Game Mechanics: Purified Water using Sop Bark

[amethyst]

Hi,

I was trying to create purified water using Tracker's Water Extractor, a Purification Tablet and Sop Bark and received the message "You cannot combine these items in this container type." I very easily may be wrong, but wasn't this recipe implemented near the time of Kunark's release (rather, when purification tablets were introduced)?

In trying to research this, I found http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=3669 which has dated posts of players figuring out a purification tablet may be combined with a water reed in the extractor container to create purified water. EQ Traders shows that water reed as well as other random Kunark foraged crap (including sop bark) can also be used to create purified water http://www.eqtraders.com/search/reve...r=010000000000 (this is not dated back to 2001, though).

I hope someone can shed some light on this. Thanks!
