Dramube is one of the bubbles I've yet to find... Which plane? Elemental, cosmic or astral (are there even ones in astral?)


Prime. Dramube Triangle (246E, 115N) of the Aetherplex, according to the lore wiki.
Ssaliss2010-04-26 08:30:16
Hmm. Thought I got all the prime bubbles already... Time to go exploring!

Neither the pearl nor bloodstone rings work on Dramube, curiously enough (you'd think one would, considering they're sand waves), but the pearl ring does at least get more use in the Seas and such.

<---wouldn't mind if one of those rings were made to stop the sand waves. Ahemhem.

Dramube's sort of in the end of a wonky banana. Or possibly a croissant.

Hmm, does anyone have the golden monocle artifact? I'm a bit curious about it, like how quick is the diagnose other/seeing their defenses?

I always kind of assumed it gave SUCCOR, which is instant. But I don't have one, so dunno.

The same eq cost as DIAG, I'm pretty sure.

^^

This. It's not succor at all.
Esano2010-04-27 13:33:30
I've been told it's .5s eq, which is I think faster than diag.

I don't have timestamps here, but it "feels" like the same length, diagnosing someone else and myself.

If anyone wants to play with one, I just dropped it at Deepnight's fulcrux.
Valestrix2010-04-27 19:40:28
Awesome, thanks for the responses. Will help me consider on if I want the pack with it or not. happy.gif

Subj: Dingbat Tradeins and Artifact Substitutions!

Two new features have been added:

o You can now trade-in all dingbat items at 2/3 value for sticky
dingbats. (There was a bug that allowed trading in dingbat items for
bound credits but that has been fixed and is no longer possible.) Sticky
dingbats work like normal dingbats except they cannot be transferred.
Syntax: ARTIFACT TRADEIN

o If you happen to have an artifact that is an upgraded version of
another artifact you own, you can substitute the lower version for full
value in bound credits. For example, if you purchase a Cosmic Knight
Rune (like for an artifact package!) and already have a Puissant Knight
Rune, you can substitute the runes which will place the Cosmic Knight
Rune wherever the Puissant Knight Rune is and give you a refund in bound
credits refund for the full value of the Puissant Knight Rune.
Syntax: ARTIFACT SUBSTITUTE


Hopefully that all makes sense!

I'm still open to suggestions for more artifact packages!
Kiradawea2010-05-02 00:20:40
Hrm. So basically you can tradein a rune for a rune of lower value? In the same tree I mean. So level 3 bleeding rune can become level 2 bleeding rune and some credits?

No, basically if you happen to have 2 runes, you can get a full refund for the lower one (if they're of the same type). If you happen to have a level 3 bleeding rune and a level 2 bleeding rune, the level 3 will take the place of the level 2 and you'll get a full refund for the level 2.

EDIT: Basically its being able to use these artifact packages for upgrading runes if you already have lower level runes.

This is definitely clearer than the announce post.

I'd really like to see a "flexible artifact sale" of some kind, maybe as a later promotion.

In the meanwhile, maybe something more geared to specific trades?

For example:

Spellcrafter's Package - 475cr total

Gloves of Mastery - 400cr
Great Rune of Spacial Expansion - 75cr


or:


Master Chef Lusternia (I know, I'm sorry) - 400cr total

Magic Spatula - 300cr
Silver Spoon - 100cr
Doman2010-05-02 01:11:05
we need a Hallifax/Gaudiguch Style fate deck
Acrune2010-05-02 01:19:22
What's a fate deck?

There is no 'Glomdoring' deck either, (No, the fae deck just doesn't give off that Glom feel)

I also would love to see trade package(s). (specifically something with Gloves of mastery and a paintbrush would be awesome. Something I would have a hard time passing up)
