There is a vendor in Qeynos that sells a silk evening shirt ( I think thats
what its called). The item gives +5CHR. I have had one for a long time and
equip it everytime I buy and sell stuff to vendors. Imagine if these new
player made silk clothing items also gave a CHR bonus. Just about every
player would have a full set just for buying/selling. Probably a good idea
that Verant didn't include the CHR bonus. It would be nice though for
newbie bards if they did. I think I'll get a full set of silk anyway for
when I'm trying to woo female wood elves at the Heartwood Tavern.
