Ribbon FAQ's

• I’m a new artisan – where are my starting ribbons?

Brand new characters with the Artisan skill get three starting ribbons. Existing characters who have just learned the Artisan skill do not: they get to craft their first items during the next downtime.

• I’m a new artisan – why are my ribbon expiry dates different?

Brand new artisans get one ribbon that lasts for three seasons (events), one that lasts for two seasons, and one that lasts for one season.

Artisan item creation

Some items have the ability to perform the equivalent of the "Timeless Hammer Rhythm" magic ritual on a character with the Artisan skill and who wants to create an item overnight during the event.

There isn't a mechanism to do this directly on the GOD front end, and so this can instead be worked around by having the "Dummy Ref Account (0.1)" perform the Timeless Hammer Rhythm ritual (which is an Autumn ritual) on the target character, and disregarding the normal ritual casting cost (but following all other instructions on the ribbon.)

When recording the casting, include detailed notes in the 'Notes' section: specify that you're executing the special ability of a magic item, and provide the number and name of the ribbon whose power you're invoking.

The artisan character will need to already know how to create the specific item they want to create.

You should follow all other instructions on the special item.
