New Boots!
The Town Criers jumped the gun last month, but they're here now! New Boots! And they are extra cool. Thanks to Allen Grey, Beer Gromnie and Ashgad for helping me recover my bodies as we hunted for new boots and beans! We all had a pair before the night was over! Here's a picture of us posing in our new footwear.

Here are the stats of mine. Beer Gromnies got a nice Gromnie pair, and Ashgad and Allen Grey got Steel Toed Boots with miscellaneous enchantments. I love them!

Updated Shadow Armor!
The smiths are hard at it, working off their vitae, trying to appease the disappointed. They've somehow managed to make Atlan Stones usable with the Armor for increased Elemental Protections! Example: Use a Major stone on Amuli and protections are Average for Bludgeon, Slash, Pierce; Unparalleled for the stone type; no protection for the opposite, and Above Average for the other 2. Base AL increases from 150 to 170! With the stone, the armor becomes no-drop and cannot be enchanted (remove stone with Atlan Tool to make it droppable again). Danier poses below in stoned Amuli!

Quest Details: Shadow Armor
New description on Major Atlan Stones: Use this stone on an Empyrean weapon or on a piece of Shadow Armor.
