Rhyot

Is enchantment still going to be a mage thing or is that going to become a mercantile skill?? Idr if this was asked already. 

Razmael

Enchantment will become a Mercantile skill soon (within a few days) after release.

Rasani

I know I don't go here, but I wanna really thank whoever planned this event. I had a blast and the way you involved each Enorian class was spectacular. A+ guys.

Tiur

The event stuff was a team effort, but largely around Raz's skeleton. If you enjoyed any mechanics, it was Raz being up late coding every crazy idea he could. If it was boring or broke, it was me trying the same.

E:

Also note that the event took 8+ staff members animating things, sometimes all at once O_o

Oonagh

Intense. I showed people stuff that was going on while trying to balance RP and active events. I can never complain about leading a group to a lesser now.

That was amazing! I already esteemed you guys but like WOW, I’m still talking about it
