At 5 o'clock AM, Day of the Great Gods, 12th of the Month of Nature
on the Theran calendar Ubekoz perished, never to return.

I'm sad to see Ubekoz go. I enjoyed having you as a leader, I think you did awesome. Thanks for putting in the time!

177 hours for Maran seems a little...

Wed Dec 2 10:15:06 2020 at level 32 (70 hrs):
Inducted into FORTRESS by Garful <PK: 1-4>

Tue Dec 29 14:45:47 2020 at level 40 (177 hrs):
Azorinne made Ubekoz a Maran <PK: 7-14>


That's 107 hours as a Squire, before making Maran, which is a long time granted. But, his PK record kind of sucked, and he was level-sitting. That's two pretty significant strikes against him. Yet despite that, he STILL did Maran pre-hero, and pre-10 EPKs (the traditional threshhold), so that's pretty good.

If you want to make Maran quick, there's basically 3 things you have to do:
1. Get 10 EPKs as quick as possible
2. Get into hero range
3. Be a visible leader towards the other Squires (lead raids, offer advice, call people out if they're being idiots, etc).

I'm betting Ubekoz did the third pretty well, and that's why he made Maran (and leader) pre-hero. But if he did the first two, he definitely would've done it faster.
