    Guardian's and Character Redesign

    *GUARDIANS.
    (God damn apostrophe.)

    I completely understand that when we first log on after Launch we get the opportunity to redesign our character, including name and deity.

    However in the last quest of 1.23 we obtained a ring when we /prayed at our deity's stone. (E.g., I chose Thaliak as my deity, and when I prayed at that stone I obtained Thaliak's Ring).

    My question is, if we choose to change our deity in the redesign, will I still have Thaliak's Ring, or will it be changed to my new guardian?

    I know they're pretty useless at higher levels, but I'd hate to have a ring that was no longer my chosen deity.

    (And I know someone will ask, but the reason I want to change is just small. My char name will still be Aqua, so I would prefer a deity with water resistance... indulge me!)

    That's a good question. I planned on staying with Llymlaen regardless (because fishing is awesome) but I realize some people plan on changing their character drastically and their current guardian may not fit their newly changed character.

    Especially RPers and the like. I could never get into RPing but if I'm curious about this then I'd imagine some hard-core RPs might be too.

    I think I'll be stuck with Thaliak nonetheless. I'd hate if they actually released guardian-related armour and I end up with a ring that's different to everything else I own ><

    I might be wrong, but isnt Thaliak a Water Guardian anyway?! I havent really looked into it since Creating my character way back at launch so am probably wrong, but I picked Thaliak, and I coulda swore I went for a Water based guardian....

    yes it's water

    Thaliak, ruler of rivers and wisdom and god of knowledge, is the guardian deity of Sharlayan. He commands the element of Water

    Really? I thought it increased ice resistance...
    Now I'm confuzzled.
    Regardless, it's still a question I'd like to know the answer to =) If Thaliak is Water+ then that's just a bonus!

    Edit: Nope, you're right! Halone & Menphina are ice. Thanks for clearing that up, looks like I'll be staying Thaliak anyways! Arigatou Gozaimasu.

    D'you think there'll be a difference in their given resistances based on that?
    (Astral is always the way to go anyway ;D)

    Ooh, as character generation was one of the things that the NDA has been lifted on; so far, as of Beta Phase 2, there isn't a difference in resistances for deities of the same element whether they're Astral or Umbral.
