Is that a custom emote thing from an auction? /curious

Envious of cities which can use cheap, easily-maintained, long-lasting enchanted paintings to help novices reach hard-to-find parts of the cities, Serenwilde contracted to get some kind of enchanted paths to reach hard-to-find places like our arena and stage. What we got is a quest that makes such paths in the form of rainbows, which takes about an hour to bring up, and only last a few hours or days once you do; so while they're cute as heck, they're wholly unsuited for their original purpose -- you can't tell novices to use them since odds are they aren't there when it's time to use them. And who's going to spend an hour to make a path that saves a minute? (We also got no control over where they go, so they don't go to the harder-to-reach places.) But it's okay -- we only had to pay three million gold for them!

However, they are good for one thing: showing to Ialie during her very, very rare visits. Plus since they're objects you can paint them.

(The quest would have been delightful, if it had created the paths, and then that was that. Or if the paths lasted on an order comparable to how long between upkeeping paintings. We were very surprised when they faded after a day or so, and the rainbows have been raised only a few times since, mostly because someone felt like doing the quest, not for the paths themselves.)

The rainbow quest gives an ego blessing right? Maybe people will do it more for that.

Request that the rainbows stay up longer?

Doesn't sound too hard to fix. Unless the reset-code on things is vastly more complicated then it seems, it should simply be a matter of moving the decimal a few spaces over.
Lawliet2010-04-14 22:01:10
You say that but at the same time I recall one of the gods, I think Charune, saying that changing the rewards for a quest wasn't as simple as people though, could be the same for timers.

Rather long, but...

QUOTE
Sniffing at the air, a great brindle mastiff stands here with a cheerful demeanor.

A great beast of an animal, this mastiff weighs well over a hundred pounds. Its large muzzle and droopy jowls a deep black, the large canine's body has a rich brindle coat, splotches of varying colours forming an attractive, semi-striped look. Beneath his large head is a deep chest with soft, snowy-white fur in a star-like burst at its fore, a long line of it trailing down underneath. Short, powerful legs keep this large mastiff close to the ground, and large, clawed paws allow him easy movement over any terrain. His eyes, deep black rimmed with brown irises, carry a soulful, happy light within them, as his long floppy ears flap about with every movement.
