If you haven't been following the Rift expansion event being discussed in the Pinefar hunting folder, you may have missed the fact that one of the early and unexpected outcomes of the event was the discovery of three new cleric trinkets, pieced together from scraps of journal entries, which were themselves the ravings of a lunatic mind. The puzzle was solved a little while ago by a number of very dedicated players, cleric and non-cleric alike.
The items are called lichbane talismans. When worn and rubbed, they will provide a TD boost to fear-based spells as well as provide phantom levels to help avoid the effects of Sheer Fear. In fact, the top-tier talisman will make a person immune to both of these as long as the talisman is active.
The minor talisman is a rank 9 trinket. The lesser talisman is rank 33, and the greater talisman is rank 55. All are teachable by the NPCs and learnable from the library as of now (sensible enough since a recognized Guild Master and triple alchemy Master made the first trinkets).
QUESTION for those who participated: Was getting the new recipes in this way enjoyable? Is it something you'd ever like to do again in a different setting? Was questing around for possible ingredients, journal pages, and deciphering their contents too easy, too hard, too annoying?
