HODEMIMES QUEST GUIDES
BRIDGE OVERHAUL REQUEST (FIND RUBBLES)
HODEMIMES BLUE SHARK EXTERMINATION REQUEST
———————————————————
HODEMIMES BLUE SHARK EXTERMINATION REQUEST Guide by Sirshatterstar
Level Requirement: CLV 08 Start NP: Misha Berardini
Talk to Misha Berardini and she will ask for you to Eliminate 7 Hodemines Blue Shark and to search for a stone on the seabed. The fastest way to go to Shart coast is to go out of Hodemines and go to the nearest Wing of Wind (guard). Teleport to Hodemines Harbor and swim to Shark coast which is a few seconds from where you are.
Kill seven (7) Blue Shark and loot them. The stone that you are searching for is lying on the seabed. Just search for it underwater. What you’re searching for is “clickable” so it’s not that hard to find. It usually is located near the harbor. Once your through, report back to Misha to get your reward.

HODEMIMES NETWORKS IN EMIR CAVE Guide by help4pro2
this is a quest wherein Hodemimes Village will ask you to contact all their networks inside emir cave. pls be reminded that its not a really hard quest, it will be easy enough if you have the tactics.^^
when you enter the Emir Cave just follow the path way to Vadon-Z(avoid entering level2, this quest is all about level1) and there you will find the 5Stations wating for you. they look like a Mailbox in the town. here i posted the screen shots on where you can locate the thing they call “Hodemimes Network”.
Im sorry i cant locate it on the main map because i still dont have a map of Emir Cave but you can recognize them on your minimap anyways… Put in mind that there are 5stations(A,B,C,D,E) but only A(1st station) is what you are looking for first, you can’t go to B,C,D,E if the quest is looking for the 1st station… after going to A, there will be a chain quest and will tell you to look for B, then so on… untill E. (for short, all stations must be located in order A-E)
After E, the last thing you will have to do is Kill Vadon-z(lvl14 boss) and be lucky enough to make it drop Vadon-Z’s Machine Parts(final part of the quest)… then you are done, you can go back to Hodemimes and report to Morrigan(mayor) to get a total of 2k+CExp
have fun!^^
———————————————————
On this quest, you will start off with Shelpy and then she will ask you to talk to four NPCs.
Talk to Averro Reinhold, Talk to Klaret Natali, Talk to Misha Berardini and Talk to Zarko Ruzzoli.
After talking to the NPCs, you will then be asked to Investigate the Entrance of the Cave of Emir. If you’re inside the village of Hodemines, go to the teleported located near the exit of the village and teleport to the Cave of Emir. Once you arrived on the cave, you will automatically finish the investigation.
Next you need to learn the Secrest of three Hodemines NPCs. If you’re new to the game, you will get have a hard time doing this quest since you don’t have any idea what this secrets are so here’s what you need to do.
Klaret Natali’s Secret: Go to the shop of Klaret Natali and behind her, on the left side, there is a sack (bag) on the floor. This bag is clickable. Click on it and loot the content. You just found Klaret’s secret.
Zarko Ruzzoli’s Secret: Go to the shop of Zarko and behind him, on the right side, there is a scroll lying on the ground. Click on it and loot the content. You just found Zarko’s secret.
Misha Berardini’s Secret: Now this one is a bit hard to find coz her secret is not located on Hodemines village. Go to the bridge that connects the place of the bandits and the mermen (merman). Swim on the sea infested with Be Chased Mermaids. Swim SOUTH until you’re almost at the end of the map. There lying on the seabed (underwater) is a giant CONCH shell. You can’t miss it coz it’s too big for a shell. lol. Click on the shell and loot the content. You’re done with your quest. COngratulations!

Grinding spots:
7-9: Bluish green bandits hangout.
Note: They are easy to kill with relatively low gear and skill but give out good xp. Best of all, they drop lvl 10 novice equipment that you can not buy in stores. Amongst other things, they drop earings, necklaces, belts and a panoply of headgear. For first timers, this will also be a good spot to make your fist couple of zenny and if you are lucky, much more.
10-12: Merman island.
Merman island is an excellent spot for both a novice or newly changed job class. Mermen are harder to kill then BGB but will drop lvl 2 red potions regularly letting you keep ahead of the curve. They also drop gear for every job at lvl 10 once again this is gear you can not buy in stores only AH. Unlike BGB this is where you will gain a lot of money. I easely broke past 20 zenny by selling various drops in AH while taking what I needed as gear. It can get a little troublesome finding the right gear for your job but it is usually worth the wait. Expect to see some aquamarine and a couple of agues drop eventually. By lvl 12, your job should be able to kill them with no trouble even take 2 at once, unless you are a novice.
PS: I staid till lvl 13 just for all the drops.

Prontera Grinding spots:
Hodemimes was a great place to introduce you to the world of Ragnarok online and it is there you should have experimented with various jobs and skills. Hopefully by now you know where you are going but unfortunately, grinding in Hodemimes stops once you reach level 13 since grinding in Caves of Emir is not a mart idea (Lots of aggro and bugs). You could get to level 14 by grinding on merman and finishing all the quest until lvl 15 but if you are anything like me, you will feel that questing is a waste of time and you will want to fight monsters again and again.
South of Prontera: 13-14
Great, you now have gotten at lvl 13 or 14 for the more perseverant ones and want to level some more, head to Prontera via the Hodemimes harbor or ask an NPC to warp you there, save your way point in Prontera and head south for the exit. Once you out on Prontera south field you will notice some old favorite ones such as lunatics and Porings but don’t bother with those, keep going down until you reach a billboard and find yourself some “midgar gray mouse” these guys will be hard to fight at first and they don’t give enough XP for their difficulty but more then compensate with a good drops and a lot of weapon XP. Even if you started at lvl 14 you will want to get a weapon lvl here. Expect to find a cuple of moonstones, headgear items and bleu gear.
Note: on your board there is a grinding quest involving these, take it.
South of Prontera: 14-15
Now that you fraught off these mince its time for some fast lvling, head south of the mince near the beach, you will find a rest station and some Potemkin. The Potemkin bugs are a fast kill especially with skills that ignore armor, they don’t drop equips as often but still offer good drops. You can find some quest involving them but I suggest you do them after you get your lvl as most of the quests will require you to walk around town, and we don’t want that.
South of Prontera: 15-16
You have a load of choices, south of Prontera is filled with monsters from lvl 14 to 16 just waiting to fall at your blade. Head south west near the south west exit, you will find White sheep, Milk Cow, Spore and Dospore (spores uglier more toxic cousin). you should experiment with what monster your class is beast suited for, Milk cows are good for anyone using ranged damage even though I found my thief to be dealing them a whole lot of damage. Dospore are good for close combat classes who can take some hits like the swordsman, try taking on the higher lvl ones (lvl 16).
note: if neither of these suits your taste, you have a beach full of long Vadon and marines but be prepared to use some red potions since these guys have good dodge and deal high damage.
