Left Goblin Ears - Gives too much exp, needs minimum level (Classic Evidence)
Was reading up on Left Goblin ears... in summary, there is in era evidence that CLEARLY states these awarded no exp (no visible exp) if you were less than level 20 (some posts even claim as high as level 22 did not reward, but some conflicting info). In era these were mainly used for factioning, not to feed to low level alts. Evidence below to support this:

I tried looking for when this change potentially took place, my best guess is here (6/6/2000 patch notes): Quote:
I thank you for your time, let's make P99 a more classic place!! P.S. Haynar, come and swing that nerf bat... you know you want to.

I live with the memory of gnoll fangs in their hay day. What's a nerf to exp on goblin ears going to hurt tbh. Most high level players use them for the faction not the exp. That being said I have a feeling it's really not as far off as one would think at the moment. Otherwise you'd hear people talking about it a heck of a lot more. just my 2 cents.

By my calculation they are giving 4,500 experience but should be giving 1,250 experience (and NO experience if you are less than level 20). That's a pretty steep drop and if you want these for faction anyways people would use em to get exp to boot on their low level alts. I doubt people will pay 30pp per ear now with that little perk disappearing.
Also made mention of the gnoll scalp / orc scalp quests deserving a nerf, which would again drop price / benefits on those. I'm not sure on the faction gains on P99, but wiki mentions 240 ears needed to get dubious with banker. That is a lot of ching at current prices (7,200pp).

Bump for consideration. Thank you Mr Nilbog for the orc / gnoll scalp fix as well!

The Ears worked on Live from early levels till about 12-13 or so. (probably more like level 11 if I recall correctly but you could still do a tiny 1% here and 1% there until the mid to later teens by turning in lots of ears) After that the exp curve caught up and the ears were worthless past the mid teens. Making them give absolutely no experience is not classic. The data above does not reference anything below level 22. That is not enough data to warrant no experience from Ears being classic, which is absolutely not the case. Incomplete thread incomplete change.

Funny finding this thread - ears are still selling 25pp/per ear. Nice economy P99!
