The Brooch of Lumnis is a quintuple orb brooch that can be purchased from a monk in the Needle of Pentas during the Trials of Lumnis.

The brooch is a pin-worn item that has five benefits. The benefits can be changed at this event via the TURN verb an unlimited amount of times. The brooch can be set to another benefit once a month outside of the Rings of Lumnis event. To change it to something outside of the event, you will need to make your way to the DragonSpine Fane and seek the niche dedicated to Lumnis there. (Lich Room ID: [Zul Logoth, Ancient Passage - 26072]) You will have an hour after you make the decision to change it if you want to change it back, but after that, there is a month cooldown. The brooch also unlocks verbs that do cosmetic changes to your character as well as additional messaging for your relic after completing a number of increments to your brooch. The SHOW is:

Four gold rings filled with clear orbs form the base for a fifth ringed orb to rest upon. A collection of minuscule gears and springs maintains the placement of the orbs, while a small dial appears to control which piece appears in the center. A sturdy pin on the reverse side allows the brooch to be attached to garments, while a tiny hasp secures it in place.

Focused in the center of the brooch is a bright black orb surrounded by a red aura.

Analyze

You analyze your quintuple orb brooch and sense that the creator has provided the following information:
   
The quintuple orb brooch is a Rings of Lumnis event prize.  It is not attuned to your account.  It has been used in the following number of runs during the Rings of Lumnis:
   
  Planar: 10, resulting in +100 field experience capacity
  Spiritual: 10, resulting in the ability to instantly absorb 100 experience
  Elemental: 10, resulting in the 10% chance to reroll various checks while on Adventurer's Guild tasks
  Chaos: 305, resulting in a bonus of 600 + up to a 10% bonus when used for other orbs
  Order: 10, resulting in +100 bounty points when turning in Adventurer's Guild tasks
   
These bonuses are only active while the brooch's effect is active or when triggered and it is not on cooldown.  It is currently set to Chaos, which will use the Planar benefit when next activated.  You may freely change the focused orb while at the Rings of Lumnis event, but outside of it, you must seek Lumnis' shrine in the Ancient Passage in Zul Logoth.  From there you may change the orb every 30 days.
   
Daily uses reset at midnight.  You have used each orb:
  0 out of 3
   
The following verbs are available to use with it: rub, turn, tap, cover, tickle, spin, push, touch, and pull.
   
You can tell that the brooch is as light as it can get.

Orbs & Function

Each orb can gain charges based on how many runs of the Trials of Lumnis are done on any given Ring when visiting Liabo through the Needle of Pentas.

Planar Spiritual Elemental Chaos Order
Lumnis' Enlightenment Lumnis' Vigor Lumnis' Fortitude Lumnis' Divergence Lumnis' Repose

Upgrading Brooches

The brooch can be upgraded quite a bit. It starts out gaining benefits very rapidly, but slows downs as the potency becomes stronger. Planar, Spiritual, and Order take the total you have and directly add it to the benefit. Elemental is a bit different in that the number translates to a percent bonus where +100 equals 10 (always rounding down). Chaos will randomly select one of the other benefits with a chance to be up to 10% more of a bonus.

The brooch MUST be activated to use. Spiritual is instantly used. The others stay active for thirty (30) minutes. The brooch starts off at 1x/day, but with many runs, you can begin to gain additional uses. Gaining extra uses takes the entire's brooch's progress into account, not just the specific benefits, as does unlocking verbs. Don't worry about memorizing the numbers. ANALYZE the brooch for details on your progress and brooch benefits.

The brooch is account attuned (only one allowed per account), but passing the brooch off is completely your responsibility. The cooldown resets at midnight. ANALYZE provides much information, such as: the unlocked verbs, the number of times it has been used today, and the currently selected orb (also available via LOOK).

If you need to respec which benefit you've assigned runs to on your brooch, you can do so by speaking to the NPC at the center of the zone and they charge 50k silver per run that is reassigned.
A lithe giantkin monk nods slowly and says, "You want to know more about changing the allocations of your trials? I am able to do this for you as long as you're holding the brooch in your right hand. In addition, there will be a charge for my time. For every rank that I transfer, it will cost you 50,000 silvers. It's a painless process on your end, and all you have to do is ASK MONK ABOUT EXCHANGE <# of ranks> <RING to move from> <RING to move to>."

Dyannae continues, "I will ask your approval first before making any changes to your item."

2021 Upgrade Option

ASK MONK ABOUT UPGRADE. For the cost 1,000,000 silver, your brooch will be unlocked for these new benefits:

1) You will able to change the selected orb (benefit) from anywhere and at anytime.
2) The previous orb bonus capped at 1,000. Additional runs will now continue to add to it at the rate of +1 per 10. i.e. you will be able to instant absorb more than 1,000 experience, boost your field experience pool by more than 1,000, earn more than 1,000 bonus bounty points, etc. The increased bonus doesn't apply to the Elemental orb since it's a percent chance for an additional roll when performing Adventurer's Guild tasks and caps at 100%.
3) The normal brooch calculates its uses per day by taking the total of all runs across all the orbs in the brooch. By upgrading it, you get a separate cooldown and uses per day for each orb (benefit). So if have 500 runs in Planar and 750 runs in Spiritual, you can use your brooch 3 times per day for the Planar benefit AND 4 times per day for the Spiritual benefit.

All rings except spiritual stack duration if rubbed multiple times. For example at 100 runs you could rub the brooch while planar is selected to get an hour of the extended exp pool.

x/Day Targets

In the case of the spiritual brooch bonus, the amount of experience absorbed is limited to the size of a characters field experience pool. Higher thresholds therefore require increased pool sizes. This is most easily accomplished with the planar brooch bonus.
