Tradeskill Trophies

The first of these trophies were introduced into the game on May 8, and are used to symbolize a dedicated (or is that demented?) tradeskiller. The mounted gems and the artisan's seal are tradeable. Most of the final trophies are primary/secondary/ranged/ammo, LORE, NO DROP, STR 10, CHA 50, INT 10, WIS 10 items, with 5% skill modifier. The poison making trophy has an additional 10 DEX, while the alchemy trophy has 15 WIS but no INT. The trophies also have an effect of summon: grandmaster's satchel.(10-slot, giant capacity, 100% weight reduction bag, no rent, no drop) (Due to the droppable status of the gems and the artisan's seal, you can get a potter and jeweler to make the first parts for you, but you must complete the final combine in order to obtain one of these items.)

August 16 update: hand Jolum one of your summoned grandmaster satchels to receive a no drop, lore, weight 1.2, Grandmaster's Carry All (this upgraded bag is NOT no-rent, making it a much safer place to store valuable tradeskill items). Should you delete/lose this bag, you can always hand him another summoned satchel to receive a replacement.

NOTE: only if you made a trophy before June 12, hail Jolum on the second floor of the main building of the Bazaar to learn how to upgrade your old trophy (not lore, no effect, no skill modifier) to the new trophy. Appropriate text details are below ... again, this is only on trophies made before June 12, which is when the trophy was changed. If you made your trophy after June 12, 2002, your trophy is already the "upgraded" one. Again, I repeat, since the first line has been missed and re-asked repeatedly, ONLY if you made your trophy BEFORE June 12, can it be "upgraded" to the one that folks have made since that date.

Hail text from Jolum:

You say, 'what upgrade'
Jolum says 'What Grandmaster Trade item would you like to know how to upgrade? I can tell you how to upgrade your [Grandmaster Baker's Spoon], [Grandmaster Brewer's Corker], [Grandmaster Fletcher's Knife], [Grandmaster Jeweler's Eyeglass], [Grandmaster Potter's Sculpter], [Grandmaster Smith's Hammer], [Grandmaster Tailor's Needle], or your [Grandmaster Tinker's Spanner]. While you can't have more than one of the new items, they will summon a bag for you. Very useful for carrying heavy items about and such.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Jeweler's Eyeglass'

Jolum says 'Jewelcraft is more your speed then, is it? In a jewelers kit, combine a glass shard, a silver bar, with your old Grandmaster Jeweler's Eyeglass and your old Eyeglass will be a new Eyeglass.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Baker's Spoon'
Jolum says 'To upgrade your Grandmaster Baker's Spoon, simply combine your old spoon in an oven with a mixing spoon and you should get a new Grandmaster Baker's Spoon in return.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Brewer's Corker'
Jolum says 'For a new and improved Grandmaster Brewer's Corker combine your old Brewer's Corker with a corking device and, viola! You have a new Grandmaster Brewer's Corker.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Fletcher's Knife'
Jolum says 'Ahh, a fletcher are you? Well in your fletching kit combine your Grandmaster Fletcher's Knife with a Fishbone Dart tool and you will have made yourself a new Grandmaster Fletcher's Knife.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Potter's Sculpter'
Jolum chuckles. 'So you like to work with clay do you? Well in a kiln combine, with your Grandmaster Potter's Sculpter, a set of Sculpting Tools and you'll have a new and better Sculpter for your leisure.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Smith's Hammer'
Jolum eyes you for a moment. 'Yes, you have a blacksmith's arms. If you'd like to upgrade your Grandmaster Smith's hammer, simply bang on it in a forge with a mundane Smithy Hammer.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Tailor's Needle'
Jolum says 'Oh, so you are a tailor? Perhaps I'll see you about this hole in my robe. In the meantime, to change your Grandmaster Tailor's Needle combine it with an Embroidering Needle in your sewing kit.'

You say, 'Grandmaster Tinker's Spanner'
Jolum says 'You tinker? I happen to dabble with that a little bit myself. Well that is neither here nor there. If you'd like a new Grandmaster Tinker's Spanner, combine your old spanner with some metal bits and a sharpening stone.'
