Did you know... ...While the Crystal Bow and Shield have a requirement of 50 agility, the quest to obtain them has an agility requirement of 56. However, since spicy stews have a chance to boost agility six points, the quest can still be done at level 50. (Thanks to Necromagus!)


This one isn't correct. You cannot obtain a crystal shield or bow at 50 agility.

If you have 50 agility( minimum xp is 101333), then the agility xp from regicide will put you to 115083 xp, which is well over level 51(111945 xp)

Weakest Times in ages to be completely honest. I'm ok with promoting user written articles, but making it the only article this week was not a good idea.
The DYK was also false as Bruno pointed.

Really, REALLY disapointed... :unsure:

We know today wasn't really a great release, but it's difficult getting out two or three articles every week and sometimes things just don't get together in time :(

Not only is this a weak article, it is also a repost.
This is like reading one of those billboards on the side of the road that say "Advertise here!".

Is this a case of writers block?

I understand your position, and as a TET member i also know the responsibility of all the paperwork too, but since last week times was also one topic, it was expected to be an extra-long one this week, not the reverse :mellow:
Also, next week times better have a fictional article :smile:

Well the shortage of articles is currently a bit of an issue right now, which is why any guest articles would be greatly appreciated, if you ever want your article to be published in the Times, now is a good time to go for it. :thumbup:

And I'll personally try to see to getting you that fictional, demoli :P

Just say that you don't have any articles and skip it for a week.

Don't sweat not having an article. Being part of TET, I understand completely the stress of being understaffed. No rush at all :).

So obviously you guys are short of things to publish.

Just trying to be helpful here, what if you went back to the original way of only publishing one article a week (or at least one MAIN article, some articles aren't strong enough to stand on their own...like fiction, because no offense, but a lot of people don't read them)

And um....yeah.

I mostly blame this on lack of recent interesting subject material. It's too bad none of that ever comes up because the game's fanbase is insane. :mrgreen:

I have an excellent story in my mind for fictional story, but sadly I have no idea how much time it'll take to wright it, and I'm no native speaker either, so grammar mistakes are almost guaranteed...if I do come with one, how many days before the Tip.It times release it have to be ready?

Instead of writing a semi-well formed rant next time, I'll consider submitting it as an article here.

For the most part, I think you guys do a great job with really insightful articles.
