Merchants: Rogue poison merchants missing

[kanras]

This is the original poison book that was sold on vendors: http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=19267

From this safehouse guide, last updated 04/2000, you can see it is still the only poison book being sold in-game: http://www.thesafehouse.org/forums/s...ead.php?t=2837

You can see the book vendors were one of the last sections updated, as it included a kunark vendor, which had just recently been released.

In this 06/2000 patch, the new books and recipes were added: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.g...41ce11b17e69ac

Many new recipes for the "Make Poison" skill are now in game. Features
include: Several new poison books, stackable components, new suspensions,
some purchasable components, and players now have the ability to purchase
vials. Please check your vendors.

You can see from this site which books contained which recipes: http://teir-dal.tripod.com/id41.html The originals are at the top, and then the newer books are listed below.

It was a mistake to remove Gindlin Toxfodder. The correct fix in that regard was to just remove the components he sold. That's been fixed, pending update. The other vendors and the removed components will be back when timeline-appropriate.
