Introduction

The new Test of the Ritual Tattoo was released on New Year's Day 2010.

Wahim as usual had a challenge for us put-upon-Egyptians. Here is how it appeared in the Story tab.

My recent travels have brought me to Sinai, where I have studied inscriptions on the Monument of the Human Body. Our ancestors theorized that it may be possible to make permanent markings on our bodies, though never developed the tools or knowledge to do so. But their challenge was interesting, and the Scientists at the Great Universities of the Human body have conducted experiments proving that given a correct set of pigments, this can be done. Your challenge is to assemble pigments for 7 such markings.

Disciples of the Human Body, adorn yourselves with The Test of the Ritual Tattoo!

Explanation of passing the test

The following appeared in the chat tab for the guild The Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy.

InambaGuum: here's the test:
1) go to any UBody and get a list of requirements. if you don't like those requirements for whatever reason, you can go to a different UBody and get a different list, but you can only do this once per month, per UBody. this list will give you 7 combinations of herb, resin, gem, and location. you need to do 4 of these 7.
2) find an herb on your list. set the mortar down beside it and add the herb to the mortar. from this point on, you can add the resin whenever.
3) go to a location that matches the requirement. add the gem.
4) turn in at UBody.
InambaGuum: every time you turn in 4 completed mortars, you get a tattoo, and, apparently, a focus point.
Squiranha: I would just change 4) turn in at the same Ubody you got the list from

Initial reports suggested that on successful completion of each stage the player received a +1 focus point.
