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.

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).

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.

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.

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.

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
