MapleStory/Sleepywood: Difference between revisions

Sleepywood is a small town located in the dungeon, at the center of Victoria Island. This town is a resting spot that leads deeper into the dungeon where strong monsters reside. There is a sauna to increase recovery to exhausted travelers. In the regular sauna, Mr. Sweatbottom sells the usual items which could be found in any potion shop in Victoria, except a few items which can only be bought here. In the VIP sauna, Mr. Wetbottom's only purpose is to give you a level 30 quest which culminates in the Sauna Robe. The Mysterious Statue leads you to jump quests. A player can walk to Sleepywood from [[MapleStory/Towns/Perion|Perion]], [[MapleStory/Towns/Kerning City|Kerning City]], and [[MapleStory/Towns/Henesys|Henesys]], via Warning Street. Alternatively, you can get to Ant Tunnel Park from [[MapleStory/Towns/Lith_Harbor|Lith Harbor]] and [[MapleStory/Towns/Ellinia|Ellinia]] via the VIP taxi for 10,000 mesos.

The Ant Tunnel Dungeon is one of the longest dungeons in the game. The monsters range from the low leveled Horny Mushrooms to Cold Eyes all the way up to the Island's Boss, the Jr. Balrog. There are a number of quests that involve wiping out either 99 or 999 of each species of monster here, activated by sign posts along the way. At the Ant Tunnel park, a last stop potion shop is located near the entrance portal. The initial platform is safe. It is from a map located off of Ant Tunnel Park that the Zombie Mushmom is found. The VIP taxi, found in [[MapleStory/Towns/Lith Harbor|Lith Harbor]] and [[MapleStory/Towns/Ellinia|Ellinia]], will bring a player directly to the park for a cost of 10,000 mesos. Deeper into the dungeon, there are several maps of Evil Eye, and the last area before the darkened part of the tunnel is the Drake Hunting ground. In one of those caves lies Francis the puppeteer's lair, which a KoC character is required to defeat him for a quest.[[Image:MS Cursed Sanctuary.jpg|thumb|right|The Jr. Balrog stalks the Cursed Sanctuary at the deepest layer of the Ant Tunnel.]]

After the Drake's Hunting Grounds map, the ground darkens, and the maps are referred to as having "Lost Light". The monsters are instantly stronger at this point. Cold Eyes swarm the floor, inhibiting ranged characters from attacking. Drakes roam freely,  and as one progresses deeper, they are joined by wild Kargo. The last safe area is the Sanctuary Entrance, where the path splits in two. The upper route leads to Drake's Meal table, where a variety of drake species are found, as well as a map of Kargo. The Ice Drakes and Dark Drakes, the two most powerful species, can be found in a new path off of this area. The lower route involves passing through Cold Eyes and 4 maps of Tauromaci, joined by Taurospears, and culminates in the Cursed Sanctuary, where the legendary Jr. Balrog spawns. The sanctuary was created by the Sharenian, and likely served a special purpose in their society.
