"They are dropped off VS in KC. The pictures are different because the effect was bugged, my gaunts had the effect, transmute hammer, but i never clicked em because they then turned into a cleric hammer and then back into the cleric gloves, but never back into the orig gaunts.

I got them a long time ago, and have never heard of them dropping again. They may have been taken outta the loot table considering they are better than the majority of robes an int caster can find out there anyway."

"Ciid Cypher of Dark Brethren on Terris Thule recently obtained what will now be the most sought after pure caster hand gloves in the game."


While the others could be commentary, those are direct. Is it so hard to believe that verant had a clicky on 1 item that was later moved to another?
I read them but again they are just people speculating shit

that is not proof whatsoever and its sad that sometimes a few randos from the year 2000 talking about items they know nothing about except second hand knowledge from other people can get our game changed.

I already clearly laid out a highly likely scenario for why there was such confusion and speculation about these two sets of gloves and where they came from. I find it odd however that most your evidence is from clerics drooling over the Vib gloves rather than any quotes of Shissar gloves transmuting and never reverting. A few players were confused at how they were suppose to work but no where any hard evidence it existed.

You have shown no:

1. patch notes saying the gloves have been removed from VS
2. patch notes saying the effect on Shissar gloves have been altered
3. lucy data showing an update in the item
4. screenshot of Shissar gloves with an effect

absolutely nothing but some noob clerics wondering where those amazing gloves come from. In fact, in your evidence some were arguing that the the VS gloves were indeed different

the final poster says

The quote from the other board is inaccurate. The cleric glove/hammer item is only that. The Shissar gloves become a different item when right clicked.

So not everyone was agreeing with what the gloves actually did or how they worked.

is your best hope at evidence - Shissar gloves with listed Effect Transmute Hammer

however if you notice - its not even a screenshot and thusly cannot hold up in our court of law

Its a simple typed update, one that can easily be inaccurate, esp since Casters Realm was known to not be the epitome of accuracy



If your entire premise is banking on this guy's quote, then this is just sad. When did Jaldarith become an effcienado of loot tables?

Venril Sathir drops them more commonly than the Overking does, but the Overking CAN drop them.

He not only does not put his character name or level in his signature but its a completely random dude posting on a forum- if we are to accept forum speculation as proof of anything it would hopefully come from a respectable raiding guild that knows what they are talking about. Not Randos

anyway - keep looking up more 'evidence' - VS doesnt drop Vibrating gloves and never did unless it was a short lived, undocumented bug.
