Tamuz:

Dear Sorcerers (and other pure professions) on 08/31/2013 03:11 PM EDT

But mostly sorcerers.

Since I love you guys so much, I've created another thing you can carry around! Maybe even multiple copies.

Have you often had this problem?

You glance down to see an aish'vrak potion in your right hand and a smooth stone in your left hand.
Speaking to your smooth stone, you exclaim, "How plain!"
You pour your aish'vrak potion on a smooth stone.
Green-blue smoke rises from the stone as the liquid touches its surface, then dissipates.
That was the last drop.
The aish'vrak potion shatters into twinkling dust.
You glance down to see nothing in your right hand and a smooth stone in your left hand.
Speaking to your smooth stone, you say, "Yup, still plain and boring."

Well, I've got just the solution for you, with my amazing new runestone transmogrification and spiffyness inducer!

You remove a small blue glass jar with a silvery mithril lid from in your shadowy void black DOOMCLOAK.
You put a smooth stone in your blue glass jar.
You sweep your hand across the surface of the blue glass jar and it produces a hollow rumbling noise followed by a short flash of light leaking from its interior. You feel a trickle of power flow from your fingertips in to the blue glass jar.
In the blue glass jar you see a smooth pale blue sea glass runestone.
You remove a smooth pale blue sea glass runestone from in your blue glass jar.
You exclaim, "Much better!"

Now you can have fancy runestones all year round, or even a few different varieties for the different runes you might use. There will be ten off-the-shelf models, each producing a different runestone. They will have 50 charges. I'll also be providing a service to make them permanent and potentially customizing them as well, for those of you who want a signature runestone. Very similar to the imbue boxes of years past, but geared towards the pure professions (all of whom have spells linked with runestones).

___
GemStone IV will be up shortly!
Sorry guys, my bad :(

[Tsk Tsk]

Who likes shoes? Better yet, who likes making their own shoes? You? Good! Because there will be a particular merchant at Ebon Gate giving away limited number of rare (if not impossible to find) materials for you cobblers out there. This includes metal, wood types, and hides.

Excited? Good! Because that's not all!

A limited number of winners will be able to provide their own metal, gems, hides, horns etc. to made into suitable cobbling material. There will be restrictions to this service, including some Rift gems and very rare materials, but it should still be enough to get some of you salivating. - (I highlighted this because I think cobblers might want to brainstorm this possibility in advance ~Inurtia)

And because I know you'll ask, I don't want to release the final list of restrictions just yet, but I'll have a sign covering the details at the festival.

(Oh, and there might be a shop to go with this service. Just saying.)

[Jhynnifer]

Holy shit. Now if could just get those patterns released from like 2 years ago...

[Tsk Tsk]

I guess I can toss out a couple of teasing teaser teases.

Hedgehogs!

Bow sighting (some limitations apply).

Flaring razors for fletchers.

Gots a new spooky, gothy, Halloweeny shop that will be selling clothes, some temporary feature changing potions, crazy make up, and will be raffling off some forehead gems.

Really GROSS shop. Rumor has it, there's a haste item in there. That you have to eat. Did I mention it was really gross? Also! Stock up on things for trading! The merchant of this shop only trades!

Annnnd, yeah. That's it. Maybe.

[Whirlin]

I'm a bit surprised... there are quite a few combat related services being offered... I always attributed EG to be more alterations & cosmetics, while RtCF was more combat-related stuffs.

[Tsk Tsk]

I always found it to be a good mix. The festival that has it all sort of place.

[Moonwitch]

Holy shit. Now if could just get those patterns released from like 2 years ago...

I'll enter or be there for you Riend if you need me to try to get this service done for you. Since I know you are a cobbling person! I still have that bolt of Tehiri fabric and those rare Erithi gems too :)

[Moonwitch]

I'm a bit surprised... there are quite a few combat related services being offered... I always attributed EG to be more alterations & cosmetics, while RtCF was more combat-related stuffs.

EG started out as just shopping with a few highly coveted merchants doing alterations. It really has grown a lot over the years to include some combat stuff, tons of raffles, contests, quest and we can't forget those addictive games! It really has become my favorite event.

[Donquix]

EG has been pretty significant in combat items since at least what, 09? Even without the auctions, there's always been some good things released. Khal had a run of a few years in a row with special combat flares, Ironwright flares debuted at EG and also did weighting for forgers, there was another forger-specific merchant i forget the name, been some random enchanting, flares, etc. Certainly not to the same level as CCF but it's generally 1 or 2 really nice combat stuff, a decent amount of more mundane combat services, then a shit ton of GALDs with the random "spoooooky" one-offs thrown in.

[MotleyCrew]

Whisper masks will be back this year, and you should have an easier time getting them worked on.

~Vanah

What's a whisper mask?

[Gizmo]

What's a whisper mask?

The masks with sockets in the eyes that you can insert gems into, that also conceal your features.

The whispers are randomly scripted, and fire off about every 5mins or so and are mostly "Dark aligned" so to speak.

An example of one: Light as a feather, a whisper falls on the back of your mind, pleading, "Please, don't leave me!"

[crb]

I wonder if the resistance adding merchant allows you to break the 30% barrier.

[Zaigh]

I wonder if the resistance adding merchant allows you to break the 30% barrier.

From Aulis:

<<Will there be a limit go the amount of resistance added...I.e. 30% total?

As far as I have been approved for there is no mention of a limit. But that may change between now and then.

[Zaigh]

Not the fake kind, but for my forging fellows:

Slab smelter is back.
Rapier, Maul, Lance, and Tiger-Claw glyphs are back.
Mithglin slabs are back.
Enchanting of player-forged weapons is back.

What's that you say? You want something new? Okay.

How about:
You offer your elegant vultite handaxe to Iamal.
...
Iamal offers you a superior vultite handaxe.

Or maybe:
You offer your superior rolaren mace to Iamal.
...
Iamal offers you a perfect rolaren mace.


~V

[Donquix]

Finally, the upgrading service for forging people have been asking about, nice.

And me, with a locker full of superior golvern mauls and lances on a deactivated account :(

[Moonwitch]

Oh nice! My bard can get her superior lance upgraded to perfect while her perfect is getting enchanted.

[Donquix]

A lot of the EG forging merchants varulv ran were for forgers and their own weapons, only. Might want to ask about restrictions on that service.

[RSR]

No they weren't. They were for player-forged weapons only. It didn't matter if you forged the weapon or not, just that someone did.

[Donquix]

No they weren't. They were for player-forged weapons only. It didn't matter if you forged the weapon or not, just that someone did.

Some services were for forged weapons, in general, but then they had other (usually superior) ones that were for a forgers own weapons only.

edit: this is from 2007, think the first time ironwright showed up, had the same thing going at least a couple more EG's later. If it's been dropped completely in more recent years, then I guess it doesn't matter anymore. Still worth checking up on before people get their hopes up though :D
"Disclaimer: Enchanting and weighting are only available to members of the Forgers' Artisan Guild who bring their own craftsmanship. All services are limited to weapons of less than eight enchants and which do not currently have flares, zests, or other special abilities. The Blessed Flares cannot be applied to weapons which are already permanently blessed."

Last year Iamal worked on forged weapons from people other than the person getting the work done.

What?!
Only 31 damage on a 192 Claid endroll?!

But seriously, adding ensorcell to claids...magic!

[Aluvius]

It probably has earth flares instead of weighting :)

[Rolis]

Claid vs Full plate:
DF = 225 * 92 endroll = ~21 raw damage
Claid weighting = 40 phantom damage
Max theoretical rank = 61%11 = 5
Min theoretical rank = 5/2 rounded up = 3
Actual Rank = 4; Reasonable result for a fully weighted claidhmore given randomization.

>l my bag
Thick strands of webbing have been woven in a chaotic pattern to create the thick organic mesh of this spidersilk bag. Hollow insect carcasses and bits of debris are interspersed and impossibly tangled within the walls, while thin web-covered straps extend from its sides.

>l in my bag
In the spidersilk bag you see four scarlet spiders.

You ponder.

>wear bag
As you put on a gossamer spidersilk bag covered in dried insects, you suddenly feel a sharp pain in your hand! You quickly pull back your hand but cannot see any visible wound. A moment later you can feel a strange scratching presence in the back of your mind. It takes a moment to realize that the source is four scarlet spiders with pale blue eyes within your bag.

You frown.

... and much more.

A few of you may recognize a rare version of these from the past. I've updated and overhauled them a bit from their previously buggy (pun intended) selves, and made a few fun improvements. Some completely unlocked versions of these will be in the prize hopper, and a few more completely unlocked versions will likely be given out at some point during the festival. (Oh, and the spiders will be randomized off the shelf, but can later be customized by merchants who don't mind the creepy crawlies.)

I look forward to creeping you out!

You glance down to see a vial of pallid sanguine blood in your right hand and a dark woolen longcoat in your left hand.

Pouring the pallid sanguine blood on a dark woolen longcoat will permanently stain the longcoat in blood, altering the way it looks.

Both GoryWeapons and GoryVials will be for sale at Ebon Gate. The longcoat example was to show you that ClimateWear is compatible with GoryVials. As are my bandoliers/harness, pelt bags, chrism holders, and a number of my other scripts (as well as other's scripts that support dyeing).



~Wyrom, SGM

[Gizmo]

You're slacking with the teaser list.

You need to add all of this below....

Luneth rummages through a rotting crate and pulls out a large golvern shield. "No no, this won't do, it needs more banshee!" Imbuing the aegis with a bright red glow, she drops it into the cauldron.

"A wand of soulstone. Yes, this will work just fine." Wisps of necrotic haze exude from the cauldron as the wand sinks beneath the murky surface.

Luneth begins tossing a set of five scroll cutters into the cauldron, pausing to murmur an archaic chant with each one. As she chants, the mechanisms of the cutters glow blisteringly hot, repairing all imperfections, before solidifying with a solid permanence.

"And last, but not least, just a dash of sweetness." With a smirk, Luneth drops a parchment certificate scrawled with the words "Alter Session" into the cauldron.

His feeder pile began with a rolaren falchion. He eyed it appreciatively, noting the better than normal enchantment and the potential for disintegration flares. He was cut off from his reverie by the sound of sliding. He quickly whirled around and pulled two pairs of unarmed combat gloves off his tilting pile and added them to the feeder. He smiled at those two, admiring the 7x enchant and the different flares.

The large pile a bit more stabilized, Archiwald took his time pulling out a sephwir longbow, a golvern maul with grapple flares, and a mithril claidhmore. Last but not least, he pulled out a fireleaf runestaff, enchanted once above natural for the wood, and also possessing acuity flares, and added it to the growing feeder pile. Dusting off his hands, he walked from the room.

How about... hm... let's see... a zesty little sephwir long bow with a pretty little glyph on it?

Or maybe you like sticks, and a grapply glyphed illthorn runestaff, or perhaps a glowbark runestaff that does something really special when you raise it, are more to your liking.

No? Well, there's a jam-smeared stone statue that I especially adore. Maybe people will keep their hands off your disk if it's all covered in sticky jam!

And lastly, for the animal lovers, a personal favorite. A fully unlocked treat pouch. Not sure what that is? Well, you can store treats in it for a companion! And, since this one is fully unlocked, you can also rustle up fresh treats a few times a day! Hmm… maybe I should pull this one out and keep it.

I highlighted everything in Bold that were the items themselves and properties.

Items of huge note would be the Soulstone Wand.

[Zaigh]

You're slacking with the teaser list.

You mean the stuff I edited onto the list about two days ago when that teaser was posted? Starts just under the spider bags for the treasure hopper part.

I'm only adding posts to bump if the thread starts to get buried, if an item comes up that needs more explanation that I can do in a line on the 1st post, or to respond to posts.

Ahh, I thought you were doing bumps when new stuff was posted. Apologies! But well, least now it's bumped for those who kinda thought the same as me.

Looking forward to EG this year again though, good stuff

[Zaigh]

I'll feed the teasers. Or should that be tease the feeders? Either way, here's a bite.

Are you one to enjoy spur of the moment dancing? Fear not. Carry a magic cube in your back pocket! What's that? You don't have anything to wear? Better hope you find that sundress that will easily change over into a ballgown. Or maybe you'd just rather have a crate follow you around throughout the festival?

You better play games - lots and lots of games!

For those of you who enjoy adorning others' faces with paint, be on the lookout for some new designs, including Lornon and Liabo-themed sticks. These are coming to an Ebon Gate shop near you...

May I present, in part, one of Ebon Gate's newest addictions!

PUMPKIN TOSSING!

"...As your feet reach the toe-line, you shove the pumpkin forward from your chest with all your might! Gasping for air, you look to see your pumpkin land...." SOMEWHERE! You'll have to play to see more!

A new game has been introduced at the Halfway Midway!


Everyone, meet Gurtey!
>look dwarf

>Gurtey is especially short, even for a dwarf. She is wearing patched faded coveralls which are hitched at the front with a single large red button on one side. Her over-sized orange and black plaid flannel shirt has rolled up sleeves that extend just beyond her wrists, and a part of her shirt tail dangles from one side of her coveralls. She is shoeless.

And she is ready, willing, and able to exchange coins for her pumpkins to be heave-ho'd! No special skills needed to play, the course is equal to all participants. See you there!

A small dirty boy stands near a pile of mud-covered pails, his bare feet playing in a large puddle of mud that flows around the base of an iron water pump.


A small dirty boy yells, "Come on over and go dippin' in the mud! Take a pail and give it a try!"


You head toward the mud-covered pails and a small dirty boy approaches you, holding out a hand and demanding 500 silver.
You hand over the coins.

A small dirty boy hands you a mud-covered pail which you quickly dip into the puddle.

I wonder what I found!?!?

I have acquired a magic seed pouch and will be raffling it off in my shop, "Bog Botanicals". For those unfamiliar with the pouch, it will produce magical seeds that may be buried to produce a type of plant. You may then pluck the plant, harvesting its healing herbs. Yay gardening!

>>So this is.. tier 4?

That's actually an example of Tier 9 armor. I'm adding 16 unlockable tiers to the armor, which can only be unlocked one step at a time.

> The fact that you can 'shrug' off your wounds is a hidden morsel of awesomeness.

I was pleased with that use myself. :)

I can't wait for more items that rip off professional abilities. Especially berserk casting armor.

I can't wait to get them so a rogue actually has the ability to break statuses.

[xdigitalx]

I'd like to see a list of what each tier does....and who the hell is going to luck into getting this service 16 times to max out a set?

Sagoth

[eulogia]

There's 16 possible tiers, but a set of armor can only have 9 tiers unlocked.

Everyone will have to pick their own upgrade path.

[Donquix]

what the fucking fuck...i though the last few replies were people joking around then read the random GM posts thread.

Jesus christ.

[Jace Solo]

I can't wait for more items that rip off professional abilities. Especially berserk casting armor.

I kind of agree with this...it's not the "best" part of berserk but it is a very special part of it...that's kind lame to normalize it in such a way.

To speak nothing of nullifying empaths. It seems kind of OP. I'd expect that in plat.

[Anebriated]

Im interested in seeing what other abilities are available that might be useful for warriors. Can we get a self-raise at the top tier? I bet Kaedra would still beat me to raising myself....

I put my reply up on the officials. Armor stealing 1635 is really kind of lame.

[Jarvan]

The armor stole a lot of abilities from a lot of people. Bard 1040 comes to mind as well.

[tyrant-201]

Don't see the issue with it. Not like warriors don't have access to many of the other professions' spells and it's not like it's not going to be a limited thing. Glad to see them releasing more cool stuff like that.

[Pereus]

I just think its kind of lacking originality stealing spells. If you're gonna go out of your way to create a new system of armor flares, at least don't cut corners and jack existing class spells.

Here's the breakdown I gave to the Plat folks a few days ago:

Instead of unlocking in a straight line set of tiers, this armor will now offer choices. Existing base armor (previously called Tier 1) will be considered Tier 0. One unlock (previously Tier 2) will be considered a Tier 1 unlock of the Charges tree. Tier 3 unlocked existing armor will be considered a Tier 3 unlock of the Charges tree. Previous tiers must be unlocked before later tiers are available.

General:
- Base functionality remains at 3 charges / day.
- Each upgrade increases the max daily armor charges by 1.
- Cost in charges is listed below for each ability

Escape Flare Chance Tree:
Tier 0 (default): 20%
Tier 1: 35%
Tier 2: 50%
Tier 3: 65%
Tier 4: 80%

Status Condition Tree:
Tier 1: Remove one random condition from the following list when the armor's escape ability triggers: stunned, prone/sitting/kneeling, blind. [1 armor charge]
Tier 2: Add web, bind, and rooted to the list of potential conditions in Tier 1. [1 armor charge]
Tier 3: Manually invoke (BESEECH) the status clear ability to manually remove a random condition, adding sleep, poison, and disease to the above. [2 armor charges]
Tier 4: Manually invoke (BESEECH) the status clear ability to remove ALL of the above conditions. [3 armor charges]

Healing Tree:
Tier 1: Manually (SHRUG) invoke to heal an amount HPs equal to 50% of max health. [2 armor charges]
Tier 2: Tier 1 + reduce all bleeding effects by half, rounding down. 2 armor charges]
Tier 3: Tier 2 + reduce severity of worst injury by 1 rank. [3 armor charges]
Tier 4: Tier 2 + reduce severity of all injuries by 1 rank. [3 armor charges]

Charges Tree:
Tier 1: Additional 3 max charges to the armor, as per old Tier 2.
Tier 2: Adds a short-duration sanctuary effect (90 seconds) to the arrival room upon a triggered escape. [1 charge]
Tier 3: Triggered escape ability takes player to safe room, as per old Tier 3. [2 charges]
Tier 4: Escape ability can be manually triggered (SLAP) to escape to safe room. A new exit from the room will take the player to a local fog location. [3 charges]

Your argument might have weight if other professions had access to warrior only abilities.

When I can berserk and assess and use guild skills with an item script available to anyone, then I'll concede the point.

[thefarmer]

The armor stole a lot of abilities from a lot of people. Bard 1040 comes to mind as well.

I see Paladin and empath copying, but no real bard theft.

[Jarvan]

So it would be ok if they added another tree of flares, and it gave non warriors, warrior only things? Like weapon bonding, or berserk, and such? I like that idea!


I see Paladin and empath copying, but no real bard theft.

Troubadour's Rally is invoked via SHOUT 1040. The spell will attempt to remove the following conditions from every group member of the Bard caster: calm, sleep, stun, immobility, web, and prone/sitting.

compared to...

Status Condition Tree:
Tier 1: Remove one random condition from the following list when the armor's escape ability triggers: stunned, prone/sitting/kneeling, blind. [1 armor charge]
Tier 2: Add web, bind, and rooted to the list of potential conditions in Tier 1. [1 armor charge]
Tier 3: Manually invoke (BESEECH) the status clear ability to manually remove a random condition, adding sleep, poison, and disease to the above. [2 armor charges]
Tier 4: Manually invoke (BESEECH) the status clear ability to remove ALL of the above conditions. [3 armor charges]

You are right, utterly different. Actually, for a single person, technically the armor is BETTER then the bard spell. Awesome.

[thefarmer]

You are right, utterly different. Actually, for a single person, technically the armor is BETTER then the bard spell. Awesome.

I consider Shout more of a group effect spell. That's why I see the Status Condition Tree more of a Paladin rip off. Especially considering it uses Beseech just like they do.

Give it a year, and there will be a T5 with group application.

Yes because in the past never once has any warrior ability been given to other profession, well except the half or more that paladins got, and any that are available by general Cman skills to anyone of course.

[tallkris3]

The condition tree isn't exactly far off from the majority of reasons warriors berserk either.

[Donquix]

This seems worse than the normal one offs in that it seems like it's kind of a new "thing" that will be around for a while. If it was a random limited edition auction quality piece or something, great. But if this is just a new service where anyone "lucky" (read as: all the usual suspects with coins to spare to buy spots and multiple accounts at events) can get after attending a few events, it's kind of shitty.

Doesn't really bother me, overall. It's not like GS is competitive with other players so, the specific item they have that makes their character superior to mine doesn't really matter to me.

[Ardwen]

if they base the adding of it like the did voln armor, your usual suspects would never be able to actually use this service since it wouldn't be able to be added to their armor.

[Jarvan]

if they base the adding of it like the did voln armor, your usual suspects would never be able to actually use this service since it wouldn't be able to be added to their armor.

True, and lets hope they do put a limit on it to a degree.

[Aluvius]

And if people do buy it up then it just means less sets of armor with more capabilities. Or it won't happen and there will likely be more sets of armor with lower capabilities. Seems to balance out either way if you're worried about the game being affected.

[Donquix]

if they base the adding of it like the did voln armor, your usual suspects would never be able to actually use this service since it wouldn't be able to be added to their armor.

does that stop most of them from monopolizing the services usually, anyway? :D

i mean, they'll pop up on the secondary market soon after if that's the case.

[Archigeek]

Now you guys know how wizards feel: familiars made lame by comparison to everyone else's pet, most of your spells readily available at every festival, everyone's got a bolt/ball spell, when they used to be pretty much a wizard thing, and ever since TD was divided into 3, they can't ward spirit spells for shit.

At least Dauntless is still pretty rare.

[Askip]

<< familiars made lame by comparison to everyone else's pet >>

I did not mind the rest of the Kerl's points but I have not been keeping up to date on the other professions pets, are they really that much better? One of my favorite uses for a familiar was a Gate rescue: send the familiar to the corpse, cast Gate, and tell familiar to return and stay. The gate usually stayed open long enough so I could go through it and then cast another gate to drag the body through. Very handy.

On topic, looks like I will not be returning in time for this years EG, darn. :D

New Ebon Gate Only Premium Transporter Messages on 09/28/2013 09:30 PM EDT
Links-arrows 5107
Reply Reply
I teased these at the Premium OOC Meeting tonight when I released the other new messaging options. There are three new Ebon Gate only transporter messages for Premium folks based on submissions from the Premium contest back in May. These will be offered at the festival, as well as the other three existing Ebon Gate only messages. Here they are, enjoy!



20 Skeletal Fog
1st person: As you turn (item), you feel an incredible weight pressing down upon every bit of your being. You hunch over, gasping for air and realize that your body is rapidly wasting away. Darkness folds about you as one last ragged cough comes from your lungs, collapsing your body into a pile of dust. Your body is stiff as you drag yourself slowly towards a light overhead. Pulling yourself up and out of a pool of miasmatic fog, you can't help but notice that you are nothing more than bones with the fog wrapping lightly about you. As you stand taller, the fog wraps itself thicker about your body, encasing you with muscle, flesh, and finally your belongings, before it drifts away.
Leaving: While turning her (item), Jainna’s face grows dark with worry. Her body begins wasting away before your eyes, skin sloughing off as her entire body wracks itself into a hunching spasm. As she gasps for air, none seems to come until one last ragged cough escapes from her lips. The effort of this last breath is all it takes to crumble her body and all her belongings into a pile of dust that is swiftly borne away on the wind.
Arriving: A pool of viscous, miasmatic fog rises up from the ground followed quickly by a skeletal hand shooting forth and pulling itself out of the foggy depths. As the skeleton stands upright on the ground, the fog wraps itself tightly about the body, quickly forming muscle, flesh, and finally various belongings as you see Jainna standing there before you, watching the last of the fog drift away.

21 Squishy Rats
1st person: Your hand brushes (item), and you are immediately doubled over by the intense pain of your insides moving around by their own accord. With a wet splortch, your vision shifts into a blur of incommensurable perspectives. You are unable to reclaim yourself as the world races by amidst the sound of high-pitched squeals. Just as you fear you are on the verge of madness, everything comes to a sudden, squishy stop. You seem to be whole once more and somewhere else entirely.
Leaving: Jainna touches her (item) and immediately doubles over in pain. Her skin bulges outward as her entire body morphs into a bulbous, pudding-like mass before your eyes. Suddenly, the mass bursts open with a wet splortch, and dozens of squealing, skittering rats run out in all directions! It seems they took Jainna with them.
Arriving: In a storm of high-pitched squeals and scratching claws, dozens of rats race in from all around you. Converging on a central point, they slam together into a column of sloshing rodent pudding that quickly solidifies into the form of Jainna.

22 Noxious Scents
1st person: You lightly touch your (item). The faint scents of sulphur, ether, and brimstone rise from beneath your feet. A keening, howling wind surrounds you, whipping at you violently. Your vision is completely obscured. Suddenly, you have a sense of ascension. Everything is blurred, and you realize you are effortlessly, but very rapidly, shifting from one location to another. Abruptly, you have a sense of descending, and then as quickly as the winds whipped up, they fade away as you hit the ground.
Leaving: The unmistakable smells of sulphur, ether, and brimstone rise from the ground near you. Jainna breathes deeply of these scents, and suddenly, a howling wind screams through the area and scatters the noxious odors. Then, as quickly as the winds whipped up, they fade away. You realize Jainna is no longer standing before you, apparently borne away on those same foul-smelling winds.
Arriving: The unmistakable scents of sulphur, ether, and brimstone rise from the ground near you. Suddenly, a full-blown maelstrom of screaming winds whips through the area, scattering these scents. Then as quickly as the winds whipped up, they fade away. You realize Jainna is standing before you with an amused smile on her face.

The rats are almost funny enough to make me want to change away from the Seagulls I had.

It's actually a $10.00 bump for adding characters, $9 if you are premium. I was hoping it was only $5, then I could take a few for special raffles and stuff.

Two lucky people will be able to obtain custom disk changers this year. The winners will be able to customize the following things:

1. The item itself (short description and a show, if wanted).
2. The messaging when the item is raised with no disk present.
3. The messaging when the item is raised and the disk actually transforms.
4. The short description of the disk.
5. The show for the disk (when people LOOK at it).

This is a delayed service and will require QC. Oh, and the winner can use it as much as they want!

I'll also have someone around to add charges to the ones that I'll be selling in a shop.

Enhancive Permanence? I guess I must have missed something... but does this mean that an enhancive item will be made so that it no longer loses charges? To take it a step farther, does this mean that all the weapons and armors that I've been finding which have "temporary" weighting/padding can be made to have "permanent", instead? I'm sure this was spelled out somewhere, but damn if I can find it.

Thanks,
Dan

Enhancive Permanence in this instance just means they will take a jewerly type enhancive that is currently crumbly and change it so that it will not crumbly when it runs out of charge. The answer to your two questions would be No and No.

[RSR]

No and No. It means enhancive items that crumble after they use up their last charge will be made to not crumble.

Instead of crumbling, it would then persist.

Ever wish your fusion armor could do... a bit more? Now, it can.

I've written a three tiered script solely for fusion armor users. There are 12 verbs, spanning 3 tiers. I'll have a merchant unlocking and also adding this new script to your old fusion armor throughout EG.

Also, all of the wares in the fusion sanctum have gotten cosmetic updates, and all armor now comes standard with this new script.

A preview of some of the off-the-shelf actions:

>wear leathers
You work your way into a set of pale green double leathers, taking care to align the orbs in their chambers properly before use.

>stare my leathers
Lamenting past battles lost and won, you hold your hand over a demon-marked sunset orange orb set in your green double leathers and stare blankly into the distance.

Looking pensive, Qortaz holds his hand over a demon-marked sunset orange orb set in his green double leathers and stares blankly into the distance.

>pull my leathers
You give a demon-marked sunset orange orb set in your green double leathers a slight tug, making sure it is still firmly seated in place.

The orb that is mentioned is based on whichever orb is "active". RUB will change the active orb, if there are more than one in your armor.

Dance!

My new script this year is...

Drum roll please?

Dancing shoes!

These shoes have several tiers and a LOT of possibilities. I got the idea months ago on the boards when someone suggested multi-tiered multi-option dancing shoes. And... well... here we are!

Let's see them in action, shall we?

Tier 1 (off-the-shelf)

(3rd person) Geltrude rises up on her toes before gliding across the ground in graceful, floating steps.

You plant your toe against the ground in front of you and shimmy forward, your shoulders twisting back and forth in a quick motion.
(3rd person) Geltrude plants her toe against the ground in front of her and shimmies forward, her shoulders twisting back and forth in a quick motion.


Tier 3 (both shoes twice unlocked) (part 1 - meaning, there is another verb at this level as well)

Felthrop takes a deep breath.

raise my boot
You idly twist your foot, digging your toe into the ground.

raise my boot at Geltrude (with Geltrude wearing dancing shoes)
You take Geltrude in your arms, leading her effortlessly in a slow dance.

raise my boot at Geltrude (with Geltrude not wearing dancing shoes)
You dance slowly up to Geltrude and gaze into her eyes.

raise my boot at Felthrop (self)
You slowly nod your head in a rhythmic pattern.

You lean close to Felthrop's chest, dancing with him slowly in a circle.

raise my slippers at Felthrop (with Felthrop not wearing dancing shoes)
You dance slowly up to Felthrop and gaze into his eyes.

raise my slippers at Geltrude (self)
You wrap your arms around your shoulders and sway gently from side to side, humming quietly to yourself.

To be continued...



Note: The messaging for RAISE changes for the following options (only a few of them showcased above):

Boy dancing with a boy who also has shoes set to dance with boys.
Boy dancing with a boy who's shoes are set to dance with girls.
Boy dancing with a girl.
Girl dancing with a girl who also has shoes set to dance with girls.
Girl dancing with a girl who's shoes are set to dance with boys.
Girl dancing with a boy.
Girl or boy dancing with a girl or boy who's shoes aren't unlocked as high.
Girl or boy dancing with a girl or boy who doesn't have on dancing shoes.
Boy dancing with himself.
Girl dancing with herself.
Untargeted dancing.

From this point and on, it's just as complicated, if not more so! So, I'll save the rest for my next post! :)

ANALYZE is quite verbose, as well.

You analyze your dark leather slippers and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:
A merchant can alter these slippers with a long description or a show, but the item must be a type of shoe with calf-length laces. Suggested nouns would be: slippers or sandals. Also, keep in mind that the script adds a switch automatically to the LOOK of the item.

This item has been fully unlocked and is Tier 4. It traps WEAR, REMOVE, LOOK, KICK, PULL, TURN, PUSH, RAISE, POKE, TOSS, POINT.
Additionally, RAISE, POKE, TOSS, and POINT can be targeted at another person.
Lastly, TOSS and POINT can be targeted at creatures and held objects.

You can tell that the slippers is as light as it can get.



And that's a wrap! See you at Ebon Gate! :)

Ebon Gate: Necropolis on 10/16/2013 03:06 PM EDT
Links-arrows 5231
Reply Reply
With introducing the Necropolis to Ebon Gate, we're also introducing a new-style hunting ground that I built from the ground up using some other systems we already had. It will generate leveled creatures to the character they spawn for. There are some precautions in the system to hopefully not allow players to make a mess like we had seen in Velathae's "Trick or Treat." But while we can test and test, things will slip through the cracks.

The Necropolis' main purpose is a quest, but you are more than welcome to visit it for hunting this year as well. It will be packed with undead and creepy-crawlies. There is also loot (not to be confused with the quest loot) to be had if you get lucky enough when searching around!

There are two ways to "complete" the Necropolis. One is to find the quest loot. The other is an "opt out" to leave the Necropolis. You can only find the quest loot once, and I strongly encourage you to read all disclaimers and messaging. You are more than welcome to group up (and grouping is encouraged) and tag along with friends, even if you completed the quest.

I'm also pleased to announce that Ebon Gate will have their own gem type now as well. The gems you found digging are all hand designed by GMs, and we still have those (and huge thanks to GM Liia, she has designed 50 brand new gems for this year). These gems will be the gems you find when you search a creature, break open a hidden treasure item, find a treasure chest, etc. You also have a chance to find these gems in digging as well. The SHOW descriptions might not be ready at the time of EG opening, but they will be set in place shortly after! There are 34 gems added to our gem system ranging in value! Big thanks to GMs Tamuz, Vanah, and Mestys on assisting with getting these gems into the system.

Just to let people know, despite confirming on the prime boards that shields were eligible for the armor resistance services, they were turned down in plat and claimed that resistances on shields and armor together did not play well together. Kind of a letdown.

[Allereli]

I designed this shop for the premie contest last year so I asked if I could update it for this year, and it seems some things got approved!


On the display table you see a plum leather satchel, a skull-shaped black onyx mortar, a brain-shaped pink marble pestle

anyone in plat mind inspecting the satchel and testing the jars?


a split-back pink conch shell, a cinnabar crystal, a large yellow diamond and a Kezmonian honey beryl.

for the lazy people, the split-bank pink conch shell is for the greater wisdom potion, the cinnabar crystal is for greater strength crystal, large yellow diamond for greater aura crystal, and Kezmonian honey beryl for radiant white soulstones (eoveneh potions)

I'll be running through starting today and working on things for the item list. Caithris is also working on the item list so it should be up relatively soon.

Gretchen

[Nilandia]

In the meantime, I've been working on updating the merchants listing for EG, since I'm assuming people are more interested in that for the moment. It includes a list of the shops, their locations, and which merchants might work in them. I've also included a separate listing of the merchants, where they might work, and what they do. I'll be adding more details as I get them, of course. http://gsguide.wikia.com/wiki/Ebon_Gate_2013_Merchants

Okay, I had a swing by your shop and poked around a bit.

The satchel is a plum leather satchel tooled with a band of alchemical symbols. It's shoulderworn, holds large for any number of items, and costs 25k.

The jars cost 3k and are 20-item gem jars.

thanks for checking it out. Meh, I told her they wouldn't sell unless they were 50-item

[KmberlynX]

thanks for checking it out. Meh, I told her they wouldn't sell unless they were 50-item

I would spend 3k on a 50-item jar, I can get a 20-item jar from the alchemist in Landing for like 540 silvers.

1 weapon of the winner's choice.
1 armor OR shield of the winner's choice.

Major wins, which will prevent your account from winning any other major raffles for the course of the event.

I'm going to go ahead and post times when my raffles will draw. I'll post again after each is set up, as well as send a message in game.

- Permanent custom disk changers: This raffle will be held in the Lounge area of Time for a Change. 2 winners will be selected, but they do not have to be present to win, only logged in somewhere. I will hunt you down and get your email address, since there will be some back and forth needed. These are NOT instant redemption and require QC. The winner will be able to customize the following things:

What the item looks like (statue, icon, totem, etc) with a short or long description
If a short description is chosen, the item can have a SHOW
What you and others see when you RAISE the item and your disk transforms
What you and others see when you RAISE the item and you either do not have a disk, or it is already transformed
What the disk looks like when you LOOK at it. This part is rather restrictive, as only 11 letters in the first 15 in the 15/15/15 can be altered.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Tonight, likely around 11pm eastern or so, give or take a bit, Captain Jellybeard will spin for a few lucky winners of shade-skinks! I hear the captain might also be tempted to auction one off...

I will spin for more winners on Saturday night, around the same time.

I will also announce a raffle during the week for the remaining evil little bastards.
