I have not returned to the game since I originally posted the weight of
bronze to be less than platemail.
I assume I was incorrect given the number of people who have corrected me,
so I withdraw my assertion.
I do remember checking it out, and the weight difference was not very great
in any case, even if bronze was slightly heavier.
About Paw loot: Staves sell for 35 plat on Fenin Ro, and the snakeskin
armor goes anywhere from 4 to 8 plat. One staff, 12 snakeskin and some gems
and research item easily gives 100 plat per haul.
And of course you are right about Zixx. I haven't even tried him yet . . .
but it is easy to just leave him alone.
