Guilds/HHOFW/mats

From A Tale in the Desert

This page lists the materials needed to run a vigil, and will show the inventories and targets of the various materials.

For now we are basing the list on T3 vigils; as we do T4 vigils we will record the requirements and update this list accordingly.

Credits

This list is the list prepared by Shivani reflecting T3 vigils, with minor edits. This list proved quite accurate and extremely helpful, and we extend warm thanks to Shivani for the work that went into its preparation (and for the donations to the HHoF Worship guild in T3).

Donations

Always Welcome!!!!!!

The elders of the HHoFW guild do try to gather as many mats as possible, but as a quick scan of the list should make clear, the amount of mats required is prodigious. Our success with vigils in the past, and, undoubtedly, our future success, is dependent on the wonderful folk who keep our chests filled.

Always Needed!!!!

Clearly, a comparison of the "On Hand" column to the "Safe Target" below will show which items we have the most pressing immediate for, but HHoFW plans to run vigils regularly and frequently, so any item in the list you can help with will help a vigil succeed at some point.

Always Appreciated!!!!!

T4 Info

Of note: vegetable seed are apparently requested. It appears to be a rare request; I'll add these to the mat list. It is ore instead of metal now being requested (and in the same numeric quantities -- so this is a much easier item now, except silver). (Elders: please leave whatever metal we have in vigil storage. Given Teppy's acknowledgement that the early tale furnaces are overly ore hungry, and that the blast furnace and others to come change this, the switch to ore might be temporary.)

The Worship World guild wiki lists "blacksmithed tools" as being necessary, suggesting a range of qualities be available. However, it does not specify WHICH tools (shovels? hatchets? wedges? blades? knives?). Having a more definitive statement, preferably based on an actual log of a T4 vigil, would be helpful. (As I read the Worship World wiki page, it does not appear that they have actually run a vigil.) Based on the vagueness, I think we are still looking for a confirmation that blacksmithing is required. If you can offer that (and it is not simply a recitation of some of the vague "somebody talked about" or "I think, maybe, possibly I might have seen" statements which are being repeated) please do so.

Another T4 observation: the amount of fish being asked for, especially the rare fish (oxy, abdju and phagrus) seems MUCH higher than T3. I can't recall a T3 request over 55 for the rare fish; I've seen several much over that already in the course of a few hours of vigil observation. Please get those fishing rods going, folks! (But still no serpent fish or any of the super-rare ones being asked for.)

Comments

• The "Avg. Requirement" column is the mean amount required for a 1250 sacrifice vigil (this was the normal number of sacs accomplished in a T3 vigil extending from dinner time Friday until late afternoon Sunday). However, in any given vigil, the actual amount of any given material requested can vary substantially from this mean.

• The "Safe Target" column is the amount which should be on hand to insure, given the variance in amounts requested for a given vigil, that we will not run out of that material. Note that the amount here reflects the ease or difficulty of manufacture or collection of the given item. For example, the "safe" amount for crucibles and nail moulds is not terribly greater that the mean required amount, since we will have Mason's Benches near the vigil site and can easily generate more if demand is high. However, the safe amount for medium stones is well above the mean required amount, to insure there is a supply for crucible and nail mould manufacture, and reflecting the difficulty (you try to organize a dig in the middle of the night!) of gathering more on short notice.

• This is the complete list under T3. Note that, for example, large gems, cactus sap, metal ores, serpent fish, forged items, glass, grilled vegetables, flystones, gravel were never asked for. Whether there will be changes under T4 is unknown. Hopefully any additions will be reasonably common items and some quantity will be available nearby.
