The ZOOG Zento Hub guide.

This goes along with the hub house thread I made. For those who don't know every Spring through Fall my time in game gets very limited to non existent. In past years I have just dropped the bulk of my Siege houses to free up the spots for anyone that might want to place in those spots. With the coming of the second house on Siege I came back to find dirt plots in many of the places where I would place a house and dirt plots they have remained since that time. So this year I have decided to not drop the houses but make them available for anyone that wants to use them for training, gold farming or resource farming.

Someone last night said I should post a guide to the houses here on Stratics so here is the basic house guide of what each house is good for.

#1. (-=G=- The Ant Pad) is North of Vesper on the very edge of the above ground Solen area. Solen are very good for training up weapon skills and tactics up to 90s and drop ZOOGIE Fungus, Gems, and a decent bit of gold. Mages, mystics and necros can bring them to the porch and wipe out the 7 for the Solen Queen Translocation Powder Quest in about 10 seconds, loot them in relative peace and fill their water pitcher from the house trough before stepping onto the Tele Tile to the "A Hole" house. This house if also a very low level bard training house as you can drag a large audience to the porch for your concert.

#2 (-=104=- The A Hole House) Is located right next to a Solen Hive Entrance hole. The worker ants are great training for lower level characters combat skills and will get you into the 70s pretty fast to get on the ROT. This hole has Blue beetles close by, one of the nest for the Seed quest, and the hole and woods are a great place to mine and lumberjack.

#3. (-=100=- The Wolf Pad) This is hands down my most dangerous house. It has very heavy spawn of Ninjas, Tsuki Wolves and Reapers. Mostly Tsuki Wolves as it is in the Heart of the Tsuki Garden. There are perm placed healers close to the house, a shrine with a ankh to the east and ankh of sacrifice on the porch. THIS IS NOT A HOUSE FOR LOW LEVEL CHARACTERS. There is a soul forge above the sw corner of the porch, this is important because the Wolves, Kazee kimono things, and Ninjas drop a lot of Greaters and Majors to unravel making this the perfect Imbue training house, I have taken 5 toons to 120 imbue from the porch of this house, this is also where I finish up training combat skills to 120. For Gold farming a Disco Mystic dropping RCs are great as are disco Tamers. A GD chews through the wolves fast and a RC can kill 5-7 discoed wolves before having to cast another one. A warrior type needs a Demon Slayer weapon and can farm them fairly quick as well. The Wolves drop 850-1200 gold each, a lot of junk unravel loot, a decent amount of usuable Majors and peculiar seeds, the most useful seed being the Flax seed that makes cotton balls. The sleeping Dragon Champ Spawn is a bit to the west where spined hides can be farmed from the initial spawn. To the North West is Yamadon Point where there is a Yamadon and 2 Rune Beetles. For the sea faring types to the North is the sea and a area full of Dread Pirates and Merch ships. If you want to earn gold fast on Siege and cast RC the Wolf Pad is about the best place.

#4 (-=11=- Pigeon Chit Heights) is in the Wind Maze Mining around the house, ants in the Maze and the City of Wind to the West. Wind (Below in the City) is where I tame greater dragons, farm daemons, mine salt peter in the GZ and farm the liches for necro regs.

#5 (-=13=- Far South House) LOL the former home of Herman Tooth Rot :) Lots of Fishing, a short boat ride away from all of the Southern Islands and a Healthy Pirate population to the South and South West.

#6,#7,#8, #9, #10, #11 Port Tyr Ocrina ISland AKA Port Tyr -=T=- -=01=- -=6=- -=12=- -=1968=- -=102=- This is just my hideout and where I park my ships, LJ, and Fish. Marble Island and Horseshoe island are to the SW and West.

#12 -=YB=- ZOOG Moonglow Office) is where my GZ vendors are when I put them up. Right next to the sea and the Cotton field is right there for cotton picking and vorpal bunny hunting.

#13 (-=99=- HavenHome) Moved from Malas to Ocllo as requested.

#14 (-=101=-) Ter mur Mining and LJ right off the porch, and close to BO :)

#15 (-=001=- Orc Mine) Mining, Salt Peter, mid level combat training, lumber jacking.

#16 (-=10=- The Garden House) Nothing spec about this one other than its where my raised beds are.

#17 (-=14=- The Zento hub house)

I am going to move 3 of the Island houses to farming and training locations next week and will update this with thread with where. Someone also asked if I would add a small rune library to the -=14=- Hub House with cities, Dungeons, and good locations......... I will work on that but it will be a while before I can get it done. In the mean time enjoy the houses and the training and farming available at them.

Reserved for updates.

Moved one of the Island Houses to Destard Entrance. Obviously a more advanced training and taming house :)

Moving 2 other houses when the housing timer is done. will spread things out a bit more to other good hunting houses for lower level characters. Places only a idiot would want to live but are great for training and hunting :)

A big thanks to Sir AJ and the donation of the 13th tile to go with my oddball tile.

A Big Thanks to Becca for the anni tickets!

And thanks to everyone who has donated the Gate scrolls we are up to 2000 scrolls donated and I made 500 to add to the pile. So I will make the tele tiles access to Anyone. When they get low and the scroll stock pile gets low, I will reset them to friends.

Please point folks new to Siege in the hubs direction houses like the Wind house and Island house will help new folks get mining and LJ up in relative peace. Houses like the ant houses are just about the fastest way to get combat and tactics up to 70 and the ROT and build up a gold supply and zoogies to make translocation powder for later or to sell.

While I won't PK anyone using the houses, this is Siege and there may well be PKs that use the Hub. As with every aspect of Siege there is Risk involved.

Yes I am going to rebuild the houses that are dirt plots now. I was in process of doing my summer house drop when the idea hit me to just make my house network public :) Mining houses will have anvils and forges put back and I will put some vendors with low cost training suits, bandaids, etc in the more dangerous houses.

Organized the tele tiles a bit. Combat and training house tiles are on the west wall. Resource and low no spawn houses on the North wall.

6-16-2016 Update added 2 more houses to the Hub

-=102=- Swamphome in the Savage Swampt South of Destard a decent mid level training house with Swamp Critters and savages farther in. Wandering healers tend to be rare any where close by, but can be found to the Northwest (Usually).

-=01=- Firehome is on Fire Island with two wild ant holes close by..... One right beside the porch actually.

Adding 2 other tiles but they will be set to friends only as they go my island keep and Island Craft Hall which I am keeping private :) Can use the -=T=- Warehouse tile to get to the island but it is only good for fishing and lumberjacking :)

06-19-2016 Update: #13 on the list -=99=- has been moved a couple of folks asked if I could put a house on Ocllo since it is on the difficult side for a non mage to get to. It is Done, just a small house with Taming, LJ, Hide Collection, Fishing, and town a small run to the North.

#13 (-=99=- Mining Shack) is by one of the Malas Mining Caves and Grimswind Ruins are a short distance away to the NE. Has been moved to Ocllo by request. Great suggestion by a couple of folks! Put it on the SE side where my ROT Taming house used to be. Can 120 taming there easy with all the Griz Bears and Great Harts. Also a decent place to park a Ship and stock the hold with Lumber.

Impressive work!
Need to arrange the tiles a little bit better and going to replace the recharge tele tiles with Vet tiles when my younger accounts next reward picks come up. Should have 26 picks coming up over the next 3-5 months. LOL can't bring myself to use the five original and oldest accounts picks for tele tiles :) Although Tree Stumps and Mining Carts are tempting to pick with the youngsters.

Just put 2600 Gate scrolls in the mailbox at your Zoog Hub for those rechargables. When I run Mystic/Bard those hubs are nice. :)

My favorite template to play at the wolf house and swamp house is a Bard/Mystic. I must admit I still like provo feeding the plague beast and collecting their chest ;)

And thanks for the scrolls! Those should be enough to keep them charged up for a while. 5 of the tiles have actually been getting a pretty good workout. Someone is doing a lot of T powder or Zoogie COllecting :)

And if anyone is interested I checked a couple weeks ago and there are a few house spots close to the Trinsic Hive Entrance. Nothing really worthwhile at the Liche hive entrance, And few not too far from the minoc hive entrance.

Took down the Destard house and moved it just NW of Safe Haven by a wild ant hole.......... Imagine that :) It is public. The reason being the Savage Swamp house is just a few screens from Destard so no point in having 2 houses in the same general area when one will do. -=12=- Not Quite Safe Haven is updated at the Hub.

The Swamp house is just a few seconds away to the South :) Also someone else mentioned they would like the Destard entrance house. So the plot is open and maybe whomever places it if anyone will put a hub tile there ;)

-=101=- has been relocated from Termur to I believe Bald Island. Several folks asked if I could put a house where there was some good sand mining and Pecker Island errr Bald Island was my first thought. So Sand mine away :)

Going to re arrange the house tiles sometime this week and put them in better order. Combat house tiles on the First floor IE The Wolf and ant houses. Resource/Mining/LJ houses Pigeon Chit Heights and the Sand Shack for example, on the second floor and general houses and my two private houses on the 3rd floor.

We did add a tile to Victims Rune Library on the South Side of Zento.

If anyone would like to add a tile to a house near a dungeon or some place else useful, I will be happy to lock it down and mark it. You will have to provide the tiles though, I am out and am not buying anymore :) If you have another hub house would not mind at all linking our houses with a tile. The easier it is to get around the world......the better IMO.
