Look for some of these items, they may help you out in the short to long
term with your STR problems:

Bracer of Erollisi is 2AC +5STR, you can only have one at a time (LORE ITEM)
so if you put the Erollisi bracer on one arm and then put your bronze bracer
on the other, the graphic for the bronze will show up on both of your
Avatar's arms even though you have the Erollisi bracer on (leather based).
With a group you might be able to get one yourself, the Captain drops them
almost every time.

Jagged Band is AC5 STR+3 and I have seen them for as low as 80pp on E'ci,
you are far too young to camp for it on your own

Bloodstained mantle is AC6 STR+3 magic+10 and sells for as low as 30 or 35pp
on E'ci, again an item you are a bit to young to camp yourself.

As a bard, keep an eye out for the Trollhide belt, AC5 STR+5 STA+5, although
this item probably sells for 100-150pp - just an FYI

I personally wear 2 +5CHA 2AC Opalline earrings because I did not make my
natural CHA so high to start with, but for you, you could look for STR
increasing earrings instead to help out as well.

Hail and well met fellow bards of Norrath,

I come to you today with several small problems looking for assistance and
advice. When I first joined this list, you all seemed to think that the
major component of a bard's attributes was Charisma, so on all of the
suggestions I axed my human bard with low charisma (who's body I could not
recover anywho) and made my half-elf bard with a whopping 110 starting
charisma. Anyway.....

That has now come back to bite me in the ass. I am now at level 20
(FINALLY!!!!!!) and am in search of bronze plate. Unfortunately, med bronze
seems incredibly rare (and expensive-I still haven't found the cash cow that
everyone talks about hehe) to purchase. So I am now in Permafrost where the
bronze lives. So now I have 3 pieces-breastplate, sleeves (vambraces,
whatever) and a mask. Only problem is that now I am only 10 from my total
carrying weight (which is a whopping 82 buffed). I plan on just getting the
visible pieces, minus the boots-they just seem so uncomfortable. With a
pair of greaves, one bracer and the helm, I shan't be able to carry anything
anymore!

Here are my questions:

Please tell me of STR items it would be possible for me to get. (I have one
ring (I forget what kind) +2, and a purity belt, and a spiked collar.)
Please bear in mind that I am poor (50pp in the bank on a good day) and I
like to live.
Also if any other people out there know off the cuff, who drops the greaves
(bronze leggings) and the bronze helm in Permafrost. Is it a named somebody
or is it a random thing?

Thank you all in advance!
