Nekorin 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2009 He just survey inside and outside (around) my unit and will discuss with me again with the report 2 weeks later. The survey only took about 20 mins. I'm curious he din use the special compass during the survey. Eh how come the report will need 2weeks. No compass how does the master know the direction??
