:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Town Crier tells you, "My cousin dug out his old Noble Robe, said he was going out to get it specially tailored.  I wonder what he meant by that?"</font><br>

=== [[Ulgrim]] Rumors ===
 
''Free Rumors'':
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I tell you kid, I can smell it on the air.  Can't you?  The smell of applesauce.  It smells like terror."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "No, I don't need to go to one of those godforsaken outposts and get a robe enhancing kit.  I'm already wearing the highest grade of Enstoutened Robe possible."</font><br>
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That being said, I'm always game to push the boundaries.  Bring me a stout, kid."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Of course I noticed that my war spells hit harder!  I can also knock over a spittoon from two feet further away now!  Must be something in the stout..."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, goody goody, Rand's updated his tag list to send people after Lugians, because there wasn't already enough trouble brewing with those big brutes..."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, I think I'm having another one of my visions... Virindi and Tumeroks and Lugians, oh my!"</font><br>
 
''Stout Rumors:''
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Did you ever wonder where the eggs we eat come from? And what about the supposed chicken our cooks make? I don't eat either of them... just in case."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Did you know my face is on the Soul Staff?"</font><br>
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Yup, I'm immortalized! It's the third face down. Some people may claim it's the guy who created the staff, but he's nobody and I'm famous."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Don't crowd too close to me kid.  The last person who got too close to me ended up spilling a little stout on my robe, and, well, they had to fish him out of the bushes behind Claude's tent.  After he landed."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm sorry, you want me to go to which tropical hellhole island and harvest what now?  No, I think I'll stay here and enjoy my stout.  I hate the tropics.  Mosquitoes sucking the blood out me remind me uncomfortably of myself with a mug of stout."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Is it just me, or do you hear a quiet chuckling coming from Claude's tent?  Oh, I hate those Virindi.  With the smug looks on their faces..."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Let me give you a bit of advice my friend. Never look up a magician's robe, it ruins the surprise. Wait, or was it a magician's sleeve?"</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Mark my word, kid.  Pack your stuff and go.  When the Virindi roll back into town, they will spare no man, woman, or purple-cheeked Tusker."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "My pappy always used to say that courage, compassion and loyalty are the keys to getting your heart's desire.  But, I figured out an easier way.  Sometimes you just have to ask.  So here goes."</font><br>
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Friend, can you spare a stout?"</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh boy, winter stuck around a little longer this year, huh?  Well, at least Berkholt keeps the stout nice and tepid."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "So you heard it too, eh?  Virindi moved in on Mar'uun?  That's not a bad omen or anything."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Sometimes you people forget... I'm not trapped on this island with you... You're trapped on this island with me."</font><br>
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm sorry, what was I saying?  Hurm."</font><br>
 
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You doubt my chess abilities? Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Yuri, Bobby, Trumper, Blue?"</font><br>
:<font color=darkgoldenrod>Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Morons."</font><br>

'''Town Crier'''


=== [[Known Issues]] ===
''Free Rumors''
* Doing markers 6 to 10 first (without having done markers 1 to 5) on the [[Marker Crystals]] quest will give you the reward for the first five and make it impossible to complete the other five.
* The <font color=darkgreen>"Failed to enter chat room"</font> bug ''still'' persists (even after the server relocation on March 30th).
* The pathwarden armor chests received the addition of a robe, which has caused the upper body armor piece to not appear. A fix is already in place for the next patch.


==== [[Typos]] ====
{{Dialog|
* [[Armor Upgrade Kit]] - As time goes on [sic] more armor may be adapted to work with these kits.  
|Town Crier tells you, "My cousin the sorcerer says his firebolts are hitting harder these days..."
** (missing a comma)

* <font color=darkgoldenrod>Jyotsana tells you, "You've disocvered [sic] enough crystals to earn a rewardGood work."</font> - "discovered" is misspelled.
|Town Crier tells you, "I have heard vague reports of more developments at that strange new town Mar'uun."
* Uber Tower Creator says, "I only accept Ring Tower Tokens"
 
|Town Crier tells you, "Is snow still on the ground?  By Asheron's bristly beard, it's been a long winter."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "It seems the Renegade Tumeroks have become agitated lately... Rumor is that they have found ways to fortify their weapons."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "My cousin dug out his old Noble Robe, said he was going out to get it specially tailored.  I wonder what he meant by that?"
 
|Town Crier tells you, "New things are afoot at the Crystalline Crag!"
 
|Town Crier tells you, "Rand the Game Hunter has updated his bounty list!"
 
|Town Crier tells you, "The Dereth Explorers' society has marked ten more locations around the island!  Seek them out, if you've got the legs for it!"
 
''Pyreal Rumors''
 
|Town Crier tells you, "All right, for a bit of pyreal I can tell you that there are some especially strange new citizens living in that town Mar'uun."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "I have heard that the specialty merchants at the Colosseum, Olthoi infestation, and the Mhoire Graveyard have kits to upgrade Noble Robes with."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "If you are a member of a secret society, you may wish to head to your vault and see if there are officers with new orders for you."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "Is it true?  Have the renegade Virindi renewed their old alliances?  There is a scholar named Aruq ibn Balthar in Zaikhal who spreads such tales."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "It's true, our field testing proves it... War spells have got a little more kick to them lately.  I wonder what's in the air?"
 
|Town Crier tells you, "Scouts report that the new substance Renegade Tumeroks have been using on their weapons can be used by Isparians too..."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "Seek out Rand the Hunter in Holtburg to see what creatures he's tagged.  Word is, load up for Ruschk."
 
|Town Crier tells you, "The Explorers' Society has marked a new set of locations around Dereth.  Seek out Sean the Speedy in Holtburg if you are interested.  Here's a hint for one, seek out the Sand King..."
