Title: Selling Body Parts
Post by: Zippy the Wonderbat on January 31, 2007, 05:17:20 pm: Hi All:

Thanks for the great answers on my newbie questions previously, I've got one other.

I've finally found the person to sell body parts to, but she does not want my rat hides. Can rat hides be sold? If not, are they used for something else?

Thanks....Zippy the Wonderbat

Ps. I thought this was in Hydlaa Plaza first. I was like "Ahhh! Selling body parts? Thats disgusting!"

Ummm.... Perhaps I should have said "Monster Body Parts".

Thanks.....Z the W

Seriously now .. hides are sold to tanners and they will probably be used to make leather, etc. in the future but not quite yet. They can be sold to NPC merchants though.

To sell hides, don't think so.

Wait... sell hides? What're you talking about?

Whether that is true or not, well, someone can simply go in game and test that out.

No, you cannot make things with the rat hide at the moment. However, yes you can sell them for trais. Where can you sell them you ask? Well that is for you to find out and explore in game. Just ask those around you. Something to the effect of "Hello, I am new to these parts. Could one of you strangers tell me where I can sell my rat hides?"

:) Usually people in game are very helpful if you are polite. We don't give hints on the forums and would prefer that the players find out for themselves in game. Good luck to you.
