Announcing the broker, the middle man who will broker deals between Wisdoms and Illuminator in order to supply you with vials, syrups, red vials and fireworks!
Essentially, this means you will not have to find a Wisdom on to acquire potions. Illuminators can now finally trade their items. In exchange, the existing fireworks loads have been removed from the game - if you want fireworks, you will have to use the broker.
Wisdoms and Illuminators can drop off their wares at the broker and have him sell them.
As a customer, you can buy these items using shimmering chains of gold, obsidian pendants, gold rings, red robes and earthen brown mantles. Since both clans will be paid out in questpoints, there are no plans to allow gold to buy these items. If you want to buy these items for gold, you'll have to find people ingame willing to sell.
You can find the broker, he's an affable man, in four different locations scattered across the map.
Say "help" and he will give you instructions on which item will sell for what. Give him the trinket in question and ask for the item you want. If no Wisdom or Illuminator has dropped off their wares, he will return the trinket to you. If he does have the item in stock, you will receive your purchase.
5 thin vials of yellow fluid: a shimmering chain of gold OR a shimmering pendant of obisidian
4 cups of thick syrup: a red robe OR an earthern brown mantle
4 vials filled with a dark red liquid: a red robe OR an earthern brown mantle
1 bunch of fireworks: a gold ring
Have fun!
