Dwarven smithy in SM, there's a set of 'Glacial Scale Mail' that actually seems to be a splint mail (AC 6, dex bonus 0, ac penalty -7 etc)

Bump request for adding mw breastplates, a +1 version of breastplate, and perhaps a sylvan version of breastplate as well (not likely I'll be purchasing them, but seems odd that there are many nicer versions of various types of armor except breastplates)

Few things i've discovered:

1. When you throw axes on trolls over the bridge in Silverwood, they do not cross the bridge, they just stand there doing nothing waiting to be killed.


2. In Silvermoon / Optym Blade , merchant says 10 axes go for 5 GP , but actually he takes only 1 GP for them.

3. Shadow sword thieves quest - Could not find any mobs in the house for few RL days. (And yes, with the cloak and the head dress).

That's called an exploit of the AI, and you will be smacked down if we catch you at it.

That is a peculiarity of the way the game engine prices out thrown weapons and ammunition. The price you pay should be correct.

That particular quest has been known to go bad on a regular basis. Try it again after a server reset, but no guarantees.

Yes, when you take into account that 50 axes elsewhere go for 5gp (and the merchant DOES take 5gp, thanks to whoever fixed that script), 10 for the 1gp you get charged is correct.

Standard Illusion class reward gives scrolls of Blindness/Deafness rather than Color Spray as per dialog. (btw I could not have completed this class without the tip from acadius to log out and back in; apparently it's fairly common to get stuck inside a wall/walkmesh during this class, and it's very hard to tell when it occurs that that's what's happening due to the specific nature of the illusions :( )

Standard Transmution class: upon completion and dialog with instructor, he explicitly states he will take the finished product, but it remains in inventory.

5b Frost hills road

The place where the goblins reside is unreachable, except for travelling under the water, which they do to attack. There is a walkmesh that crosses from one side of the lake to the other.

5b Frost Hills North

The replacment suspension bridge has no walkmesh, and you walk straight through it and almost over the side.

Scratch this bug, the bridge is difficult to get started on, the entry is easy to miss, and it makes it look like it dosnt work.

The scrolls at the collage are not useable. I (Audra) bought at least 4 and the only options were to examine or drop. I have several scrolls from the same scribe I bought a few weeks ago and those ones are useable.

You may want to run worldgate and try again. Many of the scrolls use new itemproperties which were unavailable before the hak update of last night. The update should only take a moment, as it was all 2da and tlk changes.
