*sigh* i just finished reading about the white dragon scale that drops off of scalekeeper/gore/vox, and i found that forum to be nothing but a huge mess between bards arguing that simply because they need the white scale for their epic quest that they should have it, and casters claiming they needed it for a cloak quest. bards shouting that casters are greedy, and casters saying bards suck. now the same thing here. i just dont understand what is so horrible about some other class having the item even though someone else somewhere might need it also. A wizard posted above that if you have the ability to cast "Levitate", then you shouldnt be looting this cloak. However Levitate costs two batwings and the spell itself does not last long at all. Also not everclass has the ability to cast the spell. That same wizard wrote:
"But I would like to give a nice hearty F%@$ You to all you cack suckers that kill this thing for the cloak that aren't mages."
what about warriors? pladins? rogues? shadowknights (until later levels)? Beastlords? Rangers? even mages themselves could utilize this cloak for the levitation aspect until they were able to make levi rings. How would you like it if i told you that you couldnt wear that Chalice of Kings because i needed it for MY epic quest? or if i told any of you that you couldnt wear (this one applying to most of the EQ population) that ring of the ancients because i wanted it for MY jboots quest? sounds a little rude does it not? Need that white dragonscale for your white dragonscale cloak (AC+10 Wis+9 Int+9 Cold Resist+25 Mana+75 )?-too bad i get first dibs on it for my bard epic. thats how these posts are starting to sound. I will admit however that the mage that came across a druid killing Q right in front of him and tried to sell a MQ before it was looted-that was a tad on the greedy side. but when it comes down to the line, the fact still remains: What does your epic mean to me? or even what does my epic mean to you? the answer remains the same- to me: its just another item for you. to you its just another item for me.
