This month sees the return of the salvage sale, the artifact cart, and a direct lesson sale! As always, these can be found on our website at www.aetolia.com/credits

– Every 100 credits purchased from the website will come with a piece of antiquated salvage, typically valued at 200 credits.

– Once you obtain the first level, you can use any salvage you like to upgrade it.
– For those unfamiliar with how salvage works, check out HELP ANTIQUATED ARTIFACTS.
– For specific breakdowns of each item, see HELP ANTIQUATED [RING/GOGGLES/GAUNTLET/CROP/SCEPTER].
