I somewhat wish that I had stuck around in Serenwilde and Hartstone long enough to get back tri-trans and play around with Ecology + Druidry + Stag.
Seriously, that shit looks like it would be strong af. Poisonpoisonpoisonpoisonpoison.
With that said, I feel weirdly at home moving Tyngh back to Magnagora. It's like going away on vacation for a week, and when you come back, you're super excited to see your dog and he's super excited to see you and OOODJABOODJABOOIMISSEDYOUYESIDIIIIID.
Then the mother loving administrators need to let the general public know. Just because I'm not one of the chosen few, to borrow a term from Arcanis, doesn't mean that game impacting things like this should be kept in the dark.
The "administrators" is kind of a broad term here, just FYI. I've seen a lot of complaints about the lag on the forums but haven't yet had the luck to log in at the same time as @Ieptix and ask him if he knows what's up. Since someone else has posted that he said he has something in the works to fix it, that's good, but don't feel like you're being kept out of the loop. Very few people have the power to fix things like like lag or other coding issues, and you shouldn't feel put out as me (and almost all other admin, if I had to guess) haven't heard much about it. The "chosen few" is probably best translated as "people who has asked while Ieptix was logged in".
RE: the library. The admin have to manually review all "newly published" books after they pass the two year critique period for player librarians before they are officially approved and count toward points in the library system. Unfortunately there are very few admin who review library submissions and it can take us a little longer than we (or you!) may want. We appreciate your patience in waiting with us but I would advise not filing an issue about it. We know the library submissions new reviewed continuously and if we haven't done so there is a reason (usually because we are busy volunteers who are trying to bring you other content). Filing an issue only takes up the issue admin time to respond letting you know that we will get to it eventually and will not speed up the review time. In an (read: my) ideal world, the library would automatically publish any books with no player critiques so you don't have to wait, but there are so many other things that are more important (like reducing lag!) that our coders need to work on before that change can be made (if it ever will be made) so we have to work within the system we have. My recommendation is to submit books well in advance and not rely on your most recent submissions to win you prestige. Always have a backup plan.

It's strong right now because of the way dust balance works with herbbane is goofy and there are lots of dust balance poisons. Stag doesn't really do much in that situation, you just stick with poisons and you're better off. The random shrugging chance can still bone you pretty bad, but that's life!
It's worth noting that you can't use beast venom and trample at the same time, can't time familiar berserk to land consistently with demesne - and last I checked it literally did nothing, bad bug-, broken arms (from eyelash viper) do nothing in sap, and that gore is a particularly way to land poisons. One thing people forget is that while impaled on an antler, you can cure up afflictions but the Stag user can't do anything until they withdraw the impale. A clever curer will prioritize curing up afflictions such as broken legs and paralysis before finishing an impale writhe. The BT demesne does more afflictions on demesne ticks, too!
Ecology is definitely the strongest tertiary choice with respect to locking up sap, because you can spam wafer affs to make it hard to cure paralysis consistently and have access to double morphite/double calcise combos. Several poison affs are also ticking offbalance afflictions, which helps out. You're always welcome to join Seren and pick up the class!
I didn't miss a single day of Wheel spins while I wasn't at home, but as soon as I'm back I forget one. Flipping heck. Almost made it the whole month without missing a spin! Curses!

It was the one that contained 7 wondercrystals too!

You know, I was going to just post an expletive filled rant about how the lag that occurs whenever there is a large group fight is ridiculous, given what I imagine is a large number of Elite subscriptions that get paid each month. What, exactly, is the cash going towards other than heels and tiaras for @Estarra? How about some infrastructure upgrading, if the servers aren't capable of handling these fights with the new code? How about acknowledging that yeah, there's a problem somewhere, yeah, we're working on making it better. Something. Because I'm seriously at the point of losing my cool, getting myself forums banned, then saying to heck with it and retiring and dumping my disposable income elsewhere. It is beyond infuriating that my commands are taking two seconds to go through when I'm otherwise unhindered.
Fix. It.
It almost certainly has more to do with the way Lusternia is coded then hardware itself. Sure hardware can compensate for the bloat, but the bloat really drags the game down. There's simply too many items in the game and unless the team is going to virtualize and/or streamline loop checks the problem is just going to remain. I had hopes with things like the curio box they might move things a bit into faster processing, but no, of course it had to be more about selling artifacts.
Liquid rift was a great step forward and is the sort of thing that can help hugely with processing. Not having to outrift (and therefore not having to carry lose herbs in your inventory would help). Things like knots likely just move us back towards lagland.
"Oh yeah, you're a naughty mayor, aren't you? Misfile that Form MA631-D. Comptroller Shevat's got a nice gemstone disc for you, but yer gonna have to beg for it."
I just wrote 4000 words in hopes of meeting Bardic deadlines. Here's hoping they're good ones.
The purpose of writing is to inflate weak ideas, obscure pure reasoning, and inhibit clarity. With a little practice, writing can be an intimidating and impenetrable fog!
This is the second time Rancoura has been given flowers by someone she frequently meets on the battlefield. Not sure if ;;) or :-?
I got flowers too, Dy loves roses so she was a bit in awe and just said thank you. Yay flowers, more flowers!
Avurekhos says, "Dylara's a PvP menace in my eyes, totes rekting face."
The eye of Dylara materialises in your hands and flings itself around your neck, tightening incomprehensibly until it is irremovable. Perfectly clean, this eyeball has been wrenched from the socket of Dylara. It has been animated by some unusual force, constantly looking around itself as if in shock or fear. It is bathed in a light covering of white flames that roll endlessly over its surface. A single chain of empyreal metal pierces either side of the eye, allowing it to be worn around the neck.
Sometimes I entertain the idea of being really attentive to tattoo clients' uh.. physical topography during a session, but I don't think I can pull off that level of creepy. Anybody looking for high-immersion tattooing, or do you just want to get in and out and on with your day? :-S

So, hey, what's the trade policy between Hallifax and Magnagora these days? Do people do trade bans anymore?

The Voice of Jagrerox tells you, "Your skills are currently influenced by Divine feelings, so I am
unable to say exactly how close you are to the next level in Necroscream."
I hate this. It makes me dread truefavors. I want to learn my lessons with precision, not be stuck sitting around hoping my favors expire soon so I can get on with it already.

This is why you should track lessons in an spreadsheet or something then. Then you have something that is never wrong (at least until you teach someone then it gets off by a few single digit lessons if you do it enough) and doesn't matter if you have a favour or not.

Tonight amidst the mountaintops
And endless starless night
Singing how the wind was lost
Before an earthly flight
