Toulan Born Program | How it Works
Virtualsense, Toulan Content Creator, is also the Content Creator for Monria and DSEC-9. We added Toulan to our virtual family on August 19, 2020. We will continue with our efforts to create a more vibrant environment not only with content, but also with a focus on boosting the economy. The Toulan Born new player experience was enhanced with more meaningful engagements that will help facilitate progression in game play. Toulan Borns are identified by their Toulan Born shirt and pants that is also their passport for boarding our Yamato Mothership and taking advantage of their free space travel benefit.
HERE'S WHAT A NEW TOULAN BORN NEEDS TO KNOW:
- Toulan Everything Guide
- --- this guide is very useful for navigating Toulan, keep it bookmarked
- --- it includes things such as helpful links, waypoints, NPC locations, and much more
- TOULAN BEGINNER MISSIONS
- the Toulan Born beginner mission chain begins with Salam at the Citadel location
- Salam is the first NPC you see when logging into the game after creating your Toulan Born avatar
- with the beginner missions you will receive items and ammo that are useful to help you progress
- there are other resources and activities that will help as well
- here is the link to the Toulan Born Beginner Missions with the 20 steps listed to complete
- there is also a mission to get your Toulan pants that aren't automatically given at the time you get the shirt
- --- see NPC Nadira at Guardian Village to take the mission
- --- she is located near the West Gate - turn left at the campfire before getting to the gate
- MOUNTAIN OF MADNESS BEGINNER MISSIONS
- we also created a new player beginners mission chain with items and ammo at the Mountain of Madness at DSEC-9
- --- DSEC-9 is Monria's expansion with 3 map sections
- --- after you travel to Monria, go to Navigating DSEC-9 to learn how to get to the Mountain of Madness
- --- then once you get there go to A Stranger in the Woods mission thread on how to do the new player mission chain
- --- make sure to take your sweating tool with you because you will need it for this mission chain
