Not a rant or primal scream, but I don't know where else to put this.
After I attacked an aggro greenie today with two Opal Encrusted Steins in my hands for about the millionth time (matched only by the number of times I have bought and sold at merchants without equipping them), it dawned on me that those two steins are the oldest items I have that I still use regularly on my warrior, now that the J-boots have been put away.
I still have deluxe sewing kits on some characters and I guess those are older, but my warrior hasn't used his in ages.
Now, my bazaar mule / one time druid about town / tailor - is still holding a crude stein and wearing two golden cat-eye bracelets. He finally ditched the cha earrings (whose name I no longer recall) for one opal stein some time ago. I suspect that the crude stein is far and away the oldest item I have that I still use regularly, and the bracelets are in second place.
More than that, I realize that cha items have been the one constant ever since I started playing. I used to have a set of 'cha gear' for all my regular characters, though those were eventually replaced by the opal steins on all but my mule.
When I finally make some Stormguard for my warrior and get a couple pieces with symbols on, I believe that will give me 115+ cha with my regular gear and the steins will leave the bottom two slots in my bottom backpack for the last time. In some ways it will be a sad day. The two steins on my warrior were bought for 750 pp each in front of the North Freeport bank a day or so after they were introduced in game. I think I was probably one of the first on my server to buy them and even though the price dropped like a rock a couple days later, I never felt ripped off.
Haven't needed resist gear in a long time - even the tradeskilling set has disappeared - but the 'cha set' lives on. Just wonder how many of you are in the same boat.
