Travel Warnings and Public Announcements

What are ThoomCare's Travel Warnings and Public Announcements?

Travel Warnings are issued when ThoomCare decides, based on all relevant information, to recommend that exiles avoid travel to a certain area.

Public Announcements are a means to disseminate information about areas that are not dangerous enough to warrant a Travel Warning, but may pose a significant risk to exiles.

Current Travel Warnings

The recently-discovered pathfinder areas in and around the Mid-Pass and Greymyr Village area

ThoomCare healers have found that many exiles have fallen in the pathfinder areas that have recently been discovered near the mountain passes and the Greymyr Village. These areas are much more dangerous than the surrounding passes, since the Elder Wendeckas are protective of the Baby Wendeckas, and they have been known to throw pebbles at exiles who threaten the babies. Since these areas have been discovered only recently, they are not well known to most healers and mystics, and this can make locating fallen exiles in these locations difficult for most healers and mystics. Finally, the number of creatures that inhabit these areas make chain rescues difficult even for experienced Catenae members. All of this adds up to a recipe for disaster for the unwary exile.

Noted zoologist Dr Jane Thoomall, author of the award-winning paper "Wendeckas in the Mist," has attempted to learn more about the elder and baby wendeckas by spending time in their habitat, but she has not been heard from for many zodiacs. We fear the worst.

Therefore, ThoomCare recommends that all exiles avoid travel to these areas.

Current Public Announcements

The beach south and west of the Sylvan Scout, commonly known as "Kitty Beach"

"Kitty Beach" has proved to be a popular hunting ground for newer exiles. Due to its proximity to town and common spawns of Island Panthers and Artak Cougars, many fighters choose to hunt on Kitty Beach without the aid of a healer. Unfortunately, this has led to many exiles being fallen on Kitty Beach for significant amounts of time while waiting for a healer to arrive.

ThoomCare recommends that all fighters who choose to hunt on Kitty Beach bring a healer along to avoid this situation. If healers are not available, ThoomCare recommends you inform a local mystic of your hunting plans before you leave in case disaster strikes.
The Northwest Forest

The Northwest Forest is a popular hunting ground for mid-level exiles and groups of newer exiles. Fur-bearing creatures are common in this area in large numbers. ThoomCare healers have noticed that these creatures are especially numerous at night, leading to dangerous hunting conditions for most exiles. Groups of up to 12 Artak Cougars have been seen roaming the Northwest Forest on some nights recently, and in some cases, ThoomCare healers have been trapped in the safe cave by the sheer number of vermines and felines in the forest.

ThoomCare recommends that newer exiles avoid the Northwest Forest at night, unless they are with an experienced group.
