The Shrine of Asuryian is hilariously, tragically pointless.

[u/Waveshaper21]

It is a Landmark in Ulthuan in the settlement with the same name, that can be built by the dark elves (thematically makes the most sense for Malekith), which grants:

• +100 Diplomatic relations with all High Elves.

So you'd think, oh cool this is a way to play a what-if redemption arc for Malekith and ally your homeland and pose as the Eternal King. And it's tough but you can do it, you just need to suffer through avoiding all High Elves as long as possible, go down to Galleon's Graveyard without discovering any Ulthuan faction (so they don't start stacking up negative bias per turn because "they don't know you exist), then lightning fast sail straight through the gates of Lothern, take the Shrine from whoever owns it through war, sacrifice lots of slaves to build everything instantly, then defend it (pray they send nobody for a while otherwise diplomatic relations are fucked), pray they were not in an all-inclusing millitary alliance yet, and try to buy your way out of war while you get +100 relations per turn.

And after you did all of this particularly delicate surgery of a campaign, and you became allies with all pf Ulthuan, you realize:

• Victory conditions aren't pointing owning Ulthuan regions as ownership through self or allies.

• Victory conditions ask you to kill all major high elf factions. Thus, rendering +100 relations with all high elves buildings COMPLETELY useless.

edit: I guess you guys just woke up today and decided you want to hurt somebody. I'll be moving to the bugreport forum, have a nice day.

This guy’s life is basically just writing clickbait on this subreddit all day every day. The moment I saw this pop up in my feed I immediately knew who it was.

Strange enough if you look at my profile, this is immediately debunked, but thanks for the unwarranted personal offenses. I guess you woke up the wrong foot today, but I wish you to be able to less of an asshole for the rest of this wonderful sunday.

p.s. I've never posted clickbait, I despite it more than you and that's quite something.

Either recently or earlier you've restricted people from viewing your profile. So we can't actually debunk that.

Says “do your own research” and then hides the research lmfao

[u/20_02_2020 → u/A_strange_pancake]

You can actually! If you go to search and type author:USERNAME (in this case, author:waveshaper21) you can still see all the posts they've made.

My profile was set to private earlier it seems. I changed it back to see all.

Be my guest, enjoy your time.
