Observations after completing the Uleguerand Range[]

The waterfall opened up when the weather moved from double ice to cloudy, which is still weather. I'm guessing clear, cloudy, and no weather all open the tunnel.

After reading the quick and detailed instructions I wasn't sure where to find the Geomagnetic Fount. I'm hoping this additional information will help in finding the area.

  • Upon entering I was at the 18:00 position and headed counter clockwise (17:00, 16:00, 15:00, etc). Keeping sneak and invis up help avoid unwanted fights, though some true sight monsters do exist on the way.
  • I continued on around to the 09:00 position, which is at G-8.
  • Continue into the tunnel and enter the area to the East at G/H-8.
  • The frozen waterfall is on northern side.
  • While waiting for the weather to clear, I was able to occupy my time by clearing Ice Elementals and Akselloak.
  • Once in the tunnel, you'll found additional.
  • The Geomagnetic Fount is to the North and is on the left hand side of the tunnel.

That's it! :-) --IBHalliwell (talk) 10:29, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

Nexus Cape and this quest....[]

Using the Nexus Cape is outstanding! If someone you know (friend, relative, linkshell member, etc) can get to the Geomagnetic Fount, you can "piggy back off" of him/her using your Nexus Cape. You need to remember the character using the Nexus Cape must have been in the area at least once (just stepping in counts) and you can only use the cape every 20 hours.

In my case, I have a mule (on another POL account) for whom I'm doing the Middle Lands Investigation quest. As my main character already found all of the Geomagnetic Fount points (on his own without help, BTW), he can teleport there and the mule using a Nexus Cape can follow him. It my case, I used it for Attohwa Chasm (took us to within 13 Yalms or so of the Geomagnetic Fount. I hope to also use it for the Uleguerand Range, which as you can tell from a previous comment I took my main character there successfully. Based upon my experience all the other locations are easy enough to get to simply by getting there without the 20 hour recharge wait of the Nexus Cape. --IBHalliwell (talk) 06:04, May 31, 2014 (UTC)
