Ok, where to begin?
Well I'm a new player to Pandora. Been playing for around about 8 years in total though. Used to play OSI, until they nerfed Bush/Ninja dexxers back in ML. Shortly after that I found myself on the free-shard circuit.
One thing I've found with the "BEST" freeshards so far is the shard information, some have a dedicated Content DB hosted on their site, some have a locked forum section dedicated to it.
Although Pandora seems to lack this. There is a section with help/guides, but that's not what I'm referring to.
It would be nice to see a section dedicated to GM/Admin posts, with information about the shard. How the ToT system works, Doom arties, custom spawns, Teamspeak address, a link to a dedicated download of the client needed for Pandora, with links to Razor.
I do have one main question, and I have looked for the answer but been unable to find it.....
Is the use of 3rd party programs such as EASYUO permitted on this server, and if so, under what capacity? Am I allowed to multi-box? Am I allowed to un-attend resource gather (most free-shards allow this, but only in fel, to allow afk gathering PK'able)
I have soo many questions, and the information is quite scattered. Would one of the Admin be willing to take up the task of compiling all the shard specific information into one place?
P.S. How does the ToT system work?
I am the owner here and I agree with you 100%
We are in the process of working on a Wiki for the shard.
But the players here are nice and will help you with anything you need
Welcome to Pandora
o, ok, good to see that it's being taken care of.
Thanks for the fast reply, but in the mean time, how do the ToT drops work on here, I read that's it's different to other shards, but couldn't find out how :S
P.S. Thank you for providing this shard, so far it looks very professional and well thought out. I look forward to playing with this "no skill cap" instead of the 720 I'm used to. It feels a bit weird to tell the truth :P
Every day of the week you are able to get Treasures of Tokuno (ToTs) by killing the monsters inside of the Yomotsu Mines and Fan Dancer Dojo. Both of these areas are PVP. On Tuesdays you are able to hunt anywhere in Tokuno, which is a non-PVP facet. However, whether or not it is Tuesday, ToTs are only available when the stone outside of the Dojo or Mines is green.
Once you have ten lesser ToTs, you may turn them in to Ihara Soko inside of Makoto Zento for a random greater ToT.
Edit: As per our shard rules:
"c. When performing the following activities, you must not be away from keyboard: killing spawn (regular or champions), gathering wealth while AFK."
The bolded part means you may gather resources such as wood and ore, but may NOT set up macros to sell any items to vendors while AFK. You may also run a separate account dedicated to gathering resources if you so choose, so long as it is not violating our "3 accounts per person" rule.
Our Ventrilo information is listed both on the forums and the main page of the website. We do not have Teamspeak.

this shard does need a wiki, cos of all the sweet custom content! i'd happily contribute to it where i could.
and it's 5 accounts max.
"1. Accounting:
a. You can have multiple accounts (up to 3) allowed per IP (for multiple people in a household also)."
It also says 3 right on the main page of the website.
