Rookie Harbor

Rookie Harbor is a location in CrossWorlds. It is the first town in CrossWorlds that players visit after they finish the beginner dungeon, Rhombus Dungeon.

Layout
Rookie Harbor is centered around a large market plaza with a fountain. The town's main building, the Seeker Hub, is located here. Heading south leads to the harbor itself, a popular meeting place for rookies, and beyond that to Beginner's Arc, a series of interconnected piers where the teleporter from Rhombus Square is located. West of the market is an area of town with several shops that connects to Autumn's Rise. The eastern area, heading towards Autumn's Fall, is geared towards higher-level players. A northern area can also be accessed after completing the Faj'ro Temple.

Other than the northern area, very few parts of Rookie Harbour are inaccessible. The exceptions are Traders Kontor 2F, unlocked during the New Metal quest, and Tala's Greenhouse, unlocked at the very end of the Crocus Pocus quest.

The regions adjoining Rookie Harbor are Autumn's Rise via Rising Exit, Autumn's Fall via Falling Exit, and Rhombus Square via the Harbor Teleporter in Beginner's Arc.
