Platinum Etched Eye Rune

[Eanelder]

Bit curious about this item:

Platinum Etched Eye Rune
MAGIC ITEM
This item can be used in tradeskills.
WT: 0.5 Size: SMALL
Class: NEC WIZ MAG ENC
Race: ALL

Given that its INT caster only ... Im figuring its for research but nothing i heard about in beta.

It dropped off the Gnome Raid in Vergalid this past week.

[Ngreth Thergn]

Bah. It should be ALL/ALL

it is what I used to replace the "body drop" stationary so I would not affect the economy when I added stationary to global loot.

Mind explaining a little further ... Im not quite sure i get it.

Can that item be used in tradeskills? research specifcially?

[Ngreth Thergn]

it is just cash loot

Those scrolls had a monetary value.

I added them to the global loot table so I needed to remove them from the body loot tables (body loot is NPC specific loot, global loot is well... global)

I did not want to double the drop rate.

so I replaced the body loot with items of equal value, but no tradeskill use in order to not make those NPC's suddenly drop less cash.

The cash loot should probably not have the tradeskill tag, then.

[Ngreth Thergn]

oops

so I need to change to ALL/ALL and remove the TS flag.

Heh

So I can prolly sell the Silver Etched Eye Rune as well. You know us tradeskillers ... put a tradeskill tag on it and we'll save it forever.
