There are a few shops this run that had a single item or update done to them. This doesn't technically fall into the "refresh" category. Once I have a full list, I'll add it here.

Teaser 1

Portable Alcohol Still - New Updates/Features!

Some new features are being released for the portable alcohol stills at Duskruin this August. This includes new recipes, new adjectives, new possible flavors, and a new ability to let you create chocolate liqueurs (yes, the edible candy kind). Please read the forum post for more details for what's on tap!

Teaser 2

This run of Duskruin, the Trapper's Shack will have a new nook that sells somnis armor and armor accessories. These armor pieces will have a standard flare chance to put the attacker to sleep on a successful strike to an area that is covered by the armor. That is to say, a head shot to someone wearing a somnis helm will have the chance to put the attacker to sleep.

Full armor sets for the metal armors will be available (no leather armors or lower), as will helms, greathelms (neck & head), arm greaves, and leg greaves.

Greater somnis upgrades for armor may be made available, and a separate announcement will be sent if/when that occurs.

Teaser 3

The Inyexat have expanded their spore magic weaponry to bows and crossbows, available exclusively at The Fairy Ring on the outskirts of Bloodriven Village. These ranged weapons have all the same benefits as the Spore Staff. You will find some of your special attacks have appearances more fitting to a bow.

Additionally, they have tweaked some of the magic involved so that you can speed up the rate of the ambient spore behavior, as well as make it so the spores will no longer show up in your features, if you are so inclined to be more discreet. This will be an automatic update to existing weapons--no unlock required for these fluff changes.

raise yumi at kobold

 You aim your nightwillow yumi at an upward angle, an ethereal arrow dense with twilight purple motes materializing.  After launching into a spectaular arc, the intangible projectile plummets until its tip burrows into the ground before a kobold.  The arrow unfurls rapidly into a near-black violet webcap and swells to an eruption of explosive spores.

  The twilight purple spores churning around a kobold simultaneously burst into an explosion of coruscating blue-black dust!
 [SMR result: 408 (Open d100: 31)]
    ... 40 points of damage!
     Well-focused strike generates a clean, round hole straight through the kobold!
 The kobold crumples to a heap on the ground and dies.
 Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
