*p pocketbelt*


It has 575 months of usefulness left.
It weighs about 1 pounds and 0 ounce(s).
A pocketbelt is holding:
6

Well, uh...thanks. Good of you to tell me. I'll make sure to remember where to look when I next need a 6. tongue.gif

This post was brought to you today by the letter Z, and the number... 6.

Hey, you could always run a Lusternian children's aether show. *snicker* You could use that 6 there.

Ban Shiri.


Edit: Damn you for getting there faster than me, Richter. But ban Shiri anyway.

I once looked at potion list and saw I have 515 vials. Then I looked again and found that I have 63 vials. I tend to try to put 50 vials in my pack, and it only puts in 30 or so. Some reason I never got bothered by it, or typo'd or bugged it. but your pocketbelt reminds me of that.

I hate that when I'm bashing. *i* You have 12 essence. *drop 12 essence* You drop 6 essence. *i* You have 0 essence. Oh well. *get essence* *put essence in tree* *i* You have 6 essence. ...*etc.*

That's not a bug. Often times, essence resets to the corpse while you are holding it.. GET ESSENCE FROM works

Well, if essence resets to the corpse while I'm holding it, it is a bug.

Just a bug of a different nature than I'd assumed. tongue.gif

Naw, this is standard behavior for quest-type items in IRE games. Pearls in oysters and oozes, the bellows from the goblin smith in Achaea, for example, all reset to the corpses. The strategy is to offer the essence you have, wait for the reset, get more essence out of the corpses, then offer that too. You can really get twice the essence from each corpse if you are patient and thorough.

Ayeap.

No, no. I mean, I have 12 in my inventory, and it jumps back in the bodies. I'm actually LOSING some, because then I don't get extra from the bodies. This isn't when I offer the corpse or anything, it's when I drop it off the moon falls.

Ah, Shiri, I'm having that exact problem with one of my pocketbelts - let me know if you figure out the answer.
Shiri2005-02-02 23:27:42
It's not mine, it's something one of my friends showed me. I'll just post here if it gets fixed. happy.gif

I could swear I saw that on a runebag too...
