Call for Heroes - Erfmortium Retirement Contest
As you might now, Erfmortium is retiring from the game. What you may not know is that he had a ridiculous collection of old donation items... and would like them used to reward people who bring new folks to the game. So, from now until we run out (which is going to be a while!), every month or so I'...

I'll be digging into one of these in early November and will be happy to let this sway my opinion one way or the other.

So, yeah, vote away and we'll see what we end up with

It's something that's outside normal expectations for how your understudy learns things. So it might take a while to figure out.
That said, someone already found one. So it's apparently not too bad
