Game Mechanics: Golden Efreeti Boots wont equip.

[Mardur]

Working as intended I presume.

From 2001:

That's because Iksars can't wear them because the boots are plate. At least the Iksar Shm, Nec and SKs have their quest boots.

From 2002:

I bought some of these this week. They used to not be usable by Iksar, but they are all/all now. WOOT!
