Aristeia

From LSWiki

There's an Aristeia guild in a temple. You can get to it from everywhere. It's pretty great.

Maybe check out the book.

Achievement Effects and Development

Achievements generally affect how your attack, damage, dodge and deflection values are calculated by increasing the ratios on how specific skills related to the achievement are calculated. Some achievements may only take effect during specific events as outlined in its individual help information (such as being poisoned, in a specific combat mode, and so forth).

Achievements will normally have to be set as 'active' (from adoption of exemplification) for their primary effects of rating calculation to take place.

The only known difference between adopting and exemplification of an achievement is the amount of time before you can swap active achievements. Adoption requiring a three minute cool-down, while exemplification requires 3 hours. This means you may have up to six achievements active at any given moment, and may switch up to three of them within ten minutes time.

Not all achievements affect the same combat ratings, some may just give discharge rating increases or only damage, attack, or dodge ... etcetera.

Not all achievements which affect combat ratings appear to give the same skill weight ratios, at rank one a achievement may only add a fraction of its related skill while another might add a larger portion. The way the ratio develops as the achievement progresses is also different.

All achievements appear to develop from combat, and at different rates of progression.

Some achievements appear to give bonus specialties even when not selected active, so it could be worth-while to develop them for free specialty points.
