FAQ β May Almanax
Q: Do Almanax XP bonuses apply to quests?
A: No, Almanax XP bonuses only apply to combat (monsters, dungeons, challenges). Quest XP is unaffected. However, "double quest kamas" bonuses exist on certain days.
Q: What's the best use of a +100% loot bonus?
A: Target dungeons with rare, expensive drops. +100% loot doubles your drop chance per monster β far more profitable on high-value mobs than common ones.
Q: How much does a full month of Almanax offerings cost?
A: On average, 50K-200K depending on the month and server. Check the Marketplace for estimates.
