Threads of Fate

This mechanic is mainly used to get Suspicious Herb Pouches or Mineral Pouches .

From the herb pouches , you can get crafting materials like Juniper Berry Seed Oils which are used to craft Wealth Acquisition Potions and EXP Acculumation Potions . You can also get materials to make stat pills with.

From the mineral pouches , you can get crafting materials which are useful for levelling up your Smithing/Accessory Crafting profession.

Opening Threads of Fate​

  1. Click the white lightbulb on the left hand side
  2. Select [Threads of Fate] Unravelling the Threads of Fate
    1. Clicking My Level Range the bottom right will reduce the amount of quests displayed

Prerequisites​

  1. Unlock at least 2 NPCs (Pre-quest guide)
  2. Have at least 2 NPCs unlocked both with 70 closeness
    1. Personally, I recommend Takeno and Kurama as their gift items are easy to obtain (Elixirs and Arrows)

How To Obtain The Right Ask​

The way your Ask resets is that at the first Ask that is started with any NPC will cause the trigger for the reset. This means that if you had something like "Go Dig" as your Ask for NPC A prior to reset, then after reset if you start another Ask with them again then the Ask will change to something else and then be displayed in the dialogue. So to roll for the correct Ask the process is:

  1. After reset, start the first Ask of the reset period with any of the NPCs.
    1. If it doesn't roll the correct Ask, then repeat Step 1 again.
    2. If it rolls the correct Ask, then you're done and you can spam it for the rest of this reset period.
caution

Read the next section, to continue being able to easily spam Ask while retaining your Ask beyond each reset.

How To Spam Ask​

As of v235, the current way to spam Ask without triggering the reset is:

  1. After reset, start an Ask with the NPC that does not have the right Ask.
    1. This will trigger the reset on that NPC
  2. Log out
  3. Start an Ask with the NPC that has the right Ask.
  4. Do your 5 desired Ask

Do NOT change channels, go into Cash Shop, or do anything that will change you channel from the one you started your Ask on. If you do, then your reward will go from whatever you wanted to mesos instead.

Closeness​

Wiki page

Closeness determines the quantity of the rewards you receive. For the pouches, you can get 1 pouch per 5 closeness of the NPC you Ask. Closeness maxes out at 100, so the maximum amount of pouches you can get per Ask is 20.

Closeness per NPC decays weekly on Monday 12:00 AM UTC.

  1. 70+ closeness: 15 points will be reduced
  2. 50 ~ 69 closeness: 10 points will be reduced
  3. Below 50 closeness: 5 points will be reduced
