Doing research on... well, research

[Inamsav]

Can anyone tell me when the first recipe for Remove Greater Curse was made? I could have *sworn* that this recipe didn't come out until sometime during or after LDoN, but someone on EQLive said it was released before LDoN.

Anyone able to verify either way for me?

The spell first became researchable when Legacy of Ykesha was released -- LoY was the first research revamp. Using the new combine containers available at quest NPCs at the Gunthak lighthouse, for the first time recipes became available to allow skilling up beyond the original 227 dead-end point. Prior to that new RGC recipe (using the rare Yaeth's 73 right), your options were to loot a copy from one of the Ssra Rhag's or simply do without. LDoN merely made the spell available for purchase using adventure points.

The earliest mention of the RGC spell I find within the "Database - Completed" subforum is dated 09-06-2003.

Release dates:
# The Legacy of Ykesha (February 2003)
# Lost Dungeons of Norrath (September 2003)
