    The Smugglers have finally sorted out their access to the IFN Warehouses below Celeste Harbour Military HQ

    As previously stated these instances will open up after you completed at least one of the required missions the smugglers gave you once you became a smuggler, unlock all 4 of those missions will grant you access to all 4 of the instances. Just completed one will give access to corresponding number warehouse.

    Wombana, gives you access to Warehouse 01
    Navi, gives you access to Warehouse 02
    Badger 710_R, gives you access to Warehouse 03
    Togolosssi, gives you access to Warehouse 04​

    The Smugglers also introduced a combat training system open to any Smuggler who want to train on their combat skills. This system can be obtained from the Smuggler Challenge Terminal by any Smuggler

    The Smugglers have also introduced an Armour Plate upgrade quest, Kate will have more info regarding this quest.

    The Smugglers have also been seen to tame Oratan Miners in the underground

    Known Issues

    • Smuggler Beret and Smuggler Shades missing its inventory icons still
    • Exit from the warehouses will place you on the ground above the entrance
    • Jumping in the tunnel leading down under the HQ is not advised, you might be caught so you have to press T to get free

    Well done, Ark team! :D

    Just completed several smuggler mission Warehouse 4 runs, a couple of globals, no items and lost over 2400ped......

    Wont be trying them again........

    Loot was just as poor as the recent Golden Door I did with Cobra

    MA control the loot and seem to be killing these instances in my opinion, which is a shame as they are great and fun to do.

    What is interesting, is that you can add a member to the team, who has not completed the missions, and they can enter the Warehouse in your team and do the instance with you.

    So I am guessing you could make a big team, providing one of you has done one of the 4 missions.

    If you are on the Smuggler Mission chain, join the #smuggler chat channel.

    Warehouse - nothing but pking instance, why is called warehouse?
    Good that i did stage 6 only on wombana lol.
    Another bad news: [System]: You are not allowed to summon a pet in this zone.
    Didn't checked aakas but if this is how now it work then an big lolololol.
    That's like planet partner work around until all platform devs playing with compets - again lolol.
    Mission terminal - it offer killing human npcs as skilling, that must be great for pkers with risk to do it daily grind for a year or two just like IFN with oratan prospectoirs.

    I'm confused. I thought the mission required for access was a completed stage 6, which is given through the IFN Terminal and not Smugglers. Is it required to buy one's Smuggler clothes before taking it up?

    What is this mission appearing in the top screenshot, does this mean actual pvp battles? À la the Cyrene Hub?

    I also don't understand the term 'Warehouse' in this context. To me this is a place where you can buy stuff, or a commercial storage. Surely it wasn't necessary to create an instance for a shopping interface?

    Sorry for being :turtle:

    Don't have all answers, but from what I've heard too:

    First two missions (required to take mission three) are the smuggler clothes.

    Mission three is to finish at least one of the four IFN challenges (but only counts if you can take mission three, so finishing first two first).

    Mission three is needed for access to instances.

    TL; DR: Yeah, you need to buy the clothes first.


    IFN soldiers are NPCs from instance named like that; Kikki globalled today on a IFN Sergeant or so.

    So really doubt it has anything with PVP.


    Warehouse means in this context storage house, and the story behind appears to be that you're breaking in IFN's storage where they stockpiled tones of arms, instead of giving them to citizens to defend themselves.

    Thank you very much. So to be absolutely clear, I would have to get to this mission three by buying my clothes before taking stage 6 of any one of the four relevant IFN missions, else the effort would be wasted. Correct?

    Since I am/was not there myself, I obviously can't say that "absolutely clear", but yeah, that's what I understood, that it is not given retroactively, but you have to finish it again after you get your clothes. :)
