News and Updates

The Coffin, The Sarcophagus, Scanners, and Bonds

September 12th, 2010 by Lyle Maeterlinck

Today, we are proud to announce the release of three new and exciting classes of products: Bonds, Scanners, and the Coffin / Sarcophagus. Here is more information on these new products:

The Blood Bond
The Lumen Bond
The Coffin
The Sarcophagus
The Blood Scan
The Lumen Scan

We had originally announced that these products would be released yesterday, but we ran into some unexpected problems that we needed to take some extra time to fix. We thank you for your patience with us.

We also released an update to the Thirst and Rage HUDs yesterday. If you’re using the 3.2 or before, we will not be able to send you an auto-update, because we had to disable the auto-update server for that item due to counterfeiting. If you have the 3.3, you should receive an auto-update when you wear your HUD. If you don’t, please send a notecard to Lyle Maeterlinck, and include your transaction history if possible. I will get you an updated HUD as soon as possible.

The major change to the HUDs is the Charisma feature. Charisma is a measure of influence. There are four products that can send Charisma: The Thirst, The Rage, the Lumen Bond, and the Blood Bond. If you own all four products, you can send up to four Charisma points per day. However, with the Blood Bond and the Lumen Bond, you can only send Charisma points to your bonded partner.

We hope you get a great deal of enjoyment out of these products. Thanks to everyone for your support, suggestions, and encouragement!

    i have a question about the blood / lumen bond. as a hybrid can i have two partners and why is there not a way to cross bond. or have multiple partners?

  2. Mars Bracken Says:

    @ Greyhawk Gant – we are discussing updating the Bond to allow for multiple partners since that’s a request we’ve gotten a few times. One of the primary reasons cross-bonding doesn’t work is that in order to send/receive Lumens or Blood via the Bonds, you need to have those profiles / HUDs set up. We’re discussing options though, and if we make any updates it’ll be here in the blog!
