DARK ELF HIDE GLOVES!!!!

ac 4 dex and agi +5 wt 1.0 bard rogue only magic

Yes the troll that sold em to me assured me that they were DE gloves since he ripped em off a froggie and froggies dont like inkies. Ok, you can axe - they do sell for 75pp but I got what i think is a great deal at 50pp! Some day a desparate rogue will pay me 100pp <eg> and I'll go back to my bear hide or have my lion skin gloves by then. I declined a Troll Hide belt at 75pp. Musta been a hell of a day deep in Guk somewhere.

Sylly

p.s. also looted an Aviak necklace dex +1 wis +1 lore no drop. tried to give to a lev 2 bard by giving to a snake first and have him kill the snake. as luck would have it - snake i picked had a full loot load and the charm dissappeared into the mists. practiced with a muffin and a fire beetle. i never see fire beetle with more that 2 eyes and guessed that all these newbie mobs have 3 loot slots. so if you are gonna try this trick -- beware - you can lose the item if the mob has a full loot load.

p.s.s. there ia a 'good' npc in north qeynos - out side the gate to the west who whines about being almost killed by those dogs. i killed him by accident one time - so he's real low level. cant remember what factions got hit - it was before i even knew about faction. but he has the normal amount of slots for a hummie or half elf and you could give to him - then kill him to pass the no drop item with more chance of not losing it.

p.s.s.s. is it worth it to do all these shenanigans? prolly not - just go kill the mob who drops the items. But in all games (and computer programs) if it can be done - it will be done!
