Edit: the one time this happened in Mag I had the benefit of the stole being pretty org specific, and I scried until I found out it was someone who was fine to be standing in the city. But if someone rolled up in a simulacrum skin with a mask, I don't know what I'd do.
personally I've not found any way past this artifact in any way, shape or form, aside of guessing the person who it is and randomly scrying people like you did. You can't target them by race name or anything else as far as I am ware in any case.
Have you tried the Pet Collection Birds power? Says it shows persons in the area and bypasses masking effects.

If you do LOOK A; LOOK B; LOOK C, etc. you'll eventually get the first letter of their name. If that's not enough to narrow it down, you can then do LOOK KA; LOOK KB; LOOK KC; etc. to get the next letter until you figure out who it is.
(more generally, the marauder's mask is an excellent example of the sort of artifact that shouldn't really exist, imo)
But again, it can make you (nearly) impossible to target, despite them being in your room. That does not seem like the intended effect of the artifact.
I'm fine with the masking effect generally. I just think this feature should have a simple counterplay. Being able to target "human" or "masked" or something else would be fine.
And yeah, I though about coding up something that would kick all the demigods I have in my nameDB or something, since that would likely cover anyone who has a mask. Cycling through first/second letters would work too.

I disagree. They can't take an aggressive action without revealing themselves.
My problem with it is that it's essentially a just a coding hurdle. It only hides you from people who A] don't care, or B] haven't coded something to do perform the necessary check. It's my same problem Blizzard in Aeromancy; it either blocks your map or gets ignored entirely based on whether or not you happen to have a client-side automapper. Which is a dumb balance point.
Manse artifacts cannot be refunded. They can be traded however (regular artifacts cannot be traded but can get a refund).
So your only real option is to sell the manse with the garden in it to someone else... but there may be other things in that manse that you want to keep, in which case you are stuck with the garden. You could go stick it in an out of the way / hidden room (closed and locked door for example) to get "rid" of it.

Ahh, sadness. Thanks though! I'll just design a garden room, 'twill be grand.
Is there a way to keep wafers for a long time? They tend to decay so fast that I forget that I don't have any when I resume playing.
purity dust wavers? you can inrift them! things in your rift don't decay and all curatives are riftable either in your liquid or normal rift. You need a small amount of planar skill to access those rifts though.
try:
INR everything OR INR wafer
also, SSC will automatically eat wafers from your rift.
Why do Charites return designs only to have you revert them back to how you originally wrote them? I just had them ask me to change a comma to a semicolon, and then had it sent back asking for that to be changed back to a comma. Why? Can this be fixed? It happens a bit.
If a monk uses one arm action in a form to raze a shield, but the other two actions are stopped by stancing, do they progress to the next Kata stance?
Yes, it does. The stance calculation and hemo calculation show before the raze action. If you miss with your first action and hit with the second, the stance progression and hemo happen after the miss, before the hit. I tested to confirm:

Also, if a form has no Surge High or Killer component, does it default to the Surge Low version when going into Surge High or Killer? And I assume if that's the case, then it must conversely default to the Surge High version if you're going into Surge Low or Killer and there are no versions of the form created for those stances?
Defaults to low but you can change that with KA DEFAULTHIGH <ON/OFF>
Took us ages to remember that command. Its all in ab forms though.
Thanks, Veyils - I appreciate the response - but I guess what I'm asking is more what if I use a form going into Surge High stance that only has actions defined for Base and Surge Low? Does it use the Base version or the Surge Low version?
Ahh I get you, yes if you make one form and fill in surgelow stuff and leave surgehigh blank if you do:
kata perform me testform high then it'll still put you into the surgehigh form assuming that all actions are doable in that form and I honestly cant think of a single monk action that requires you being in high or low so it all should work.

Thanks. And I guess the same thing should work for Killer no matter whether it's defined for High or Low?
How do monks reliably get to elemental/cosmic planes? I've always played either mage or guardian so it never even occurred to me that other classes can't just use their nexus.
If you can't get a ride up, and if your org doesn't have a construct in the nexus world that takes you to cosmic/elemental, then you might have to resort to using regular gates. There's a gate in Tolborolla usually that gets you to Faethorn, and then you can use archways to get to elemental. From there, you can use CosmicGate at your nexus to get to cosmic (or at any nexus if you have that skill in planar as well).
Beyond that, if you're willing to shell out, the Rune of Planar Mastery lets you use any nexus to travel to any plane connected to that nexus. It's only 100crs.

For the Beauty Seal, is the midnight Feb 25 deadline the midnight it turns Feb 25 (ie, about 5 hours) or midnight at the end of Feb 25 (29 hours)?
*stares at cartel willing submission to be approved*
The deadline is at midnight on the 25th in GMT, which means a little over four hours from the time of this posting. Technically, midnight at the end of the 25th would be the 26th. We are, as always, working to ensure that last minute designs are process as swiftly as possible in this eleventh hour.

You can just spam kata perform me testform high and it'll move you from base/twisthigh/center/surgehigh/killer
