The '''GladiusRO Custom Episode 19 Expedition''' is an account-wide adventure system featuring randomized daily missions, difficult weekly challenges, exploration activities, reputation progression, and the Isgard Field Codex.
Welcome to '''Episode 19: The Isgard Expedition'''. This guide explains the main story, objectives, locations, and progression without revealing exact reward quantities.
[[File:Location- prontera 147,160.png|thumb|Location: prontera 147,160]]
'''Reward Notice:''' Reward types may be shown, but exact amounts and final results are revealed only in-game after claiming.


Unlike traditional quest boards, players normally cannot select a particular daily adventure. The Expedition Officer assigns one eligible adventure randomly from the missions currently available to the account.

== How Random Adventures Work ==
 
# Speak to the Expedition Officer in Prontera.
# Select '''Receive Random Adventure'''.
# Read the explanation carefully.
# Select '''Accept unknown adventure'''.
# The officer randomly selects one eligible mission.
# The mission is revealed only after acceptance.
# Complete the assigned objectives.
# Return to the Expedition Officer to claim the sealed reward.
 
'''Important rules:'''
 
* Only one Random Adventure assignment can be active at a time.
 
* Players cannot choose their assignment.
 
* Players cannot reroll an accepted assignment.
 
* Available assignments depend on Base Level, daily completion records, and cooldowns.
 
* Most daily missions are limited to once per account per day.
 
* Abandoning a mission clears its current mission progress.
 
* An abandoned mission may become available again if its daily completion reward has not been claimed.
 
* The daily completion record is generally applied when the reward is claimed.
 
* Exact random rewards are normally revealed only after completion.
 
== Quest Progress Display ==
Different mission types display progress differently.
 
=== Quest Window Missions ===
Some official hunting missions appear in the Quest Window. These include missions such as:

Kill progress for supported hunting objectives is also displayed in the chat window after each credited kill.

For these missions:
 
* Progress is displayed in the chat window.
 
* The Expedition Officer shows the current objective.
 
* Hidden checkpoints advance automatically when the character walks near them.
 
* Players should return to the officer if they are unsure of the next objective.

Inventory-based objectives only count materials currently carried by the character. Do not sell, store, trade, or consume required materials before submitting the mission.

== Abandoning an Adventure ==
= Troubleshooting =
Most active assignments include an abandon option.
 
When an adventure is abandoned:
 
* The current assignment is removed.
 
* Script-controlled progress is cleared.
 
* Hunting progress connected to that assignment may be removed.
 
* Exploration checkpoints are reset.
 
* No completion reward is granted.
 
* Daily or weekly completion cooldowns are normally not applied.
 
For inventory collection missions, abandoning the mission usually does not remove items already carried. However, those items will not count as mission progress until the corresponding mission is active again.
 
== Troubleshooting ==
 
=== I cannot access the Expedition Officer's menu ===
Make sure Episodes 16, 17, and 18 have been completed manually or through their respective Clear Tickets.
 
=== No Random Adventure is available ===
Possible reasons include:
 
* Base Level is too low.
 
* Eligible daily missions were already completed.
 
* A special mission is under cooldown.
 
* Another Random Adventure is still active.
 
* The account must wait until the next daily reset.
 
=== My mission does not appear in the Quest Window ===
Some custom adventures are script-controlled and do not use the official Quest Window.
 
Check:
 
* Chat progress messages
 
* The Expedition Officer's mission menu
 
* The current warp option
 
* Hidden checkpoint notifications
 
=== A checkpoint does not activate ===
Make sure that:
 
* The correct adventure is active.
 
* You are visiting the assigned region.
 
* Earlier checkpoints were completed first.
 
* You are following the randomized route order.
 
* You walk around the stated landmark instead of standing on blocked scenery.
 
For the Exploration Survey, use '''Show next checkpoint guide''' at the Expedition Officer.
 
=== My kills are not counting ===
Check that:
 
* The correct assignment is active.
 
* You are killing the exact assigned monster.
