I was seriously pissed when I discovered that I SOMEHOW had never hit 10 prestige on Alura despite having the highest honor of all my characters. Damn archers! I would have been General but prestige screwed me over AGAIN. Also lost Lordship I was awarded in Far East because of a lack of prestige, again.
My only character with great prestige is, IRONICALLY, my warrior-hero turned Priest from Belluaterra. F*ck, the one guy who doesn't need prestige. :-P
