Is it safe to ask now maybe, is there possibly and ETA on the other two states of being now that redeemed is a thing and live?

Thanks for all you do!

I don't feel that I need to explain my art to you, Warren.

That's very disappointing. I would think that with the groundwork laid with the redemption quest, with the nature of how it was coded, you could plug the other two into that quest. It's a shame it's taken so long to completely flesh out a guild that's gotta be over 10 years old in a 20+ year game.

I appreciate the additional information and I think I understand the level of work involved. Redemption was a great quest to go through and I enjoyed it immensely. It's just disheartening to wait for so long for something so iconic to the guild. I hope transcendence isn't a huge joke, I hope the two remaining states have significant changes and benefits. Risen was a huge letdown personally and I think they still have a lot of potential but they would have been a million times more useful if they were the combat pet that you could call one to you at a moments notice vs spend time creating a zombie.

>>Lichdom seems pretty self explanatory - what is Transcendence going to look like?

Forgive the delay, its been awhile.

The lore pitch is that the Transcendi are Philosophers who complete the Great Work and have become semi-divine. These differ conceptually from Redeemed insofar as the Redeemed are penitents who wear holy chains, while the Transcendi are Promethean figures who have carved out a bleeding chunk of divinity and claimed it as their own. Among other qualities, they have gained the living immortality that Kigot promised them and will endure endlessly. For better or worse.

Mechanically I have a few different thoughts but won't get into the deeps until we're much closer. Though one thing I've wanted to do for awhile is let Transcendi give favors out.

Transcendi? Makes me think of a vape cartridge.. lol

But I love this info. Thanks for it! and giving out favors would be a fun turn around... could start our own 'legit' faiths. I promise the tithe for mine will be very low :)

How's them other states doin? Are we any closer to the center of the tootsie pop?
