Well after 2 weeks of the new "distraction" i find thats its a fun way to gain exp if your bored for one hour. there are some requirements and some useful things to start.
Cold war-so you can get 2 points for some of the penguins
Underground pass/Regicide-that way if there are any penguins in elf lands you can get them
Priest in Peril-morytania area
Cabin fever-sometimes there may be a penguin in mos le harmless
all "Relleka" related quests-this includes lunar, fremmik isles, mountain daughter for all areas around relleka
legends/shilo- Khazari jungle and shilo village can appear
troll series- for trollhiem and death plateu areas
myreque series/nature spirit-the woods and there may be a chance of a halowvale penguin
swan song-piscatoris area
Useful things to have:
ability to use fairy rings
teleportation jewlery
tabs(that way you can use ancients for few areas)
water tiara
might need food for a few of them
gnome gliders/spirit trees
when actually hunting them down it is helpful to have a group of 5 or more. Penguins move a lot and can be annoying to find. You also need to know what to look for. Their disguised usually represent their areas for example
Toadstool:zanaris
Bush:mcgrubbors woods
rock:lighthouse
Barrel:mos le harmless
crate:port phasymatis
cactus:desert
(pictures will be added soon)
once you know what to look for it can get easy just look for that object but moving. some penguins can have high ranges where it moves some low. But thats what makes it challenging and enjoyable. Good luck hunting down those penguins and i hope this guide helps.
