TOPIC: 2020 QTR Beta (please proof)

Beta 8 is out:
QTR 2020.08 Beta
We need to wrap this up, to please fine-tooth it then post any needed changes promptly.
If September 12 does not appear in the footer, you're looking at an old version.
Now is the time to check for any odd page breaks and weird bullet points.

Friendly Reminders:

• This is not the thread to discuss recipes. Please go here to do that.
• If you'd like to discuss the Jasper Ellipsoid , this is not the thread for that either.

In the amazingly trivial category, on page 17, the check box for the 2020 Treasure Chip is slightly smaller than the other check boxes which also causes the 2020 to not line up with subsequent lines.

In the possibly trivial but potentially very significant category, is it intentional that Monster Trophy 6 is separated from the other Monster Trophies rather than listed on the line after Monster Trophy 5?

Is the "Top Secret Stuff We Can’t Tell You About Yet So Don’t Tell Anyone You Heard About This From Me! We Cool?" on the checklist going to be changed or is that what we're going with?

interesting question

Under 2019 Transmuted Recipes
Kilt of Dungeonbane is listed as (Star) after the name vs just a star. Is this because it is a eldritch?

What is the 6 point star on page 25 referencing? Is it the ANY* of Wideseth and Charm of Treasure Boosting? If so it is a bit confusing because those are 5 point stars. The 6 point star is on the Monster Bits of Orion's Belt which has its own reference point of RELIC RECIPE FRAGMENTS may not be substituted for these ingredients. However it does make it look like duplicates are fine.

The second recipe for Widseth's Legendary Lute begins with 'WLL' (might be intentional, but seems different from last year)

I learned something new today. When Word makes an asterisk bold, is changes from 6 points to 5 points. I never noticed that before. I changed those asterisks to daggers. (†)

It is different because this year, the pagination worked out so the two options were not in the same column. I felt like the second column needed a little "reminder", hence the abbreviation. I just changed "WLL" to "W.L.L." to make it (hopefully) more obvious it's an abbreviation.

That makes a lot of sense. I think between the coloration and the periods it is pretty obvious.

Sorry I don't think you caught what I meant. It isn't star in the QTR it is (star). Other relics are star. Does that make sense?

As is tradition, Relic recipe names in the QTR are dark blue and have a five-point star after the title to match the symbol seen on the token. Kilt of Dungeonbane is an Eldritch Relic , which has a five-point star on the token (as opposed to Grand Eldritch tokens which also have dark green backs, but do not have any stars), but is not in blue because it's not a Relic . I was trying to differentiate the Eldritch Relic designation from the Relic designation, so that's why the Eldritch Relic got parentheses around its star.

TLDR: The parenthetical five-point star is intentional.
