A compendium of items which were briefly obtainable in ones adventures, but which were never seen again. More often than not they were deemed overly powerful or game changing by the forces that be, and so were removed. In some cases the change was retroactive, but typically not, making these items some of the most sought after in the game.
Pre-Kunark
No Drop
Kunark
- Totem of the Wizened Spirits - no longer drops, replaced by the Totem of the Warrior Spirit.
- Gem Encrusted Ring - no longer drops.
- Locket of Escape - allowed any class, including melee, to bind anywhere that a caster could normally bind themselves. Particularly useful for binding in the Timorous Deep firepot room, as well as in the Plane of Mischief. Removed from the game a few days after the release of Kunark.
Weapons
- Warding Star - no longer drops, replaced with the Guardians Mace.
- Ringed Mace of the Ykesha - no longer drops.
- Brokenskull Club - no longer drops.
- Polyphenomenal Axe - no longer drops.
- Ton Po's Bo Stick of Understanding - never actually dropped on either p1999 or live, only acquired during beta or from GM events.
The Future
- Fungus Covered Great Staff - originally this right-click group-targetable Fungal Regrowth effect could be cast by anyone from an inventory slot. Especially powerful for Necromancers, among others, new versions of the staff were changed to require it be equipped to cast - in effect, making it usable by only Druids and Shamans.
- Robe of Living Fungus - the regeneration effect on the robe was removed retroactively approximately six weeks after the release of Kunark. The only worn Fungal Regrowth armor then becomes the Fungus Covered Scale Tunic.
- Circlet of Shadow - the instant cast invis coupled with Feign Death enables some rather powerful strategies. Replaced with the Circlet of Shadows with a five second cast time. Changed occurs ~6 months after Velious release.
- Earring of Grachnist
Weapons
- Rod of Mourning - 29/36 two hand blunt eventually replaced by the 25/36 Rod of Lamentation.
- Runed Fighters Staff - the damage/delay ratio coupled with the low delay and 2H damage bonus was deemed overly powerful, particularly in the hands of monks. Replaced with the Imbued Fighters Staff which doubles both the damage and delay.
- Blade of the Black Dragon Eye - deemed too powerful to drop from reets in Old Sebilis. Moved to Veeshan's Peak and replaced in Seb with the Blade of the Green Dragon Eye.
- Mosscovered Twig
- Rod of Annihilation
- Barbed Scale Whip - similar to the twig this 4/11 weapon is extremely powerful with the main hand damage bonus. Originally PRI/SEC, nerfed to offhand only and the drop was replaced with a 8/22 whip named?
