorFun:

1) On the Log-In issue, keep in mind the following because I'm sure it accounts for a lot of these problems.

Nevrax requires lowercase for the username and uppercase for the password. That's how I remember it, but the true requirement may simply be a single lower or a single upper for each part.

What I'm saying is ... most people try to create a Username and the password, after a few failed tries, they just hit the Capslock and create the password that way.

SOOOOooo.... what that probably means is that say you like to use doc as username and Medic1 as password. Well in Ryzom is it doc and MEDIC1 and it is case sensitive. The same must go for the forum. This is probably what is happening to you. So check that out, else you need customer service.

2) On the Welcomer Quests. I found that the second animal to kill in melee is a mistake to do right away, you need to get a few levels first in either fight or melee (more than 5 most likely to be safe). My guess is that it is the same in the other skillsets such as Harvesting etc. In other words, don't continue immediately with the next step in the Welcomer Quest, if so you will be banging your head against the wall in all likelihood. Best to in fact start to ignore him after you have made your first item, solved the first harvesting request, made the first Yubo kill, etc. I'm not even sure you get a reward from the Welcomer's Quest. It seems to me it is meant to simply get you familiar with the Newbie Areas and in increments suggesting leveling at least 5 levels in the field required in the interim. Personally, after a few chars trying that I said, to heck with Welcomer.

Just so you know.

As far as I know you are not stuck in it; you just need to abandon the mission in the missions window (should be j to bring it up) but that might abandon the whole thing so that you have to redo it all from the start :-/
