Private workshops haven't really meant shit since the old INFUSE based enchant system stopped being a thing.

they have the highest bonus, so that's something. But only for the one designated person who's workshop it is

[horibu]

The workshop can be attuned to a different character that is NOT the owner. It's likely Ardwen has done this, who the wizard it is attuned too though is anyone's guess.

Well that was awkward.

Imagine the good times that could be had doing voice overs with that video....

Request to please add some amount of W/P/S services to the monthly contest prize options

Ok, this has been approved, and has been added to PREMIUM 7:

11. 100,000 silvers worth of weighting, padding, or sighting. The 100,000 silvers may be used toward a discount of one, and only one, partial service.

What does this mean? Here are some examples (costs are purely for this example):

If you have a plain 4x broadsword with that has not been serviced within the current 60 day service window, it may cost 77k for 3 services, or 154k for 4 services. You can either take 3 services at no cost, or take 4 services and pay 54k to make up the difference. 4 services would be the maximum on this item from a win. You cannot have a 5th service.

If you have a 10x broadsword, the cost for a single service might be 318k. You could either decline to use the win on that item or make up the difference of 218k for a single service. This one service would be the only service you would receive.

In reviewing this (Spirit Guide (130)), I discovered a bug where the Spirit Mana Control benefit was not being applied. It should now be fixed. Such training can have a dramatic effect upon the severity of the nausea.

Here's hoping this helps a hell of a lot.

Damn, that seems like a pretty significant bug. Looking forward to seeing how it changes things!

>Can a NIR confirm that recipes such as this can actually be found via research in the library? Every time I try doing research I seem to get the same tired recipes over and over...

Yes there are a formulas that uses bezoars. I do not see any reason why they couldn't be learned through the library.

BRANDTJRT has provided a clue to what they may be used for. <grin> (His post here: http://forums.play.net/forums/GemSto...sions/view/966)

One thing to note, is that the color of the bezoar is what is important and not the creature it comes from.

Saw this elsewhere and wasn't sure where else to put this, but it has to do with stuff we often talk about here:

As for Briarmoon Cove, this was just a small area between Icemule Trace and Pinefar. The event itself has a loyal following, but the overall response of the event was lukewarm at best. It strongly boiled down to if you walked away with something, which many didn’t. And because the event was a short duration (weekend), it didn’t pull as much weight as the time to develop it. Only 171 accounts went to BMC between two runs, some people went twice, but that is the unique number of accounts who entered the event. This is about 25% to 33% of the average participation we see at our events in the last 3 years. Not including any SimuCon Goodie Bag, the last run of Summit Academy had a participation of 347 (with Goodie Bag it was closer to 600). The amount of hours sunk into BMC was greater than the majority of events in the last 8 years (Ebon Gate and Duskruin being outliers), and other than limited ticket sales, it performed very poorly in terms of revenue. GameMasters earnings are a percent of the revenue brought in, which we just call shares (the infamous beer and pizza money [which, by the way, isn’t the case. Top performing GMs can really supplement their income]). It was a creative event and one I know many GMs enjoyed working on, but it just wasn’t a great use of their time. Our plan is to scale it into a free event down the road (likely 2019).

I just applied a change to this script so that when a gem with "uncut" as the adjective is used in the box, the adjective for the box-style will replace the "uncut" adjective on the gem. This is the only time the style will replace the adjective. All other "cut" gems will have the style applied to the article of the gem.

Making player services more desirable than NPCs is always our goal. We're aware of the locksmith issues and have some ideas in mind, but nothing we're ready to talk about. It would not involve any down tweaks to the locksmith NPCs(edited)
