Realm Bonuses Declining

Post by qoonpooka »

I live in Hedgehugs and have been enjoying the bonuses, but I've noticed my study grid getting more and more barren.

Started watching, and yep, Hedgehugs is losing INT bonus among others. What's going on to cause this? Is there anything I can do without being a sworn citizen of the realm?

They could have been changing up there bonuses, they added a knarr boost, and increased the fishing boost. But thats all I can see.

Realms can decide where to dedicate their authority drain/statue alotment. I think they can redistribute it without tearing down old constructions. So I guess you can help by asking them nicely for the int bonus back? Although they apparently value those other things more.

If it's a policy decision then that's fine. I just assumed they were under attack or something.

It's very easy to defend realm bonus statues, you can see them in the Community Fair actually.

The challenges for realm bonuses are XP generation by inhabitants required to power them (anytime you're in the realm and earn XP they get authority from it), and actually making the statues since they use difficult to get resources. Statues are somewhat interchangeable though, so it's not like they construct a specific statue for each bonus.

Anyway, more you know :)
