King Hagan, also known as the Wise Old King, ruler of Brightvale, is always on the search for additional enlightenment. Other than from his voracious reading, this includes hearing wise words from fellow Neopians, like you!
"I'm wise, and I don't have a brother."
Select your words wisely from the dropdown, and try to impress the wisest king. If he's impressed, you may be rewarded!
You can offer Hagan some advice once per day.
Outcomes
Regardless of what wisdom you bestow upon Hagan, your grade is completely random. Sadly this means there aren't any tips or tricks to boosting the grade he awards you; it has nothing to do with what you actually choose to say to him. Below outlines the possible responses and any awards from him pondering your statement.
A+
Flavor Text: Wow! King Hagan is very impressed.
Hagan: Ahh, brilliant! It's good to know there are intelligent Neopians out there.
I give you an A+! ([751-1000] out of 1000)
You must take this gift from me.
Reward: You profound genius you! As a reward for your intellect you will receive one of the following books and normally between 200-700 Neopoints. Sometimes, you will also receive one of the B-grade books, and you may also randomly be awarded the Skeith - King Hagan avatar.
B
Flavor Text: It seems he is not displeased. That's good.
Hagan: Well you're not the sharpest tack in the drawer, but that wasn't too bad.
I give you a B! ([600-750] out of 1000)
Here is something to help you study.
Reward: Ah, you're smart! But you could still use some wisening up. For this grade King Hagan gives you one of the following books.
I Already Knew That!
Flavor Text: Well, it could have been worse.
Hagan: I'm not dense, youngin'. I already knew that!
Reward: No items, but maybe up to 100 Neopoints if you're lucky:
Hagan: I'll give you XX Neopoints for the effort, though.
It is presumed that the score range for receiving this outcome is 301-599, but since there is no score messaging and scores under 751 do not appear in your High Score list, it is impossible to verify.
F-
Flavor Text: Erm... have you been keeping up with your reading?
Hagan: That didn't make any sense at all. Preposterous!
If I could go lower than an F-, I would. ([200-300] out of 1000)
Reward: Nothing...and I thought Skarl had a bad temper!
Bonuses
Occasionally you will catch Hagan in a good mood and he will give you a "x10 bonus." In these cases, you can get a few hundred Neopoints out of him, so it's not all bad. (Thanks to Anne for reminding us about that).
Hagan: I'll give you XXX Neopoints for the effort, though (including a x10 bonus since I'm feeling nice today).
This bonus is possible for any outcome other than an F- grade.
High Scores
Your score for the game is simply the rating that Hagan gives you out of 1,000; the reward does not factor in. You must score at least 751 to be listed on the high scores.
Out Studying
There are certain times during the day when you won't be able to bother enlighten King Hagan. He will be off in his library studying every day at:
- 8:00 - 9:00 AM NST
- 1:00 - 2:00 PM NST
- 7:00 - 8:00 PM NST
If you try to visit him during those times you will find an empty throne with a sign on it; just pop back during the next hour and you can try then instead.
