    So I actually have a problem with whatever this is.

    1. Why does Shandy Chapman have it?
    2. If it's powerful, why does it only cost 2k?
    3. If it's a joke, why do I need to spend 2k?
    4. If I buy it and it's not powerful, then why would I ever buy anything from Shandy Chapman again?
    5. If I buy it and it's super powerful, why wouldn't everyone run out to Shandy Chapman and buy as many as they could?
    6. I can't see what I'm actually buying. No description, no stats.
    7. I'm guessing this thing actually works very similar if not exactly like a Fire Potion and it's essentially a reuse of the exact same assets we already have. Which is fine when you're creating a placeholder but not so good years later when we're supposed to be optimizing.

    This is why I can't wait for the final wipe, at least then I'll be able to feel like being stuck in a random scene with Shandy Chapman debating if I should buy any of his worthless junk will be meaningful.

    Alternatively I wish this thing would blow up an oracle confirmation chamber and make it unusable for several hours. :)

    It's so that when you have to zone two extra times when running to Ardoris you can at least say you got something that sounds impressive.

    Ugh. Thanks for filling me in.

    It would be a lot cooler if we had more stuff in-game. Sometimes I feel like we have twice as much of this crap as we do basic stuff like robes.

    The coconut mount, horse head, corpion references.... it's really not my thing. It's like a giant pool of wasted development hours and poor jokes. All this stuff is really the same sense of humor, "Here's the joke" + "I get it" = "Ha ha"

    It's like kindergarten humor. It's funny only because it's clearly made in jest. Like how did the chicken cross the road funny.

    Ha, didn't even bother to check the link. That's too funny. Just saw the shape and the name, and said to myself, the number of the counting shall be 3. 4 Shalt though not count... yada yada.

    Now I just realized the coconuts. I'm so dense.

    I'm going to write a book of armaments, and scatter them across the land.

    I would like to request more sillery and tomfoolery tucked away as tiny easter eggs, such as this, please.

    I remember that item. Surprised it's still sitting in game considering that it was part of the killer bunny quest in the spectral mines. That was over with a long time ago.

    I don't mind tomfoolery as long as it doesn't impede gameplay. I absolutely believe we need better stats and item descriptions on seller inventory, though.

    This needs to be able to be placed as decoration if we're going to continue having it in the game. :D

    Also, make a more interesting way to get it rather than purchasing it off of Shandy Chapman's inventory.
