What is this?

I was doing some exploring and found this on the second floor of the Samson building downtown (the one under construction following the Qulaar invasion). It is embedded in the floor next to a cement mixer.

The writing looks Celtic or Tolken/Middle Earth-like.

Anyone know what this is?

not sure what their intent is, but they are norse runes. from the top its ansuz, mannaz, fehu, ehwaz, perth and ansuz again.

Translated to English letters they are A, M, F, E, P, A and their meanings are God, Man, Wealth, Horse, Gambling, and God again. As for their in game use, and any correlation, I have no idea

it was probably put there by the original devs as some sort of in-joke...but on the off-chance it's a recent addition, it's probably creepy-related

Just checked after the Bloodmoon event - it's still there. So it probably isn't connected to that.

They also represent runes for runic magic. An Mani Flam Ex Por An. Or, Negate life flame freedom movement negate in a literal sense. Or probably a spell, or prophecy about being free to destroy life with fire without consequence.

It's the top of a skull marked with runes, and is a Mysticism Node.

Yep

Yeah, I'm legit surprised that this thread got to 7 posts without someone mentioning the blindingly obvious(to me anyways).

Haha!

So it is simply a crafting node that is sunk too low in the concrete? LOL!

And here I thought it would be something really mysterious. HA!

Would you like to know more?

Several of the crafting nodes were designed with features that could show based on the elevation of the node compared to the surface they are placed on. This can radically change their look at times, based on how much is visible, and how much is "submerged".

It's also the words Fae Map.

See "what is this?" expected a Barry Burton thread. Disappointed.
