EG Announcement: On-the-Shelf Flares

Quinton Manse now has a corridor connecting the western and eastern nooks, and within this area are common flare tokens for 1,000 soul shards (fire, cold, lightning, impact, and vacuum), uncommon flare tokens for 3,000 soul shards (disintegrate, disruption, unbalance, grapple, acid, plasma, steam, water, air), and rare flare tokens for 5,000 soul shards (slash, puncture, and crush). You can take these tokens to the fuath to have the flares added to your item.

Going forward, Ebon Gate is where you will find the above mentioned flares as an add-on service. The other flares will remain at Duskruin. To ensure those folks that wish Greater Elemental Flares at Duskruin can get a base flare on their item, we are going to add a surcharge to add that necessary flare for you. This can be further discussed in the Duskruin Channel.

Additionally, at some point tonight, the Trove will open with the following offerings and will run for 7 days.
3 magma
1 blink
1 rot
2 banshee

During service week, I will be running a merchant that will be working on removing the flares that are allowed to be removed from scripted items. This will eventually be something that the korrigan can do but we have to build the appropriate list first. That means two things:
1. The service will be slow as each script has to be researched and recorded
2. It will have the same soul shard cost that the korrigan would have charged for the property removal slip.

Lastly, to prevent an accidental sale, the gjenganger in Gavelsdown Hall will no longer be buying back flare tokens.

UPDATE at 5:30pm:

…the cost of all tokens has been reduced to 50 soul shards. If you are one of the 9 people that purchased flare tokens in Prime (Plat and Shattered had no sales yet) please assist to be refunded.
