Book 3: Reimagined: Trust

Hey there, heroes!

This month's Reimagined release has arrived! Last time, you spent a couple days in Falconreach while Ash did his best to secure funding and support for the Vind. You met up with Cinquefoil and some other members of The Rose while clearing the road, only to learn that The Rose's crimes were not widely known across Greenguard... But no sooner have you returned from your diplomatic trip to Falconreach, than Kara has a new mission for you.



Melissa and Niki have yet to return from their own excursion, and it's up to you and Mritha to find them before they get into trouble... or trouble finds them!

Head over to Sulen'Eska and talk to Mritha to go to Kara's past quests to play this week's Reimagined release: Trust!

A few notes about the Reimagined project:

This week, we're continuing the new story grafted into mid-Book 3. At this point, the existing Espina Rosa quest line still serves to carry players into Swordhaven. As a result, the Espina Rosa story will still be accessible from Kara and Mritha - for now. Once the Reimagined replacements have caught up to entering Swordhaven, Espina Rosa will be moved to The Shears (and adjustments eventually made to have it intertwined better!) However, until that point, Espina Rosa will still be accessible from Kara and Mritha.

We have also removed "The War Room" and "Choose" set of quests, as these did not serve any substantial purpose.

Thank you for your patience, and we hope this hasn't been too confusing as we work to bring Book 3's story up to modern standards!

We're almost there, and we hope you're as excited as we are to see the final, contiguous story!

Next up, we have a few armor customization updates!



The Artix customization for Paladin is now available by default, and the Vaal Chaosweaver and Zeclem DeathKnight customizations have been updated!

You can find these, as usual, in the Armor Customization room!

And finally, bug fixes and adjustments!

Game Log Updates:

The Show/Hide Log button has been moved next to the Options button on the interface. (Keybind ; still works).

The Game Log is now translucent!

You can now click on the Game Log itself to swap between Battle and System Log. (Keybind ' still works).

The log now suppresses duplicate notification pop ups when out of battle.

The Battle log now tries to check for the status name used in the char info panel before using the internal status name.

The Battle log now shows the turn number of each log entry.

Other updates and fixes:

Removed the "Current Quest" indicator from Kara's quests in Sulen'Eska.

Accessing The Shears now requires completion of the Main Story quest, "Trust".

The Shears quest line has been moved on the Book 3 Timeline.

The Blood and Roses final act has been moved on the Book 3 Timeline.

Paladin's front foot layering has been adjusted.

Weakness seeking skills and attacks should now default to Curse element.

Yalla and Challenger Tog's reactive defenses will no longer protect against Curse.

Mritha and Niki guests have had some bug fixes/updates across the board.

anything else I may have forgotten

There's a lot I like about this one. For starters, it was nice to see some familiar landmarks like Oaklore to the north, the boarder checkpoint to the west and of course the Oculus Tower while we were walking about with Mritha. It's not a huge deal but I thought those details were a nice touch.

Leon's new introduction was fitting too. Remembering back to when the Shears questline was first released, I don't recall being told what the tower was actually doing there and why it should have been felled, aside from it being a blow to the Rose's establishment and a symbol of defiance against them (which I was still very keen on, mind you) and of course the whole thing the Crest and her unique powers. So it was to nice to see how it would be of concern to the Vind and the wider story.

And Akanthus... Continuing to pull the wool over Jaania's eyes; downplaying the siege he instigated against the Dravir and making her believe the Vind's actions to be so aggressive rather than defensive. I really appreciate how much you've done for his character in these quests, he might just be one of my favourite DF villains now. I know Jaania's gotten a lot of flack from the community in the past, but between Akanthus deceiving her at nearly every turn and that Mirror of hers confirming her biases... Can we really blame her for being the way she is? :P

And some tasty setup and foreshadowing for future events regarding Alteon and the Hero's dragon as well...

spoiler:

Hard agree. I wasn't completely caught up on the plot, I'd just gotten to the land of fables, and I decided to replay it. The reimagined quests totally recontextualise what I thought of Jaania, compared to Arkanthus
