Obviously the same applies to Genni in Sol ro temple for fire opals [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] 550gp. i did try handing her 55p, no go. Hell, i even tried handing her 550gp, taking the fire opal, and then killing her to see if i got my 550gp back :3 i'm a dark elf! evil is what i do.

Unfortunately a lot of players will fall into traps like this, you can only hope that the losses will be minimal... losing 300p is nothing compared to losing an AC ring that can take hours and hours to camp.

Who the hell would use live Allakhazam as a definitive reference for classic EQ? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I did the quest once on live. I remember taking him gold. Reminded me of the scarab armor quests where you specifically had to bring gold, since it's what the quest giver asked for.

if you knew anything about classic, you would have brought some gold. This is not a server that has 2009 Jboots.

I'm not here to ask for anything other than some type of reasonable warning that the quest i remember and is well documented as i remember it, doesnt fit into the dev's idea of 'classic'.

you remember it wrong. he wanted gold through at least kunark, and possibly velious.

move along, spoonfed wowtard.

LOL thanks for not dissapointing me.

These are exactly the responses i expected.

I never once asked for redemption of any kind, just a pointer towards the MINOR variations between what i remember and what is.

Thank you for being exactly as i expected...

i have a tip for you ... talk to the NPC and see what he wants, rather then trust allakhazam to know it all ...

none of the quests are misleading, it is the quest descriptions on allakhazam that are misleading ... but if you would just talk to the NPCs before handing stuff like that in, such things would never happen [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

verbatum hasten says "3250 gold" and any backup found on allakhazam that has been posted supporting the Platinum theory is not dated 1999.

move along.

Nothing is dated 1999 on Allakhazam since Allakhazam wasn't around in 1999.

thanks for making my point?

here's what just happened -

Azeth: No one knows what a T-rex would really look like, because they're not alive anymore.

Reiker: No kidding they're not alive anymore, they died out 65 million years ago.
