PoA Monarchy Resources

The Mansion

The mansion is open to everyone - PoA or not - and is loaded with magical items (as well as trinkets from our adventures). There are also 5 chests in the mansion's dungeon. Almost all of you have permission to use the chests - if you don't, please ask! The chests are loaded with all sorts of useful (and otherwise) items. Unless they are labeled as mine, you may take them. The southwest chest is loaded with Majors and imbued weapons, so look in it from time to time. There are also magical beers and potions of various types in the other chests.

Salvaging

I collect work 10 salvage separately from other qualities of salvage and I'm sure many of you do too. Gyes took all 4 of the Ciandra's Fortune Augmentations, which increases salvage output by 100%, and specialized Salvaging. He now receives 3x the workmanship of salvage per item. If you do collect w10 salvage, I would be happy to help you out.
