Keep going! You're almost there!

Telendrieth

Finished the contenders figurine, and aside from a few little bugs, I adore this thing.

Bright blue coruscations of kai energy flash from a battle figurine resembling Kasa's fingers, rippling over a winged figurine of Pazuzu, the Demon Prince's form and causing his bones to shatter with a sickening crack.
Lifting a winged figurine of Pazuzu, the Demon Prince's prone form above his head, a battle figurine resembling @Kasa brings it down across his knee, the spine snapping and head rolling back, lifeless.

Glorious. 

Aegoth

You chose... Kasa? Geez man, what a waste

Cailin

A battle figurine resembling Kasa's fingers? That sounds... Interesting.

Connell

Woke up after a long weekend, checked stockroom and a spreadsheet - looks like I paid off my entire 30 year shop lease, the tuns I bought, and any non self sufficient comms I’ve purchased for smithing in only a year.

Now onwards towards 29 years of profit!! What a good day

Carlyle

Note to self: Don't climb out of holes after falling in. Just stay there.

I got a shock when I fell in that hole, but then I wondered why people were dying to it. Then I realised: their autowalkers were killing them. #Skynet

Xias

I recently paid to become unenemied to Hashan, excited to finally explore the city. A few minutes in and BAM! Down the hole. 10/10 would die again.

Sylphie

A dove comes flying into the room, deposits a letter into your hands, warbles cheerfully, and flies

away.

You see that the letter contains a slice of birthday cake.

You read what is written on an elegant white letter:

happy birthday sylphie

Advocate Sylphie Averial (female Mhun).

She is 39 years old, having been born on the 11th of Lupar, 729 years after the fall of the

Seleucarian Empire.

Stuck in quote box but little things like this makes me love the Achaean playerbase. I was feeling really down but this made my night. For whatever reason. Thanks whoever.
P.S. I hate unsigned letters but this was nice.

Harmonia

forests...darkness...boom...wraiths..
oh, and @Majin gifted me with my own shrunken head.

[Deleted User]

Big thanks to @Dunn and @Austere for all the help so far. And @Shirszae helping my blind ass, after I spent a good hour or two raging in Kuthalebak. Also @Minifie for killing shit for me, so that I could do the quests in peace.


... Now all that's left is Dreadpilar. Sooon.

Storil

Had a very productive month overall.  I successfully passed my interview for HR 4 and became an Academician. I was so proud! Also had a fun hunt with @Xik, @Turaxl, and @Ilira.

Vasinateira, the Queen Regent claps with delight, ignoring the confused looks from the guests.
Vasinateira, the Queen Regent exclaims, "Regent I thus name you! Go, wield your newfound powers well, FRIEND!"
Vasinateira claps her hands for a second time, and a servant arrives to escort you back to the palace main hall.

The grand stairway of the Alcazar (indoors).
You see exits leading north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest, and up.

You feel a tangible increase in your worldly experience as the quest "A Royal Ball" is completed.
A chorus of confused cheers erupts throughout the Alcazar as Pyori is raised to the rank of Regent.

Yayyyy.

Thanks @Jadys, @Morthif, @Austere, @Seragorn, @Zulah for the Dreadpilar kill, to help finish it off.

Thanks @Iakimen for interrupting us, and moving the Dreadpilar around to make it harder.

Prythe

Not sure where this  might belong, but I figured I'd share my "results."

I have been tracking my hits / crits / total / percentage for each level since I pushed for Dragon starting at level 82.

A level and a half ago I got cloth armour and the doohickeys for it.

Emanating a faint, golden glow, the symbol of a shield surrounded by a chain marks the surface of

this runic armour.

It weighs about 6 pounds.

It bears the distinctive mark of Prythe.

This armour has 2 embrasures.

The following paragons have been inserted:

1: a crucious paragon (paragon514515)     critical level gambling

2: an auspicious icosagon paragon (paragon514360)     critical level increase chance

This armour has 58 months of runic empowerment left.

It will reset to you.

I could tell that my Hunting was more efficient, but even though I don't dive deeply into the numbers as some of you do, I do like numbers and being able to quantify things.

So I took the results from my last full non-armour level and compared them to my first full armour level. I took the percentage of each type of Crit, and assigned values of 2 4 8 16 32 64 based on their relative values (if I'm wrong here, please let me know). 

It's a relatively simplistic methodology, but I think it works for this purpose. 

My results made my eyes boggle - even though my total percentage of crits is down ~8 the efficiency of my with armour crits is better on a 1116:540 ratio.

Mind boggling as well!

If I messed up somewhere, please be gentle.

Your soul cries out in ecstasy as it reaches new heights of power. You have advanced to level 60.

Baby steps 

Tysandr

To be technical, you need to know the health remaining when you kill a mob with a crit, as a large crit may in fact only do 10 damage. (Unless you have that critical spillover artifact.)

Hmmm. I do have that Arte, got it sometime into this recent level, so you're right, I'm not entirely comparing apples to apples.

Kase

(Market): Skye says, "Grab a ham roll for those quick bites on the go. So much meat, they hang like curtains! Ad 21!" Don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a market ad before

Gate to the Garden of the Gods (indoors).
You say in a quiet, bassy voice, "...It's fine that we're just sitting here, right?"
Rurin, the Crafter nods his head emphatically.
You wipe the back of your hand across your brow in relief.
Ruri n, the Crafter says, "If you stand long enough, you may just see a god or demigod goby."
"Oooooooooh!" Vexilte says, eyes wide with wonder.
You say to Vexilte in a quiet, bassy voice, "That's something I'd like to add to my memoirs, for sure."
Vexilte says in a deep, melodic voice, "I think getting here is an accomplishment of itself, though."
You say in a quiet, bassy voice, "...I wonder if asking one for an interview would... yeah, that's probably a bad idea."
The corners of Vexilte's mouth turn up as she grins mischievously.
You say to Rurin, the Crafter in a quiet, bassy voice, "...Would asking one of them if they had time for an interview warrant a smiting?"
Vexilte smirks.
Your surroundings sunder as reality submits to the arrival of Evil's Lord.
You blink.
