Too many insipid unique items
« Topic Start: March 14, 2013, 09:47:37 PM »
It is rather sad: I have 6 unique items on my advy, but  half of them have rather insipid names, such as "Tempus' xxxx of xxxx", or " something of Edairn". My question is, what do other advies do with items that they can't sell? Just give them away or let them break?

I'll buy the Tempus things if they're reasonable in price. :P

Edmund has sort of started collected Tempus stuff, too, actually. So, he'd buy something probably.

Have you tried selling the Edairn item/s to the Lord of Edairn? I would totally buy an item that had the name of my region in it. If you ever find "the Something of Hatdhes" or "the Something of any Arcaean region", let me know.

I did see the message about the Lord of Edairn going inactive, but for some reason had it in my head that Edairn was one of our southern regions and not in my duchy, so I ignored it.

We'd be happy to make it one of our southern regions. ;>

 :o ;D ;D ;D

If you have a character in Kindara, you should have seen the list.

For others who might be curious:

Cursed Helm of Alanurs
Tempus' Chain Mail of Strength
Tempus' Collection of Edairn
Dazzling Gauntlets of Blood
Tempus' Necklace of Edairn

Have you tried selling the Edairn item/s to the Lord of Edairn? I would totally buy an item that had the name of my region in it. If you ever find "the Something of Hatdhes" or "the Something of any Arcaean region", let me know.

I did actually offer to the previous lord, but he must have been inactive already.


I'll buy the Tempus things if they're reasonable in price. :P

Well, they aren't getting me/my character anything just by carrying them around  :(

PS: as you've likely figured out, my advy is around Edairn quite a lot.  ;D
That's his home region, so he sometimes gets a home advantage when hunting near it.

Sorry, actually haven't shared it yet :p Waiting to hear about the bonuses so they can be included in the pitch. (I spammed you with a couple of letters in a row, I should probably avoid playing battlemaster while having a phone conversation...)

Tempus' Collection of Edairn

I've never heard of a Collection item before. Which unique item slot does it occupy?

It's a book.

http://wiki.battlemaster.org/wiki/Tempus%27_Collection_of_Edairn

Didn't ever do a write-up about it though.

PS: While some of the names might be quite insipid, they have some interesting stories  behind them:

I found the Gloves and Necklace on the same hunt:

And the Helm I sold, and then found again!

You can always approach the Order of the Elders. . .we like collecting uniques.

Plus, it's not like us Priests have anything better to do but store money in the vaults >.>
