Miscellaneous: Leatherfoot Sandals (minor timeline adjustment)

[Rygar]

I have no way of testing this in game, so not 100% if this was implemented, but when Leatherfoot Sandals are first added to revamped Inny, they should have standard Leather Boots look (old world leather).

Tigole of Legacy of Steel launched a successful 'Viva La Fur' campaign to get these changed to have no graphic, which was done in the 4/17/2001 patch.

I realize this is a very tiny detail that almost no one cares about, just figured you may want to know for refresh server.

And I looted the Leatherfoot Sandals.

I started a thread on the Safehouse about these sandals. The whole balance of Everquest as we know it lies in peril over a GREAT mistake made with this item. When worn, the sandals look like leather boots. This is no good. Let us Halflings show off our sexy, furry feet. We want NO graphic on these sandals. For the love of the Vale, Verant, correct this horrible mistake. It's a priority as I see it.

Verant kindly provided Inno with odor eaters at least for the halflings, though Nedden himself was not to thrilled with this

Nedden tells you, 'lol I was hopin these bad boys had no graphic, so my hairy feet could get some air =P'

Oh by the way, regarding the patch. . .I'd like to thank all my fellow Halflings who participated in the Protest Thread on the Safehouse regarding the Leatherfoot Sandals. Who says one Halfling can't start a revolution? Viva La Fur.
