Drunkenness and /resign - Guild Wars Forums

According to wiki, the drunk effect is removed travelling using the map or talking to a NPC. Question: is drunkenness removed also using the /resign command? (Too lazy to test it myself :P)

short answer yes

Drunkenness is not always removed after mapping, not even after character change. I've recently done my drunkard title (10,000 minutes from Halloween until two weeks ago) the 'real' way.

Mapping and drunkard is weird and not always the same. Sometimes you lose all your drunkenness, sometimes you lose a minute, sometimes you lose nothing.

A few times I have switched characters when only 1 minute of a lvl5 drink was up. After changing back to the character a short while later, the counter started ticking again without drinking anything, completing the lvl5 alcohol!

But on-topic, I'm actually unsure about the /resign effect on drunkenness. However, I'm not convinced up front that it will remove all your drunkenness, because nothing else really does.

Thank you very much for your replies

I am creating a build to farm luxon assassins and i need dwarven stability for anti-kd, but since the farm is more or less 1 minute long, i was warried about wasting alcohol. I will try it^^

Yeah, you're going to be wasting it. I'm going to assume you care about the Drunkard title since you really wouldn't care about the effects after /resign otherwise. It only takes one level 1 alcohol to give you the anti-KD, but that won't give you any drunkard points.

It'll take three level 1 alcohols before you get 1 minute of Drunkard on your title. Even if you use three, complete your farm, /resign, you'll get 1 minute maximum, meaning you wasted two alcohols.

If you use a level 5 alcohol, then if you wait out 3 minutes on the map, you won't be wasting any, but then it's also not making your farm as productive as it could be since you'll be standing around and/or waiting after /resigning before trying again. However, like Dzjudz was talking about, level 5 alcohols can act pretty weird about their completion so maybe it'll all work out fine.

Resigning or simply rezoning usually won't remove your drunkeness, usually. But if you move to another instance or outpost that happens to be running on a different server (different physical computer) that has it's system clock set on a slightly different time you may find that you got some minutes added to your title and your drunkeness down or even completely removed. Yes, GW servers aren't all well synched and differences of as big as 2-4 minutes are the norm, although in most cases the differences are around 1 minute only.
