TODAY IS SATURDAY AGAIN! TIME FOR SECOND PART OF OGRE KNOWLEDGE!
THE SUBJECT IS: HOW TO CATCH A CHESTLOOTER OF GLADIATORS GUILD.

CHESTLOOTER IS SOMEONE WHO TAKES STUFF FROM GLADIATOR'S CHEST AND
SELLS IT TO GET MONEY - YES, AFTER 15 YEARS (FROM THE FIRST TIME
I HEARD ABOUT IT) TILL NOW - THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE THAT STUPID!

GLADIATORS FROM TIME TRY TO CATCH IT BUT NEVER DID REALLY.
THEY ALWAYS YTU TO SCARE HIM BY POSTING ANGRY NOTES LIKE:
WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE, WE CATCH YOU SOON, YOU GIVE UP, YOU SURROUNDED!

BUT THAT'S BULLPOO, IT DOESN'T HELP. CHESTLOOTER IS STILL THERE!

NOW YOU WILL GET TWO DIFFERENT TIPS FOR THAT TASK!

FIRST ONE (TRIED ALREADY):
AKS GORBO FOR DELETION AND START A NEW CHAR. PICK A NAME CHESTLOOTER
JOIN GLADS AND LET YOURSELF BE CAUGHT! EASY AS PIE!

SECONE ONE IS MORE TRICKY:
LEAVE THE GUILD YOU ARE IN AND JOIN GLADIATORS. DON'T BE FRIGHTENED.
IT'S TRUE WHAT YOU HEARD: CHARGE IS LAME AND BERSERK IS USELESS
AS MOST DAMAGE IS DONE BY SPECIALS ANYWAY. BERSERK WILL LET YOU
TANK A BIT BETTER AND SURVIVE POISONS, BUT LET'S BE HONEST - WHO
WOULD LIKE TO POSION GLADIATOR? GLADIATORS ARE SO UNDERPOWERED IN
PLAYERFIGHTS THAT THEY SIMPLY CANNOT TAKE EFFECTIVE PART IN ANY
CONFLICTS. SO YOU WILL BE AT LEAST SAFE.
ANYWAY, ONCE YOU ARE A GLADIATOR, POST A FEW ANGRY NOTES ABOUT
CHEST BEING LOOTED. WHINE THAT YOU SPENT 20 HOURS GATHERING STUFF
AND SOMEONE SOLD IT IN ONE INSTANT. COMPLAIN THAT THERE IS NO
BROTHERHOOD ANYMORE, THAT THE WORLD IN GENERAL AND GLADS IN PARTICULAR
ARE GOING TO THE DOGS. THREAT AUTHORITIES THAT YOU WILL LEAVE
THE GUILD WITH MANY OTHERS IF NOTHING WILL BE DONE IMMEDIATELY.

NOW THE TIME IS RIPE FOR ACTION! BEGIN TO STEAL FROM CHEST. TAKE
2-3 ITEMS EACH TIME AND SELL IT. DON'T STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT IT,
THAT WOULD KEEP YOU OUT OF SUSPICIONS. GROW BOLD, STEAL MORE AND
MORE EACH DAY. GET ALL SAVING STUFF DURING ARMAGEDDON AND SELL
IT JUST AFTER TO VERY LAST PIECE.
WHEN YOU WILL BE FED UP, SIMPLY CONFESS AND LET THEM CAUGHT
THE CHESTLOOTER - THEY WAITED FOR THAT MOMENT FOR 15 YEARS!

NEXT WEEK IT'S GONNA BE: HOW TO LAY YOUR HANDS ON RUNED FALCHION.

This one is good.

I'm looking forward to the next one. Since I almost always have a runed falchion I wonder if it will involve killing me. *tingle*
