Subject: RE: Shin Gauntlets and Greaves


Sunday on E'ci I was so excited when I killed my first froggy near the zone
line shortly after I arrived in lguk for the first time with a 41 pally
friend of mine and got the grieves...then in the next 15 minutes I proceeded
to find 6 more pair on dead frogs strewn up the path between the water and
the zone line and my excitement was a bit sated to say the least.

Can you say funky random number generator? It's another case of the right
place at the right time.
