Question - Linking any item in the game?

[Ubiquitous]

I know there's ways of making hotkeys with links, fake links, etc., but Elidroth posted this:

If you know how to do it, you can link any item in our DB without ever having seen it.

So, would anyone know "how to do it" by chance? I'd love to find old artifact items and pop some tops

go to the bazaar in the barter section open up the menu there and you can search for any tradable item as long as one is on the server(or has been).
on FV thats every item because everything is tradable. (and you can cross server link)

there is the way i've always linked items i don't have. you might need to update the pattern since it might be out of date but over all it should work

Awesome, thanks! I was hoping to be able to link *any* item, even no drop ones by altering the code in hotkeys, but this works just as fine since I'm looking for the tradable stuff anyway. lol

yea, i need to update that macro snipit to handle item ids that are larger than X and augs.. but for the most part it works..

if you can understand how the snipit does it then you should be able to place any item, even no-drop ones or ones that you couldn't get except by being a GM... just a matter of changing the number values
