The Best of Duskruin Shopping for Mid Winter 2022
TITLE | ITEM DETAILS | SHOP | MAP/ROOM | WIKI INFO |
THE SATURDAY NIGHT EVENT | All the fun, all the RP, all the good-natured jabs at the Arena combatants, with friends! Why not schedule your next ENDLESS Arena at 11:30pm Saturday night? | Northern Most Viewing Stands Room | ||
SKIRTING THE EDGE | Buccaneer Skirts are everything a pirate could want, from flaunting your legs with a high slit for the daring, to making prisoners beg with a dagger fit for sly scaring! You can even dance a jig, and you probably will after finding out there’s no fiddling around with unlocks either—they’re full featured off the shelf at the Yarrrpee Shoppe, including three unique fields for merchants to alter to your fancy! "No contest," Leafiara said, "These are my new favorite skirts for the rogues and the roguish at heart!" | BVShop:Yarrrpee Shoppe | Lich room 26877, Map room 16, go dark wagon | Buxom Buccaneers/Skirt |
ARMOR-NO ARMOR | If you've ever wanted to have the Rikelle Morphing Armor script, the colorful cocoon curio in the HESS is your chance... and for a measly 2,500 bloodscrip! Cylnthia was impressed, "An absolute steal to get this added to an existing set of (unscripted) armor! And remember, Xerria can unlock these, too, for Premium players!" | High End Scrip Shop/shop list February 2022 | Lich room 26907, Map Room Marked H at North end of Arena area, go tunnel | Morphing Armor |
HEAD WEAR SPIRITS | Traiva raved, "The rooting feature on the Animalistic Spirit Headdress (it's from the Avatar) is so helpful! I also appreciate that it can show in my features, or stay hidden, and I'm looking forward to the unlock so I can have my bobcat at my side." These also help build affinity on other Animalistic Gear. Look for them at the Heady Spirits Shop. | BVShop:Heady Spirits | Lich room 26874, Map room 18, go stone shed | Animalistic Spirit Headdress |
SWEETS FOR THE SWEET | The pie, cake, and scone boxes at All You Knead will make you the life of any party. Whever you go, you can bring your own treats that the new Confection Creators make each day. "Free treats and sweets daily!", Leafiara exclaimed. Each has plenty of recipes to spice up the variety too! | BVShop:All You Knead | Lich room 26893, Map room 8, go canted building | Confection Creator |
LAST CALL | The Bare Aggression UAC items come fully unlocked, enchanted to +30, and have flares and zests. Plus, the honey suede is lovely. Get them before Dusk Ruin is over as this shop is not returning. Suzetta's pick was a pair of supple honey suede boots burned with archaic runes and some double wrapped honey suede gloves with sharpened studs. | BVShop:Bare Aggression | Lich room 26886, Map room 9, go knotty hall | Bare UAC |
DISGUISE YOUR SHIELD | Cylnthia spotted a way to add the Grobey Shield-Morphing script to your favorite (unscripted) shield, with a copper shield-shaped ornament at the HESS. At just 2,500 bloodscrip, it's another great buy, and can even be made even more zesty by the wonderful Miss Xerria when she visits on Mist Harbor on a monthly-ish basis! | High End Scrip Shop/shop list February 2022 | Lich room 26907, Map Room Marked H at North end of Arena area, go tunnel | Grobey shield |
ARCANE GOODIES | Gamac's Goods has great general adventuring needs every run. Maevie told us, "The uncurse and mystic focus crystals are a regular go to for me. Plus, the crystal holding jewelry makes the crystals quickly accessible, a blessing if you are hunting in the Rift and grab an urglaes fang." Which are your favs? | BVShop:Gamac's Goods | Lich room 26845, Map room 21, go stone shop | |
ZESTED FOR PERFECTION | Lesser moods have finally arrived in the HESS with a tiny polychromatic ring (add lesser moods)! Leafiara gives this a big BUY recommendation, "This is the one and only budget option for the subscript slot on your gear, at only 2500 bloodscrip, and it’ll beautifully spice up your weapons and armor with ambient messages suited to almost anything that can occupy your flare slot, be it flares or increased TD." (Even if you change flares later, the moods adjust to the new ones!) All this with no effect on gear difficulty makes them a breezy, satisfying, and affordable fluff addition to the gear you already love. | High End Scrip Shop/shop list February 2022 | Lich room 26907, Map Room Marked H at North end of Arena area, go tunnel | Mood script |
HEELED ATTACKS | Suzetta found a pair of grey leather ankle-boots on short heels at Gamac's Goods. "UAC boots with heels? And they are +30 enchanted with grapple flare? YES!" | BVShop:Gamac's Goods | Lich room 26845, Map room 21, go stone shop | |
SURROUND YOURSELF | Be Warez has another stellar run of Illusion Props to fancify yourself with. Leafiara spoke candidly about them, "I especially think this is something to look forward to for sorcerers (a silhouette of green-black flames), water- or ice-centric characters (your choice of snowflakes, bubbles, fish, and ice), and nature-themed characters (moss and other flora springing beneath your feet), yet my very favorite might be the crackling air or lightning-powered forearms options." Just too much good stuff! | BVShop:Be Warez | Lich room 28327, Map room 16, go lopsided shack | Illusion prop |
PIRATE ATTRACTION | Jinji really liked the ebon wand at A Pirate Looks at Four Teas which can be used to attract enemy ships while sailing. It can even be further unlocked for more per day charges. This is going to be a run-away best seller! | BVShop:A Pirate Looks at Four Teas | Lich Room 26850, Map room 2, go teak bungalow | BVShop:A Pirate Looks at Four Teas |
ENHANCED APPEAL | "I love the enhancive gloves and socks in the VanityWear line at You're So Vain. They can be unlocked to increase the enhancement," Maevie was overheard saying. The best part? You wear them in places not normally used for enhancives! This was a fantastic and useful find! | BVShop:You're So Vain | Lich room 26837, Map room 21, go colorful tent | VanityWear/saved posts |
FLARING FINALITIES | The Fatal Afflares shop is at it again with a new selection of custom flare messages joining all the old favorites. This run adds what appear to be many new Arkati-themed options alongside more general purpose messaging that’ll make your flares “unrelenting,” “ruthless,” “brutal,” or other words to convey that they pack a punch! And if that’s not enough, you Kai followers and literalists can even summon magical fists to *really* pack a punch! | BVShop:Fatal Afflares | Lich room 29844, Map room 8, go dark structure | Bloodriven Village/saved posts#February 2021 |
FANCY SCHMANCY ENHANCIVES | Shodwen is learning about the the VanityWear for sale at You're So Vain. Are you intrigued by the Zesty companion pieces? Oh, and they have various Stats Enhancives, too! | BVShop:You're So Vain | Lich room 26837, Map room 21, go colorful tent | VanityWear/saved posts |
METAL TALK | At just 5 bloodscrip a shot to acquire a random forging slab from a pool of numerous metals, Leafiara thinks the slab generator is one of Bloodriven's best-kept secrets of mechanical value! "I usually spend in blocks of 1000, evaluate my pile of slabs after stuffing them into lockers, and always come out feeling like I've won huge in the long run. You only need the time and patience to follow through on forging weapons!" | Lich Room 25388, near the Smithy | Duskruin primer#The Slab Generator | |
BAM! | With the Bare Aggression shop on its final run, Leafiara reminds us, "I'd be remiss not to recommend one last time that the line of 250 bloodscrip flaring UAC gear is the best value budget brawlers could buy at Bloodriven, judging by mechanical bang for their bloodscrip. That's less than the cost of one arena win per item and the elemental flares will really up your unarmed combat game!" | BVShop:Bare Aggression | Lich room 26886, Map room 9, go knotty hall | Bare UAC |
KNIFE FIGHT | If you're a dagger wielder on a budget, check out the Knifery! Its Fighting Knives were amazing for budget buyers (and high-end buyers too!) in the shop's debut six months ago, but it's stepped up even further by offering a drakar option this time. Since drakar has natural fire flares, that means that for just 3500 bloodscrip, you'll have a weapon with two flares! To put that into perspective, the next cheapest option for a double flaring dagger would cost 18,000--over five times as much--by buying a non-drakar Fighting Knife and a common flare cert at the HESS. Don't overlook this one! | BVShop:The Knifery | Lich room 26861, Map room 29, go little shack | Fighting Knife |
MARKED UP | The Magic Markers are great for sorting your common magic items to identify at a glance whether they're charged, greened, or any other classification you like! Rare merchants can alter the shapes that the gravers or burins stamp. (Paintbrushes only do colors.) Even limited to "just" shapes, you have options--my unlocked graver can stamp a torus or triquetra! (Maybe in the future I'll get a quatrefoil, heptagram, nonagon, lemniscate, or balbis...) | BVShop:Make Your Mark | Lich room 26876, Map room 17, go stone tower | Magic Marker |
HOLY POTION | The sparkling white elixir at the Spellbound gives you a -500 difficulty boost for a sanctify cast. Eklectic is pleased about it, "I would not be able to get the holy flares without it." Note: You won't find it listed at the wiki page, but it IS there. | BVShop:Spellbound | Lich room 26877, Map room 16, go narrow space | Sanctify (330) |
ALL THE SPARKLE | The Gem Pile at Duskruin is the only source for a number of unique gems. You will find the pile below the arena near where the archaeologist meanders. SEARCH GEM when you see the pile and show them off in your Veola, Joola and other gem-holding items or use them for alterations. | Lich Room 26093, Underground Temple, Core | Duskruin primer#The Duskruin Gem Pile |
