Subject: Re: Digest Number 129


If the hinge is part of the formula, its going to be expensive to just
randomly try things to see if they work. That hinge is 13 plat a pop.
OUCH!!

Last time Verant introduced new additions to a trade was the big revamp of
tailoring, and to facilitate that they added a new book that dropped from
an orc in lesser faydark.

I wouldn't be surprised if the new recipie was similar to that, and it was
a drop from some monster.
