Atlantica Online – Arc’s Guide on Dungeons that Matter

    1. Which version of AO are you playing? If it’s the Indo one, I don’t think OT exists there yet.
      Olympus Tower is available on the right side of the screen along the buttons section – a Gold Tower.

  3. Hi ArcanicVoid, just wondering if there would be any updates to this guide now that its almost 9 months after the last time you posted this? I’m a returning player, so I’ve been following your site closely.

    Thanks and love what you have here. The info really helps alot.

    1. Perhaps I can update it to a current trend; the guide was more or less meant to try to stand the test of time (1 year or so). Prices (and profits) vary so often, it’s never going to be accurate.

      1. Came back to check out the game. While nothing really changed much since end of 2016, the economy just went complete nutz. Still trying to wrap my head around it, trying to figure out what worth doing and what not. The lvl recommendation from the game sometime really abit vague, as it still depend on how good is player’s gear.

        1. Yeah, it’s hard to ascertain what a player can handle in each dungeon unless you go into great detail with minimum levels to try them out personally.
          Basically trial by practice is the best way to verify how a dungeon is and you won’t really know the dungeon until you do it yourself or watch a full video of it.
