If how to do it, then follow the link I gave to the Glitch Strategy Wiki and around to the locations listed there until you find 7 ghosts. The location of your ghosts are random so you have to go through them one by one until you find 7.
When you get to the area where a ghost is supposed to be, use your mouse to hover in and around the area to check if there is one present. If not, proceed to the next location.
You might think about joining this group www.glitch.com/groups/RUVJL... and taking one of their ghost tours. I hear it's much less boring to do that quest when you're with a group. I keep planning to go on one of their ghost tours sometime soon :)
I can't find a single dark area in Aranna. Anyone know a place FULL of dark places?
The only reason i'm even doing this quest is because it gives 1200 Xp in the end.
Edit: GHOST TOURS? ....I'm not going on that.. I saw the Wiki and almost gave me a heart attack. O.O
If the wiki almost gave you a heart attack, then a ghost tour is the answer. There are 40 ghosts, but you will only be able to see seven of them (at least until after you've finished the quest). There is no way to know which seven you can see until you find them. You could go to the area with the most possible ghost locations and not see a single one.
If all you want is the 1200 xp, and if you're unwilling to let others help you with the traveling, you're better off just ignoring the quest. Visiting 40 rather dispersed locations on your own without teleport assistance is really not worth the 3+ hours it would take for 1200 xp.
I am not "unwilling to let others help" me nor am I going to ignore the quest, that's all just nonsense.
I actually want to do it alone. I think the ghosts are special and really cool and since we don't all see the same ones, I'm okay with doing it on my own.
I didnt have a single ghost in Chakra! :) Most of my ghosts were in the caverns/deeps and pretty easy to see, but I walked through the Groddle Forest locations dozens of times on my own and still managed to walk past my last ghost without seeing it. They hide really well!
Thank you Ghost Tours for helping me track down those pesky buggers! Having the wiki is great, but for some ghosts (thats right, I'm looking at you ghost on Hackfast Quicks!) you sometimes just need someone to point and say 'THERE!' ;)
My first comment was directed at Tacos too and not a "general comment."
I was telling Tacos that he should do it the way he wants to. Not to listen to someone telling him he's "unwilling to" anything, if he doesn't do it the way someone else thinks it should be done.
Ignoring a quest or letting someone tell you that you are "unwilling to let others help you" because you would rather do something on your own instead of going on some ghost tour or something is, in my opinion, nonsense.
Tacos would not have posted the question here to begin with if he/she was "unwilling" to get help with the quest.
I still fully agree with what both bobzarkoff and now what shexycorin said.
I assume the ghosts will only appear in a location once during the quest? I found 5/7 before it ever occurred to me to make a note of where I had seen them. XD
