Ok so.... the test to become Ranger...
If you ask me it is the most rediculously stupidest quest I have ever seen... it's pure luck if you find the poring in time to kill it....
Best I've managed is 14... which majourly pissed me off...
Why oh why is the test sooooooooooooooooo painfullllllllllll
could there be like more time given before the porings go poof..... or perhaps a lower score requirement..... or not get deducted for hitting the other monsters... or something??????????
Or put the flute up for sale so that instead of wasting hours trying to do the quest cause I HAVE to to get the wolf I can just go change and get into testing..... =/
though if you ask me... changing the quest would be better...... that way when I go to do it on Ymir I don't have the same headache I'm getting now... seriously... I don't think this test is fun.... makes me feel like deleting my sniper =/

Search for the other thread on this. Based on the name of the poring on the northmost island, you can tell which island the correct poring is.

Hm.. I did kinda notice a pattern on this, but didn't catch on to it.. I was able to read all the poring monsters each round, sometimes miss 1-2 though. (Failed the 1st time too.) But I agree, it is a bit fast. They should take into consideration that not everybody are speed readers and possibly the issue of lag to take into account.

yea I did read that thread but that didn't help me at all...
I haven't been able to notice any kind of pattern that the porings have
I can only get hmm... 4 sometimes 5 of the monsters.. I have never gone over every monster and if I've gone over 5 and found the poring as the 5th... it self explodes before I can hit it.

Try this that someone posted. Got it the first time when using this. Just copy it to notepad and put it next to your RO window.

If the monster spawned on north island is called Poring, then just hit it.
If it's Podaegi on the north island, then the Poring is on northeast island. (â??) and etc.
Poporing, east. (â??)
Poja, southeast. (â??)
Pororing, south. (â??)
Drops, southwest. (â??)
Hoing, west. (�)
Poing, northwest. (â??)

I wish they would have handled that part of the quest differently like making it require skill, yet having it be logical at the same time, like making the monsters names permanently visible below them or making you kill a certain colored poring out of the different ones, etc. Now it just comes down to following a guide that's almost fool proof.
