Game Mechanics: Give a charmed pet a torch = Quad?

[Somekid123]

Im hearing from people that if you give an NPC you charmed "a torch" which has no stats and is secondary only, it'll allow it to quad. I don't recall this being classic if so ill try and dig up info unless someone happens to post otherwise that it is.

Whatever happen to the rusty weapon combos? Im more so annoyed running through The Hole trying to find newbs a Smoldering Brand to give away, killing the mob wasting my time / mana and it drops nothing due to it being "a torch" and NPC's not returning items given to them.
