April 2019 GemStone Official Newsletter

Adventurers! The world of Elanthia is constantly changing, with every day bringing new happenings, opportunities, and challenges. Here are just a few items of importance to be aware of before heading out and exploring:

Earthen Fury Update

In an effort to make critters with Earthen Fury (917) a little more palatable to hunt, we’ve reduced the critical damage of the first cycle of the spell when cast against players.

NEW TREASURE DROPS

There is a new, relatively rare, treasure item that you find – a small totem head. Those of you who tend to find out the hard way that you can’t breathe underwater should find it useful

DIVINE FURY’S LORE UPDATE

Divine Fury’s (317) lore benefit has been updated such that the cleric has a chance for an extra critical cycle. The lore critical will also use plasma and match the primary (strongest) critical of the base effect of the spell and precedes the deity specific critical.

And the Mayor is…

Lylia, winning a second term as Wehnimer’s Landing Mayor. After many candidates and campaigns, as well as over one hundred and forty votes were tallied, the community has spoken! We wish Lylia all the best as she continues her leadership over the frontier town.

The Mobile Smithy Returns

Coming April 15th, the Mobile Smithy will be returning for a week of weighting, padding, and sighting additions to your gear! So grab your favorite weapon and armor, withdraw some silver, and come on down to the dark oak and steel wagon!
