Introduction

In this tradition, started on Discord on January 11, 2019, I give teasers for a selection of doors, behind which lies a fairly obscure fact to discuss. The community votes and then I reveal the truth!


Unopened Doors

Door #1 - A weapon script used with a build even nicher than mutant!

Door #2 - A weapon script used not merely with a build even nicher than mutant, but only with a specific profession or in a group with that profession!

Door #7 - Working one of the steps of one of the artisan skills!

Door #8 - The factory line of creating products for your shop!

Door #9 - A niche way to make a certain much-lamented profession talent more tolerable!

Door A - A silver farming plan that doesn't involve skinning but does involve multi-accounting!

Door B - A little known secret about level 86+ group hunting in a certain seaside town!

Door C - Why you, yes you, should consider dragging your low level alts to capped bandits if they're on different accounts!

Door E - Benchmark information about one of GS' oldest abilities that to this day doesn't have a precise formula published!

Door G - Making progress while staying on node at all times... for a price!

Door I - A somewhat-known aspect of login boosts!

Door J - An Adventurer's Guild quirk for you group hunters!
