Ummm, Sylly? - or are you replying to me?

I've yet to get a piece of bronze - still in all banded which I bought one
piece at a time as I could afford it. Don't even WANT bronze, too dang
heavy for little ole woodelf me.

And yeah - the little things are what *I* enjoy - I only bash monsters when
I have to. My motivations and enjoyment is almost the exact opposite of
what Verant obviously thinks folks 'should' be wanting to do.
