Subject: Live Services

When we started Duskruin, we wanted to shy away from live services. But I know there is a desire for it. And most the high-end services require a live GM to run it. Over the past runs, I have done some things on top of certificate redemptions like epic deepening and adding lesser Armor and Weapon moods.

This time around, I'll try to offer some things a little differently.

We'll try to offer deepening services again. Could try lightening too. We'll also try to offer unlock services to scripted items being sold at Duskruin. If time allows it, we can do some alteration of things sold at the Scrip Shop. All these services will cost bloodscrip. On the agenda we can try using the bloodscrip raffles again too.

I won't set times or guarantees on these things, but I'll likely offer them during the week.

Subject: Booklets & Jars

Hi friends,

You no longer have to TEAR dueling slips from the booklets or SHAKE the tokens out of the jars when you enter the sewers or arena. They will be deducted when you enter, just make sure to put them away before the fight begins!

Subject: Duskruin: Various Updates

Just so this is all in one place. Hope I have them all.

  • We've updated jars and booklets to allow you to enter without needing to TEAR or SHAKE.
  • Scrip pouch can now add all loose bloodscrip at once with RUMMAGE.
  • The arena has had several QoL adjustments.
    • Removed the steel golem and leopard, replaced with a shaggy tusked ursian, a mithril-veined krynch, and added a banded cave worm.
    • Allowed normal opponents to bleed again.
    • Breeze is now cleaned up when entering an arena room.
  • Totems can now be sold for a very small amount of bloodscrip to the archaeologist.
  • Legendary bloodrune now displays the name of the person when you LOOK at them, instead of the viewer's pronoun.
  • For clarification purposes, some information on bloodrunes.
    • Each Arkati, including the 3 stone giants, have a bloodrune associated with them in the Divine tier. This includes lesser and greater deities.
    • Classic tier currently only has 4.
    • The Legendary tier this time around is just the minotaur and it is exclusive to this run only. One has been found in both Prime and Platinum, but only Prime has created it.

Subject: FLASH SALE: 50-count Booklets and Jars

I've been getting a lot of requests for another sale on booklets and jars, and I previously thought we'd not run another sale this time around. But for today only, starting at 2pm ET, we'll have the 50-count booklets and jars at 10% off. This sale will last until 10pm ET tonight.

Good luck and have fun at Duskruin!

Quick correction/addendum on that listing of the expensive wants.

>>Rod - 1x - Prismatic Guard (12,500)
>>Wand - 1x - Arcane Decoy (12,500)
>>Baton - 1x - Mystic Focus (12,500)

These are actually multi-wands. They cast several spells at once. The spells listed at the first spell in the list, which caused the misunderstanding.

Enruned witchwood rod: 507, 508, 905
Sigil-encised wand: 1705, 1712, 1701
Heavy crystal baton: 1720, 1711

That's what they cast, once a day. Same as last time, didn't change.

The cloak in the Mar and Scar has been updated to weigh 3lbs. If you're one of the two people who bought it before this update in Prime, email me, and I'll come update it for you.

Subject: Scrip exchanger/Bloodrunes

>>What is going to be the tax for using this service?

It's 1% rounding down with a minimum of 1 bloodscrip. It's an all or nothing exchange.

>>Also, are bloodrunes going to be able to turned in for scrip?

Not bloodrunes, but the stones to make bloodrunes can be purchased by the archaeologist.

>>Can we get a list of what bloodrunes are the rarer ones so we don't do something stupid and exchange them? Or will there be a way to look at them and tell?

You can't sell a bloodrune once made. But you could technically sell the stone. There is some discovery required for this. The archaeologist will talk about them if you GIVE them to him. We'll monitor it to see how it's being handled. I just suggest people read the text that appears on the screen when dealing with these.

The legendary bloodrune is exclusive to this run only. And it's crazy rare.

There are 3 tiers released this time around. Classic, Divine, and Legendary. Classic are the most common. Divine are a bit more rare. And Legendary is rarer than a segment. The Legendary one this time around is an exclusive find at this run only. You become the minotaur that the artwork is based on.
