Introducing Group XP Routes!&lt;br /&gt;
Herodotus now has challenges aimed at small groups. As a result you find&lt;br /&gt;
his keywords have altered slightly to accomodate additional functions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- TELL HERODOTUS WHO no longer works, TELL HERODOTUS SOLO or GROUP to receive a &lt;br /&gt;
report on the respective quest. &lt;br /&gt;
- Currently ASK HERODOTUS REWARD no longer works, ask him SOLO or GROUP &lt;br /&gt;
respectively, in the era you wish to be rewarded in.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note: you must have your group in the same room as Herodotus to &lt;br /&gt;
start the group quest. You can be solo and ungrouped to claim your &lt;br /&gt;
reward once you have completed the quest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other notes:&lt;br /&gt;
- HELP HERODOTUS has been updated&lt;br /&gt;
- players will receive credit for solo and group kills, even if a charmie lands&lt;br /&gt;
  the killing blow&lt;br /&gt;
- snipe/deadeye shots killing a mob in an adjacent room still give credit for&lt;br /&gt;
  group XP routes (assuming the group is in the same room as the shooter)&lt;br /&gt;
- players no longer have to wait for two minutes after logging in or going&lt;br /&gt;
  IC for their timer flag to update. Herodotus will always report how long&lt;br /&gt;
  you have to wait before you can do a quest again correctly&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As you may appreciate, this addition to Herodotus was extremely complex to pull&lt;br /&gt;
off. In spite of every effort to mitigate against bugs I suspect that you may &lt;br /&gt;
be able to find one or two. If you find anything at all contact me via mudmail&lt;br /&gt;
or discord. If you find anything game breaking (Herodotus rewarding endless XP,&lt;br /&gt;
or a crashing bug for example) please use the pray/bug channels to alert any &lt;br /&gt;
immortals present immediately, and refrain from abusing the bug.&lt;br /&gt;
              &lt;br /&gt;
Thanks,      &lt;br /&gt;
Cap.      &lt;br /&gt;

Other Area Updates&lt;br /&gt;
------------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alaska&lt;br /&gt;
- the ten-legged bear shouldn't get permanently stuck in a location shrouded &lt;br /&gt;
  in mystery&lt;br /&gt;
- it's claws have received a further update, they are now quite unusual but the&lt;br /&gt;
  reason why will not be immediately apparent without careful investigation&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greece&lt;br /&gt;
- the lotus eater will not run out of mana, will brew twice as many vials &lt;br /&gt;
  before complaining about it, and take half as long to feel in the mood to &lt;br /&gt;
  brew again.&lt;br /&gt;

---------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;
There is a small bug when Herodotus assigns your group his quest.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you do not get a list of mobs then ask him group/yes again until&lt;br /&gt;
he does assign you a list of mobs to kill. This does not cost you&lt;br /&gt;
anything is just a minor annoyance until the next update fixes the&lt;br /&gt;
issue.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
