smart loot! i was unaware of this. i thought everything was just complete random until i started to see discrepancies. thanks for the percentages and so on. I guess they try to get people to interact more this way.

I used to buy and sell in the bazaar in eq1 too. I somehow managed to amass 400k before i left years ago. don't have time to play the virtual eq market these days but i will do as suggested and stockpile my 70+ spells and contact a raiding guild i'm familiar with when the bank reaches critical mass.
