This was yesterday tho. But a guy in kamadan gave away xp scrolls,so I thought since Im gonna get my ls title via vaettir farm or kilroy dungeon that any scrolls would come in handy.
But it turned out he gave me around 200scrolls.
I was so happy.

I find it impressive that you found 2 q8 foci in a short period of time and they both had the same single mod.

I'm surprised none of the Germans pointed out in that old thread, that there's a grammar mistake in that weapon's name.

I don't speak German, but if that's true it's the funniest fail I have seen in years. Can you translate please? With and without the error.

It says 'des Verteidigung' and 'des' is the article for a neutral noun.
But 'Verteidigung', which means 'Defense', is a masculine noun.
The weapon's name should be 'Schock-Schlangen-Axt der Verteidigung'.

Edit: I wanna note though that this post was from 2006 and in consideration that games still need 2 years nowadays to get our language right (if you pay attention you can still find some mistakes today) it could be possible, that this mispelling was part of the game. Maybe someone knows more^^

not sure how weapon names looked back then but the correct name should (at least these days, and i haven't noticed any changes in how items are named since ive been playing) be
'Schock--Schlangen-Axt d. Verteidigung'
so yeah seems pretty fake

Y, you are right. But the fact noone even mentioned it should be d. is imo an indication that there were changes to the german language package.

Edit: Checked 2005 Wartower Threads and back then the d. for der/die/das was already implemented.

Looks fake to me. And a poor one.
1. There is nothing in the background of the weapon's picture.
2. There would be at least the edge of an inventory window visible somewhere. Even if it was in the right hand side of an inventory window, there would be a grey vertical line on the left hand side inside the background of the shot.
3. If it was shown in a trade window the rest of the trade window would be visible behind it.
4. The question marks around the grammar (!)
5. The bottom section is missing... Perhaps just careless cut 'n paste, but likely because it was a simpler fake without it.
6. If it was a shot of an active weaponset, there would be other markings - terrain, party window, something, in the background.
That said, I would love it to be real...

Ok, nobody can trust Yoji any more. Those fakes are very good actually.
That's how you fake stuff.

Yoji, you may have +1 internet point.

I can't help but point out that dual reduction shields (triple reduction in the case of the outcast?) are Tyrian only, and always have a stance mod but the other three stand up to scrutiny. Apart from the impossibility of course...

Also the gold values dont match up!
For gold weapons and shields it makes jumps of 4, eg 100->104....->200 etc
It will never be able to get 666 ^^
But it'd be cool if they were real!
