Miscellaneous: Tradeskill: Fish Oil Recipe Broken

[David Johnson]

I've tried to make fish oil from several brew barrels and I get the, "you cannot combine these items in this container type." This is broken and needs to be fixed.

Ok, I see the disclaimer, but lets take it one step further.

Fish oil is a sub combine of, and the only way to fashion, Large Leather Belt.

and also
Large Leather Boots
Large Leather Cloak, ect.

I guess if we need need to qualify tailoring a Large Leather belt, it is listed here under Tailoring Basic Leathers. There also a category for tailoring Velious Leathers and tailoring Luclin leathers. The large leather belt is under tailoring basic leathers and is trivial at 36.

Im sorry I forgot the conclusion,

If Fish oil is included in the only recipe that can make a Large Leather belt and tailoring a Large Leather belt is listed in EQ Traders under Tailoring Basic Leathers, is trivial at 36 and is not included in Tailoring Velious Leathers or Tailoring Luclin Leathers, then Fish Oil, which is included in the only recipe to fashion a Large Leather Belt, must have been included in the original EQ. And the recipe to create fish oil is - 1 fish eggs and 1 flask of water which are combined in a brewing barrel.

When I tried several times from different brewing barrels to combine 1-fish eggs and 1-flask of water I always get, "you cannot combine these items in this container. That is why Fish oil and its recipe must be included in p1999.

Unless I'm wrong.

Mr. David Johnson,

It will help your case if you post links from the wayback machine (archive.org) of the appropriate website. Posting the current days page does little for your case.

Here is a link from EQTraders for the fish oil (NOTE to dev's: recipe does not show in list until 8/1/2001, the previous 6/11/2001 date does not have the recipe listed):
https://web.archive.org/web/20010801...es_brewing.htm

fish oil: fish egg, water (trivial 68)

(not drinkable, no bottle needed on combine (just direct in barrel). Yield = 1)

The fish oil comes with a note that says:

Other than the drake egg oil (for velium leathers), we do not know the use for these oils yet. Discussion and experimentation will continue on the message boards

I searched for the Leather recipes but could NOT find anything in era. It is quite possible they were added at the time as the Fish Oil since the use for Fish Oil was not discovered. It is also possible the recipe's on Leather were not added until much, much later to fill some tradeskill gaps (which seems to be the case without evidence to support it otherwise).

I suggest asking Sorn of P99 about the Leather recipe's as he's the local tradeskill guru and probably knows where to search best.

In conclusion:
-Fish Oil should be added as a Brewing recipe with at least a 8/1/2001 timeline date (or 3/14/2001 per the below, your call).
-Leather tailoring recipes that use Fish Oil should NOT be added in unless evidence is discovered to the contrary.

EDIT:
Cross referenced patch notes, best I could find was a potential date of 3/14/2001:

- There are a ton of new recipies for trade skill users out there.
Check your books.

The reference of 'check your books' makes it seem even more unlikely that Leather recipe was implemented as Tradeskill enthusiasts would have easily been able to find the recipe that way in my opinion.

Well, It isn't exactly my case. I was trying to get it right. I have presented strong evidence. I will not pursue the matter further.
