Do the NK/SRo gypsies need to be killed/reset for the Iceclad scrolls to show up?


From Velious release:

December 4 and 5, 2001,

Light Race Velious Spells:
For the light races, you can find your Iceclad Gate and Iceclad Portal in the gypsy camp in North Karana. Look for the male vendor, 'Roule'.


Velious Spells for Sale:
Spent the evening looking for Velious spells and so far, only Iceclad Gate and Iceclad Portal have been for sale on the dark elf vendor, Smith Tv`ysa at the tents in South Ro. Besides these spells, the only thing I've seen changed is the new dock in North Ro with the little gnome pirate, 'Frankel the Pirate' that will speak to you. Off to continue looking for vendors the light races can purchase from... I'll report here in the news if I come up with anything.


Wizard Spells:
Besides the Iceclad Portal and Gate being for sale in the mainlands, the only spell I could find for sale in Velious was O'Keils Flickering Flame (Level 34, Damage Shield by 6, Increase Fire Resist by 10). Easiest way to get it is to gate into Iceclad Ocean (Iceclad Gate or Portal), use Abscond to take you to the docks, exit the dock and turn left, following the waters edge until you can see the igloos up on the hill. Inside one of the igloos, you will find a gnome in a bright blue robe named Xorbinasticalus Zimralicus (+4631.04, +1315.80, +73.88). He sells it for about 4pp.


Wizard and Druid GD, WL, and CS portals should not be available for a while except as drops from level appropriate mobs.

Skyshrine Vendor Patched:
Just a while ago, Skyshrine went down for some patching. It looks like the Great Divide portal has been put on the vendor! There are four portals available to purchase now: Great Divide, Wakening Lands, Cobalt Scar, and Iceclad. If you don't know how to get there, check yesterday's news for the map.

Portal Vendor To Be Patched:
Ya, but when? You ask. Well, Ester the Tester posted about it, there's no definite date on when it will be patched with the correct spell of Great Divide Portal instead of Iceclad. Here's her quote from the Bug Board -

There was a problem unfortunately and the spell was missed
It will be fixed the next time we patch data... that is the best I can do sorry =(
Even though they blew it, I can at least respect Ester for replying.
The bummer is that there is no set date for the next patch. Rumors are up to 3 weeks out. Ouch!

Skyshrine Portal Vendor:
Yesterday, Verant introduced our vendor to the world that supplies us with our Velious portal spells. However, there are a couple issues with this vendor.

The vendor carries 3 portals.. but not the correct three. It seems that instead of putting the Great Divide Portal on the vendor, Iceclad Portal is in it's place. So the three portals the vendor carries are Wakening Lands, Cobalt Scar, and Iceclad.
Many are having faction issues with this vendor, resulting in not being able to purchase. If this is the case, the quick fix is to find someone with good faction to buy your spells for you or bring an enchanter or bard to correct the issue.

From the same link to Graffe in earlier post, entry dated January 22, 2001,

These are the three portals that druids can purchase from the vendor outside of the Plane of Growth in Wakening Lands. Supposedly we have a vendor in Velious somewhere too. The spells we are not looking for are Iceclad Portal and Iceclad Gate. Those two can be purchased from gypsy vendors on the mainlands in Rathe Mountains, North Karana, and South Ro.

WHAT UPDATE? PLEASE oops, what update? Cuz atm wizards are all giantly screwed. Druids have all their port spells, and Wizards can't even get the Iceclad one?!?! Like screw the original timeline, if it's already messed up, we ONLY have two things Verant let us do anyway, so you're screwing us on the "Now you're here" part.?

And "they drop" so you are letting our fantastic morals virgins of p99 decide to wax wizards over the head for basic port spells? Some guy tried to charge me 5k for Portal to CS... as if he's never going ti need a ride there?!?! I mean come ON! PLEASE, WE ARE BEGGIN YOU to fix this right. Just please open the vendor in SS, like on Red. (ps... Red?! really?)

Sincerely
"days frustrated hanging onto faith"

Druid WL, CS, GD portals were added to WL vendor in the January 17, 2001 patch. (See below.) Verant/SOE claimed the wizard vendor existed at the same time, but was not actually added to game until January 24, 2001. (See links above.)

(1/18) ***The Velious Druid portals are for sale by a vendor in WL and POG!!! Don't buy them from players!

Not sure about this guy's claim on ancient wurms. Saw some other comments that they could drop spells too.

OK,
These are the locations of the new spells:

1. Iceclad gate/ports: SRo DE gypsies.
2. 1 or 2 each of the new spells for each class: Gnome camp in Iceclad.
3. Cleric(and possibly paladin) spells: Chapel in Thurgadin.
4. So far as anyone has been able to determine, the only place the rest of
the spells drop is:

Camping the GUARDIAN wurms in the wurm tunnel near Thurgadin. I camped these
guys one of the first days, and yes, the spells did only drop off the
guardians. Ancients and Elders do NOT drop spells, at least not as long as
we were there. An uberguild came in and killed the BroodMother, and she
didn't drop spells. I got WL portal and Enticement of Flame(SWEET spell) in
just a couple hours, along with a couple other spells, Pal and Necro.

Two spawns for the whole dang server...typical Verant. Be forewarned that
this location is now very likely to be evercamped by your server's
uberguilds, for precisely this reason.


The Druid's Grove has thread titles saved @ Archive.org, unfortunately the individual thread links don't work, but we can glean enough info just from the titles to know that these portals were not previously available on vendors. Dates quoted are dates of last comment in the thread.

In P99, they drop off ancient wurms. Confirmed
