its a vendor in which you do not require the key to visit in the first place, you just need to know about it really in the first place, it may have been removed due to the recent changes but i havent checked in a while. your probably right and he's gone now with the changes with the illusion

the key is quite acquirable, I sadly cannot say because spoilers but you can already buy this key somewhere.

oh, alright. had no clue! Sorry talir

should mention current points are at 7280 about as i just put more work into it, i'll post here if after a reset or crash if it goes back again.

Not sure if this is because of recent server instability and crashing or not, but the past couple of days i've been putting resources into my lair altar and each time i am past 7200 points and everytime the server resets/crashes i come back and its back around 6800. I've probably lost about 1000 points, maybe a bit more to this so far, is this a bug?

I'll also mention that i finally have a lot more time and effort to dedicate to this with work slowing down so get involved folks if you want! We're quite fun to play with! If you can handle some inner-faction conflict of course... We are all evil after all hmhm

Sort of busy with work for a few more days so sorry i havent been as active efu! i'll try and get my shiiii-stuff together so i can get back! Aztallin must just be roaming the darks for now in my absence

Cheers, NecroDude

^^ An earlier bug report, so assuming this bug is known?

Assuming this bug is still persistent, last time i did this quest indeed nothing triggered the quest finish.

Would definitely welcome you along for the ride :) hopefully a lot of fun times to be, dangerous, evil, good times.

"Ascending beyond mortal bounds" sums that up there ^_^ though i phrased it that way so it was not specific to purely just lichdom, there are many very cool undead types out there to strive to become, and as much as i hate to say it, lichdom sounds like it would be one of the least likely considering how powerful it is

Let me start off by saying as a Bone Warden player I vastly enjoy the perk as it is quite useful as it is.. However, I was thinking about it, and had an idea I thought might be a cool addition to bone warden, and offer some more flavor to his animation skills.

As they start they automatically get a free corpse every reset, I've had it give me various bodies to animate, from the expected skeleton to ogre, to half orc, but I always thought the perk should be restricted to -just- skeletons as it makes sense for the "Bone" warden. However, I felt a cool way to add flavor might be to not only restrict it to skeletons but to upgrade it, perhaps say at level 8 to give unique skeletons to animate instead of the normal skeleton archer and soldier.

Idea's?

instead of a skeletal soldier, perhaps a skeletal knight, instead of a skeletal archer perhaps a skeletal marksman, and restrict it to give only these two corpses instead flowing off onto random ogre bodies, ect. which make little sense for a bone warden. This could represent their growing mastery over skeletal beings rather than just the royal guards summoning, which though awesome! and I'm not suggesting in any way that it be removed! Just this as an addition to the perk.

Yes I know i'm essentially asking for the perk to be empowered in a way, but I thought it might be a cool idea, so the bone warden can create some longer lasting minions than the royal guards that could aesthetically look cooler and be stronger to represent the bone wardens growing skill at 8th level, rather than just animating the same old same old of every other necromancer. Don't get me wrong the royal guards are great for flavor and quite strong to use, but they don't last very long to contribute a lot to the RP of a bone warden beyond being that surprise card up the sleeve as a surprise attack- Great mechanically, but not so very much for rollplay.. Plus it makes little sense that all your other animated skeletons last as long as you need them but the royal guards your master creations last like 2 turns, and in the time it takes you to rollplay them they fall apart shortly after making your character look a bit like a fool.

And I'm aware it would take creating two new bodies for animating, which might be asking a little bit- but I thought it was worth suggesting.

Additionally as an idea, if the above one was not very desirable, maybe extend the royal guard duration? Maybe even make them persist consistently? And as a trade off take away the bonus they grant to nearby undead and add a summoning point cost to them equivalent of the other skeletal animations. Would yes up their power, but also make their RP worth a lot more, and make the rp of them make a lot more sense, along with greatly representing the bone wardens skill with skeletal beings. Another trade off could be that each use of the attendance at the court of bones only animates 1 skeleton at a time, so you cant just suddenly animate 2 persistent undead right off the bat

Thoughts anyone? Forgive me if my suggestions seem to be asking a bit much, again, I just thought this might be a couple of potential suggestions.

I like it nammykun :), i'll put that down, pretty sure that would be  goal the cabal would strive towards

[Necromancers alone throughout the past have been dreaded enemies of all who believe in the just causes of light and good, and alone, many necromancers despite their power eventually fall prey to the hordes of good, and their power is snuffed out...

A forewarning word, this is indeed a very evil group, and hopefully an active group in performing acts which will gain many enemies and be on the wrong side of law, there will be pvp, there will be perma-death risk, there will be going on high risk quests and adventures to get stronger, and performing rituals which could potentially go very wrong and end us all at any point, this -will not- be easy, but it will be highly rewarding in getting to experience a high variety of adventures and boons which we could all possibly earn through IG activities, you may even be able to serve forces you did not know about before, or gain a PrC through your efforts, but this is what the cabal is about, we want to all work together to help you achieve your PrC, we all want to see you gain infamy, we want to see you become powerful through our efforts IG, we all want to have a good time- so I invite you to join us, and to experience EfU Necromancy, infernalism, and abyssal side of the server.

New fresh PC's Welcome, Existing PC's welcome, all are welcome as long as they fit into the concept of the group.

IRC Channel: #TheCabal not a lot of us yet so it may be empty at times, but I try to be in it whenever I can, feel free to pm me IG (Character: Acular Aztallin) or on IRC in the channel or #efu, i try to be around as often as I can.


--Post subject to massive changes as I put together stuff to improve it, and as the cabal evolves IG--


 

so many plans we had... agh... i will miss my necroabyssal buddy

Will we ever see such a interesting prestige class opportunity in a chapter so fitting for such?! We've seen the introduction of Ritualists, Blood Mages, why not Alienists?
