What? Who told you that? Also, what part are you trying to do? You have all five lines, you should be able to go do the Mirror Army quest now. Wondering what the bug is too, dreamers is the only part I've seen consistently bug up, and that's rather annoying.


Cityrank One cannot perform an organization's epic quest.

No clue about Gaudiguch's power quest - I've seen quite a lot of people doing it, on a quick skim of your power log, so it's working just fine afaik.

It is for me specifically that it doesn't work. I got some rocks made and got another guy up to Drachou. Drachou just ate the rock I gave him, but when the other guy gave a rock to Drachou, he spat out a butterfly like he tends to do.

And yeah, I'm trying to do the first part. But before I can do that, I'm supposed to BOW (I think it was that emote at least. I was told the specific emote by one who had just done it, so I did test it several times with the correct one) before Drachou and get the instructions to do so. He doesn't give those instructions, so I'm hesitant to go and do the quest, only to find that I need to redo it again, because it was indeed bugged.

It has to be that you can't do it at CR1, then. The power quest may be bugging for you because of the fact you're on the step of the honour quest. Not like you'll lose your progress on the honour quest, just participate in the next revolt, write a book, or defend or raid or something to get some favours so you can finish it up!

Heck if you're CR1, just get some scholars/bards or otherwise add 100 power to the Flame in one "weave".

or bring in 200 power
or bring in scholars/bards
or donate 50,000 gold

We have cr2 and cr3 set as ez-mode to get.

I do defend. I wrote about four pages worth about what freedom is, and so on. Still no favour. tongue.gif

I'll get that rank. I'm just annoyed that it took months before someone notified me of this.
Arath2010-08-25 16:06:53
Yeah. I tried that. Sources of bards and power tended to dry up right before I got over the edge needed for a rank. Quite funny actually.

I find that hard to believe. Clearing one of the four elemental planes once gives you over 100 power worth of essence (assuming a couple of the Fire Lords are empowered, which they are), and I've yet to see all four planes empty at a time. Just clear Fire twice, confirm with an aide, message Kalin "I put in 200 power, give me CR2", done.
Arath2010-08-25 17:07:33
I only recently figured out an actual way to get to the elemental planes. But thank you for bugging in on matters you have nothing to do about.

He was providing a solution to your expressed problem.

No need to be so spiteful because you want to ignore it and pretend it isn't there.

Anyone who emos in public should expect to be reminded that they're probably emoing over something silly.

Ok, time to cancel this conversation before it gets ugly.

Message a council member, it sucks but people do get missed. I'm sorry to say it, but you can't keep expecting people to take notice of you, you have to make people take notice of you. It's really the only way to get ahead, to get CR6 (despite being part of the Cool Kidz Club), I had to pester Kalin constantly over things I had done.

It might not be too late to still get favours for some of the past things, and while my character may on occasion appear standoffish or distracted (I do lots of things at the same time), if you send her a tell, she'll be more than happy to bring you up to fire quickly.

Just trying to offer my two cents in the conversation in order to help. sad.gif
Gregori2010-08-25 17:42:52
Pretty sure you getting rank or doing the epic quest in the city I and the people commenting are leaders of.. makes it something of our business.

I could be wrong though.
Arath2010-08-25 17:51:54
Yes. Yes you are.

Some of you guys seem pretty tense. Have an ice cream or something, you'll feel better. Pretendy fun time games, don't stress so much.

Content: Drawing up a portrait of Hoaracle, and it's coming along in the most awesome way possible. I can't wait to submit the finished product for Artisinals.

I don't think your guild rank is high enough to eat our ice cream.

These aren't pretendy fun-time games. IRE games consume your life and eat your soul, like crack cocaine or heroin. We rage for hours with glomrage or monkrage or gaudibs, occasionally smashing things while screaming. (I've lost a laptop to lusternia). This is the validation of our existence, because it has consumed every other aspect of our lives. We work so we can buy credits. We learn advanced statistics and how to code so we can raid and zerg and lolwtf our enemies and gain power and GLOOORRRRRYYYY! Fai'Glomdoring!

Erhem.... ignore that.

As I was saying, pretendy happy funtime games... with extra addictive soul consuming goodness... hence the need for our local friendly mods.

I found Gaudiguch refreshingly easy to gain cityrank in. There are clearly stated goals that anyone can perform, up to CR3. That was a nice change from desperately waving your hands to try and gain the attention of someone who can favour, and hoping they'll consider whatever you've been doing worthy, without arbitrarily deciding that you've been trying too hard to gain their attention, and are just trying to gain rank and therefore don't deserve it.
