Are cooks able to create recipes for teas, or is there only the four brewmeister teas?


Yes, there are quite a few custom teas, such as...

"bottle157681" a bottle (filled with black rose tea)
"bottle158595" a bottle (filled with revitalising black tea lemonade)
"bottle84022" a bottle (filled with white rowanberry tea)
"bottle107645" a bottle (filled with summery citrus green tea)
"bottle98396" a bottle (filled with orchid and orange blossom oolong tea)

Intriguing. Thank you!

One more question. Zimoru, or whatever that artifact reagent is for beastmastery. Does that just "reroll" the beast's appereance, or how does that work?
Kiradawea2009-07-17 18:13:49
It only rerolls the appearance. If you can get appearance X, Y and Z according to the food you've given, you'll get one of those. It might be the same appearance as you originally had though, so be careful.

And you wont get a huge change unless you dramatically change what you've fed it since it matured.
Xiel2009-07-17 20:24:02
As they've posted above, if you want to have a drastically different looking beast, you need to feed it a different diet than you have currently going on. If you simply want a chance at a different look within the same range of your current beast's diet, then using the zimoru now might do it, though be cautioned against the warnings they've written above.

Maneuver question now! I got two different answers, so...

If I have a maneuver, let's say called 'strike', and I give it the lowest level wound for every limb - if I hit gut, will the gut wound have 100% chance of happening, since it's the only gut wound in the maneuver, or still only 1/5?

No. Maneuvers work like this:

Hit.
Add wounds.
Roll dice.
Look at affliction table: Apply highest level affliction that the die roll allows to the target.

Example afftable:
<100: Nothing
>100: knockdown
>200: breakleg
>300: mangleleg

If I rolled 250, I would deliver breakleg since that is the highest possible aff defined by the table. What maneuvers do is let you specify the affliction table to use, thus making it so that if, say, you rolled high enough for a breakleg but your maneuver only allows knockdown, you will deliver the knockdown affliction, and never breakleg. So your table would then look like this:

<100: Nothing
>100: knockdown

So now the same roll of 250 delivers knockdown instead of breakleg.

Quick edit: Someone should pin a post like this so that people stop asking about maneuvers....

Basically, you still have a chance to not deal an affliction, but if you DO get an affliction role, it will only be the afflictions you list, provided the minimum wound level has been met.

If I requested my cubix customized to a Rubix Cubix, do you think that'd be too ooc and silly, or if it would make people chuckle a bit?

Given that the default description for the cubix is very nearly identical to a Rubik's Cube, and that the other transplanar artifacts are similar puzzles (most obviously the transplanar prism and the pyramid puzzle), I'm sure that puzzles like this are the inspiration and intentionally appropriate (must be Estarra's a fan). Following that lead, I customized one of my pyramid puzzles to be a Loyd's 15 puzzle, only with musical notes instead of numbers.

I liked that show....made me sad when they canceled it.

Anyone know how much DMP (if the damage reduction aspect is even measured in DMP) a magictome provides to its damage types, by any chance?
