After looking for it for weeks I can safely say there is no tea at all in Eldevin.

For a UK based game this seems like a rather huge oversight.

How on earth can a game survive without a proper cup of tea? :blink:

 

Therefore I suggest the Cows introduce tea to the game.

The easy (but boring) way would make the shopkeepers sell tea alongside the water and beer they are selling.

A much more interesting way would be a quest that makes you make your own cup of tea.

 

First you get some materials to make a cup or glass. Peter the glass maker in EC can help us with that.

Next we grow tea at a farm. Tea can be low level because everyone should have access to it.

Then we get some water (from a well) and boil it. This can be done at the cooking area or the alchemist. And now we add the tea to make a proper cup of tea. Depending on the tea we may add milk (cooking ingredient) or lemon juice (alchemy ingredient) to it.

Last but surely not least, we share the proper cup of tea with our friends. ;)

 

And since a cup of tea a day isn't too much to ask this quest can be a daily one. B)

 

The reward of making, drinking and sharing this cup of tea may be a few artisan awards and a nice group buff. Or something equally nice that the Cows think of. ;)

No, it has to be iced and with plenty of sugar- Southern Style! No lemon, and certainly no cream, that is for coffee.

Eldevanc. the name of the Eldevin Kingdom is Eldevanc. :D

There may be different recipes of course.

One where you add ice cubes and sugar for example.

 

Though we can't really use the ice tea recipe to make a play on the guilt of a UK company about forgetting to add tea to the game. The proper cup of tea is much more suited for that purpose! ;)

Lol, I like it but make sure it's black tea.  Early grey is nice or maybe English Breakfast tea, I like my caffeine :lol:.  I"m a coffee person but I like tea too, iced or hot is a fun choice :P


Slow but steady wins the race or something like that.

I'm just taking it slow, not sure about the steady.

No ice tea rubbish, a true British tea like where I live, that's the sort you want. Ask l3fty what tea he drinks and I bet he replys with Yorkshire Tea!

True, but they aren't suited to drink fine tea from.  ;)  Low grade ale at best... :unsure:

Considering after 3 months time l3fty still remembers this suggestion and likes it I though I'd give it a little bump.

After all, it isn't too much to ask to move this idea above Guilds on the priority list, right? :D

It's tea, people! B)

Please make it take a few minute to do all this, so that I can enjoy it with my daily cup of tea in the morning ^_^
