Talk:Shing Jea Arena

It seems impossible to reach there if you are not from canthan. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yes4me (talk &bull; contribs) 13:44, 21 May 2006 (CDT).
 * Well, you have to be under level 10 to enter anyway. - Greven 13:00, 27 May 2006 (CDT)
 * So then 100% map completion for Tyrian borns is still impossible.--The King Tarosian 21:53, 4 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Do the actual areas where PvP occurs count? All PvP areas are by default "uncovered" on the map.  --68.142.14.52 22:09, 4 June 2006 (CDT)
 * With this update you can go there. Got me an additional 0.3%.  --Rainith 23:21, 10 June 2006 (CDT)

Well to the person with the first comment, no point to come from anywhere but cantha. You can lvl SOOOOO much faster there.Razorcloud 18:18, 3 March 2007 (CST)


 * If you're trying for Canthan cartographer with a character who was created before Factions was released then there's a point ;¬) RossMM 17:21, 14 June 2007 (CDT)

Smoke Pots
How can you tell if they're Canthan. We have no evidence that they are Canthan, for we have no idea what Canthan writing looks like. So, I'm changing it back ;D The Imperialist 17:14, 25 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Stroll around Kaineng Center and you'll see plenty of Canthan characters on banners and so forth (example in image provided). The characters in the smoke (and Canthan characters in general) are [edit] for the most part [/edit] not real Chinese, although Canthan is probably heavily based on it for thematic purposes.

 * The image characters do indeed not look Chinese, but who needs the confusion? The Imperialist
 * Those characters (among others) are used as smoke sprites for those lamps, though. To say the smoke sprites are Chinese would be misleading. I'd probably go for removing the note altogether, however, especially since those smoke pots are in more than just Shing Jea Arena, and just having it mentioned here seems kinda pointless. :\ Oscidaes 20:01, 25 July 2007 (CDT)
 * China doesn't exist in Tyria, so the symbols are clearly meant to be Canthan. BigAstro 20:51, 25 July 2007 (CDT)
