    I'll wait for confirmation of this, then add it when someone pipes up.

    All I do is click "Test", then answer "Yes" and she gives me 500 gold & 500 exp... I must be Virtuous...

    Where is the one in "Kingsport", I can't find it for the life of me? Thanks...

    It is towards the back of the scene. If you follow the river it is in the woods near the back exit. Moon Trainer is also back there if you want the specific coordinates (stuck at work and not in game or I'd give you the /loc data for the shrine itself).

    Wizards Rest (just above Owl's Head in the Hidden Vale) has an oracle, not to mention some good vendors and a beautiful town center.

    This is the method I use. We have a functioning Oracle in Rift s End. It's an NPC building choice for PoT owners.

    For the Path of Love, the Oracle seems to like the fact that I gave the old bum outside the Bank in Ardoris a coin. I tend to throw one his way every once in awhile in order to stay on the Oracle's good side (and keep my Virtue cloak glowing blue).

    (Yesterday, the Oracle confided in me that I was her favorite! ) LOL

    I just read that they are adjusting the timer for the Oracle to reset at midnight eastern time. I obviously haven't had a chance to try it yet, but sounds like if you visit just before midnight, you can just wait a couple minutes and you'll be able to do 2 days worth in one visit.

    Is that intended or should there be at least a small timer to negate that tactic?

    It's intended, and it's not actually a tactic.

    If you immediately do the Oracle after midnight after seeing her just before midnight, you won't be able to see her again till after midnight that day (so it's always 24 hours even if your first time seemed so close together).

    Right, not a big deal. I was just curious if that was allowed. I see a lot of midnight-ish oracle visits in my future. ;)

    Yep it's going to make it a ton easier now we don't have to mentally compute the cooldown in exact hours. Going to add this info to the OP :3

    Just remember to do it every other midnight if you want to double dip. 8^)

    Awesome post. I've struggled to give the right answer for weeks. Pretty much stopped going. Not anymore!

    The midnight reset was to help the casual folk who can't play at the same time every night. For instance one night you may play at 10 pm. The other night may be 5 pm. If they don't do midnight reset, you won't be able to take the test if you can only login and play until the time you take the test the day before.

    Huh. I noticed that my oracle confirmatory bench is now gone. Did the Oracle have to sell it off to raise gold?

    I noticed it too, they probably realised it was kinda right in the way when we walk in and decided to do something sensible like remove it.

    Room looks less appealing now though...

    agreed... there was no point in sitting anyway... I sometimes talk to the Oracle on the door and quickly finish everything before the door closes... LOL
