Rings of Lumnis Graphic.jpg

The Trials of Lumnis a series of challenges run out of the Needle of Pentas on the Isle of Ornath by the Order of the Lumnasi Viragos. It was formerly available periodically alongside the Rings of Lumnis event, but is now always available. Scholar's cards for entries are available in the SimuCoin store periodically.

Arrival

There are two ways to access the Trials of Lumnis. You may travel to the Sleeping Drake Harbor on the Isle of Ornath via Open Sea Adventures, Portmaster, or MOUNT TRAVEL and locate the Needle of Pentas, or use EVENT TRANSPORT LUMNIS to go directly to the Needle of Pentas once you have redeemed a scholar's card. Returning through the doublewide doors with return you to your point of origin, whether that is returning you to where you used EVENT TRANSPORT or back out into the Sleeping Drake Harbor.

Event Info

Upon arriving at the foyer of the Needle of Pentas, a monk greets you. This is where you obtain your Brooch of Lumnis, which is your reward item. Head upstairs to the Needle of Pentas Apex, at the top of a long flight of stairs. There are five teleportation disks, Planar, Spiritual, Elemental, Chaos, and Order, that will bring you to Liabo. Each section will have a ring you enter which is where the trials take place. This is where you'll need a scholar's card redeemed for event entries and a brooch (the relic). LOOK at the archways, then GO <type of stone> BALCONY, then enter the teleportation disk to transport to the puzzle area. With your scholar's card redeemed, enter a ring in any of the rooms to start a puzzle.

You are awarded an increment to your brooch upon entering the puzzle area, win, lose, or surrender. The increment is only good for the "ring" you're entering. For example, entering Planar will increment the Planar benefit by +1. If you want to increment the Elemental benefit, you'll need to visit the Elemental "ring" to try your knowledge (and maybe luck) there. Successfully completing both puzzles and trivia will award a prize on top of the experience. The common prize will be lightening notes. The uncommon prize will be deepening notes of different varieties. And a rare prize will be an RPA orb. If you have a free hand, it will be delivered right to you. If you don't, it will be on the ground. Hopefully they are both entertaining and challenging as well.

For additional help in completing the various puzzles and trivia found within the trials, please visit Research:Rings of Lumnis - SPOILERS.

To exit the puzzle area, find the teleportation disk and go through it, then move in the only obvious direction, which ends up back at the Needle of Pentas, Apex.

Alabaster, carnelian, aventurine, onyx, and azurite tiles form half circles upon the floor, their open-ends facing matching half-circle archways that lead towards illuminated balconies.
