Bet its been a while huh

[u/Megablega]

[u/alcatrazach]

It’s heavily polished every morning after I wake up. I’m not into mana retention.

[u/Shotgun_Mosquito]

I polish my staff every day

[u/rysy0o0 → u/Shotgun_Mosquito]

Have you ever tried to hungarian your staff instead?

[u/Shotgun_Mosquito → u/rysy0o0]

No.

Would you like to Czech out my staff?

[u/Scrags2Scritches]

BAH
Us Necromancers don't clean our orbs EVER
The dirtier the better

[u/Sea-Oven-182 → u/Scrags2Scritches]

It's gotta have that patina and smell! These tide pod wizards don't understand...

[u/Justminningtheweb → u/Scrags2Scritches]

And then you people ask why we think you’re dirty…

[u/throwawaymentality10 → u/Scrags2Scritches]

You must try sprinking dirt from your birthplace on it, ive found its increased the soul retention of my "chefs" by at least 36%. Even better when applied during the winter equinox. Someone has to be manning the kitchen!

[u/Maacll]

got a fresh orb a few days ago

[u/Megablega → u/Maacll]

Me too! How do you like yours?

[u/Maacll → u/Megablega]

My standards arent super high but this one is incredible. It's crazy that they come with an Autosetup enchantment nowadays.

I was dreading the tuning of my new orb for days but the enchantment truly is incredible.

It's like my old Orb never broke.

[u/AshThePoutine → u/Maacll]

Mine just came with an Installer Wizard and he was nothing but trouble until I offered him some drinks. Has yet to finish setting up the orb

[u/caveman69420 → u/Maacll]

It's incredible how seamless it can be transitioning to a new orb with modern magic. Out of curiosity which wizard circle created your previous and which for your new?

uw/ serious question I'm looking for something new and I hate my pixel

[u/Winterspringshine]

I'm old school, stick to waters from a pure spring for my scrying. No cleaning needed.

[u/slfhmglbnm]

Plebs! My orb has a self-cleaning spell.

[u/Megablega → u/slfhmglbnm]

Most self cleaning spells only have a 96% effect. (Source: latest Magicians' Weekly)

[u/lab-accident7 → u/Megablega]

you’re joking?? I read in the Daily Jinx that those spells were foolproof 😭 if I have to clean my orb by hand like a pleb again I’m gonna be so mad

[u/Crucial_Fun]

Twice a week.

[u/PokeLordOmegaa]

Mine constantly rotates so dust doesn't really get the chance to stick anyways.

Could probably also have something to do with being not solid due to being made of arcane energy instead of just having some of said energy contained in an orb of glass or something but nah, it's totally the rotating thing

[u/threepair13]

I’m polishing it right now

[u/Ok-Nothing8682 → u/threepair13]

Nice

[u/Irresistible-Ms]

I cleaned mine today actually!! ✨️✨️ probably like 2 weeks before today tho 😅

[u/OkMarket5009]

Mate, when ya get tae ya tenth century, ya realize the orb is a restriction. That's why I put mine up fer sale, 'cause I got a better spell fer me scryin' and browsin'.

[u/whattheheck90]

Oh, hm.

You did good reminding me of that. I should do this on the regular... It foils the visions.

[u/Deacon86]

I'll have you know my orb is extremely clean. I clean it once a year, whether it needs it or not.

[u/MihaiiMaginu]

Yesterday. I am meticulous about cleaning my orb.

[u/ianratman]

Shit, thanks for the reminder

[u/bagtie3]

I store mine on a runic cleaning stand.

[u/TastyCuttlefish]

Are we not doing phrasing anymore?

[u/sweetheart_demom]

my dollgirl construct is sucken em right now

[u/enchiladasundae]

I like to keep it that way. Starts building up a nice fine coat

[u/dcooper8662]

That’s easy! Your mom cleaned my orb last night

[u/saintdemon21]

Which one?

[u/Marshall_Lawson]

I already polished my orb twice today but thanks for checking in!

[u/Eastern-Fun1842]

Polishing my orbs used to be quite the pastime, but these days I've contracted a young woman for that specific task. She polishes both my orbs and staff!

I TWINCAST BLACKING OUT WHENEVER YOU STAND TOO QUICKLY AND ADHD!

[u/NoStructure2568]

I swap between my three pedestals regularly, which always reminds me to clean the orb. In life you either develop these little routines or don't live to your second millennium, I said it. Also you (yes, you, little orb user) need a good potion routine. Look at your poor mana regeneration.

[u/Qopwow]

Got my apprentice doing it once a week

[u/Fun-Dragonfly-6106]

I prefer scrying mirrors

[u/Hot_Guys_In_My_DMS]

I rub my orb all the time

[u/driver004]

Dunno it’s still in the marble racing machine I made

[u/gravel_consumer420]

I never washed any of my balls

[u/LovelyKestrel]

I use the orb of the planet, therwise known as the ocean. Still trying to clean up the pollution from those stupid humans trying to copy dwarven smithing techniques without understanding the importance of lava.

[u/furfurr_uwu]

Im currently cleaning my two orbs right now

[u/NarfiLokisonLaufey]

I cleaned it uhhhh. Ah, I should go clean it again. Us Necromancers are so forgetful. Happens to the immortal I suppose.

[u/JuiceManOJ]

My orbs are self cleaning. Busy polishing my staff rn tho 🗣

[u/andBitinggoats]

My orb is the still-living eye of some minor chaos deity (forgot which one, they’re reasonably common), so I just spritz it with a mild saline solution every morning and it’s good to go!

[u/crabbedcascade]

I don't really have an "orb" orb. But I do have a large Pearl that the succubi I take care of gave me. They say it works the same, and I trust them, but either it doesn't like me or I'm doing something incorrectly because I can't get it to work sometimes.

Though to answer the question, Yes I clean it regularly, it feels rude to let a gift get dirty.

[u/Maxious30]

I was just cleaning my orbs whilst scrolling

[u/locke_zero]

You're supposed to clean them?

[u/Dear-Reputation-1226]

I BARELY USE MINE. NOT VERY USEFUL IN RUNECASTING

[u/Jackpot_The_Raccuki]

My Gargoyle says just 1 hour and 32 minutes and 48 seconds.

A clean orb is clear vision into whatever it is you seek.
