I think this is great fun, worthy of posting, and in the spirit of good community building. Everyone involved seemed to agree on the worthwhile value of the trade, nobody walked away upset, and it makes for a pleasant story amidst the barrage of unhappy merger posts.

Your next should be a mid-range chest piece (Flowing Black Robe or Bloodstained Tunic) for some nutty volume of useful but easy consumables. Like 10-15 stacks of batwings or bone chips.

At the end of the day both parted ways happy. Props to OP!

Honestly you people are the worst sometimes, try complaining less.

Not sure if these are dropping yet http://wiki.project1999.com/Robe_of_Enshroudment since the quest isn't in for the robe, but that could be a nice one for a necro since it drops off 40 necro mob.

Might do something more along the lines of what you recommend since it'll be open to more people.

To the person that said 100 is "excessive."

It's gotta be fun, but TBH, there has to be some pain involved. It is an EPIC quest. Think of when you did your epic. Any annoying, rare or painful parts? Absolutely. That's what made it epic and where we get the word "passion" and "patience."

I gave away tons of boxes of abukar to my guild and newbies in Grobb.

I'll take all the virtue signal and oo look at me points. Thank you.

More seriously, this is a good thing to do in the spirit of questing.

I really do like the idea behind it, I think its really cool, and totally in the right direction, my point wasn't that it was excessive, its that its not only more then the value of said item on the market, its for an item that benefits you on an alt, that they could use to raise level. thats all, next time make it profitable for them and difficult for them without being self profitable so much. but its totally a really cool idea

He isn't even using these to lvl a alt.

Had manastone offering me a bulk amount of belts/ pads for an up charge. I think he wanted like 5pp per belt. Which means he would actually make more money on this marketing scheme than if he just sold the box.

Smart business I just wouldn’t post a thread like I’m some giver.

No logs, no video, no screenshots. Unconscionable, especially for alleging such a high crime.

I've kept or used every CB Belt I've bought. I've never resold. I don't need the chump change. But if you do wanna buy my stuff, I am selling a Rubi BP for 28k, PST Mannastone.

P.S. New EPIC Newbie Quest to be revealed, maybe this weekend. You will see the full spectrum of my insatiable greed by the items I will require at the hands of these newbies *cackles*
