It would be nice to be able to quickly know if you had a "Lore" item without manually searching thru your bank.

This could be done im sure. The macro would open up all your bags and find all of them ,then echo the results in mq window. I just dont know how to make it search for lore ??

Use Item.ID to compare your bank/inventory against the lore item. If Item.ID already exists, then you know you have said Lore Item.

I was thinking that since you can't have more than one "Lore" maybe there is a way to use that to tell if you already had one without actually finding it.

So for instance I read on RG that "Super Cloak of Haste" has a great clicky for Ranga's. I look on Allah and see I need 3 lore items to turn in to get this item. Then I log on my toon and type /FindLore item#1 and I get the response "You can only have one lore item". Now I know I have it and will go to the bank to find it...

1. Can this be aliased to allow me to use it from chat window or does it have to be in macro?

2. Can this be done from anywhere or do I need to be at a banker?

Well, I guess that since you *can* view your bank from anywhere, this could conceivably be done via plugin from anywhere.

Well you could create a plugin based on a little known in game command that has always exsisted.


/outputfile inventory (filename).txt

It will create a plain-text file in your main EQ directory that contains a complete listing of all the gear you are (a) Wearing, (b) Carrying, (c) Have Stored in the Bank.

It is invaluable for:
(a) Being able to check if you have a particular drop or item in your bank from ANYWHERE in the game (you can use this command at any time in any zone)
(b) Finding that item you know you have somehwere but cannot find (simply open teh file in any text-editor and do a find/search for a partial string that matches the item you are trying to find - Hey Presto, you can see it is in Slot 4 of Bank-Container 3.

You can use ${FindItemBankCount[=ItemName]} to locate anything in your bank - anywhere and ${FindItemCount[=ItemName]} to locate something in your inventory. Remove the Count part to return a string name.

The contents of your bank are stored in memory. For those suggesting making this a plugin, the functionality already exists through macros.

Hrmm, Cobalt you know you just gave me a good idea. I just need to figure out how to modify the link window from a plugin!
