I love it when newbies get awesome gifts.

I remember before I had anything, I was sitting in the pearl of amberle waiting for a game of slippers to start, and Ironbeared popped up and handed be a present with a soap arti in it.

Herby-gemmy-clothy belts, so far!

I got a rock.

I said that to myself the second I clicked the link to come to this post. WTF universe.

Me too. >_> I just didn't want to be the one who did it.

Hmm probably the only useful artifact from this for me would be the magical soap, everything else is just zimoru bound credits!

I got a symbol of the gods which is like... one of the few artifacts I have no use for at all (and likely never will). So I traded it.

Ridley gave me a present that had a Marauder's Mask in it. I'll have fun with it for a few days and then I'll transend dreamweaving! I also got some gold and three pocketbelts.

I've got nothing. Someone mailed me a present with some liqueur in it though... but Neos doesn't drink.
Ironbeard better make his way to me a bunch of times like during the anniversary.

Pocketbelts, two bars of soap, and a paintbrush. Plus a clay flowerpot came out of a present I gave to someone else.

Happy happy.

Another present of pocketbelts that a friend opened...and I got a bit of gold.

You folks are lucky o.0

I should just go home early.

I got a Silver Compass of True Directions, which is the milestone artifact from the last auction, but let's me have 2 because I am already a bard. Finally these day-zero wounds can begin to heal. Thanks Estarra!

Whoa I would -love- one of those Silver Compasses! So immensely useful. I got a bunch of gold, but I don't even know how much because I was already carrying gold on my person.

40k gold, a flower pot, and a ruby ring.

You check the contents of your 3 pocketbelts:
126 rope 175 milk 176 coral
104 reishi 187 galingale 275 earwort
281 eggfeed 142 fruitfeed 617 bodoru
158 greentint 109 yellowtint 111 bluetint
142 redtint

You quickly unwrap a twinkling white present, which sprays glittering silver dust and cheerful confetti into the air, and excitedly pull a bar of golden soap from within.

Is it just me, or are there way more artifacts this time around?

Definitely more of the utility artifacts this round, which I absolutely adore.

Thank yooouuu Jolly and the gnooomes.

If so, it's a pretty good business strategy. Most people will trade in the artifacts for credits to purchase skills or other artifacts with, and will need to buy credits to round out what they need.

Soap, fairie wings and a paintbrush
