Probably skin of milk. Useless on melee. Would be good to give to casters.

Unless Rogean spent time patching this, weird stuff of some description is going to start happening if you put more than 4,294,967,295 coins of a type on a character. They're stored as 32 bit unsigned integers in eqemu and I don't actually see any bounds checking, though I admittedly didn't look that hard. The most likely thing is that you would wrap around and suddenly have 0, but the amount of cash is used in various contexts and copied between different data types in parts of the system that I wouldn't rule out the possibility of an exploit somewhere without a ton more code analysis than I feel like doing.

Noone is getting 4 billion platinum without the kind of multi person concerted effort that is probably never happening, but this is actually a warning for some people: if you have a 4.3 million+ plat bank, either as a guild bank or as an active EC trader, do not convert this to copper unless you feel like risking all your money to test how well eqemu/Rogean did their overflow error handling.

Thats exactly why the "maximum" level in Asheron's Call at release was 126. That very same number was the precise amount of total XP acquired when you "dinged" 126.

There's a lot of video game limits aligned to 128/256/32,767/65,535/2,147,483,647/4,294,967,295 for signed and unsigned 1 byte, 2 byte and 4 byte integers. Its why all the old world raid bosses cap out around 32k HP, its why the City of Heroes influence cap was set to 2 billion, and why you maxed out at 255 Rupees in the Legend of Zelda. Its also why Gagnam style broke Youtube's video counter by being the first video to pass 2,147,483,647 views and go negative.
