Town Crier tells you, "I have heard vague reports of more developments at that strange new town Mar'uun."
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, "Travelers tell tales of a fierce new wisp appearing at the Crystalline Crag."

Ulgrim Rumors

Free Rumors:

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."
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."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "That being said, I'm always game to push the boundaries. Bring me a stout, kid."
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..."
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..."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Oh, I think I'm having another one of my visions... Virindi and Tumeroks and Lugians, oh my!"

Stout Rumors:

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."
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."
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..."
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."
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."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Friend, can you spare a stout?"
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."
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."
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."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm sorry, what was I saying? Hurm."

Known Issues

  • Doing markers 6 to 10 first (without having done markers 1 to 5) on the Crystalline Markers quest will give you the reward for the first five and make it impossible to complete the other five.
  • The "Failed to enter chat room" 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

  • Armor Upgrade Kit - As time goes on [sic] more armor may be adapted to work with these kits.
    • (missing a comma)
  • Perhaps due to the dungeon name change, the Inspector of Adepts does not recognize older Adepts:
Aldrion of the Celestial Hand tells you, "This should not be possible. Perhaps you have not joined any society yet."
  • Jyotsana tells you, "You've disocvered [sic] enough crystals to earn a reward. Good work." - "discovered" is misspelled.
  • Uber Tower Creator says, "I only accept Ring Tower Tokens"
  • Jean says, "Luc and I come from the same human pod. We often tell the same stories. We have been togeather [sic] as long as we have been flesh." - "together" is misspelled.
