# Poring Haven

# Poring Haven

Poring Haven is OceaniaRO's custom early leveling field, set in the old novice grounds at **new_1-1**. It mixes classic starter monsters with OceaniaRO's custom poring line so new players can level, farm, and learn the server's custom reward loop in one place.

## Field Structure

- Classic starter mobs — Porings, Drops, Poporings, and Marins help smooth out early leveling.
- Soft aquatics — Extra Marins, Aqua Rings, and Hydras teach the water/Coral Reef loop without leaving the Haven.
- Custom porings — Themed poring variants provide extra drops, cards, and trial targets.
- Poring King — A living mini-boss that ties into the mercenary token system and the Rising Tide.

## Getting There

- Use the Malangdo Warper and choose Poring Haven.
- The **Poring Haven Guide** at 66,115 heals, warps to Malangdo or Izlude, reports King/Census/tide, and manages Beginner Assist / Haven Favor.

## Why It Exists

Poring Haven gives players a custom leveling space that feels more directed than standard wandering. It also feeds into custom cards, hunt-board trials, Tidemark mercenary tokens, early economy materials, and Harbor Reputation.

## Poring King Sigils

The Coral Sigil, Storm Feather, and Abyss Pearl that can drop from the Poring King are Tidemark Company faction tokens. They are not vendor trash.

- Coral Sigil — Tidewarden (tank) contracts
- Storm Feather — Galestrider (ranged) contracts
- Abyss Pearl — Deepcaster (magic) contracts

Take them to the Tidemark Broker in Izlude harbor. One token = Normal contract; three tokens = Elite (two if you are Tidebound rank — see Harbor Reputation).

## Beginner Assist Mode

Toggle at the Guide or Settings Assistant. In Poring Haven only (Base Level **60** and below):

- Targets the **nearest** allowed starter mob
- Sticks until that mob dies or leaves range
- Does not move you or use skills
- Resumes after revive if still in the Haven

Allowed targets include Poring, Drops, Poporing, Marin, Aqua Ring, Cream Ring, Green/Red Apple Poring, and Hydra.

## Haven Favor

Every kill in the Haven raises **Haven Favor**. Talk to the Guide to claim milestones at **50 / 150 / 400** (coins, coral, EXP, and more).

## The Poring Court

- The Poring King holds court — arrival/defeat announced on the field; ~60s respawn; feeds the Tidegauge and Harbor standing.
- **Poring Rally** — odd hours at :10, 20-minute surge + Crown Couriers with Bronze Coins. Seasonal themes (Love / Aqua / Pumpkin / Snow).
- **Jelly Census** — server-wide cull count; every 10,000th kill triggers a bonus rally.
- **Spring Tide flood** — when the world Spring Tide breaks, the Haven floods with aquatics for 30 minutes (Tide Couriers pay coral/coins; better pay at higher Harbor rank).
- **High-tide fringe** — when world tide ≥ 50, odd hours at :40 can wash a short aquatic fringe onto the field.

## Player Advice

- Start with Nerin's apprentice samples, then Maren in Izlude for Ocean Gear.
- Keep King sigils for mercs.
- Card hunting? Use `@orokills Poring` (or any mob) — card drops announce globally with your count.
- Story pointers: `@oronext` · Harbor standing: `@ororep`

Rumor: something else washed up on this field long ago. A deckhand in Malangdo pays for answers.
