Once again, Ta'Vaalor honors the dead with its biannual Festival of the Fallen. A weekend of shopping, services, and a combat tournament are in store for those who choose to attend (sadly there are no games this year). At 9 pm as the elves tell time on Day of the Huntress, the 15th day of Eoantos, the path to the arena grounds will open and festivities will begin. The tournament will be held on Restday, the 17th of Eoantos at 5 pm as the elves tell time. Participants will need to sign up at 2 pm as the elves tell time on Restday at the bonfire on the inner walkway. Representatives will be there to register those who wish to participate in an orderly manner. All are welcome and those who hold full citizenship in any town may choose to fight as a representative of their home. A full schedule of events is posted below for any who wish to make preparations.

On the other hand it's nice that not all festivals are a generic template with just the names changing. Looking forward to this.

Do the Grobey and Rikelle auction quality unlock raffles require having lower-tier Grobey/Rikelle items already?

Between Permabless, bunches of spikes, and adding Morphing to existing Fusion, it's nearly enough to make me want to go spend some time in Elfie-Lands.

When you say "+1" for the Enchant, do you mean a true "New-style 925 == +1", or do you mean "1x == +5"?
Guessing: the second one.

Enchant restrictions in that column represent the maximum ENDING value to which a weapon can be changed (+35 can end to +40), or the maximum value an item can START at (+45 could end at +45)?

<<When you say "+1" for the Enchant, do you mean a true "New-style 925 == +1", or do you mean "1x == +5"?

It means the enchant of the item will increase by +1, not +5.

The final enchant after the service is performed cannot exceed +40.

I'm glad you understood my mis-type of "(+40 could end at +45)"; derp.

Thanks for clarifying!

<12 pm|Raffle-Creaturebane Weapons(common/uncommon flares OR +10 AS)|No undead bane, no stacking banes, 7x and under, no claid/katana|5|>

Does that mean naginatas are allowed?


<2 pm|Raffle-Creaturebane Runestaffs(common/uncommon flares OR +10 AS)|No stacking existing banes|5|>

Does that mean undead bane is allowed?

I can't speak for Grobey, but I can speak for Rikelle, and yes the auction quality unlock raffles will require having a lower-tier item already.

Grobey has agreed to add the script to any eligible shield. He'll have to look at the shield to determine eligibility, but most shields work just fine.

Late breaking news: The permabless will unfortunately NOT have holy water flares after all. I apologize for any potential confusion but this was just updated.

To clarify some confusion, is full citizenship of somewhere required to take part in the arena fights? Or just to "rep" your home town?

Only if you want to represent a town. Everyone is welcome to participate in the arena fights if they want.

<<are the rules posted somewhere?

Rules are same as last year. One on one combat until one cannot continue. Self spelled only, arena also strips, rapidfire, retribution, arcane barrier, and elemental targeting upon entry.
