Crystallized pumice should be instant click egg shaped pumice for roughly 6 months.
Many sol ro quest mobs are in the game that should not be (icy orcs for example).
Splitpaw should be roughly lvl 5-10 with no high (25ish) lvl gnolls outside. certainly no
Ishva mal inside and no robe of the Ishva. for roughly 6 months
will post more when I think of them.

Need evidence on pumice stone and we already know the other two. Please search the forums for your topics before posting. And remember all bug threads need evidence with sources or they will be ignored.

I played on Rallos Zek back at launch and these were required items for PvP when facing druids/rangers. It wasn't Crystallized Pumice though - that was added as a replacement for Egg-Shaped Pumice which was deemed too powerful for PvP servers, It had 5 charges of instant cast Pillage Enchantment. All Egg-Shaped Pumice left in player inventory eventually got retroactively nerfed to be the same as Crystallized but not in Project1999's timeline.

You can check it's Allah page and it has references from 2000 about "quickly" removing snares in PvP - 3.0 sec cast time probably wouldn't be considered quickly.
Note that posts from as late as April 2001 and December 2000 mention it still being vendor purchasable for 16-20 plat.
You can also find rules for the Test of Tactics (GM sanctioned server-wide PvP duels) where Crystallized Pumice is one of the few clickable items allowed but Egg-Shaped Pumice was explicitly disallowed, probably due to it being instant cast.

More confirmation from a Safehouse thread where someone asks where to get Egg-Shaped Pumice in 2002 after it had been nerfed:
"Different item, egg-shaped have zero casting time and are the pre-nerf version of the crystallized pumice(which are currently sold at vendors)."
https://thesafehouse.org/forums/forum/everquest-wing/the-arena/8046-where-do-egg-shaped-pumices-drop
Even more confirmation - again from the Safehouse in a post from December 2001. A thread of PvP hints that mentions Egg-Shaped Pumice having the same function as Golem Metal Wand (which is basically a non-vendor purchased Egg-Shaped Pumice), and specifically mentioning it being different than Crystallized Pumice.

Note at this point on the timeline the Egg-Shaped had been removed from vendors but people had bought bags of them before the nerf and were re-charging them via vendors. So it got removed from vendors somewhere between late April and December 2001.
