Who knows ? maybe someone will stumble upon a piece of lost lore

Alas... the Devs (via support team) have clearly stated: ALL the lore (artworks) they had is posted at the website So there is hardly anything left out...

Unless they decide to implement something new... but build on the same principles as the old...

support team >_>

then tell me where these ones are on the website, eh
(those are from contest prizes)

I have finished translating the symbols on the melee weapons (symbols on all zorai melee weapons are the same). Here is the result: http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m312 ... eapons.jpg

As far as I understand it this is a kind of reminder: "Even for a skilled warrior objects of beauty (and the way they affect everything) are most important. A skilled warrior should work very slowly but steadily and then he will surely reach all the goals."

Basicly this line states: even though you are a skilled warrior remember that first and foremost you are a zorai !



Well it was one of the hardest so far... I will update the vocabulary in the initial post ASAP.

Wow, that's great! I love that things like this were embedded in the game, and I love it even more that another player discovered them.

Great work, and thank you for bringing this to us!

And here is the translation of the pictograms on the zorai rifle. Both the new (yellow) and the old (red) version http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m312 ... /rifle.jpg

Frankly I like the old version more... The new one sounds kinda way too simple...
But I guess they meant to stress the importance of bullets. And the concentration skill is not important for a ranged fighter anymore... Maybe it was meant to be though (initially)...

Very interesting insight

I wonder if any lore can be discovered somewhere in Atys through the decyphering of pictograms such as these... *ponders*

Strange how the rifle pictorgams give almost an explanation of how to acheive the best results (ie a more "game mechanics shown in the game" approach) whereas the sword shows a more philosophical approach (ie lore shown in the game)

The Zorai just needed some instructions for something as complicated as a rifle. They kept forgetting the bullets and wondered why it didn't work, so the makers started putting a 'for best effect, use bullets!' warning on the rifles .
