EQMac's version of PoM vs. Classic PoM - it appears that, for whatever reasons, EQMac likely had a slightly different version of PoM combines. Witness the combine for the Tundra mask on EQMac vs. the Globe of Darkness on ClassicLive. I'm not sure if there is an explanation, or a way to figure out what's going on, but it's clear that some combines on EQMac indicate some differences.

Not sure how it may apply to this particular item, but it is worth mentioning. Although I'm REALLY hoping to prove some EQMac combines are classic so we can get them on P99.

The Tundra mask replaced the globe of darkness in 2012 on EQMac. The mac dedicated dev "fixed" some of the combines.

From a thread on Mac boards.
I've been able to find a 2003 post about using WoW + Top Left to make Funny Money, which provides some indication that it wasn't solely an EQ Mac combine. But there were several intervening PoM modifications between release and 2003 when the post was made.

This still works, however, it is an incredible pain in the ass, simply combine, in a pot of gold, a complete Words of Wealth with a Words of Wealth: Top Left Corner for a funny money.

Also, Library Cards do not (or if they do, its incredibly rare, as I've been bound there for 6 months) drop off any creature in the zone, but only on the Chessboard, and more rarely in AiWL. Chessboard can be pulled fairly easily with Wake of Tranquility, just watch for the pit traps and bad pathing.

Also, the doll is not no drop, so you can buy it (thats what i did for my BP).

There is also evidence of other sweeping changes in 2003 on live, including Peach D'Vicci no longer spawning in October. She is directly related to the quest.

As of 2007 on EQmac Peachy still required 4 funny money, does anyone know the date it was changed to 2?

I can't find any reference to this quest ever requiring 4 funny moneys. Here's a 2001 post from a PoM ezboard claiming it was 2 moneys then:

That was later changed I believe. Originally it started off as 4 FM's:

Quote:
Now talk to Bob the Painter and he will hand you a Pot of Gold, a two slot container. Place your Words of Wealth and any item you obtained from the Deck of Spontaneous Generation quests in the Pot of Gold and hit combine. You will be rewarded with Funny Money. If you run over and hand Peachy four of these Funny Moneys you will receive a colored gift box. Each colored box represents a different class in the game, such as the Blue Gift Box is for Magicians. This box comes with five charges, each of which will summon a doll. Now take the doll and combine it with one of the pieces of the Armor of Distraction and you'll receive your class specific doll quest armor.

Looks like it's the other way around. It was 2 moneys when the zone launched and was changed to 4 in 2003:

Give Peachy D'Vicci four funny money (this has been two in the past, but is FOUR now) and she'll give you a random Gift Box

Lots/all of the PoM armor was originally droppable for some months...

Cards and gift boxes are still droppable, so we will probably leave it as is.

Will most likely stick to 2 funny money. Consider it balancing/compromising for not allowing the words of wealth: top left combine and keeping some semblance of transparent risk/time vs reward.

Fantastic. 2 FM's would be ideal
