i started a little late,so im not sure if you guys alrdy removed em or not but the original classic pumice stones were instant cast and the ones currently in-game have a 3.0 second cast time...

its obviously not high priority,but if you guys could allow us to buy some that would be great.

you also have 2 bags full of pre nerf pumice stones in your bank and you msged me that your muling more to alternative characters to get a niche on the market, of course you want them patched

they were only fixed and nerfed due to being over powered in pvp servers, since this is a pve server i say leave them in no need for the change

I don't think pumice was nerfed until late Velious or early luclin.

These were definitely insta cast on TZ and shortly nerfed around or before kunark's release. Greatest melee pvp tool IMO.

Please post the evidence in here.

I came across some actually, I remember. Let me find it again.

Nerfed in July 2000 (I think) from instant-cast to a casting time:

I realize 99% of you probably don't care one whit about PvP, but
nevertheless, check out this link:

Read that and bump the thread. It's in regards to the recent STEALTH NERF
made by Verant, whereby all Egg Shaped Pumice have been removed from vendors
and replaced with 'Crystallized Pumice'. The difference? New pumice has a
4.5 second cast time.

Net result? Melees in PvP have just had their backs broken. Thanks
Verant. I've spent 10 months developing a troll warrior. I'm within half a
bubble of level 54 and have a solid history of roleplaying to boot. I've
put a lot of time and dedication into this character and was looking forward
to more of the same. Now you've removed the one item in the game that gave
any semblance of balance between meleers and casters, and I will either be
disgraced on the battlefield or I can quit playing PvP. Awesome choices you
present me with, and a fine example of why you shouldn't go nerfing shit for
no reason.
