How to unlock Epona in Star Stable Online
Epona is the Southern Harvest Counties region. The current publisher checklist requires level 14, access to the Harvest Counties, the Jarlaheim mayor storyline, Jill and Mrs. Drake’s quests, and Friendly reputation with GED Jarlaheim. The community wiki adds earlier reputation-chain details; these are shown separately.

Unlock requirements
Steps
- Reach level 14 as a Star Rider. The wiki notes that the SMS from Herman usually waits until around level 16.
- Finish Jack Goldspur’s Jarlaheim quests and help him with the new mayor.
- Use the publisher checklist: unlock the Harvest Counties bridge, complete the mayor storyline, finish Jill and Mrs. Drake’s Jarlaheim quests, and build GED Jarlaheim to Friendly. The wiki additionally lists the Jorvik Stables, Jarlasson, and Goldspur reputation chains.
- Turn Ms. Drake’s report in to Herman. That closes “A step up in your career?”
- Follow Herman’s message when the prerequisites are complete. The publisher warns that the text can arrive before all gates are ready; finish Jill’s remaining quests if access is still closed.
Archaeology, stars, and spiders
Archaeology in this region arrived on 3 August 2016. You need Liked reputation with the A.A.E. Archaeology Department and at least one dinosaur skeleton finished with Professor Jura. He then sends you to Hawaii Jones in New Hillcrest. After Mississippi Jones’s treasure quest, the dig sites open. Finds include a Viking sword at Dew’s Farm, a captain’s canteen in Mirror Marshes, a spyglass at Shipwreck Shore in Western Epona, and Roman amphoras at Old Ridgecaster and Butter Hill. Extra-interesting finds go to Walter Winterwell in New Hillcrest. Ordinary finds go to Professor Chiron near X 133, Y 338. Only seven digs are active at once. Extra-interesting finds are one per area per day, and this region has four areas, so four a day is the cap. Dig coordinates reshuffle when you log in.
The search “north Epona stars” does not match a heading I can quote. The Fallen Stars article has a South Epona section, and the whole game has 200 stars. I am not inventing a north list. Eastern spiders are a separate collectible: one video from 21 March 2025 counts ten in Eastern Epona. Jorvikipedia says a full spider set finishes Professor Hayden’s task and pays tack plus a pet. That count is one video, so I am not pasting coordinates from it.

Luna Strongshield’s video, published 21 March 2025, walks Eastern Epona spider spots. Coordinates in the video are one source and are not copied onto this page.
