How the drunk system works:

Basically 1 drink = 1 minute drunk, and you need at least 3 drinks in you to be considered drunk. You can only have 5 drinks in you maximum at a time. There are 3 levels of drunk. Each level of drunk takes 1 minute to wear off and give credit for 1 minute of drunk.

So, if you chug 3 ales, you get 1 minute drunk. If you chug 5 ales, you get 3 minutes drunk. After 3 minutes are up, you can chug 3 more and get 3 more minutes drunk because the very first 2 drinks (that don't count as being drunk) never wore off.

How the drunk timer works:
As soon as you drink an ale, if you are drunk, the timer for a minute of drunkeness begins.

Here's a scenario:
- You chug 3 ales and are drunk (lvl 1).
- 30 second mark, you decide to drink another ale.
- This means you reach drunk (lvl 2), and the timer for drunkenness resets.
- 1 minute mark, no drunk credit. Remember timer was reset
- 1.5 minute mark, 1 minute drunk credit
- You will go down to drunk (lvl 1).
- 2.5 minute mark, you will get credit for being drunk 2 minutes.
- You will not be drunk, but still have 2 drinks in you (I guess buzzed state).

So because of that 30 seconds you waited to drink the fourth ale, it took 2.5 minutes of real time to get credit for 2 minutes of drunk. This means you should drink as soon as credit shows up on Title track; don't wait or it'll take longer to get credit.

What works and doesn't:
Works - Dwarven Ale, Hunter's Ale, Egg Nog, Spiked Egg Nog (thanks for confirming spiked, Amok)
Doesn't - Witches Brew, Absinthe

Want proof I know what I'm talking about?



I didn't show it in the pic, but there is a second level. It's Incorrigible Ale-Hound - 10,000 minutes. Yes, that's right...Ten Thousand Minutes!

That's 6 days, 22 hours, and 40 minutes. That's over 40 stacks of 250 ales and 2 Million Gold.

Now get to drinkin!

Thanks for the tips.

By the way, Spiked Egg Nog works, that's all I've been using so far.

LMAO! Oh man, I am so going to need to start investing in Ale now. Haven't been drunk a day in my life RL, only fitting that I got sloshed to astronomical proportions IG.

2 Million? :/ I figured 200-400K should be enough, I've got the feeling you did something wrong..

Sorry, I was talking about the next level. Incorrigible Ale-Hound would require 2 million gold and nearly 7 days drunk. And yeah, Drunkard "only" took about 200k and about 17 hours.

I think there should be other ale a stronger version that each gives 3 min drunk time and cost a bit more.

This reminds me of the Lu Shan's Fishing Rod quest from FFXI. In the end you get a certificate stating that you've wasted your time and life on a worthless accomplishment.

However farming for fame is also pretty worthless...

One or the other has got to work, because I have drank nothing else after the game started tracking your time drunk.

I popped both on my Ritualist when people were talking about it in Guild Chat and voila, a Drunkness title was made. (But obviously the bar is nowhere near the first rank at only 3 minutes)

I remember that you could pull some combo with one eggnog and one spiked eggnog that made you uber drunk for a while, but I don't remember if it was for 1 or 3 minutes. Anyone wishes to test it?

I haven't stop watched it or anything (I'm drunk after all!) but I think spiked by itself has a magnified effect over regular eggnog or ale.

i got my first 30 mins of drunk by doing the following...

Drink Spiked eggnog, walk out outpost. Your drunkeness will be gone but you will have gotten 3 mins. Drink another and walk into outpost. Drunkeness will be gone and you get another 3 mins. I did this till i ran out and got up 30ish mins for really just a few real time mins. Hope this still works.

If they have Spiked Eggnog again on Winters Day there's gonna be a lot of drunk players wandering around
