pssst ..... OD .... ummm, hate to break it to ya ..... it's not real

[Omega_Destroyer]

PWNED again.

[winterfate]

@Omega: That's ok!

It's real if you believe it is.

Once I win that Vial, I will have a steady supply of Mercury!

And isn't it kind of silly how much that clover is going for?

[asandir]

maybe, but luck in H3 is a real killer!

@HP we know it doesn't grant a morale bonus, but that's the category the artifact is listed in

Surcoat of Counterpoise, Major, Torso - HP 3333

Oh, it's the category. The category of the Surcoat of Counterpoise is Major, Shoulders. So I was wondering if that should be corrected.

It's real if you believe it is.

I do believe, I do believe, I do believe!!!

Against my better judgement:

… 2,265

I'm taking the categories from this page ....

The Torso/Shoulder error is documented on that page too. In the game, the Surcoat goes in the Shoulder slot.

The official description says:

• Surcoat of Counterpoise
  Class: Major.
  Worn about the shoulders, this item increases your magic resistance by 10%.
  "You've come upon a fight between a Necromancer and a Paladin. The Necromancer blasts the Paladin with a fire bolt, bringing him to his knees. Acting quickly, you slay the evil one before the final blow. The grateful Paladin gives you the armor that saved him."

I would then question why this site still has it listed there?

but I could change it if you really like

As CloudRiderX explains in his own words:

• Yeah, I realized that some had multiple texts, but I'm not gonna bother.

For accuracy sake and desirability, it would be nice to have the Surcoat of Counterpoise artifact listed in its right category.

[asandir]

[HodgePodge]

Hey Oak, with your bids, you have already spent 21,200 of your 35,000 and it's only the first lot of artifacts.

Everpouring Vial of Mercury: 2400

[asandir]

HP has raised a question about cash limits and high seeming bids and the fact that only 455,000 of the million GP has been allocated, so here is my answer.

each current player has 35,000 GP to spend on the entire auction, not per lot! The reason behind this is that there may very well be new players joining later, so I need to leave some room in the salary cap, plus there is provision for some bonus cash (as per Gravy's auction) at various times, but this depends on a number of factors - I am anticipating that by the end we will get close to a million GP spent, but we'll probably go a little under, which isn't a big deal

so a small warning, don't spend all you've got, all at once
