    Default Shame on Argo

    Saw this on the Auction Huose last night, and was very dissapointed to see it posted - unfortuantley I havent got a screenie cus I didnt take one at the time, and thought about it overnight, then hada look this morning, and it wasnt on the AH

    Only hope that it was removed by the devs and not bought by ome poor sod.


    Under Longswords


    'Tesyus'

    +5 Longsword, Vorpal, Pure Good, and I think it had something else on it.

    min bid 500,000 gp, buyout 1,000,000 gp ( I think - or something similar

    'Drops upon leaving of Dungeon'


    So there is a bug that allows items that normally drop when leaving a dungeon to stay in your inventory.

    But please, dont post these items on the AH and knowingly rob someone of their plat.

    Some poor sucker might buy this wihtout checking it all out (I know I have bought items I cant use due to RR in the past) and have it drop the minute he enters then leaves his next quest.

    This is plain theivery at its best, and I for one am dissapointed to see it happen here on this server.
    And on the eigth day god went for a beer.

    And on the ninth day he was still in the pub with his mates, and is going to be in big trouble when Mrs god finds him.

    yeah saw that too. I'm surprized it was even tradeable. Definately bad mojo to the person who posted it

    Its prob a leftover from before they fixed the way to take those out of the shroud. Put in a ticket and it will likely be removed, if it hasnt already.

    It already has gone, as I was going to take a screenie this morning.

    As mentioned, I hope the GM removed, rather than someone buying it out

    Wow,
    Didn't know people were bothering to go in there and take that thing out.

    I hope nobody that didn't know better wasn't suckered into buying it.

    Have seen the issued raised with other servers, and on general discussion, but would like to think that no one on this server would have been so greedy as to do it.

    I guess money (or plat) changes everyone....

    That's it! I'm not buying anymore plat from Dfghfjht or Dfhgfjth anymore!!!! There's plat farming, and then there's dirty plat farming... and I really can't support that!

    Personally IMHO what they should do Bammy is track those posts on the AH, and ban the account they were posted from. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh, but if it was someones idea of a joke to basically thumb their noise to both the Devs policy on exploiting and the reputation of the guilds they are affiliated with, then that's what they deserve.

    /agreed
    Extremely bad taste.

    Agreed. Not only did they exploit, they might well have directly harmed another player who didn't realize.

    Ditto - I could imagine someone building up a supply of plat over months, see something like this, and think WOW! I have to have this - click buy out and BOOM - all that work down the drain

    hey thanks for posting about it. I saw it too and didnt realize it was a quest only item like the von 1 ax. if the price wasnt way more then i would ever spend on an item i might have snatched it.

    I've offered names of people that I KNEW were doing it (not hard to tell, just sit in a certain place and watch - PM for more info if you'd like to be a scout), yet it fell upon deaf ears. At one time they were getting the high-value items in the Shroud part 1 and haggle-selling them to the vendors. That was equally as disgusting, because more noobs probably buy from the vendors then the AH.

    Of all the exploits/bugs, this one has been the most unnerving, due to the effect it has on other players.

    I've seen the VoN 1 Axe floating around as well. It's just a little more easily disguised than Teysus.

    Angry Tesyus

    I know this is an old post. I just did this quest with my pally to get a good sword for her. I dindnt know this sword is removed from invent. after finishing. Grr died first time and got it done second time. So no way to get it. So i have to buy some kind of from AH or wait until i got to lvl 14 to make holy swords.

    And just to keep the thread going, I'd gladly pay 100k plat for the sword. I know I can never use it in a quest, but I'd just toss it in the bank and smile to myself knowing that I have a true collector's item.

    I've wished that I could take the sword out of that quest ever since I first laid eyes on it. I suppose I should have wished that I could take the sword out of the quest and actually use it in other quests since this is the Tesyus-wish-fulfilment thread....
