Trading some high end things for a Scimitar of the Mistwalker

Looking to trade my White Dragon Helm, Manastone and Beads.

[Bigdaddy47]

Just gonna level with you - this will probably be impossible to find. There are only six out there on Green (including the one that came over from Teal) and i know for sure at least half the owners really treasure them/treasured them before quitting.

As the owner of one, I can tell you I wouldn't consider trading mine for anything other than a pre-nerf fungi stick (the one legacy item I didn't get on this edition of elf sim. Was there for one but lost the roll to the only one our little crew saw reeeeeeeeeee).

I can also tell you that Artelius has quit permanently and in his last will and testament wanted it deleted on stream. None of us who have access have had the heart to do it yet though.

I'm almost certain Carceret won't trade theirs, especially not for beads/WDH/manastones (they already got)

That leaves three others. Think those went to Glimrock/Dalbo/Exxedeus originally and probably bounced around their close friends all these years later.

Good luck though! Just wanted to let you know how tough this search will be and what you'll probably need to bring to the table to even get negotiations started.

Man, those names bring back memories. I didn't move to green when it launched, but I was sort of vaguely aware that a lot of the more active ALS players who moved over ended up being pretty active at the top on green.

I miss brainstorming fun strategies and things with Artelius, he was always a good sounding board for things and would reach out sometimes to ask about or share mechanics even after he moved almost entirely to green.

Yeah Blue ALS was some of the best times I've had on P99 (Burtmacklin FBI here). Still playing with Hinko in <safe space> on green these days. Few other old timers are still around.

Really miss Artelius, easily one of the most fun and creative people to ever play everquest. One of a kind guy.

[Koalindl]

I do have other stuff I could trade as well but figured ~2mill worth of items was a good starting point.

If someone is interested they could pm we and we could try to work something out

Just wait for Green 2.0. Any day now.

Undelete Discord, P99 is so boring now that you won't even be tempted to go back.

The pre-nerf fungi staff is worth WAY more than the scimitar since more classes can use it. I would say the staff is the most valuable item in the entire game. The tunic is the best item in the game, currently, though.

Unfortunately, plat is practically useless on P99 once you hit the millions, since nobody is willing to sell legacy items + everyone quit so you can't find them anyway. That's why I wish account buying, selling, and trading was allowed. Would give people something to spend plat on, to buy accounts with no-drop legacy gear (like guises or firepot binds).

[nhueter]

I disagree, account and item buying is tacky and run of the mill. The server(s) just need a hard reset when everyone agrees it would be the most interesting thing to do. Which, I would say is now for sure.

Mistwalker is priceless as far as I'm concerned. Don't think I'd even trade it for a pre-nerf fungi staff.

[WarpathEQ]

Pre-nerf fungi staff I get, tons of utility useable by all classes one of the rarest things out there, funny I was just asking the other day if they ever dropped on P99, surprised to not see even one since being on Green considering I remember them coming up for sale back in classic when high end items weren't sold as much.

This item doesn't seem that great...10/25 weapon with a combat pet proc that only does one round of attacks and then despawns?!? Struggling to see the utility there. Seems about as useful as having a manastone in ToV.

[Koalindl]

I guess the most utility would be pet tracking if for some reason you HAD to be on your ranger and wanted to pet track. Obviously you're missing the important thing though and that's the coolness factor!

Same reason people love DE masks so much, they're just damn cool. So utility be damned, I WTB a scimitar of the mistwalker but doubt anyone parting with one. In the off chance someone does want to sell, I hope they think of me.

Thought about pet tracking, then thought to myself well druids can just summon a pet...way easier then procing one for pet tracking, overlooked ranger though. Glad there is one bonifide utility for this item, $2million price tag is now warranted.

DE mask has a lot of utilities: Ultravision, faction in evil towns for banking/merchants, and can be used as a self cast junk buff.

[Castle2.0]

When the pet could stick around and get buffed to the gills, then yes, it's 'neat' at 50, but not much utility.

The plat you're spending for 15 hp regen and snare that doesn't stack with the regen line... you could just pay a priest to follow you around and heal-buff you lol.

However... the manastone. Most OP item ever. Literally irreplaceable.

[Nitestroke]

Buying other ppls accounts? Do u guys like wearing other men's underwear too?! So haggard. Yall probably pretend u earned it all too if u bought someone else's accts. The whole point of the game is to build your own character lol tf

[Kirdan]

Giving rangers access to a controllable pet for things like pet tracking and pet pulls is pretty sweet. Sure, you could just use a brazier but it's usually better to have the option of procing it over a 1-shot consumable. Best tracking skill in the game + pet track + bind sight. No other class can do all of these things at once, and the sword is the limiting factor.

Braziers are cheap, insta click and do not require melee. Sometimes fighting or even aggroing a mob to get proc can be a bad idea.

Jus sayin. But I hope this man gets his toy!

[Koalindl]

Thanks i hope i get one too but not gonna hold my breath. I do have various options to trade with, including some of the minor doze tears or various droppables. I value the scimitar around 2-3m worth of trades so just keeping this post here in case it interests any of the scimitar holders

[Dildy]

I'll sell my scimitar for 69 million plat.

Could you post obs it procing? Have never seen it

[Bigdaddy47]

just cut some riveting mistwalker obs for ya... i got lucky it procced right as the mob began to flee. if you get attacked and don't spam pet back itll suicide itself into it (does a single round of attacks before disappearing into the mist-can double for like 104 each, kick and bash in that time frame).

It's a completely controllable, normal shaman pet for as long as you keep it (which is pretty easy spamming back and then nuking/shooting the mob or just doing /pet guard a bit away then going back to finish mob while spamming back).

You do realize account trading/selling/buying was allowable in real '99. It took awhile before it got banned. To take it a step further, when EQ2 was released, Sony actually built their own account selling/trading site, lol.

The reason why it got banned here on P99 was due to staff issues. They were some issues with people abusing it in-game. They got tired of dealing with said issues. Even with people being banned, this didn't stop, so they said no more. In other words, a few people screwed us all over, lol.

And also the main reason this was a great feature here was it allowed people with a lot of plat an avenue to spend plat. I sold accounts up to 750k range here. These were accounts that had unique no-drop items that were no longer obtainable. Items like pre-nerf guise, firepot binding, gm event loot (unlimited firework clicky). Nobody bought accounts to advance in the game. The people buying accounts were already established and plat. None of the accounts I sold had a fully geared character on it but they all sold fast.
