==== [[Ulgrim]] Rumors ====
{{Dialog|
''Free Rumors''
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "How do you like my new hair cut? Pretty stylish huh?"
|Ulgrim squints at you.
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "Well I don't care what you think, you're way too ugly to talk about my looks."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I went up to visit Aun Javhalrea the other day and he just stood there and ignored me. I couldn't believe he was so rude, no more stout for him."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I'm seeing a lot fewer corpses around these days. It is a shame really, I used to make my drinking money by robbing the corpses of their pyreals. Now I have to rely on people walking by to randomly decide to give me stout. Strangely enough that seems to happen a lot."
 
''Stout Rumors''
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It seems the Shadow Generals are collecting ley line data around Tou-Tou. I don't know about you but everytime I've heard of something messing with the ley lines, terrible things have followed."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I went up to Asheron's Island and visited Deewain. While I was there I said hey to my old pal Asheron too. I challenged him to a duel but as usual he turned it down because he knows I can beat him with 4 stouts in me and one hand tied behind my back."
 
|Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I must have been pretty drunk the last time I went down into the Frozen Cave up north. When I took the path I thought I had before I ran into a stone wall. Oh well, I will just have to get some other ice for my drinks instead of chipping pieces of off Ordas, although that is the best ice around."

|Ansar El-Kerdany tells you, "Head to 87.1S 9.6E and retrieve one of these fragments. Bring it to an Agent of the Arcanum then return to me and I shall reward you."
 
'''[[Esmond Fielding]] - [[Ikzisik Tika Ri Zikma]]'''

'''[[Niccolo De Luca]] - [[Shadow Statues]]'''

|Deewain tells you, "Asheron did say I would be safe here."
|Deewain tells you, "I haven't felt such kindness in my life before."
|Deewain stares off over the water.
|Deewain tells you, "Maybe being alone isn't what I really want after all."

* Crowns and other open headwear will not display the new textured hairs when worn.
|Deewain tells you, "I still do not fully trust them. Hopefully in time I will... I don't want to fight anymore."
* Covenant and Horned Helms will not display on undead characters who still have appearances chosen before the undead art update went in.
|Deewain tells you, "Asheron did say I would be safe here."
* After one of the new society shield covers are applied, it is recommended that players relog to see the correct scaling adjustments of their shields.
|Deewain tells you, "I haven't felt such kindness in my life before."
* Old society shield covers will be replaced with a new specific shaped Society shield cover.
|Deewain stares off over the water.
* Contract status not updating progress regularly for a few kill task quests in each society. Specifically the quests to kill [[Moguth Moarsman]], [[Shoguth Moarsman]], [[Magshuth Moarsman]] and [[Vaeshok]] are not updating.
|Deewain tells you, "Maybe being alone isn't what I really want after all."
* Some contracts for quests that have an item pickup as their starting event still reset to “In Progress” instead of “Available”.
