Therian Saga

You know the problem... Your first castle was a massive hit. You've run out of space and have to juggle players/alts/toons on a daily/weekly basis.

well don't WORRY, here at Masters of Jotun we got the plans for you right here....

all you need is

8000 Lithosnow blocks
7000 Xuran blocks
1200 kryamane ingots
100 Gurdismo beams
40 Palpable Monoliths
500 Salancedar planks
750 Wingu fabrics
34 Demonic bones
and 3 volcanite block

and you can make this:



giving a 21 accomodation ( amongst other things )

so why not make Xuran walls, you shout?

well it took 3 months to cut 7000 xuran blocks and we discovered that the castle acc score rounds UP even at lower than *.5 results. Our castle was 20.333 and Xuran walls would make 20.8** so no difference. The only way to get higher seemed to be volcanite walls/towers/forts or kmane walls. Even with volcanite accesable now... that's 1000's of blocks aka a lifetime of farming... and the kmane well 400x300 = 120,000 ingots seemed a 'little' out of reach even for Masters of Jotun.

Oh and a MASSIVE thankyou to Falkarma and the Virtys team... who very quickly came to our aid... when I accidently crafted a kryamane wall instead of a portcullis... right at the last moment. gulp

Here's the comparrisons of castle builds. from old to new with the xuran wall test

and last but not the least... the insanely epic and completley pointless Simple Demonic Wingu Noble Furniture we used.



You know how we roll.

Massive congrats guys...

I'm guessing the bigger accommodation means you can put more toons to work on your next project...

Cant wait to see what that will be

Thanks Rich!!!

erm... we've kind of run out of things to make. So will be a while to see what's next.

FYI: There was a glimer of hope in the guild as to whether if we built 2 castles on top of each other the spaces would stack... so instead of 46 spaces total we would get and extra 21 resulting in 61 spaces lol. I can confirm that castles don't 'stack' as if you have a castle already it just fails the build of the second. So you have to demolish the first and make the second. Which thankfully doesn't kick your current members who temporarily don't have a 'legal' spot.

Also worth noting is that in demolishing your first castle... you loose your imperial ticket. We made an extra one, but I know Return to Sender asked support to help and they redemmed there's... so that will just take a little time.

No Volca/Krya walls? I'm disappointed! Haha, seriously though, well done to all involved!

1 Volca needed??

Well one more massive achievement by Jotun (Therian) Masters!
We struggle to finish our first Gala mine, and you have at the same time, raised also the Xuran Quarry, which lets you make this new beast!

I am guessing you are already preparing for the Tarasquan Outpost?

Keep up the great work, to motivate the rest of use to follow!

Technically, Woody is incorrect, 5 Volca were needed. for the Volca statue, not 1.

edit: Outpost? We want a Mansion in Tarq.

tsk tsk Stormi... does that mean we have to count all the 1000s of oceanite used in getting alts to discover xuran recipe? hehe

Neh, We will probably use all that in Tarq. lol.

not 1, not 5, but 3 maybe ?

Ouhh,snap. I was thinking statue, so 3. lol/

it's not 1 or 3 or 5 it's the 2% chance of leveling on volka tasks (I chose volka embellishments as the longest and most useful one) to get the skill lvl to make it

Ok Ok I updated the list to THREE volca...

can we all get back to lamenting how awesome we are now? hehe

Ok ok

So, I ran some numbers. My math could be horribly wrong. Volcanite castle should be 28 accommodation. So, only 7 more than what you guys got. It's also, I think, around 15000 blocks. Even if 52 separate players all ran new alts through to get the duke's reward, that's still 289 times for each of them. Not happening.

I did use this as a template to decide how I'd build mine. A little crazy, but not this crazy. Lithosnow; walls/towers/forts, Dom port, Gurd N. frames, Palp mega foundations. Gives 19 acc. according to Aknoth's calculator. Which is actually way more than I would need.

:edit: Actually considering all Palp mega now... but keep changing my mind
