This new shop to Naidem is a collection of past items of worship. The “Of the Faith” Line, also colloquially known as “Of the Cloth” has both armor offerings and cloak-worn offerings, as well as all of the unlock certificates. Please be advised, MEDITATE is still a special raffle only unlock.
Also found in this shop is the “Alternate Arkati,” which has been brought to more modern standards.
What does this mean?
Previously, a Tier 1 Alternate Arkati had a single verb (Rub).
Now it has: Blink, Brush, Clutch, and Touch (Previously Rub)
Blink, Brush, and Clutch are new.
Previously, a Tier 2 Alternate Arkati had three verbs (Pull, Push, and Tap).
Now it has: Gaze, Pull, Push, Tickle (Previously Tap)
There is now a Tier 3, offering Kiss, Knock, Hum, and Mumble.
All previously unlocked (and locked) Alternate Arkati items get these new verbs appropriate for their levels.
