Welcome to Redguides, Inn! One of things that you'll learn is that when something cool is found and shared, it doesn't take long for it to get the axe from SOE. I've actually missed out on a couple things just cause I didn't check in here for a few hours and they did an emergency patch that nerfed it. The big thing nowadays is using MQ2 to help enhance your game, and believe me, it does. RG is worth it for that alone. The big goodies like finding an NPC who will un-attune an item, if it is posted here, get killed quick. SOE has accounts and keeps tabs here too. So the big thing is to just keep your head up and eyes and ears open. When the sweet stuff gets posted, jump on it like white on rice, cause it won't last. The trading no-drop stuff got the axe a while back, but every now and then someone will very generously post that they have found a "magic" NPC. Have to remember that this is a site that is driven by players who get together and share their secrets. Even the MQ2 pre-compiles are not something done by RG employees, but by community members who generously give their own time to make that for all of us.
Again, welcome to what I like to refer to as the "Asylum."
