Re: Pets equipping no trade gear
I did some more testing so you don't have to hand your items in fear to a Lv 1 orc pawn and see them get eaten:
--You can hand in as many items as you want (I didn't try more than 3 at a time just in case the mobs have a limit on how many items they can hold - if they're like normal pets, there is no limit but I really don't wanna test that)
--You can only hand in ONE item for each slot at a time. IE. You cannot give a charmed mob two illusion masks or two raid bracers at once; if you try - the mob will simply reject the second item and you get it back on your cursor. This is identical to how the code works on normal summoned pets.
--Newbie zone mobs are great for this method. However, if you are trying to transfer weapons, the mob's inherent class/level somewhat dictates what it will take. Ex. A drake in GFay will not take Monk H2H (Arx Mentis T3) or a Caster crude defiant club (Rec. Lv 10). However, a bee standing 10 ft from it will take both at once (and you get both back). I do not know enough about pet weapon rules to determine what the code actually is but like Shadetree said earlier, try a different level mob OR I recommend trying a different *type* of mob altogether if you're having issues. I also tested this with some 2HB weapons. Again, the drake in my earlier example would not take a 2HB at all but a wolf next to it would.
--The item *must* have an equippable slot tag. You cannot transfer quest items, raid currency, or any other item that does not fit in *some* slot. This follows the new, normal pet rules unfortunately.
--You *can* hand an augment that is not in a piece of gear to the mob. I tested this by handing a Frozen Orb of the Fabled King to a wolf; he accepted the aug without being in an item and I was able to recover it. However, after more testing... like weapons... it seems that some mobs will, and some won't, take it.
--You *can* hand ornaments to a mob straight up. However, you cannot hand in epic augments (from An Epic Request). Perhaps if you found a mob of the exact class, but I didn't care enough to run around looking for Enchanter mobs.
--And despite the in-game warning about it being destroyed, I still have not had a single transfer eat an augment if it was already in an item.
Hopefully this will answer some questions and prevent others from wasting too much time.
Look at the top of the thread.
