== Hints ================================================== Updated: 98/12/16 == Hints are available for all quests from storytelling Bards, for a price. They can be found in the Taverne in Hamelin and at the Old Seadog Inn in Smuggler's Cove. To get a hint, you must have credits in hand, either from killing mobiles or from withdrawing them at the bank (INFO BANK). Go to one of the Bards and type HINT <QUESTNAME>. Hints cost 1 percent in credits of whatever the quest is worth in experience (for example, Cartoon = a 5000 experience quest, so 50 credits per hint), so be sure you're carrying enough money for the hint(s) you want! Hints are given out randomly, you are not guaranteed to get a hint about something that you don't already know about! Sometimes a hint won't be directly about a quest itself, but rather, will tell you about a feature or puzzle in the area around the quest. Read INFO HINTNUM to get a listing of how many hints are available per quest, this should help you determine if you need to buy more or not. A HINT GENERAL feature is available for hints about helpful things not directly related to any quest (currently only 5 credits apiece!). NOTE: A reminder that it against TerraFirmA code of practice to receive any advice on questing other than through the Bard!! (read INFO RULES). So use your friendly Bard wisely! ================================================================================
