Talk:Gordon Bower

Thanks, once again...

Hey, thanks for the update once again. I'll try to finish revising this article tonight. This is one that I entered waaaay back when Croatoa was still in beta on the test server. I know at least the first mission is different, probably more. --TonyV 18:57, 7 Feb 2006 (CST)

So far, the data seems accurate, though I can't remember the first couple. Definately ok from mission 3 to 5, and I'll check as I go. --StarGeek 19:13, 7 Feb 2006 (CST)

Gossip

• Get the citizens out of the line of fire - Character took on the Fir Bolg and the Tuatha de Dannan. Both at once!
• Unknown (presumed: hunt Tuatha) - Character is making a real splash in Salamanca!
• Unknown - I hear Character may help Gordon Bower save Salamanca!

Introduction

I'd like you to make a little trip up north, Character. There's a friend of mine named Gordon Bower who could really use your help. Gordon's the mayor of a little resort village named Salamanca. Lately the atmosphere up there has been... well, weird. Disturbing. Deadly, even. There's far too much for me to explain, and you might not believe me if I did. You'll just have to see it for yourself.

Go see Gordon Bower

The village's name is Salamanca, but people have been calling the area Croatoa lately. You'll see why once you get there.

Unnecessary Solicitation

I told Gordon to expect you.

Briefing

Thank you for coming. As you can see, Salamanca isn't a nice place to live. Not anymore. We've got a few amateur mystics trying to keep our town safe, but we need more than their spells, Varasin. We need you. I know Salamanca's problems aren't the only ones you face. Come at any time, and I will be grateful for your help.

Arc Award Merits #

I noticed it was changed. Is the new # (27) what it was on live? I have no idea if any of the private servers have bumped up merit rewards, so I'm just checking that the original amount did need changing to be in line with what it was on live. Felderburg (talk) 21:10, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

Based on the patch notes I found, the new reward of 27 was not what it was on live. Reverting shortly... — talk / contribs 21:33, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

(From [the Development wiki]) The "core" story arcs, which follow a formula based on datamined time, had their Merit Rewards for arc completion increased 67%. This puts the merits/minute on par with running Task Forces.

FYI the link to the wiki is not available for anyone not logged in - it gives a "can't be found" error. Felderburg (talk) 20:27, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Makes sense. I'll be sure to continue including the actual quote, then, for anything else I link at that site. — talk / contribs 21:02, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
