your proof is also solely speculation on forums, most of which is pure he said she said back channel stuff, no one with the actual gloves comes forth and talks about them...


at least mine makes sense for why it would be confused with the other gloves, it makes zero sense that VS would drop the Vibrating Gloves or Hammer and makes even less sense that the Shissar gloves would turn into Vibrating Gloves which could never be reverted back to caster gloves lol

"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."

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

"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?
