Game Mechanics: Torches Underwater turns to starstaff

I have the torch of Alna, if I go underwater and requip torch it turns to a starstaff instead of a torch with no flame. Not that urgent...star staff actually looks kinda cool.

I think they were just to lazy to fix it on live, so they called it a Easter egg.

Kinda like pulling a steve jobs:"touching my phone here makes it lose signal" SJ: "no, thats a feature."

It was classic. It was also fairly unknown, and was cool as hell to run around with the starstaff and make people go "wtf!?".

I think this weapon uses the graphic you are talking about. Does anyone else remember this event? http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=6456

I don't think fire elementals should be usable in water and torches should get destroyed if they are equipped while you're swimming. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also, I want a staff like that.
