New spells and blessings...

Postby Ben » Fri Jun 15, 2007 5:45 pm

There are 4 new blessings and 5 new spells available. They are:

1 new orange blessing, available from the normal place.
1 new orange spell, available from the normal place.
4 new blue spells, available from the normal place. (Yep, mixed with the old ones... sorry enchanters. hehe)
3 new blue blessings, available from a new place.

To give you an idea what you want to hunt first, the two oranges are help n00b magic things. Do watch for those as they have an "odd" level requirement to cast... so don't be putting up bug reports about how it doesn't appear in your spell list. One blue blessing and one blue spell are weird/fun/useless. The two remaining blue blessings are a lot like the red and yellow blessings, but stronger, and the three remaining blue spells are portals to new places.

I'm pretty sure that even the highest level characters have something to kill to get blue and orange crystals. If this is not the case, please post in the bugs forum.

FYI from now until the middle of the day Sunday, the elucidators and other things that give out the new spells will be TWICE AS LIKELY as usual to give out one of the new spells as opposed to the old spells, if that elucidator or other thing had old spells.

For instance, if there is normally a 1/6 chance of getting a particular spell from the orange elucidator, there is, until Sunday, now a 2/6 chance of getting the NEW spell from that elucidator, while thee is still a 1/6 chance to get one of the old spells. Well, actually 2/7 and 1/7. Yea.

Mathematically, this still means that you are MORE LIKELY to get an old spell, since there are 5 old spells and 1 new spell, because
Chance of new spell: 2/7
Chance of old spell 1: 1/7
Chance of old spell 2: 1/7
Chance of old spell 3: 1/7
Chance of old spell 4: 1/7
Chance of old spell 5: 1/7
TOTAL CHANCE OF GETTING A NEW SPELL: 2/7
TOTAL CHANCE OF GETTING AN OLD SPELL: 5/7
but your chances to get that new spell are higher than they would be otherwise.

If this makes no sense to you, that's okay... just know that when turning in blue or orange crystals, until Sunday you have a better than normal chance to get one of the new spells. =)

Some misunderstandings, apparently... no new place to hunt with crystals is available. No old place to hunt has had crystals added to it. You still get crystals in the same exact places you always got them before. You still don't get crystals in the same exact places you didn't get them in before.

The "new place" refers to the place where clerics have to go to get blue blessings.
