Miscellaneous: Missing Item: Blood of Dragonkind

[Baugi]

Neat find. It can't be vendored and it has a cast time of 8.0s according to Lucy, but it wasn't entered until 2005. Magelo claims added on 10/22/01 and instant cast so maybe nerfed later -

I wonder how long it actually survived on the loot table though. A lot of those items had been completely revamped before the end of Velious. For example -

Blydreln's Bane -

Had been altered (presumably to the current stats) by Aug 12 2001 according to the alla comment section -

The +20str should make up for not using a 2HS

Belt of the Destroyer -

first let me say this item has been upgraded, haste is like 50% or more, 15more ac, more hps, more wis/int

(ignore the bit about haste, they were confused and it was a hidden stat to be fair)

ect.

I think most of the relevant item changes happened ~June/July 2001 so I imagine it was removed from the loot table then.

As we all know, many of the items were upgraded today. North ToV loot finally got the upgrades we all knew were coming.

Yeah those have pretty much all of the pre-buff items, they even have info on Doze 1.0 which p99 has never had (to my knowledge)

Would be cool to get the original, harder, blue dragon version of Doze on a future server.
