I´ve been buying the Monastery credits off people to get Hunter´s Ale from the Monastery collectors too

I'm drunk when playing the game in real life does that count??
this way is more fun, and its realy much harder to stay 1000 min drunk and a wake.

<-- use vodka+lemon+beer, get drun, then each 10 min a bottle of beer, then try to get in a PUG and do thehardest mission, remember to set skills and skill points before doing this, and try to act normal, this is the hardest part-= now take some dwarven ale and if you can find it in your inventory then use them, if you cannot find them no worry just take another beer , now take over the lead and start to call for target.
pointless you say?
I say NO WAY if you are having fun with getting drunk ingame and waste time then this way its more fun........for you.

Have fun and get drunk

LOL!! "If you can find it in your inventory..." LAWL!! I've been there SO many times.

"Hey Rip. Dude, where'd you go? Dude, how'd you get on the other side of the map all of a sudden? Are you lost? Can you find us? No? Okay, sit down and relax. No! We'll find YOU! No, the mission didn't get harder, you're just drunk again. Yes Rip, the Ostrich's are pretty this time of year, but we call them Moas in soberland. I said we'll find YOU! Stay!"

When all is said and done. This is the farming title...
It might be gold farming to buy Dwarven Ale, it might be farming hunter's ale in Pre or it could be farming it in Cantha.

I.M.H.O Everyone say hello to the farming title, I'll be sure to post this sucker when I get it, 107 mins and counting...

Show me the MONEY!!!

And considering you read my post correctly, that working is for 1000minutes. I said 2million for 10000minutes. And if you 200400 and x10 i believe thats what you get

LOL Don't get me wrong: I'd consider this title as an imposture if I hadn't a beer next to my computer... ask my keyboard how many time I've spilled it on it...

Concerning the 10,000 mins title, I was pretty surprised since the title track bar is almost full with my 800 mins. I guess you start over with a new bar when you reach the drunkard title.

EDIT - Bar - erm...

Sort of. The max amount of beers you can have in you is technically 5, but you're only drunk on 3 of them. Think of it as the real thing. It takes 3 beers to actually get drunk. The first two don't count towards your time, but as soon as you pound that third, you're officially drunk for one minute (until you're back down to 2 again). For example, if you drink the max of 5 beers at once, and then do nothing, you're official time will go up by 3 minutes.

I usually bring up my title screen, keep a close eye on the time meter, and then drink 5 beers at once. As soon as my time goes up by a minute, I know it's time to pound another. I like to keep myself at lvl 3 drunkenness (maintaining 5 beers at once) due to the cool visuals and retarded comments coming from my intoxicated toon. I continue to do this until boredom sets in, or I'm too drunk in real life to remember to look at my screen (or care).

Oh, and in regards to getting drunk in HA. You're intoxication always stops when you port into another area or start a mission. So any chance of 'after effects' at the start of the mission are gone. In regards to actually BEING drunk in real life while playing in pugs...well... some of us play better under the influence anyways (and like you would even notice).

Yep, I'm not surprised. Again, this is a lot like the real thing. Holiday spirits have always been a bit more 'potent' that the normal year round alcoholic beverages. And I just threw away like 50 of those spiked ones to clear up space before Factions came out too...

Nope.

Dwarven Ale = Hunters Ale = Eggnog

1 Spiked Eggnog = effect of 3 of any of the three above

Absinthe and/or witchs Brew = same effect as pumpkin head or snowman (which = NOTHING for the drunkard title)

I may have to wait until the next Wintersday Event and get the Spiked Eggnog from the collectors. Hope they run it again.
