Additional Information

There are several points to note about this deed:

• This is a hidden deed; nothing will appear in the deed log until the deed is completed.
• This deed is about jumping into the deepest areas within each region, so there may be multiple locations from which to jump and successfully update this deed. So other co-ordinates may be used successfully, even if not listed.
• The only means of knowing that you have successfully accomplished one of the deed objectives is to see the "quest update text" (see Locations, below, for the text) saying you've fallen in. Each character will only see this text once per location.
• In most cases the jump will result in the character's death; otherwise, if the character survives, there may be no means of walking out of the pit. Use of a travel skill (port, milestone, map, etc) is the only means of escape - or the /stuck command.
• If the character dies on the final jump, the reward is granted on resurrection.
