Taking this server to PoP would be pretty darn awesome.

It would ... even if on a 3-5 year rate per expansion

Go pottery and never look back

It's actually impossible to go to 200 on pottery on this server. I don't know what Velious introduces, but currently, the highest you can go is 188.

I was pretty sure you can get 250 here. The Idol combines are Classic I thought.

The Golden Idols obviously are not but I think those were. I don't see any reason why they couldn't be made, all of those components are sold or obtained in Kunark or Classic zones.

That post in September 2001 proves they functioned in Velious.

Now that I think about it... WTB Idol of Inny and Idol of Tunare.

If i remember correctly, it's the Celestial Essence (that is part of Unfired Idol Recipe?) that is non-classic? You can make it by combining a lot of different things but 'The Scent of Marr' is the easiest one IIRC.

I played on Fippy Darkpaw as first a master Jeweler and then I leveled up Pottery. There is a HUGE gap in terms of trivials to make these idols. I believe the Tunare one was pretty low and then all the others have crazy high trivials - most of them having a pretty massive failure chance even then.

It was also ridiculously expensive to level up as I believe it was Star Ruby Encrusted Steins? that required a 68p gem to make but sold for silvers.

FWIW idols were awesome in Fippy as they were by far the best ranged slot for... everyone with a deity.... I sold them for 10k a pop and they had a net cost of just under 3k assuming you could buy permafrost crystals, iron oxide, and find the right shamans/clerics to imbue your pebbles and you had a chanter that would make the vials.... oh yeah that's why i could charge so much. Glorious times.

Celesital Essence is Luclin. But it isn't utilized in the recipe I linked.

The GOLDEN XXXX Idols do use Celestial Essence. Not the ones I linked though.

Yes that's right. The regular idols don't use a gold bar, a celestial essence, and use a different form of crystallized mana (enchanter spell).

From what I can gather the components would be:

High Quality Firing Sheet - http://wiki.project1999.com/High_Quality_Firing_Sheet
Iron Oxide - http://wiki.project1999.com/Iron_Oxide
Permafrost Crystals - http://wiki.project1999.com/Permafrost_Crystals
White Lead - http://wiki.project1999.com/White_Lead
Water Flask (duh)
Large Block of Magic Clay - http://wiki.project1999.com/Enchant_Clay
Idol Sketch - http://wiki.project1999.com/Idol_Sketch
Sculpting Tools - http://wiki.project1999.com/Sculpting_Tools
Vial of Clear Mana - http://wiki.project1999.com/Vial_of_Clear_Mana / http://wiki.project1999.com/Clarify_Mana
Imbued Gem - http://wiki.project1999.com/Imbue_Emerald

Everything appears to be in game, so pottery should be able to GM.

[Daldaen]

All those spells are in game.

I have the Imbue Emerald on my druid.

I have the Clarify Mana and Enchant Clay on my chanter.

It is just a matter of whether the combines are active currently.

July 2001 Patch

Repaired some class/deity combinations on two of the deity specific pottery Idols.

Proves they were in before July 2001.

MAYBE was this Velious patch though?

March 2001

There are a ton of new recipes for trade skill users out there. Check your books.
