So i heard before Pixies can appear in the present if you do a certain quest enough and alot of people have to do it. but I've never seen one until now just floating around in the mountains.. i had to double check where the hell i was to make sure i wasn't in the past lol..

Don't know if there was another post about this

Anyone else seen pixies in the present?

I have a horrible feeling they're gonna get killed off very quickly in the present thanks to low level ignorance and/or elitest stupidity/troll-ness.

They starting to appear more Frequently now. I think because of the last trial for the 15% cure potency staff, Trial 833 or something?

I saw one in Buburimu on Sylph yesterday, and it's still around. But it's only one pixie and it apparently roams the entire zone. (as confirmed by Wide Scan and /follow) It checked as IT to a level 18 or so.

It seems they're suddenly showing up multiple servers now. Something must have changed recently to make then show up everywhere so suddenly. If there's a Magian trial that can cause them to appear by killing a lot of one specific mob type, that could account for it.

I need to check around in other zones too. If there's only one in a given zone (at least for now) and it roams the whole zone, it might be hard to find without Wide Scan.

I had heard about this way back when WoTG was first released but have never once seen or heard of it actually happening until now. I thought it was a myth haha. Don't some of the magian trials require you to release X number of pixies? If so that's probably why we're starting to see them in the present.

Yeah, one of the trails have you do the bottled pixie quest or something like that. Turning in bottled pixies cause a change in the "past" history or whatever you wanna call it forcing pixies to not be extinct. We're changing the present yo.

I just think it's kinda dumb that it only works for pixies. Some random *** Peiste in the present would be kewl D:

But hopefully noobs wont kill them off... gonna have to make some dunes pts and chase around pixies and force them to PL !!! muahaha

I was off in Buburimu on Hot & Cold on Fenrir and I spotted this one. It's kind of nice that they show up now, and hopefully it's related to player actions (releasing them via the quest) and not just due to mandatory populations for some Magian Trial.
