u can do it with charmed pets.

in classic you could do it to any mob without it being charmed.

Does anyone have any (non-anecdotal) evidence of this? We could post an official bug for it.

To be clear so someone doesn't lose something they thought they could get back.
The charmed pet will USE the items, but if you kill them they will not drop the item. So it's a 1 time thing if you want to give your charmed pet a a steel hilted flint dagger or something.

You should get the item back, it just doesn't work that way on p99 right now.

I was telling my permagroup about this last night. I looted some good things in NQ newbie garden. We tried it with an Orc Oracle in Misty, he showed it but no getting it back.

A dupe exploit possibly?

I know for a while during classic it was possible to trade no-drop gear to mobs, kill the mob, and then let someone else loot it. No-drop gear should definitely not be returned after it's been traded (that is classic). I also know there have been recent bug reports of the charm-situation that just haven't been addressed yet.

I chalk most of these long-standing not-classic issues up to limited time & a big focus on velious. Once that's out the door hopefully some of those issues can be addressed.

I'd rather have this than Velious.

I know there was a change to quest givers (which also had the potential to remove MQ'in) where they would state "I don't need this item" or whatever, instead of simply taking the items and adding to their loot table.

This is probably why they have to custom code/enable MultiQuesting on certain quests on p99 (since the default is for the NPC to reject the items, unless they are charmed).

I can't find the screenshot I had via the wayback machine from back in the day (all you can find on my old site is a link I had to the image titled, "Rubicite Clad Priest of Discord", but I doubt that is good for proof).

Being as I had looted the rubicite on a level 1 troll, I did not have the POD charmed when I gave him the full rubicite set that he proceeded to wear.

The greatest version of equipping npc's without a doubt goes to FoH equipping revamped Cazic Thile with haste and dispell weapons. Witness the birth of Mecha-Cazic
