Okay, here is my beef with harvested trap items, they weigh too much! I know you think that sounds rediculous, but I weigh everything I have on me, because I am a gnome, and every stone counts. Now look at this, a tiny bronze face weighs 5 stones, a darkened steel stiletto weighs only eight. Now if you take into account that steel weighs more than bronze the tiny bronze face would literally have to be the size of a gnome face to weigh 5 stones! Now gnomes are pretty tiny themselves, but I'd imagine a tiny face on a box would be smaller but that is not a tiny face at all! Even the trap components you would think to weigh nothing at all weigh disproportionally. A spring would have to be several feet long to weigh 5 stones! Most gems weigh less than a stone, so why do trap components weigh so much more? It's rediculous.

Simple answer: they're made out of herbs.

Real, helpful answer: I don't know.. that's a really good question... Now I'm gonna be obsessed with weighing all of my components...

Sell em off as fast as possible, or just toss them away.

Excuse my ignorance, because I haven't been around since disarm 2 came out, but are there other cities where they can be sold besides the Crossing?

>>Yes.

Hrmm. I guess I deserved that. Would anyone mind telling me where they are? I don't see it being a big secret. I'm in Ratha now, and I have a guess where it may be, but I would prefer not to pay lift fees to find out.

I still think a system similar to gem pouches needs to be implemented for components.. and i also feel their weight really and truly needs to be readjusted. 4 springs from a trap weigh as much as my broadsword? Somehow.. even with the fact that this is a fantasy world.. that comparison seems way beyond the description of the term "fantasy" and soaring at mach speeds of high multiples to the exponential number 7 into a realm that is just plain wrong.
