Can we make these untradeable on AH or otherwise more obviously distinguishable. The above picture has a legit wave sweeper and a "fake" wavesweeper. You literally can't tell the difference unless you hover over the "fake" and see the description. The "fakes" are for a quest and really don't need to be permitted on the auction house.

I understand that users should be wise enough to read the description, but mistakes happen and there is literally no purpose in putting these on auction house except to scam.

    This was reported yesterday in the Bug/Glitch section. forums.mabinogi.nexon.net/discussion/18112/wave-sweeper-in-auction-house-g12-ark-artifact

    Hopefully it can be adjusted or removed from AH.

    Just in general things like this and the ability to post used skillbooks is just asking for problems where there don't need to be any.

    No no, it's good you made a suggestions thread. ^^

    I hate seeing used skill books for sale. I wish they weren't sellable or tradable after being used.

    I think the quest item should be renamed or changed into another item entirely, but making it untradeable is not the correct solution. It seems no different than other tradeable quest items like the clay flute and dorcha crystals.

    There should be an indicator for skill books, if the seal is not broken, it's tradeable and once the seal is broken not tradeable just like they do at some universities.

    HA!

    Most of 'em do though, and it'll say 'this item is no longer usable' in red text at the bottom when previewed, but if it didn't sell, people wouldn't post 'em...

    Same with people selling NPC manuals/Equipment Appearance Recovery Scrolls (well, not anymore with this event LOL) for more than their purchase price. It's not like it's not allowed, but... you know you're exploiting people.
