Firstly I would like to thank everyone at the p99 staff who put in so much effort to make this server possible.

As today's patch looks like it is meant to bring us to the Oct 2001 timeline, I believe the quest below should be activated.

This quest (Alla link, p99 wiki link) was added in October 2001 as evident by the comments on this page:

Garath is in game, but the quest does not work.

Added Garath to appear in ~Oct2001, and offer the weapon exchanges. Fixed, pending update

Here are some additional research links pointing towards 10/2001:

What about the Lungi trade; when did it become available?

I'm trying to think of all the cases here. If Garath appears in Oct2001, and somehow the sleeper is still sleeping, the Lungi isn't even available. I added an additional check to ensure a 'post-sleeper' condition for him to discuss Lungi trading.

Does anyone know more about this?

Legend. Thanks!

I don't recall Lungi being a thing back when I played, so can't help there. Sorry.

Dug into this Lungi thing, don't know terribly much about it but it appears to have something to do with a sleepers tomb revamp? Magelo has initial entry of 9/26/02.

Shroud is now kinda replaced by the-not-really-anywhere-as-good Lungi of
the Forbidden (woot SMR). Smolder is junk now. Salindrite and SoD no
equivalents but better (sometimes much) found elsewhere. Dainty Gloves,
ROFL. Dwarf Mask > Gnome Mask.

Prismatic much more common than Primal ever was, some *gasp* stuff for Int
and Wis casters and an assortment of other nice enough bits which often
drop 3 and 4 at a time.

On balance since the last revamp Sleeper being awake is no great disaster
unless you really, really wanted a Shroud in which case you should have got
your wannabe-uber arse in gear a whole lot sooner.

It appears as if swapping them with Garath did not occur until April 28, 2004 patch:

Items
-----------------------
- Skill percent-mods now work for Ammo slot items.
- Grand Tunic of the Oracle and the Grand Robe of the
Oracle have had a type 7 augmentation slot added to them.
- Lungi of the Forbidden will display a robe graphic once
again. Monks and Beastlords will be able to swap the robe
in for a leather looking BP with the same stats by visiting
Garath the Trader in East Wastes. You will be able to
swap the items back and forth with Garath for your desired
look. (Lungi? Lungi? What is a Lungi?)

Should be good for next patch.

Fixed, pending update

Thanks nilbog!

Can you confirm the fists will be 1hb? From the comments on alla, they weren't changed to h2h until some time after Luclin.
